    Ambush predator vs endurance predator
    The fight was won when the first hit missed

  • @lloydkeith3061

    A poor ambush predator will stand no chance against an endurance predator. Ask any cobra how they feel about a mongoose. They are all about grabbing a snack,... until they suddenly realize, they are the snack.

      The thing is, these snakes aren't poor ambush predators. If killing moves were allowed, they would've easily won most likely.

    Nice story.
    Not the usual superior human.
    The story simply show that the sergeant is a better combatant....well...shes a sergeant after all.
    Also, the advantage of ambush predator vs pursuit predator is nicely explored in this story.

    the great thing about this story is he didn't even get the full brunt of it, had the fight been for real the moment he lost track of her he'd have found a knife in the side of his neck.

      Then again. As I understand a paralysis venom? Sprayed? Or in bite? Both had restrictions. Clearly in wild, with only weapons you could grab from ground. Humans would lose one on one +99% of the time.

    Knowing the US military, if this future Human military is anything like it, that Sergeant probably would've gotten into just as much trouble as that Sthiss. They'd likely have both been demoted to the same rank.l, specifically because it was so stupid to fight a Sthiss.

      Well in this case it se ms okay. I mean, this was a refed, professional match, both agreed toin a eay that isnt just two people loosing ther cool and fighting.
      Plus with the new race hotsho thing, it sounds normal.

      I can imagine some harsh words for fighting the Sthiss, but the difference here was that it was a mutually consented, reffed match.
      The Sthiss had also broken the rules of the match by trying to permanently injure the Sargeant, that's why he's getting demoted, not because of the match itself.

    If KsKoth were to ever get in trouble over anything, he would make the claim of following a superior’s orders and even tried to stop his squad mate from such a situation anyway.
