Round One: Stops at the last round. It’s very interesting about who actually stalls Emma for a bit and who gets beat soundly.
Like, 1-4 Emma breezes through.
Then the Stepford Cuckoos stall Emma for a bit until she dismantled them from the inside out.
Then, it’s back to beating the next two with effort.
Then, Xorn Jean absolutely stalls Emma by scaling off her fight with depowered-Emma, the 3 Cuckoo’s, and Teen Jean before she goes down. That pure power to aggressive experience difference that she has never actually displayed outside that fight is insanity to think about. But based around how well the Cuckoo’s do against High Tiers as a whole compared to how soundly they were beaten by Xorn Jean, it just foretells a potential extended fight before Emma beats her off of either taking advantage of Jean’s unstable powers or off of pure skill because Jean lacks feats outside that one fight.
Mastermind and Madelyne put up fights enough to give Emma trouble because Emma gets no rest. If she wins, it Is after an extended fight.
Pre-Shaman Nate can take down Emma if she is not careful. But Emma is notorious for her cunning.
Cable absolutely stops Emma though, after so many telepathic battles.
Round Two: Rachel stops at Madelyne. This purely has to do with Rachel’s fighting style.
Things go the same way as it did for Emma for the first few rounds.
Then it’s a toss up for how difficult the Cuckoos make things for Rachel. Rachel is winning either way, but how easy it is depends on if Rachel chooses to force her way through the Cuckoo’s or if she forgets how to defend and the Cuckoo’s stall her out. I want to say that since Rachel knows she is in a gauntlet, she will have her guard up and brute-forces past the Cuckoos.
Then Rachel defeats the next couple of psychics soundly.
Then she completely gets stalled out by Xorn. Unlike Emma, Rachel will just meet Xorn blow-for-blow. This will lead to a win by taking advantage of Xorn’s unstable powers, but that decision to meet Xorn’snpower with her own will leave Rachel drained.
That’s where Rachel will either trounce Mastermind or get stalled by his illusion casting based combat. Either way, she will have just enough power to defeat Mastermind.
She stops at Madelyne because by then, she will have exhausted too much power to keep her momentum. Rachel is no slouch in psychic combat, but she seldom uses an opponent’s weaknesses against them the way Emma does. The fact that Rachel does make this far though does testify how powerful she is.
Round Three: The girls clear. Rachel and Emma perfectly cover each other’s weaknesses.
