>>105675135>If he wasn't using it Yang could very well have knocked him out before he even got to use his charge.Not really, no. His semblance doesn't require him to take damage in the first place, because he can block with his weapon.
>b-but anon! He had to use his semblance to keep the pressure on Yang!No he didn't. Because none of the semblance use actually fucking did much. He could have just used his regular attacks, and when he unleashed the full moonslice it probably would have cut clean through Yang's arm, since even the shitty watered down one breached the outer layer. Him not using his semblance wasn't going to suddenly make Yang punch harder.
For the record here is what he does with his semblance while engaging Yang:
1. Blink forward to hit her with a regular slash combination she blocks
2. Throw an energy slash that literally does not go anywhere, it just actually disappears
3. Run around her a bunch and fire a wave that slides her back a couple feet
Nothing about his semblance helped him in the fight. He just used it to use it.
>>105675195>(if he can even do that, perhaps there's a limit)There isn't, see the Black trailer.
>so what? That still wasn't enough to actually break Yang's Aura, it would have ended the exact same way (Yang at like 1% and her Semblance still active).I would love to see what completely baseless math you are doing to assume that. His 4th moonslice use in a row still had enough power to cut through the armor on her new arm and expose the mechanical parts inside. If it had been any stronger it would have taken the arm out completely (if it didn't go straight through and injured her as well).
>>105675338See above. He didn't break any guards. One use does nothing, the other two are just blocked regularly with her arm. The third one is especially fucking retarded because he speeds up enough that she can't keep up and then ATTACKS HER FROM THE FRONT AT A DISTANCE SO SHE HAS TIME TO REACT AND BLOCK.
