A young unassuming human lad? What a perfect scratching post for the mystic Slash to sharpen his claws on before the more challenging Light matches. Granted, Thomas is normally a competent enough fighter due to his excess of evasion, but Slash has several backup spells like Wind Slash that should blow right past Thomas’s evasion. Throw in Slash’s excellent HP and speed, not to mention the Tenkai star’s own middling damage and questionable durability beyond evasion, and Slash should soon find himself one step closer to the championship.
