The Last Poster Wins! [V9]

[Sir Sivelos]

*APOPH uses level 9999 ANTENERGY PULSE! You know what this does, it cuts CERTAINTY's energy pool by quite a lot. The sudden decrease in energy leaves CERTAINTY tuckered out.*

*MR. ICE uses level 9999 TERRA GLACIA! A massive mountain of ice forms above MR. ICE; the thing is as large as an American Football Field. MR. ICE hurls the glacier at CERTAINTY.*

*DMK is still sending MACH TORNADOES CERTAINTY's way.*

*SIVELOS mumbles something. He's showing signs of stirring.*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*MR. ICE uses level 9999 FLAME ARROW! Crafting a bow made out of brimstone, MR. ICE fires an arrow of pure heat energy at CERTAINTY. This attack has a high chance of causing a trip-up.*

*APOPH uses level 9999 NETHER SHOWER! Many otherworldly energies rain from above! This attack is quite strong, and covers a wide range (read, all of Certainty's area).*

*DMK uses level 9999 MACH TORNADO! You know what this does.*

*The ICE ARROW hits an illusion!*

*The NETHER SHOWER connects!*

*You go across the GRAVEYARD to properly deliver the MACH TORNADO, a CLOSE-RANGE attack...And promptly run out of energy midway through. Yeesh.*

Last post

*That was never going to happen and you knew it as well.*

*cast Soulful Maelstrom; a gale of wailing ghosts swarm towards Certainty*

*There are no ghosts around! The attack fails!*

*APOPH uses level 9999 TERRA BOLT! A beam of earthen energies are flung at CERTAINTY!*

*MR. ICE uses level 9999 HEAT WAVE, covering CERTAINTY's side in broiling heat!*

*DMK sends many MIRROR SHARDS CERTAINTY's way, cutting through their target!*

*All attacks miss because they hit Illusions! DMK's attack is retaliated via Lv. 9999 LIGHT BLAST, which breaks your countered illusion but doesn't hit you.*

*casts Chrono-Lock 5; freezes the time around Certainty for 5 minutes*

*CERTAINTY seems to be frozen...But, where? The Illusion still stands!*

*APOPH uses level 9999 ANTENERGY PULSE! You know what this does, it cuts CERTAINTY's energy pool by quite a lot. The sudden decrease in energy leaves CERTAINTY tuckered out.*

*MR. ICE uses level 9999 TERRA GLACIA! A massive mountain of ice forms above MR. ICE; the thing is as large as an American Football Field. MR. ICE hurls the glacier at CERTAINTY.*

*DMK is still sending MACH TORNADOES CERTAINTY's way.*

*SIVELOS mumbles something. He's showing signs of stirring.*

*SIVELOS cannot wake! Neither can OMINOUS or JUSTICE! This unconsciousness cannot be woken from!*

*APOPH doesn't seem to hit anything with his attack...*

*MR. ICE's glacier doesn't even get to the platform, going wild and flying overhead into THE NAMELESS SUBSTANCE.*

*DMK wouldn't have done that, but luckily the GRAVEYARD's time has expired and it vanishes, allowing him to actually do it. However, he doesn't find his target before he has to quit.*

*CERTAINTY definitely seems frozen in time, as no attacks come sailing at you.*

*INDIGO TEXT uses NECKSLAYER! He pulls back an arrow...And realizes that he doesn't know where CERTAINTY is yet. He switches to LIGHTBREAKER, severely weakening the illusion from the sudden darkness that sets in and then retreats!*

[Sir Sivelos]

*APOPH uses level 9999 SPATIAL VOID! Not relating to the NAMELESS SUBSTANCE, APOPH forms a small star in his hands… It seems to be consuming light wherever it exists. He throws it in the illusion's direction, with them sailing through the air until they hit something, in which they vanish.*

*MR. ICE isn't very sure what to do, so he simply uses a level 9999 BLIZZARD once more.*

*DMK uses the DIMENSION MIRROR to reveal the truth behind the illusion, weakening it.*

[Ganyu]

I synthesise those wailing souls. My bad, I forgot I couldn't do that here. Rules.

*casts Meteor Bombardment, targeting the illusions and/or Certainty*

*CERTAINTY takes the BLIZZARD less than graciously! The illusion wanes further, but does not yield! Perhaps one more attempt to illusion break ought to do it...You still have to hand it to her, when 4 illusion breaks are required to bust her illusions, when it takes 2 to destroy a master's illusions, well.*

*casts Meteor Bombardment, targeting the illusions and/or Certainty*

*Oh, trust me, this place is a place of death more so than any other, and if it WASN'T conveniently surrounded by instant-annihilation death, this place would be far more likely to spring angry spirits than the average Indian burial ground. You synthesize fake wailing souls (that are probably MORE potent) for your next attempt, and manage to make sure they don't go near the edges. Your additional prep allows for more power. The chance they'll hit CERTAINTY with such powerful illusions in place is still debatable. Hooray!*

*Your Meteoric Barrage whiffs! The illusion is EVERYWHERE and not concentrated!*

[Sir Sivelos]

*APOPH, picking up steam, begins rapid-firing level 9999 SPATIAL VOIDS wherever he pleases. Illusions wane further.*

*MR. ICE continues firing blindly into the illusion, using BLIZZARDS and HEAT WAVES. Really, there's not much he can do outside of this right now.*

*DMK cranks up the power of the DIMENSION MIRROR to its highest power... But it is clear that cracks are beginning to form on its surface.*

[Ganyu]

*casts Antimatter Pulse; waves of antimatter particles roll and wash through nearby illusions*

[Sir Sivelos]

((Wouldn't Antimatter be the equivalent of the Void, since it basically annihilates any matter of equal charge? Maybe I'm reading too much into this.))

Apoph: Daka daka daka daka daka! *APOPH is firing anti-Light Stars like there's no tomorrow.*

*DMK is straining the power of the DIMENSION MIRROR beyond it's limits…*

*…and MR. ICE is just attacking blindly. You know the usual, HEAT WAVES and BLIZZARDS.*

*ILLUSION BREAK!!! CERTAINTY is revealed!*

Certainty: How DARE you shatter those perfect scenes?!

*MR. ICE WHIFFS!*

*casts Antimatter Pulse; waves of antimatter particles roll and wash through nearby illusions*

*The ANTIMATTER hits CERTAINTY instead for damage!*

*ANTI, as in, ANTIMATTER, is its own damage type.*

*APOPH whiffs due to dakka overwhelming accuracy!*

*DMK stops that becuase that would be stupid and she's already revealed.*

*MR. ICE whiffs, she's revealed!*

*INDIGO TEXT uses NECKSLAYER! He draws back the bow, and an arrow lets loose, aimed straight at CERTAINTY's neck! SAVAGE UPBRAID! MASSIVE DAMAGE!*

*REBECCA uses DIFFUSING FLARE! A multicolored fire pillar sprouts over CERTAINTY's position, attempting to TRIP UP her...But it fails!*

*CERTAINTY, with no GRAVEYARD or other turf effects to restrict her movement, rushes behind MR. ICE and one-shots him. He is unconscious now, due to ENDURE's effects. She then makes sure to kick SIVELOS back to unconsciousness if he even thought about stirring early. This reveals one of SIVELOS'es swords to APOPH, who could really use the EXTRA DPS wielding an actual weapon would give him.*

[Sir Sivelos]

*APOPH grabs the sword, which is revealed to be THE SWORD OF BRONZE FLAMES, a blade wreathed in flames that can melt through anything (save a few resistant materials), and sends a wave of BRONZE FLAMES towards CERTAINTY!*

*DMK puts the DIMENSION MIRROR away and creates a cage of massive SHADOW GALAXIA clones around CERTAINTY!*
