Tad Judgement

Verlux wins.

Strength was well sourced.

Both combatants were shaky on speed, but Verlux pulled out the First Gate feat which convinced me of it. Yolo did have a point that other than that interaction, the Sword Saint fight seems like he's pretty dominant speed-wise which may be an issue if it's all he has. Zodd was even worse though, it's clear by scans that Demon Zodd does not interact with Guts the same as Human Zodd.

Yolo conceded dura lol. Zodd's archetype doesn't really work with doing that. I got away with it on Usagi because he was so fast in his own tier that he just arguably finished fights without getting hit. Even if the scaling for Zodd was good, he's not fast enough to pull off being a glass cannon and he certainly doesn't fight like one.

That's pretty much it. Yolo ended up with a character missing 2/3rds of their stat triangle and Verlux presented Hina as a competent combatant. That iron cage crater feat is really good---I would jump straight to that instead of emphasising the redirection aspect.

Advice to Yolo:
* Vertical bullet points for statposts, not block paragraphs.
* Avoid large segments of argument without scans. Keep things succinct and not repetitive.
* Hone in on specific wincons more. The Zodd 100 years skill argument did not contribute.
