Mindy sees the punch coming and > weaves her head out of the way to avoid the punch
and if if the dodge succeeds (and it's allowed),
>counter with an uppercut to the chin.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - GoldenCityBird - 07-30-2021
Jasper roll: 2 (It doesn't appear to have been an elemental attack, but correct me if I'm wrong)
Mindy roll: 1
Jasper has the advantage (mild)
Jasper's punch hits Mindy, whose dodging only managed to do so much. The punch didn't do as much damage as it could have, but it did enough to throw Mindy to the ground. (This will result in a disadvantage to the next roll.)

Jasper, now that she has Mindy on the ground, decides to use an aspect of her Cryokinetic Combat to create an Icy Blade, and then goes to >Slash Mindy with the Icy Blade.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Mr. Lee Hammer - 07-30-2021
Seeing the Icy Blade coming at her, Mindy uses her legs to >trip over Jasper to avoid getting hit by the blade.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - GoldenCityBird - 07-30-2021
Mindy's roll: 5 (6, -1 from falling)
Jasper's roll: 5 (Nat 4, +1 from ice)
Tie
Mindy does succeed in tripping Jasper but not too much in getting out of the way. Jasper's icy blade scratches Mindy's side. It's not too bad right now, but it may spell bad news in the future. Meanwhile, Jasper herself has just tripped over. (Mindy also no longer gets a disadvantage from falling)
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - SmilyCube112 - 07-30-2021
Jasper, now SLIGHTLY irritated at being tripped, decides to just turn her Icy Blades into her Frosty Gloves and just >Throws a punch straight for her stomach.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Mr. Lee Hammer - 07-30-2021
Mindy sees Jasper trying to punch her stomach who again >dodges and counters with a flaming uppercut to the chin.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - GoldenCityBird - 07-30-2021
Jasper Roll: 5 (Nat 6, +1 for enviroment, -2 for falling (just experimenting with numbers to see what's fair))
Mindy Roll: 3 (Nat)
Jasper advantage (2)
Mindy takes the punch; fortunately, the heat from her pent-up fire weakens it. At least it wasn't enough to open her cut up any further.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Mr. Lee Hammer - 07-30-2021
"All right, I'll show ya how we do it in Brooklyn!"
> Give Jasper a Brooklyn Battering
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - SmilyCube112 - 07-30-2021
Jasper, upon hearing that, decides to try and >Dodge the attack.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - GoldenCityBird - 07-30-2021
(Probably the last update for today. At least I was able to keep on top of it this time!)
Mindy's roll: 2 (Nat. 2)
Jasper's roll: 2 (Nat. 2)
Tie
Jasper manages to dodge all but one of the punches - the final one. It does manage to knock her back dangerously close to the edge of the iceberg.
This comes at a price of Mindy, though; all those rapid punches tore that "scratch" into a semi-serious wound. She's still holding up, but that's one Achille's heel waiting in the open (this wound is on the non-dominant side, since I didn't specify at first).
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - SmilyCube112 - 07-30-2021
Jasper, after all that, picks up on the scent of Mindy's opened wound, so decides it would be best to >Throw some Frost Shurikens aimed at Mindy's wound.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Mr. Lee Hammer - 07-30-2021
Mindy, feeling her wound opening up and seeing Jasper throw her Shurikens at it, >uses her arms to protect her wound and to block the Shurikens.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - GoldenCityBird - 07-31-2021
Jasper roll: 2 (Nat. 2, -1 due to being punched, +1 due to location)
Mindy roll: 3 (Nat. 3)
Mindy barely has the advantage
The shurikens mostly manage to glide right past Mindy. The few that do only leave superficial scratches on her non-dominant arm.
Oh, and now the iceberg and the rock are starting to drift into each other's elemental seas. In two turns, they'll have completely swapped.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - SmilyCube112 - 07-31-2021
Jasper takes notice of the shifting platforms and takes the chance to get up, then re-equips her Icy Blade, charges straight towards, then >Stabs Mindy with the Icy Blade.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Mr. Lee Hammer - 07-31-2021
Mindy sees Jasper coming and again >dodges the ice blade and punches Jasper
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - GoldenCityBird - 07-31-2021
Mindy roll: 5 (Nat. 6, -1 from wound)
Jasper roll: 2 (Nat. 2, +1 from location)
Because it's getting rather long... I'll call this match for Mindy
Mindy, despite all of the trouble she's gone through this match, manages to dodge the frozen blade and land a punch right on Jasper's head. This pushes Jasper over the edge, and into the edge between the lava and the frozen ocean. She vanishes, before re-appearing on the iceberg.
The arena returns to its usual Roman look.
"I think I speak for everyone when I say that this match has gone on for long enough. Congratulations, Mindy, you have advanced to the semi-finals.
"With that said, we'll be having a quick commercial break while our next contestants, Peely and Elise, prepare for their upcoming match.
"Oh, and one more thing... all matches prior to the finale will now be one-life limited. Our sponsors told us to do so."
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Dookie - 07-31-2021
Peely gets up.
“Alright, Elise…good luck. I don't hope you beat me, but I'll be proud if ya do.”
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - wingedcatgirl - 07-31-2021
Elise stretches her muscles. "Likewise."
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Mr. Lee Hammer - 07-31-2021
Mindy takes a hard breath and holds onto her knees before she stands up straight. Exhausted and feeling hurt from her wound, nevertheless, she's quite happy she won the match. "Now that's how we do it in New York!" she says before heading to the spectator area.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - Dookie - 07-31-2021
Peely walks to the field, Warming up.
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - SmilyCube112 - 07-31-2021
Jasper, as she was walking to the spectator area, had the look of disbelief on her face. She couldn't bring herself to accept the fact that she was defeated so early in the tournament. She got sat down in the Spectator Area and just remained silent.

Isoe offers two high fives to Mindy and Jasper respectively. Yooooo! Good job, guys! That looked so cool! This is fun, right? I can't wait to go!
RE: The Trouble Cube Tournament Arc! - SmilyCube112 - 08-02-2021
Jasper just stays unresponsive for a good few moments, then: ".........I can never go back to the Diamonds."
