You said giving him a rule of cool fighting style was a bad thing, but the entire damned show runs on the RoCOS ...no…I did no such thing, I said you tried too hard to make him cool, notice the underlined word that sounds like the number “ two” and has one more "o" that “to”, that can be used in the phrase: “I tried too hard to stuff two eggs in a glass, and now my hands are messy because both broke in more than two pieces”, there is a difference.

Ruby has a midrange fighting style with a scythe that primarily utilizes the recoil from her gun to power her swings; yes it’s a fighting style powered by rule of col but it is not called the “get rekt m8” style.

Similarly, Yang has a kickboxing style that also uses the recoil of her guns to power her swings and close the distance, while occasionally employing grapples; yes it’s a fighting style powered by rule of cool but it is not called the “tea bagging” style.

You saying his fighting style is literally a “Rule of cool” style is a little on the nose and borderlines on satire. If your character was more cocky and a chatterbox and he told someone his fighting style is the “Rule of cool” style, that works fine, it’s in character and makes for a good laugh; but when the author of said characters just tells me his fighting style is “Rule of cool” in a series that puts a surprising amount of work in order to make cool fighting styles…what am I supposed to do with that? It's simply a case where you tell me something when you shoul be showing me something in stead.
