I mean, so is Tokiomi, and I always saw that as mentioned in the context of that remark on just cutting her off from the land.
It also specifies that this is a magecraft duel, which, like I said, is the sort of thing Kayneth's more suited for than an all-out deathmatch. I don't think the point's that Kayneth and Tokiomi are great at combat, it's that they're knowledgeable about magecraft and could leverage that.Nasu: Frankly, she is the top mage in Fuyuki. Still, first-class mages would follow the "since she's a child of nature, just cut her off from the land first" plan, so it's not like she's invincible. Kayneth and Tokiomi may be able to best her in a magic duel.
Either way, I'm just saying that Kayneth fundamentally isn't a combatant- he winds up being good as a combatant relatively speaking because of how amazing a magus he is, but like Reines says, he's not suited for this sort of thing. We saw this in Zero. Astoundingly good at all the stuff that makes a magus a magus, but he's not suited for a no-holds-barred fight to the death.
I'd hoped for some kind of twist, but I see you went with the same angle
You better be lisining, cos I'll only say it once: Stop the trigonometry jokes, or I'll tan your hide.
Arctan.
shit BL says
Once and always and nevermore.
Now, now, let's not go off on a tangent.
Reporting you all cos I don’t get it
On the other hand, he has direct access to one of the most delicious cosines in the world!

Hmph. That was bad, too much of a reach. I'm admitting defeat and quitting.
I know I proposed something like this before but I'm quite curious how it'd turn out. Hyakkimaru (Dororo) versus Tohno Shiki.
Richard vs Charlemagne
Charuru has higher STR, Richard has higher END and a skill that increases his AGI as the fight goes on. It might come down to if Charlemagne can knock him down before the AGI becomes too much to handle. You'd think potential sneak attacks with Rounds of Lionheart would give Richard advantage, but Charlemagne has his floaty swords too.
In a beam clash, uh, does Joyeuse Ordre have stats? The wiki (I know, I know) doesn't list any.
Well Charuru also has a burst skill so I'd expect him to have the advanage in specs.
All in all it probably does depend a bit on whether or not Charle is cool in this fight for Royal Road. But Charuru seems better honestly all in all.
