Talk:Battle of Man versus Machine/@comment-26595384-20170208155707

Alright, so here is my assessment of this match after talking with a great deal of people. So this match was all about staying 5 meters away from your opponent during the fight, and only using long distance strategies. A majority of the judges agreed that this five meter space was not to be impeded on, regardless of the intent to attack or not; as this would lead to cheap technicalities that a person could perform after a person has attacked in order to get their opponent out. So this five meter space between opponents was definite.

Clara overstepped this limit between opponents by going to retrieve her mechanical arm. Now after talking with Grunt and getting a more clear description of how he said that the arm was brought back, he replied with "a sort of magnetism [and] after it was brought into range the wires reconnected and rebuilt the connection." Now after looking over each character's page and checking their abilities, Clara does not have an allusion to magnetic abilities on her page, so this magnetic pull of her arm is invalid in the story. This means that since the arm was in Cecil's "domain" (i.e his side of the 5m space), in order for Clara to get the arm, her wires must have reached across the 5m space and enter the Galdrabok side to connect her arm.

Even without this technicality of magnetism, after Grunt's explanation in the story, the arm is still within the 5m space during its time of re connection with Clara's physical body. Though she is a robot, this is the same principal as if a mage were to use Titan Magic to reach across the gap; even though their feet are still planted on their side, part of the physical body that they can control is still impede upon the 5m limit, thus breaking the rules of this event. So although it is sad to say, Clara did not keep the rules of the event in mind, nor her own abilities, when falling for a clever bait placed out by Cecil. So I will call Galdrabok the winner due to Libertus breaking the rules of the event.
