Sorry about that!

To her credit, Launch is definitely not backing down any, and with them holding back, she’s got quite a power advantage. So, they’re using what they have sparingly, letting Launch exhaust herself by trying to take either of them out. They can do this because they’ve known Launch almost all their lives, though, and even with all the skills she’s picked up and power she’s gained, there’s a familiarity in how she fights that puts her at a disadvantage.
And… the same is true for you and Pantea, if you’re being honest. That’s why it might be best to play against type. But is that all you can do? …Your mind goes back to the Hakkero, and how it might help. It’s not something you can use lightly, Maple especially will notice it whenever you use it, but if utilized at just the right time, it could even surprise Maple. Or… wait a minute. Hah, of course! Even if she doesn’t know it as well as you do, Pantea is at least familiar with how it operates. The ultimate switch-up: Pantea getting a Magical boost through the Hakkero! And the best part is, Nox can’t copy it… you think. You hope.
Passing the idea along to Pantea, the two of you get to work figuring out how to best go about it. It might not be a great idea to try it next match, but this… this is doable. Now, the real question is Nox and Ledgic. HOPEFULLY they can’t copy the Hakkero’s powers, but with Nox being a Majin… you can’t quite be completely sure. Image training with Pantea a bit, you try to see how you can face these two. Ledigc might be relatively easy to deal with, his skills and strength are formidable, sure, but Pantea could probably take him on her own, and you’ve got an arsenal to utilize against him. Nox though… gah. He’s got so many things he can pull out as a surprise, and you KNOW he’s got the strength to back those techniques up. Telekinetic redirects of Ki blasts, barriers and Ki pinballs, heating up, freezing, or electrifying the floor, maybe even that weird thing Buula did that-
