If the object is to not have your tube broken, then doesn't that mean that your role as a fighter is to simply protect your tube?

It does lead to a defensive type of fighting, but there was a time limit that was sort of enforced.

More commonly, people were trying to hit the other persons tube. If you can get the end of your tube to hit the middle of their tube, that seemed to cause a lot of damage. But the tubes would often start to fail around where I was gripping it.

Her stance is hella better than yours...

no doubt. like i said, i need to practice more.
next time, I'm getting lower to the ground and taking a lighter grip on the tube.

It will be glorious! I look forward to the battle. Even if we don't officially face each other on the 19th, it might be beneficial if we invested in some tubes and met up before then. This weapon is not as easy to wield as it looks!
