About the event:
If someone is a mountain of knowledge (Earth 3, Precise Memory Distinction), they can possibly win all three games without ever taking a single strife, by slowly and carefully repeating Offense starts with Defense until their opponent loses it and they can call the killing blow without risking opportunities.
Not saying it's likely, just that it would be funny.

Re: OOC Chatter
Also, important reminders for the dice fest... I mean the event:
A character may benefit from the effects of opportunities even if they fail the roll.
Once par Water roll, a character may spend up to 1 to heal 2 strife (taken from the roll itself or previously acquired).
Once par Void roll, a character may spend up to 1 to name a non-Void ring. If their next roll use that ring, the TN is reduced by 1.

Re: OOC Chatter
Also good to remember:
While a character’s strife is in excess of their composure, the tumult of emotions that has built up causes the character to become Compromised.
If your Composure is 6 and you are at 6 Strife you are not yet Compromised. You can still roll, still keep dice with strife (though you will then end up Compromised if you can't soak it with Opportunities), or, for this event, still take option 7) Calming breath: You regain one strife without rolling.

Alternatively, if you're big on games, you could just slam through 3 games with 1 round killing blow yu-gi-oh style

Welp, RIP my place in the upper rung of the Miai.
It was a strong run while it lasted, but it had to end sometime.

FYI folks, Raizo is playing to Earth Opportunity Shiba like a motherfucker.
While my post is not yet up, he is already tanking 4 strife for Aimi, and 2 for Usogawa Narumi, and will likely be favoring others down the line...
