Debating
On debating, NATION will take the side of the Shirai-Ryu, while FTS will defend the Hylians

Okay, this should be an easy win for the Shirai Ryu. The only protection that a Hylian has is that dinky little wooden Deku shield. It'll be smashed to splinters from the Goedendag, being that it is a club, and javelin hybrid. The ropedart can be used so effectively, it will mystify the hylian, leading to a very easy kill for the Shirai-Ryu, and not only that, their little short sword has nothing on our two handed blade of death. We also have teh option of striking from teh shadows with the fukibari, hitting you before you could even see us.

Right, but you're forgetting about the Bomb Arrow. It is like a medieval RPG, with the explosive force of a Pineapple grenade. Secondly, your ninjas may be agile, but so are the Hylians. The Fukibari is such a limited weapon, as the range on it is terrible, and the shield can stop the dart. And while your sword may be longer, we have two hands, so while the shield can deflect the sword, it'll lead to an easy stab with the Kukiri sword. ANd not to mention that the Poacher's Saw is much liek tha Aztec's Mahaquitl, in that it's just got so much kill potential, and the waved edges might break your sword if it strikes just right.

Final Fight...
This match will be done on February the 3rd. (Thursday Night Fights)

Who? Is? Deadliest?! Shirai-Ryu Hylian
