Stories of Aincrad [OOC]

The only black swordsman Lios would have trouble against would be Guts.

(Image)

Kirito would be piss easy for Lios to defeat.
Let's remember that Kirito only killed people three times and felt so bad about it that he needed to cry it out for an entire season.
Not again considering the level gap between the two.

Kirito is a boy, Guts is a mercenary. It's obvious that there would be a big difference between the two.

That far I know.
But in this world, Charlia tells me that Noblemind could defeat Lios.
No, it's just not possible, Lios is a battle hardened champion duelist that handled just about any battle.

Now, I wouldn't call it impossible she'd defeat Kirito, even in his SAO arc into which he's the most untouchable.
Noblemind could easily overpower Kirito, from the stance that she doesn't care anymore.

However, Lios would have serious trouble against Guts who is not only a mercenary but doesn't care either, killing is what he does for a living just like Lios.
It'd either end on a draw for the both of them or Guts winning.
The matchup is extremely bad for Lios as he is mostly a speed based fighter.
He's a glass cannon in the real world.

Not necessarily. What's most important in this game is the neuronal speed of the player's brain, and the knowledge of the sword skills. That was how Asuna, a girl who never touched a sword in her life, managed to become one of the best players in SAO. MMORPG factors must also be considered; a high leveled player mostly can't be defeated by weaker leveled players. It's about the skills and the level.

Now, since Lios is a duelist champion, he will indeed have an advantage. But not one that big as to make it impossible for Noblemind to defeat him.

Well the thing is, fighting against a rapier with a single edged sword is actually useful.
And since Lios's sword has holes against the flat of blade to made it easier to pull out, he can even take Charlotte's rapier and break it using this, it wouldn't be much of a stretch.

But even when taking Alrick out of the equation, the skill, normal speed and weapon knowledge Lios possesses far exceeds Noblemind's.
That's why I'm saying it'd be near impossible and also why he mocks her so much.
Not only has he suffered through training just as if not worse than Charlotte's life, but he also has the experience of actually killing someone without breaking down in the middle of the fight.

When you fight Lios it's basically as if you were fighting a highly intelligent animal with a sword.
Think Sif from Dark Souls but smaller and way worse.

[Sindrya]

So, by that, you mean that the only character you would have troubles with is Zai?

Cause he was based off my own interpretation of Guts.

And before I forget, #GutsBestBlackSwordsman

Yes, if he has the same level of GLORIOUS RAGE and DETERMINATION.

Not sure about rage, but they do both lead the Strug Life.

The only black swordsman Lios would have trouble against would be Guts.

Kirito is a boy, Guts is a mercenary. It's obvious that there would be a big difference between the two.

Which explains Kirito's wimpy behavior and Guts' tough-as-nails character.

Guts has gotten used to killing, if he even exists in SAO Universe, the whole ordeal would be a "same shit, different day" kind of thing for him.

Kirito, on the other hand, is a gaming-addict kind of boy who came from a rich background that has never exposed to any hardships. He took games as something virtual, "if you kill someone in a game, they'll continue to live, don't sweat it" was his mindset. When he was pressured in a situation that forced him to face the fact that in this game, it is "kill or be killed, and it's for real", he broke down.

Lios: "Just take those white, friendliness pellets."
*Walks into it*

While on the other hand, using the rapier, Noblemind will be much faster, and it will also be a matter of sword skills. It will ultimately depend on a lot of factors, but I don't think that it would be really that impossible for Noblemind.

That was only expected to happen. The way the characters of SAO develop is fairly realistic, considering that none of them had anything to do with killing in real life, and then they were blocked into a death game. You can't expect a boy to kill someone and then be okay about it like a mercenary would be, that's why I don't like people comparing Kirito to Guts. Their situations are different, even if they have the same nickname.

Also, the way Kirito matures is really interesting, and believe me, he's almost an entire different person in the fourth arc of SAO.

Even so, if he started getting serious, there would be no way of hitting him at all, since it'd bring Alrick in the equation and the only capable of rivaling the speed gifted to him is Deren.

They both fought and it ended on a draw with both of them on the verge of dying.
It was like two falcon punches colliding.

I certainly understand that it would be hard for her, but I like to go on the fact that this is a video game, so nothing is impossible.

I'd still think the level gap is too big for her to do much of anything.

I meant by skill mostly but Lios is level 40, due to power farming in dungeons.

Just wanted to correct this.

David was the one who matched Lios in speed

[Tulkomanistan]

What does level difference change in SAO? Is it like normal MMORPG games or you get different bonuses?

[Sindrya]

Not sure about rage, but they do both lead the Strug Life.

That is what I'd like to point out. Despite being high-level players, thus having the better skill than other players, they can never kill anyone in a fight. Even with all the abilities they have, they can't accept the fact that "In this game, you lose, you die. You win, you live." Despite real-life experiences in a fight is not something that can be considered a skill in the game, the mentality is enough to assure the outcome of the battle.

Those who hesitates to kill, will die. Those who willing to kill just to survive, will survive, if they don't get killed first.

And then there are those who didn't care before and now don't care twice over.

...Those are the scary ones who will probably kill everyone no matter how skilled they are, just because they don't care.

Pure reason toppled by sheer melodrama.

Tossing a tag here as I predict the death of several RPs I'm in...

Exactly.

That is debatable. Those who don't care don't have a reason whatsoever, thus having no motive. And so, their survivability depends solely on their skills. Lower-level players would be easily toppled over by the same or higher-leveled players with a motivation, because motivation is the greatest weapon, system or not.

[Relikai]

I have a question. Being a VR, practically anyone could play, even bed-riddens?

Hey Rel, nice seeing you around

Yes.

The only requirements would be to own a NerveGear VR helmet, and to be in Japan at the moment the game was launched.

Well, who knows. We'll see what would happen if Noblemind and Lios will really fight.

[Relikai]

Also, how many skills can one have? I read that by level 20 a character would have 5 skill slots.

Also, I plan to have a custom skill to be judged with the char app
