Pandora's Actor vs Tsurubami

Alright great match. The win conditions for PA that immediately jump out at me is his aura's, since those would not be confrontation. Instant Death will make the moon fall tho, so that just brings a draw if he goes for that. Negative Touch should also work if i am understanding the ability right.

If any Overlord experts are available, what does PA open with?
 
Hey, I'm an Overlord expert! I can help!

Don't believe we've gotten much out of the man, but based on his interaction with Albedo he prefers to transform into a form that would mess with his foe the most.
 
Well, he doesn't have Intel so I'm not sure who he would default to. He should be able to tell that Tsurubami is undead via his detection abilities
 
Ainz says that it's just surface thoughts and they use it to figure out how the other person expects them to act, to keep the disguise. Don't think he could just grab the info on what would mess with Tsurubami the most, unless the guy is already thinking about it for some reason.
 
If he can't pick the right form from his opponent's surface thoughts, it shouldn't be too useful. He also can't just make up a new form on the fly iirc, only the ones he already has analyzed, like all the Supreme Beings
 
I'll vote properly. They both have viable win conditions as is discussed above but it seems that Tsurubami more reliably goes for his, so I vote for professor Tsurubami
 
We never saw Pandora fight for real, so there's really no way to know what form he'd start with. Most likely Ainz, in which case he should just use instant death. If the moon falls and he notices it, he could fly into space, or use a spell to flee to another dimension, maybe.
 
Instant Death is gonna get shut down by his passive confrontation erasure. Has Ainz (and therefore Pandora's Actor) shown to fly into space to avoid attacks, or move onto another dimensions for survival?
 
How does that erasure work?

They never had to dodge anything of that magnitude, but leaving the planet is the logical response to the moon dropping on you.
 
Its language manipulation. Anything that qualifies as "confrontation" gets its Kanji passively converted to the kanji for "nothing," and is thus made as if it never existed. It's some pun in Japanese that I obviously do not get, since I do not speak Japanese lol.

Isn't he a guardian of the treasury first and foremost? Wouldn't he act to try to save the planet first and foremost based on that?
 
If PA sees the moon falling, he isn't going to try to save Nazarick. He knows that he has no chance of doing that.
 
Fair enough. That being said, he still needs to go for the specific moves in his arsenal that are not considered "confrontation." At least now he is allowed to go for moves that are indirect, and can kill him.
 
PA can morph into Ainz and use a charm spell. Those probably aren't considered "confrontational".
 
How does the Charm spells work? I listed a few of the other abilities I think wouldn't be considered confrontation above as well
 
Iihiko was frenzied, and was thus immune to styles for that scene. Iihiko also landed on him by accident, so it wasn't a confrontation anyway
