Maki's physique in general spoke for itself. She also wasn't the type to rest on just having it either. She had a few too many weaknesses to let her strengths dwindle. Yugi's understanding of the situation that made Maki only be 'B-ranked'. A smirk came to her face as the lad admitted that his eyes moved faster than his body. "It's okay, you can eventually balance it out. Though hand-eye coordination training is brutal," Maki stated honestly. "Until then though, We can cover each other's weaknesses," she provided the missing link in the conversation. Still, there was always something as she prepared to go, their Tanker apparently wasn't thinking with his whole brain today. She had to assume he was one of the ones already taken in by the speeches, but a lower ranking Tanker couldn't really get by without properly understanding the damage dealers he had on hand. "It's really like some of you have rocks for brains," she said aloud. "Actually think about it past your own frustration, not all things can be measured by mana and ranks alone. Come along or don't, but I'm not doubling back to save you if you make a dumb decision," Maki asserted. She knew where she was going and she pointed her blade that way and began moving. "Let's move!" she demanded. Whether the Tanker remained or it was just a multiple damage dealer front, she didn't care, she'd make do and begin moving forwards. Her naginat swinging precisely to clean up the webs, taking out any spiders that were too close and cleaving ants on the big sweeps as well.
Meanwhile, Miko's group was suffering for its incompetent leadership. She watched and listened as the A-rank Tanker pushed through spider webs and knocked away ants while he brazenly pushed forward. Miko noted as they moved in line that the man who had her back was at least maiming things that got to near. After slipping out of line to unsheathe his weapon he was right on top of it. As far as she could tell the ones at the end of the line were also doing something. "Insects communicate with pheromones and vibrations. Magical insects have to be using similar logic. Every broken spider web and every step through an ant trail is leading them back to this line. We're going to be flanked. I can hear them coming," Miko stated to her immediate partner. Of course, in so doing she also had that sword of hers occasionally popping up into her hand. She was finishing up the jobs of killing the maimed creatures with quick vibrations, through that catalyst which also managed to leave just a little bit more space for movement around herself and the man behind her. She'd also gotten quick enough about it, that she was sure such things were mostly unseen. "I don't know if the one's in the back are going to be able to take the influx," she mentioned unhappily. There were so many ways to do this, she could think of at least two that weren't going to leave them caught between a giant centipede and a hoard of spiders and ants.
