The Wizard of Control Part II

“Judging from that look you have, you probably think I predict the game that way because I’m a Control player?”

Lia said, easily putting Joke’s thoughts into words. A feat that could rarely be done.

“As a fellow Control player, you should know the tactics very well, right?” Joke asked.

“Wrong.” She shook her head. “There are various styles and methods of exerting control. Mine is closing off every means of counterattack from the opponent, gradually creating gaps between LPs and Halves on the board until they give up. I control to seek victory. However, Black Wizard’s control is through controlling your thoughts, predicting your movements, and slowly closing off the opponent’s choices. He’s not putting pressure to get the match result as quickly as possible… How should I put it? My coach described him as a psycho boxer who doesn’t try to knock you out when the punch lands but instead, keeps dancing around the ring until he can win through points later on.”
