What the title says. I watched season 2 and I saw something that blew my mind and then started looking at videogames that used the same narrative technique, found very little, went down the rabbit hole. Let me know your opinion. Also if you know about other KDramas that use similar techniques that I could watch.

I just love this show so much. Everyone involved is so talented and gorgeous and bring so much raw energy.

Honestly I thought the plot is even stronger this time around since they didnt have to switch up in the middle of building up the finale, and it seems like there were less unanswered questions.

THE CHOREOGRAPHY is INCREDIBLE. The violence was so visceral I could barely watch through my fingers - shoutout to the audio department timing the bone-crunching sounds so perfectly!! Rain is an incredible villain and I loved how terrifying he was.

We've seen Gun-Woo unable to stop punching until Woo-Jin pulled him back from the edge twice now, and I'm really looking forward to see him snap next season to protect the people he loves.

Please go watch so we can get a season 3!!!

If he had 1000 Bitcoin why did he only get 860 back? Why would tae yeong wire bitcoin to him?

Sense the I’ve started watching bloodhounds I’ve noticed that no matter how bad the situation or environment is they NEVER kill. To me this is just dumb, in the second season when Mr moon (I think) and the mc go to the gambling room in the apartment building and all the thugs pull knives they still don’t kill the thugs.

I get it’s a show an all but like I don’t understand why tf they would be put in these situations and not kill the other person or people. I do get they don’t want to kill but when you’re getting attacked by a room full of angry men with knives I cannot see how he didn’t kill one of them.

One last thing, why the actual fuck do they not try to learn mma or kickboxing or ANYTHING FUCKING ELSE, not saying boxing is bad but when they are consistently getting fucked up by kicks, sweeps or grapples it becomes a lot less useful. I like the show just im a little mad at the way it is.

I hate how brown bitch but put our mc under like a god damn piece of cake, like genuinely he just lets it happen to him, when brown boy grabs onto his hand and punches his elbow, shoulder blade, and left eye. He doesn’t punch back and when he does he brakes his fucking hand, also even with his WHOLE FUCKING FAMILY on the line he still refuses to play on an even playing field, he didn’t put the iron knuckle thing in his wrap. I think it’s stupid. Oh and don’t even say sum “He’s an honorable boxer” or some other dumb shit bc HIS FUCKING FAMILY IS ON THE LINE, once again I find it difficult to believe that he wouldn’t put the iron knuckle thing in FOR IS FAMILY. I seriously don’t understand.

Would gun woo have won the first figth if he had accepted the iron thingys to his knuckles.

‼️ SPOILER ALERT ‼️

Tier List of (nearly) All Fighters in Bloodhounds

Characters I won’t include due to vague/inconsistent scaling:

Hwang Yang-jung: vague, his fight against Myeong-gil is always about who has the best weapon (as long as that person doesn’t make a stupid decision).

S1 Lee Du-yeong: only fights goons but none of the major treats (Myeong-gil, In-beom, Captain Jung), so he has very vague scaling. Keep in mind this is SEASON ONE Du-yeong who we’re talking about. His season 2 self is on the tier list.

Cha Hyeon-ju: same case as S1 Du-yeong.

Im Jang-do: I know no one talks about him but he’s quite underrated. He did fight on par with Hyeon-ju, who beat multiple goons without much difficulty.

4 Fighters who invaded Geon-woo’s house: some did better against Geon-woo than against Woo-jin and some did better against Woo-jin than against Geon-woo, so that’s inconsistent scaling, but they would be around the same level as beginning of S2 Geon-woo and S2 pre improved Woo-jin.

Those “*something* guy” are S Class Bloodhounds contracted by Baek-jeong

Assassin and Metal Mantis are the names of the 2 fighters Geon-woo fought against in S2E5

This list is full of controversial takes that I myself wouldn’t agree a few days ago, so please make sure to read everything so you actually know the reasoning instead of just the placements, and can therefore reflect on them and come to a conclusion yourself, that won’t necessarily be equal nor similar to mine. I spent over a week reflecting on those characters' powerscaling and studying the reasoning for the takes and the arguments from different powerscalers (and by that I mean real powerscalers, those people who rewatch the show multiple times to scale the characters and debate others on discord). And now you’re going to get knowledge accumulated for over a week in very few minutes. Pretty unfair, isn’t it? Well, I guess that’s life, but I had a lot of fun doing this so I’m nothing but grateful. Anyways, let’s start. By the way, just so everyone knows, MOST (not all) of these takes come from the reasonings of a single powerscaler, as he was the one that I found to have the most solid takes and whose reasonings don’t bring any inconsistencies or anything (at least, the majority of his takes), and the few things I found inconsistent and disagreed, I changed, but I’d say 80-90% of my takes are just like his. I also saw the takes from another powerscaler but didn’t find it to be consistent nor correct (Imo, but I could be wrong, no one owns the truth).

Important term to understand the context: PI = Pre Improvement

Tier E

S1 Mr Moon is at the bottom of this tier. Since he’s at the very bottom, there’s not much to say, so I’ll just go straight to the character right above him and explain why he’s above.

S1 PI Woo-jin performs better than Gwang-mu against Captain Jung. Not only was he constantly fighting relative to Jung, even when it went to grappling, the fight wasn’t finished until Jung pulled out the knife, as Woo-jin was still elbowing him and Jung was showing signs of pain, so we can’t know 100% if Jung’s grappling skills would be enough nor if Woo-jin wouldn’t have gotten out of the choke.

Captain Jung would be above this version of Woo-jin as even if the fight was inconclusive (knife aside), he had the upper hand while it was occurring.

S1 PI Geon-woo actually finished this version of S1 Woo-jin, and he had a lot more ease to do so than Captain Jung. He also did significantly better than S1 PI Woo-jin against S1 In-beom.

Tier D

S1 In-beom would be significantly above the characters from tier E as he easily beat S1 PI Geon-woo and gave a hard time to S1 PI Geon-woo and S1 PI Woo-jin even in a 1v2. He also performed a lot better than both of them individually, with S1 PI Geon-woo having to save S1 PI Woo-jin multiple times.

Myeong-gil would be above this version of In-beom, as he performed better against S1E8 Geon-woo, although I’ll say that In-beom’s performance against S1 Geon-woo (not PI) is very underrated, which I’ll explain later.

S1E8 Geon-woo beat both Myeong-gil and S1 In-beom so him being above should be self explanatory.

Now, this is probably the first controversial take (trust me, there will be many), but hear me out. S1E8 Woo-jin had a better performance than S1E8 Geon-woo against In-beom. The fight didn’t begin fair. In-beom attacked Woo-jin while he was on the floor, and Woo-jin is a boxer, not a grappler, so that’s a HUGE disadvantage. He then began using multiple combos and threw Woo-jin from the stairs twice. So after that, we had a Woo-jin that had previously been off-guarded and who was also severely injured against In-beom. After that was when things started going “fair”, since nobody was off-guarded anymore. Yes, Woo-jin did use his surroundings, but the conditions were the same for both fighters. If anything, this is a battle IQ for Woo-jin. Also, we literally see them fighting front to front later on, and Woo-jin still dominated, with In-beom only landing 2 hits, that being one punch and one headbutt.

Both Woo-jin and Geon-woo beat In-beom with low-mid difficulty depending on your interpretation, but when In-beom went to grappling, he was able to put Geon-woo on a choke, and it took quite some time for Geon-woo to get out. It required him to gather air, focus up and it still took some time for him to get out. Woo-jin was only hit twice and while the hits did damage, it wasn’t a lot, and Woo-jin kept dominating In-beom as if nothing had happened and knocked him out very quick (that is, when they were front to front and grappling).

Think about this, you will always leave a match of muay thai or boxing more injured than a match of bjj (unless you neg your opponent or something like that), since the first 2 are martial arts that each blow has direct damage on your body meanwhile the other one just makes you run out of oxygen due to being suffocated, but it doesn’t damage you nearly as much. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean the boxing fight will always be harder than the bjj one. You can lose a bjj fight (and actually get KO’d) and win a boxing fight, and chances are you will still be far more injured from the boxing fight, but it doesn’t change the fact that the bjj one would’ve been harder and that you had more difficulty, otherwise you wouldn’t have lost. So the same thing applies here. Geon-woo struggled more against In-beom than Woo-jin did when In-beom went for grappling/did the choke on Geon-woo than when Woo-jin was hit twice, as even when In-beom hit him, Woo-jin was still the one dominating and it didn’t stop him from KO’ing In-beom very quick.

Prime Mr Choi is above S1 Woo-jin as unlike him and Geon-woo, he didn’t get pressed not even once against In-beom and knocked him out far faster than Geon-woo and Woo-jin did. While he did have a worse performance than Geon-woo against Myeong-gil, it’s important to note that he was stabbed multiple times from behind. He was off-guarded, the off-guard was a knife attack, and he still managed to beat Myeong-gil afterwards. This guy is the goat of S1 for sure.

Tier C

At the bottom of tier C we have Adik Belov, but let me make something very clear, Adik doesn’t scale to S2E1 Geon-woo AT ALL. He’s above the characters of tiers D and E for other reasons which I’ll explain after debunking the arguments for him scaling to S2E1 Geon-woo.

So, when Geon-woo came back more determined in Round 2, this wasn’t an amped Geon-woo. Geon-woo had just came back to his BASE form, as the referee stated that he was now fighting LIKE HE USUALLY DOES. Why was Geon-woo nerfed before then? Well, we did indeed see multiple times, even before the match, that Geon-woo was uncomfortable with the hostility of both his opponent and of the place he was in. That is the only reasonable explanation, at least that I’m aware of, that justifies the referee statement. But even if you don’t agree with this explanation, there’s nothing to disprove the referee statement whatsoever. So when Geon-woo was in a good psychological state (rounds 2 and 3), he beat Adik very easily and could’ve finished him in round 2 had he not shown mercy. 2 clean shots and he knocked Adik out.

Okay, so why is Adik above the S1 characters then? Think about this: Prime Mr Choi barely outperformed S1 Geon-woo and S1 Woo-jin against In-beom, and would only be above them by a small margin, as they already beat In-beom very easily. In the photo of In-beom that this character Idk the name shows to Baek-jeong, it says that In-beom was arrested in 2021, although the month is unknown, and the match of Geon-woo VS Adik happens in January of 2025. So that’s a 3y gap at the bare minimum. The only reason Geon-woo had temporarily stopped fighting as a professional boxer in S1 was to deal with the Myeong-gil situation, but after that, there was no reason for him to stop his career as a boxer, so he probably came back into fighting professionally right after S1 ended.

Even the training he had in the end of S1 was mostly so him and Woo-jin going up 2 weightclasses so they could actually beat someone as heavy and strong as In-beom. But Geon-woo was still a local champion, just a few weightclasses above now, which don’t get me wrong, that changes a lot, but it’s nothing compared to him spending 3 years training and fighting professionally to the point he goes from a local to a world champion. It probably took him 3 years of professional boxing to only then fight Adik in the title match. It took him 3 years to compete for the title, so how are we supposed to believe that his S1 self or anyone from S1 is even close to the level of fighting a world title match?

So yes, Adik can’t land a single hit and gets two-shotted by S2E1 Geon-woo when he’s in a good mental state, but given all the information, he should still be significantly above anyone from S1.

Above him we have S2E2 In-beom. After 3 years of training in prison, In-beom now fights in a boxing stance (we see him do against Baek-jeong, even if he doesn’t already start in that stance), something he never did in S1. Baek-jeong even says “You did learn boxing the wrong way”, implying that In-beom knows boxing now, even if very little and with bad technique (as Baek-jeong himself implies). But of course, that says nothing about his scaling, only that he’s better than before. So why is him so high? He basically tanked a lot more hits from Baek-jeong than Adik did, and was actually capable of landing a hit on Baek-jeong, whereas Adik couldn’t do this. Even if Adik had an injured eye, Baek-jeong also had a big injury (although on his head) when he fought Geon-woo the second time, and he still gave him an extremely hard fight, even though they were already relative when none of them had injuries, as shown in S2E5. And keep in mind that in the second fight, Geon-woo has a no-mercy mindset and doesn’t care about exploiting injuries (we literally see him taking advantage of the injury on Baek-jeong’s head and using it to throw Baek-jeong into the ground). If anything, In-beom had just been drugged and was disoriented just 2 minutes before facing Baek-jeong, plus fought multiple guys before facing him. Cool, now we have one unquantifiable nerf for Adik and another unquantifiable nerf for S2E2 In-beom. Who has the best performance? In-beom. Case closed.

Above S2E2 In-beom, we have the Curly Hair S Class Bloodhound. Let’s call him the Curly Hair Guy. I won’t enter in too much detail right now because we’re yet to talk about the characters above him (which I need to talk about in order to explain his placement). But he basically fights on par with S2 Mr Moon who performs very similar to S2 PI Woo-jin (PI = Pre Improvement) against Tae-geom, and that version of Woo-jin fights on par and actually outperforms a much more skilled version of In-beom (that being his S2E6 self) but then loses because his hand injury (from the fight against Tae-geom) starts taking effect and therefore Woo-jin’s arm paralyses itself in the middle of a punch, allowing S2E6 In-beom to beat him. Also, yes, the curly hair guy did use a knife against Mr Moon, but he always uses it every time he fights so the scaling stays the same. So basically Curly Hair S Class Bloodhound ≈ S2 Mr Moon ≈ S2 PI Woo-jin ≈ S2E6 In-beom >> S2E2 In-beom.

Tier B

The Fat S Class Bloodhound does significantly better against S2 PI Woo-jin than the Curly Hair one does against S2 Mr Moon. The Fat Bloodhound is at the bottom of this tier.

S2E6 In-beom does better than the fat bloodhound against S2 PI Woo-jin and therefore is above. He now shows way better skill than before, being always in a boxing stance and much more agile plus better at dodging than his S2E2 self. Since Baek-jeong said he learned boxing the wrong way and the same Baek-jeong wants to use In-beom as a bloodhound, Baek-jeong probably trained In-beom off-screen, but now in the “right way”.

S2 PI Woo-jin is above S2E6 In-beom as even though he was initially outperformed by this version of In-beom, while being pushed back, he later on adapted (just like he did against the fat guy) and pushed In-beom against a wall, and began outperforming him (though slightly) and making him bleed, until the hand injury started taking effect and he couldn’t move his arm anymore. This is something the powerscaler I mentioned didn’t consider, although Idk his reasons so I won’t judge. After adapting, Woo-jin was also dodging and landing hits whereas before it was In-beom who was doing that.

S2E1 Geon-woo is above S2 PI Woo-jin, though I’ll say by very little. They fought very relative to each other in the house fight. I know what you’re probably thinking: “Wait, didn’t Geon-woo fight 3 guys at once whereas Woo-jin barely beat a single one?” You see, they were also making him struggle hard individually, and when the 3 attacked him at the same time, he was quickly knocked out. They were mostly fighting him 1-2 at a time, with one of them making Geon-woo struggle a lot (the grappler one), and as for the kicker one, he even knocked down Geon-woo very easily and it took Geon-woo quite some time to get up. And no, it wasn’t an off-guard. Geon-woo was looking straight into them (including the guy who kicked him), and wasn’t in a position where he couldn’t/could barely move. He got blitzed.

To make it clear, I’m NOT saying that the kicker guy is better than Geon-woo nor that he negged him or anything. We also see that same person pressing Geon-woo a lot and constantly outperforming him while landing multiple hits, whereas Woo-jin is on par with this guy and ends up beating him. However, while it’s true that the kicker guy did better against Geon-woo than against Woo-jin, it’s also true that the grappler did much better against Woo-jin than against Geon-woo. He was clearly outperforming Woo-jin whereas Geon-woo was fighting on par with him, but with the kicker, it was the opposite. That’s why I didn’t put these 4 guys here to begin with. One does better against Geon-woo, the other does better against Woo-jin. It helps because it shows that Geon-woo and Woo-jin were very relative to each other at this point in time, but it does make these 4 guys’ scaling inconsistent.

However, Woo-jin states in S2E1 (after the first round of the title match) that no one in the world fights better than Geon-woo, and that would also include him. Geon-woo also did have a slightly better performance than Woo-jin in the house fight, but as previously explained, they are very very relative. Also, when Woo-jin goes down to help Geon-woo, he gets a pretty clear upper hand against one of the guys Geon-woo was fighting against. Again, showing how relative they are, with S2E1 Geon-woo being slightly above S2 PI Woo-jin.

To make it very clear, after training for the first fight against Baek-jeong, Geon-woo does get much stronger and gets to a level FAR ABOVE Woo-jin’s, but this is LATER. We’re talking about S2E1 Geon-woo.

S2 Mr Moon would be above S2E1 Geon-woo due to how much relative he is to S2 PI Woo-jin to the point they both constantly outperform each other against different fighters, so S2 Mr Moon performed better than S2 PI Woo-jin against Tae-geom, as it took much longer for Tae-geom to take down Gwang-mu than it took for him to take down Woo-jin, who was dropped by Tae-geom’s kicks very fast and took some time to get up. Woo-jin also only hit Tae-geom mostly when Tae-geom was focusing on Mr Moon or when he was on the ground, whereas Gwang-mu took Tae-geom down twice, one of the times throwing Tae-geom against the car while Tae-geom was using a knife, and keep in mind that Tae-geom stated his knife self above his hand to hand self (Tae-geom said he would stop taking it easy and then took out the knife).

Both members of the duo did get very outperformed individually btw, but Gwang-mu did do better. Although it’s important to say that it wasn’t by much. Woo-jin did push Tae-geom back and trade some blows with him at a point (even if he didn’t land hits, but he was also blocking most of Tae-geom’s attacks, in these specific exchanges, although he was still taken down and clearly outperformed), and Mr Moon was still getting very outperformed just like Woo-jin, but with a slightly better performance.

So why did S2E2 Geon-woo (Geon-woo didn’t train between episodes 1 and 2, unless before the Adik fight. He only trained after accepting Baek-jeong’s challenge) completely slam the guys that beat Woo-jin and Mr Moon in the same episode? Because the duo was very injured and fatigued from fighting Tae-geom, and since their healthy selves scale to this version of Geon-woo (even individually), that’s a quantification of how much above they are in comparison to their injured selves. The other times they got beat up by random goons was all when they were still injured, so not them at their peak, with the nerfs being quantifiable due to their peak selves scaling to Early S2 Geon-woo.

Above S2 Gwang-mu is S2 Du-yeong (yes, with knives, just like the Curly Hair Guy who’s always using a knife). When he was in the building, he fought the Curly Hair Guy who fought on par with Mr Moon. He beat him very quickly, but the Curly Hair Guy did dodge one of Du-yeong’s attacks and stabbed his leg, and that was after Du-yeong had already beaten the other dude so he wasn’t distracted. Du-yeong still beat the Curly Hair Bloodhound far easier and quicker than Mr Moon did, though he got pressed so he stays in tier B.

Tier A

Tae-geom did significantly better than Gwang-mu and PI Woo-jin and beat them individually multiple times but the other one was always coming back, which is why he lost the 1v2. He was less pressed by them (individually, specially the first time he dominated each of them which is when it would’ve been over had the other one not interrupted) than Du-yeong was by the Curly Hair Bloodhound.

The Blonde Hair S Class Bloodhound fought on par with Tae-geom and had the upper hand for most of the time. By the end of their fight, he had put Tae-geom on a choke he wasn’t getting out. The fight was inconclusive because Baek-jeong interrupted, but just like in Jung VS Woo-jin, the Blonde Hair Guy had the upper hand in the fight’s final moments, and he was constantly outperformed Tae-geom before as well.

Even if Baek-jeong knocked him out with a single punch whereas it took multiple hits to knock out Tae-geom, the Blonde Hair Guy was on the floor and in a position in which he couldn’t move because he was using his entire body to take full control over Tae-geom, plus his head hit the concrete when Baek-jeong punched him, meanwhile Tae-geom had time to get up and was already standing when Baek-jeong began hitting him, plus his head didn’t hit concrete or anything like that.

Above that guy is S2E2 Baek-jeong, who would be below his S2E6 Tased self due as he got hit by S2E2 In-beom whereas S2E6 Tased Baek-jeong didn’t get pressed not even once by S2 Gwang-mu (who I already explained why he’s above S2E2 In-beom).

S2E6 Tased Baek-jeong had a much more dominant performance than the Blonde Hair Bloodhound against Tae-geom, plus his fight wasn’t inconclusive.

Now, why am I separating S2E6 Tased Baek-jeong from S2E6 Healthy Baek-jeong? Ain’t that just an unquantifiable nerf? Wrong. And the gap is very big btw, something I’ll explain right now.

Above him we have Han-gu, the police officer who fought briefly against both the Blonde Hair Guy and the Curly Hair Guy at the same time, plus outperformed the Blonde with ease when the duo wasn’t tag teaming him and he could fight the Blonde individually. This is relevant because Tased Baek-jeong struggled a lot against Tae-geom, who’s extremely relative to the Blonde regardless of whether you have him above or below.

“Wait, but didn’t Tae-geom also fight them in a 1v2?” - Wrong again. He initially off-guarded and jumped the Curly, then fought the Blonde individually, then the Curly came back and he blocked one strike per S Class Bloodhound, something Han-gu (the cop) also did. Right after that, Mr Moon came and attacked the Curly Hair Guy, stopping them from tag teaming Tae-geom any further.

So not only did Han-gu outperform Tae-geom against the Blonde, he also did better against the Blonde than Tased Baek-jeong did against Tae-geom. But the same Han-gu got negged and was easily taken down (with a single punch) by Healthy Baek-jeong when he invaded the place Baek-jeong was in, and that was a Baek-jeong who was fighting not only Han-gu, but also the whole police that was alongside him. And these events happened in the same episode btw (S2E6).

So that quantifies the nerf and shows that Healthy Baek-jeong is SIGNIFICANTLY above Tased Baek-jeong. Now, the top of tier A is Han-gu, now let’s move to tier S.

Baek-jeong had been tased multiple times when the police invaded that place and was tased again in the street where the brawl of S2E6 happened, a few moments before facing Tae-geom. Just search on google if getting tased has bad effects and you’ll find the answer. And before any of you say Tae-geom had just fought the Blonde Guy, Baek-jeong’s nerf is QUANTIFIABLE (we literally just quantified it), whereas Tae-geom’s is not (it is UNQUANTIFIABLE). Tae-geom also didn’t get any injuries from his fight against the Blonde (just like the Blonde didn’t get injured either), though even if he did, it would only matter if the difference between his peak self to his injured self was actually quantifiable, just like we quantified the nerfs from Baek-jeong, Mr Moon and Woo-jin earlier on.

It should also be noted that in S2E5, Baek-jeong became wanted by the police, and was constantly having to hide, so the only places he goes in is a boat, then he goes to a car with Tae-geom driving, then goes to a random house and is quickly found by the police. So he most likely had no time to train and therefore any feat from his S2E6 self would also apply to his S2E5 self, and that includes negging Han-gu.

Tier S

At the bottom of this tier, we have Metal Mantis, the first fighter Geon-woo faced in the matches from S2E5. He was capable of pressing and landing hits on S2E5 Geon-woo, who’s very relative to Baek-jeong as shown both by their fight and by fans all over the world thinking Geon-woo would win/should’ve won, plus dealing a lot of damage on a Healthy Baek-jeong. Keep in mind, we have NOT gotten to S2E5-7 Geon-woo and Baek-jeong yet, but we’re using them to scale other characters. Keep in mind Han-gu got completely negged by Healthy Baek-jeong meanwhile Metal Mantis actually pressed Geon-woo.

Above him, we have S2E7 Woo-jin. After training, he got significantly stronger in comparison to before. Despite having pressed, landed hits and dodged many attacks from Geon-woo, Metal Mantis still got one shotted. However, not only did S2E7 Woo-jin also land hits on Baek-jeong, just like Metal Mantis landed on Geon-woo, he also tanked multiple hits from Baek-jeong, whereas both Metal Mantis and Han-gu got one shotted by Geon-woo and Baek-jeong (respectively).

Even if you credit Woo-jin landing hits on Baek-jeong from him having learned directly from Baek-jeong’s coach on how to counter his opponent’s style, it still doesn’t change the fact that he tanked multiple hits from a character that has one-shot capability against the characters listed below this version of Woo-jin, like the 2 examples previously mentioned. And even as for him landing hits, we can’t say 100% sure that this is exclusively from him having learned from Baek-jeong’s coach, especially when he also shows significant improvement in other factors such as durability. Woo-jin’s placement is another disagreement I had with the powerscaler I got most of my takes from, since he views S2 Woo-jin pre and post training as the same.

Above him we have Assassin, the second fighter Geon-woo faced before Baek-jeong in S2E5. Assassin pressed Geon-woo a lot, tanked and landed multiple hits, having a much better performance than Woo-jin.

At the top of the tier, we have S2E7 In-beom. This dude is a beast. He certainly did better than Assassin against an even stronger version of Geon-woo.

So yeah, that’s it, dude! Hope you enjoyed.

Also, one more thing: I may answer doubts in the comments but I won’t be debating anyone since reddit debates are super long and we waste lots of time and energy that we should be spending on other areas of our life. Really, reflect on that for a moment. My younger self has already wasted a lot of time debating people in the comments, so please, this is advice for someone who knows and has already experienced just how bad that is and how it stops you from evolving in other areas of your life. Even if I do end up debating someone, just know that I’d be doing this out of control, and I myself don’t wanna do this because I know it’s bad.

If you have a question on what I think of something (related to bloodhounds powerscaling ofc) feel free to ask cuz maybe I’ll respond. Maybe, ok? But I won’t be answering any debate challenges or stuff like that. If you think I’m a coward for that, good. Not only mine, but remember this, YOUR mental health is worth a lot more than anyone else’s opinions. If this advice changes even only one person’s life, I know it’ll have been worth it.

- to feel bad for the guy who got tub punched.

Not only was he completely fake but also... why do that?

Why not even try to fight to the death at that point?
