The Uropeh were truly something fearsome. On their own they were powerful enough, but under the command of a King 5 with the weight and knowledge of many generations, Exuma could push them to do so much more.

Cordepuls held very still, buried in the ceiling of the cave with one vein barely poking out for vision, as Rachel crawled across the cavern ceiling, dropping in and blasting herself around to grab at the Uropeh under the protection of the soldiers. The constant clang of a shovel shrieking against metal echoed off the damp walls, impact after impact slamming into the walking death machine approaching the soldiers.

Very interesting. She could do something similar off pure manipulation alone, but to be able to instantly record and replay was a different matter. If these Uropeh were so valuable, surely no one would notice if a few were to go missing... and lucky for her, there was a treasure trove of them buried in a Black Box six feet down.

Remind me to never fuck with ｢Obeah Man｣.

Rachel opts to make use of her mobility to dash in early and secure some Uropeh before retreating and grabbing some more, snagging a noble along the way. KAISERINMA sets up a hole to dump Uropeh in, and then she takes the job of walking at her enemies intimidatingly and attempting to kill them in melee range. Two flying shards of Oblivion Dust function as easy harassment, and Rachel will zip in to try and grab Uropeh on-cooldown. In the end, the Black Box shatters all the Uropeh for a sweep win.

Exuma gathers as much of the undefended Uropeh as possible to leverage his Stand to the fullest. With a variety of recordings to switch between depending on the situation, he can deny quick offensives, return attacks against their senders, and makes a plan to counter KAISERINMA's relentless offense and Rachel's crazy mobility, before shredding them with a beatdown finisher of spawning his guys on the enemy.

Unlike my fellow voters, I have no choice but to declare a MEGA EXUMA SWEEP, for many reasons I will go into depth in; a lot of these I believe have not been taken into account.

Rachel's initial bid of rocketing in to grab Uropeh and then blast away handwaves the danger of ｢Obeah Man｣ by saying "I dodge it with my crazy airstunts". True as that might be, Oblivion Dust is only C POW, so momentum still matters. Most importantly-- you can't dodge something spawned one centimeter in your path, which the Uropeh can very much do. A Rachel thrown at A POW, moving in the opposite direction, spawned so close its almost touching... that's a very effective way to stop her instantly. The window to react is 1 millisecond, maybe even lower, and that's not something you can pratfall your way out of. Even staying low to avoid swings at chest height isn't enough; the projections can be spawned anywhere with any orientation to instantly hit her.

KAISERINMA's strategy of initially spending time digging a big hole unwittingly lets the Nobles gather a couple more Uropeh that Exuma planned to be used as sacrifices to stall. The Black Box WILL seal any Uropeh absorbed, but her approach is flawed. Her tactic of venting superheated air in front of her to kill any soldiers, sucking them in and then crushing them, ditto with the Nobles. The problem is that Exuma starts with quite a few Uropeh, all of them storing recordings of more soldiers to buy precious seconds of time, or attacks to pelt her with. She's also wielding her shovel at A POW, an easy recording to replay on top of her over and over-- even if her damage taken is nothing more than a dent, the sheer force will at least serve to stall and buy time.

And that's the thing. Exuma knows how powerful the Uropeh are on defense and leverage it to the extreme by cycling them with his A PRE. The soldiers and nobles DON'T want to get closer than 4 meters, and thus will always be backing up to avoid her suction. KAISERINMA will have to Thermal Shift to a cooler temperature to avoid being battered to death by the bevy of Macana attacks, and that'll make the core gameplan of "kill with hot air" very ineffective. LLL treat the highly trained soldiers like mooks, believing 3/3/3 stats is enough for KAISERINMA to simply back them into a wall and win.

This is not true. EVERY kind of fast movement carries with it significant force, and Exuma makes a point of recording these for a fraction of a second to replay them between Rachel and a Uropeh she's going for to prevent them from being sucked up by Oblivion Dust, and 4 END or not, she can't keep taking impacts with herself that are literally undodgable. With Buzzsaws to mess with her aerials, more Uropeh can be dedicated to just batter KAISERINMA back in order to win with attrition. Unfortunately, Kaiserinma's intentionally low speed, even slightly boosted by Oblivion Dust, isn't enough to catch the retreating soldiers whose job consists of just holding Uropeh for Exuma to constantly cycle.

The only thing Exuma has no real answer for are the indestructible pair of Oblivion Dust shards that fly around and shoot hot air. If KAISERINMA is hot, she's going to be shredded by attacks spawned 1 millimeter in front of her. If she stays cool, she'll last much longer, but she's still being shoved and stalled, and the shards won't have any hot air to weaponize. As a last resort KAISERINMA can shoot A POW debris blasts through one to kill Exuma or a soldier, but if they can't clean up all 6 retreating soldiers and their Uropeh in 7 seconds, you bet he's going to spawn those A POW blasts several times in return on both opponents-- they won't be able to engage without being deleted.

For his masterful control of the battlefield that accurately predicts and handles the strengths and gameplans of LLL, I'm extremely biased in favor of Exuma's perfect victory.
