The Thornbearer possessed an extremely powerful attack method. Its entire design was based around delivering fast and powerful stabs. Any mech that got struck even once would definitely receive a painful blow. The chance would be great that such an attack could easily breach through the armor of its opponent.
Once that happened, the performance of the damaged mech would definitely become impaired, thereby giving the Thornbearer an even greater chance of succeeding in its next attack!
The Heart of Victor could not allow itself to get stabbed even once. Yet instead of pursuing the more prudent course of action and assuming a more defensive posture, Lyain Kepper sought to lay a mark on the enemy mech with each exchange of blows!
Though it was extremely difficult for any mech or mech pilot to divert the course of a powerful and rapid spear stab, it was not impossible to pull off this risky move.
