second, have you ever seen a gun brought to a knife fight?

in these kind of situations, range matters, but ultimately you fight to your strength and your opponents weakness, the GunScythe is pure long range/midrange, the Gunsword is midrange, but better all around, so you would fight close range.

Secondly, this thread is taking into account Tourney/arena style fighting, which means it does not always give each type of fighter their preferred style of combat, much like the Ninja vs Spartan shenanigans where the Spartan won because the ninja doesn't stay true to form striking from shadows and engages them in open combat like a dumbass, there is no extremely long distance fighting in this format, and keeping mid/long range would be extremely difficult.
