- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

The "good guy" being perfect is a big part of what I saw. The "bad guys" can afford to be imperfect because there are so many more of them, and eventually their numbers win.
Also, from what I saw, the tempo of the fight goes way up, which is hard on the "good guy". Like, maybe in a normal 1 on 1 fight each person makes roughly 1 attack every 3 seconds. In a many-on-one fight the "bad guys" might attack at 1 attack every 5 seconds, a bit slower because they need to chase down the good guy and avoid their own team. But, if there are 5 of them, that ends up with 1 attack per second on average that the "good guy" has to deal with, which becomes pretty frantic.
Overall, I'd definitely rather be on the "bad guy" team, because you're almost certainly going to win. But, I wouldn't want to be one of the closest / first attackers because they have to deal with a fresh "good guy" while avoiding running into their own allies, or getting hit by a wild swing.
