Question about Blazing Skull

[Steef]

How did you guys handle his update in 2107? His DEATH BY FIRE finisher seems to call for an injury everytime he uses it past the +3. If that's the case, what if the +5 doesn't result in a pin? Say he's wrestling Archon, uses the +5, injuring him for 12 fight cards, but then Archon kicks out and comes back to win? How does he do that with his face burned off? I know it's "synthetic" fire, but it just doesn't make sense to me. Also, it seems like it's an automatic injury with an automatic suspension. If the guy kicks out, is Skull still suspended? If he uses it 3 times in the match, do the suspensions add up? I know it's a lot of questions, but this card mechanic just isn't working for me.

thanks in advance

I think it had to finish the match.........and it rarely came up for me. Sometimes I just ignore it UNLESS I wanted it for storyline reasons.

Yeah, I always said that it didn't injure guys unless it finished the match. Otherwise, I assumed that the guy managed to cover up or roll out of the way and avoid the blast.

I think I tended to run it so that the guys fought through the injury...making it entirely possible that Skull horribly burned, say, Archon and he rallied and kicked Skull's butt, but then went on the injured list.

After all, the GWF/CPC/aCe stars aren't meant to be mere mortals, but the pinnacle of human(oid) skill, tenacity and ability.
