After months of being sidelined from our cosplay fight league due to the ongoing pandemic, and jonesing for action without any indication of our usual stomping grounds re-opening, it's time to take matters into our own hands! After reaching out to our group chat about getting together for some one-on-one quarantine matches to continue our season, I received several responses from willing and able leaguemates. The stipulations: as per-usual fights will be done in the cosplay of our choice, matches limited to six rounds, and gatherings will be limited to the fighters and one guest of their choice (trainer, coach, emotional support human, etc.) as well as a vetted volunteer ref from the community.
How voting works: You will choose two options, one for the outcome of the action and one to credit the winning boxer! If you're choosing "Other" please do respond to the thread with your thoughts and ideas about how our match will resolve! I'll be taking the results and writing up a fight recap for the rest of you to enjoy.
Who is Lizzie? I may be young but I've been with this cosplay fight group as long as anyone, entering my third year of action with them! In typical fashion I enjoy dawning the garb of my hero, the "Tomb Raider," and will be happy to snatch yet another victory in my sapphire top and explorer jeans (those tatters aren't cosmetic, they're very much from years of wear and tear in the ring). This has been an up year for me in the league, with four solid wins over six matches, and only decision losses marring my perfect record. Prior to the league suspension I was regularly training and sparring, though with the lockdown I've been relegated to staying in shape from the comfort of my own home.
Strength| . . . . x | . . . . . | Punches as well as any most girls in the league, but needs one-hit stopping power.
Stamina| . . . . . | . . x . . | Can go the distance and recover well from getting rattled.
Quickness| . . . . . | x . . . . | Great glovespeed and can counter effectively, but can be stationary at times.
Skill| . . . . . | . x . . . | Studious and disciplined, but needs to be more adaptable with strategy.
Who is Kaylee? A newcomer to the league but so far has shown real promise as being a no-bullshit bruiser who gets results despite her lack of experience. She's a versatile cosplayer who has a literal wardrobe of costumes to choose from, and isn't afraid to feature a new outfit to be ruffed and tussled each match. She'll be entering our fight as Nico, and will hopefully show us how "crafty" she can be in the ring! Prior to the league suspension she racked up mid-fight KOs in each of her wins, losing only once to a league vet in a closely contested match. Kaylee isn't much for training, instead relying on her innate toughness and winging it in the ring.
Strength| . . . . . | . . x . . | For her size, very adept at slugging, though without much accuracy.
Stamina| . . . . x | . . . . . | About average level of energy compared to other girls in the league, definitely can't take it as good as she can sling it.
Quickness| . . x . . | . . . . . | If she could work on her accuracy and signal less, she would be a real force in the league.
Skill| . . . x . | . . . . . | Needs to work on form and footwork, but otherwise a competent boxer.
