I have no particular preference for either choice,
Baltika9. But I guess I'll flop to
C1 (Zhang Jue) > C2 (Nameless the Second) - really the name in C2 doesn't matter as much so long as it's not going to use Zhang Jue. There isn't that much of a difference in B2 and C2, because the guys we're fighting still know we've got a mask on and who we really are. It's very similar, really.
All of this subterfuge is pretty useless if someone is able to sense, and recall our unique qi.
Yeah, Cao'er, of course. But we know she'll be a good girl and shut the fuck up. She showed some surprising tact in Songfeng by not bringing up the poison publicly.
I'm curious B2 voters, have you thought far enough ahead to consider how we would fight if B2 wins? Whatever we do, people will remember our face for whenever our true identity is revealed, even if that doesn't happen until we start challenging young sect fighters. Are you planning to fight poorly and get knocked out early? At least with C2 we have the opportunity to fight well enough to stay in the tournament for awhile without having to use all of our abilities and without anyone connecting our moves to our face.
This is really why C1 is just leagues better than the other choices. That being said, I could see some ability for subterfuge going on
if we steal the other fighter's mask:
There are a few other strange competitors, including someone in a tiger’s mask who put himself down as Nameless, but no one expects anything from these weirdos – they appear every year and disappear just as quickly.
If we can snatch this guy's mask while in competition, it would really work to our benefit. I'm not sure if that's even possible yet, but I think that the idea has potential. Really, I am up for anything that allows us to fight in a situation where we know who we're up against, but they don't know who they're up against. I want as many rounds of sparring as possible against our future competitors, and I'm down for any option that facilitates that.
However, I am sure that if we can get this dude's mask as well, most of the voting bloc would be supportive of it, as it wouldn't involve throwing Farmerbro under the bus. Unless of course it turns out that the guy in the tiger mask is a really nice guy who volunteers at the local animal shelter. In that case, we mustn't dream of doing anything so despicable. Stealing this man's mask? How dare you? How fucking dare you? The guy just came here to win some money in the tournament so that he could donate it all to the animal shelter anonymously (that's why he was wearing the mask in the first place, btw), but now you heartless bastards go off and steal it? You're all worse than Zhang!
