minus-squareYakTrimmer@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·2 months agoMy take is that, at that point, Gwyn is almost consumed and fights like an animal, so no finesse or technique there.
minus-squareEmpricorn@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 months agoInteresting take, but he does have technique and finesse in that fight… He’ll even grab you! Yet also mindless aggression. Makes me think of Bane’s quote: “You fight like a younger man, with nothing held back. It’s admirable, but mistaken.”
