TheWetWaffle's "Pearcing The Server" Edges

External Approach: This is an easy edge for Pearce. Even though he'll face obstacles like the Yakuza and Japanese Government and Law Enforcement, he's open to a lot more info and isn't limited to SAO unlike his opponent. He can track down and subdue Akihiko thanks to his access to police reports and CtoS allowing him access to various other pieces of information like cameras, cell phone records, and more. Akihiko's basically a sitting duck and is vulnerable to any outside sources due to his limited allies. Once Pearce finds him it's game over (hur hur). Edge: Aiden Pearce

Internal Approach: Now one would expect Akihiko to get the edge but not exactly. This edge is a rather tough one since it's basically the fact that Akihiko is playing on his homefield versus Pearce's wit and cunning tactics, allowing him the ability to fight with the help of players of the game, which can help. Ultimately it's even to me, since Akihiko and Pearce both have their own pros and cons when in the game. But still, I doubt Aiden would enter the game to defeat Akihiko since it seems too risky. Edge: Even

Overall: Akihiko is basically screwed in almost everyway imaginable in this fight. He lacks the allies, strength, and versatility Pearce brings to the table, since he's limited to only having power in the game. Pearce has the firepower and skills to defeat this digital madman. This isn't the first time Pearce has taken down a spree killer and while he didn't strike on as big a scale, he still drove Aiden all over the city to look for him. Akihiko will do the same, but will have a tough time trying to fight back. Pearce wins.

Overall: Aiden Pearce
