Feeling more confident, Mai clears her throat to explain. "Well.. We weren't getting anywhere by just simply taking turns to attack. Also, there was no way I could even dream of landing a hit on you, for me you were way to fast. But, I noticed that Ryoko actually was becoming pretty quick in producing barriers. He even had a pretty long range for them too. If you were just a bit slower, then I thought that maybe we would have a chance.. Therefore, if we could just create a moment where he can do a surprise attack, I'd be able to tag you."
