How terribly dreary. You fight like a criminal defense lawyer.

That has been said before, no doubt it will be again. If you don't hate me by the end of this fight, I'd like to fight you again in unranked so I can prove that I'm not just generally a dick, tournament and ranked play brings out the worst in me. If I wasn't competitive, I wouldn't bother with ranked fighting at all. 

For the record though, for the love of god why didn't you just have your character step backwards? It was such an easy solution, definitely less messy than all this pivoting/kneeling/ducking stuff you're doing instead that makes it incredibly hard to visualise.
