I DIDN'T LOSE VS SAI, I TIED!!!

BY SHERLOCK:

Your match vs Sai...
http://mangahelpers.com/forum/showth...96#post1801996

Read Kajimoto's effect. Very carefully. You actually tied against him, you didn't lose. You tied.

What this means:

Sai:
One loss
One tie
One match to go
You:
Two ties
0 losses
One match to go
Me:
One tie
One loss
Two matches to go

Any of us 3 can be the champ.

If you beat me, you automatically the champion. If I beat Chaos and you, and Sai beats Ken, it will come down to who has the better game score between Sai and me.

So, all in all...Good luck, and hit me with all you got.

Following A Captain's Pride desciption literally, Kajimoto tied VS Atobe

 

[Kaoz]

No, he lost. Sherlock I already told you that you're the one who misunderstands the effect. For it to activate, you must have lost one or two matches already and the opponent's level must be somewhere between 22 and 24..

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

there is a very big difference between me misunderstanding an effect, and you writing a completely different thing than you had in mind.

 

[Kaoz]

That's true however I even had a neutral person confirm that my position, a native speaker of english, I hate to break it to you but I trust him in that respect a bit more than you.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

There is not a single possible way to interpret that effect like that. But no use arguing with you about this again.

 

[-Ken-]

Damn. Well, I can still win if I beat both Jav and Chaos. Gonna need to focus.

I still don't know why you lost S3>.> You even guess Amane right but choose the wrong playstyle against him.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

There is not a single possible way to interpret that effect like that. But no use arguing with you about this again.

It's written in a confusing way (it should say "1-3 levels lower"), but context makes it obvious what the intention is.

 

[Jane Marple]

The context being "it's too obviously broken to be true"

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

The context being "it's too obviously broken to be true"

Read: "I only support loopholes when I'm the one using them."

Also known as:

"I choose the opposite side of bro in every conceivable argument no matter what the argument is"

 

[Kaoz]

Sherlock, send your remaining line-ups, so we can finish this season.

S1

Spoiler

All-rounder

-Bible Tennis [Feat]:
All of the opponent’s effects are negated.

-Entaku Shot [Effect]:
Shiraishi’s Spin is boosted by 5 points.


Ah, finally an interesting match-up. First of all Bible Tennis activates and negates effects or rather it would but Illusion as well as Samurai Drive can't be negated, bad luck I guess. So to wrap it up, Shiraishi is boosted by 5 points thanks to Entaku Shot but drops by 8 because Niou guessed his opponent correctly. Now Niou uses Samurai Drive at full power to finish Shiraishi off.

Winner: Niou, Sherlock

3-2 Sherlock

Well then everyone, only two more matches to go... Ken send me your line-up!

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

Just as planned. There is a Chaos in the way though.

 

[Kaoz]

Haha, I'll start doubting your abilities if you lose to me.

 

[javimgol]

Sherlock had a f**** 20% chances of guessing Shiraishi with Niou, and he did it!
I'm sure this time was just luck. He predicted with Mizuki that Irie would have been in S1...

Mizuki was a true failure (except Gakuto,and with Iri with him wasn't important), LOL

I mindraped Mizuki/Sherlock, but I still lose, damn it...

 

[Bowser]

-Prediction Master [Opening Effect]:
Mizuki's player must predict his opponent's lineup. He must guess the character's exact positions.
(1) When guessing his own opponent correctly, Mizuki's Control is boosted by 4 points and his opponent's Effects are negated. (Singles only)
(2) When guessing another characters opponent correctly, that opponent's Effects are negated and your character's Control is boosted by 2.
(3) This effect cannot be copied.
(4) This Effect cannot be negated.

----------------
How does this work again XD im a bit confused in doubles. Say in a double match, Sherlock got one person right but not the other, will it be effect negated of the person guessed correctly and both of sherlocks players control boosted by 2 points?

 

[Kaoz]

That's right, let's say Mizuki predicted the opponents A and B, but the actual players are A and C. A's Effect(s) is/are negated whereas C's works normal.
The players X and Y on Mizuki's team now each get a +2 to their Control, if Mizuki himself would play, he'd get a +4.

It wasn't luck. I calculated every single possibility. Mizuki's predictions guaranteed that if some were wrong, I would win. I predicted Irie with Mizuki because quite frankly it wouldn't make any difference.

Most of Mizuki's predictions were to avoid things like Shiraishi in doubles, and Kajimoto's effect.

They were insurance.

I calculated that if Niou's prediction was wrong, I would still win.
I figured that if I were you, I'd go for Irie in doubles.

Your FIVE Mizuki's Predictions failed. With Shiraishi in S3, i would have won :Enbu Boy is Mr.Broken, but even with Mizuki prediting Shiraishi correctly, Mr.Ecstasy would have won (36 vs 32, Bible Tennis, a Feat, cancels Successor)you'd lose 3-1

You were lucky, you can not deny it...

Have I finished third in the league or could I even get a worse place depending of the last match?

 

[Kaoz]

Lemme check... oh, that's kinda unexpected... Kuwabara surpassed you as he has 3 byes and no matches, whereas you have 2 byes and one lost match, that being said, when Sherlock and Sai both lose (and I didn't miscalculate), Kuwabara could still finish in first place.

 

[javimgol]

I lost 3-2 VS Sherlock and Sai, I tied VS you and won 3-1 or 3-0 the rest...how could I be fourth?
