Very good point there Live. However, I was thinking that opponents would likely try and use every available trick, so shooting first and then closing. Now certainly, if the distance is closed, the sword is pretty much guaranteed to win unless they seriously mess up.

And indeed, gunscythe could refer to any mix, which would need to be specified beforehand. Even for the gunblade, you would need to specify the calibre, semi-automatic or revolver etc.
