Matches that were/have been hard to write?
King Kong vs Gaira has been taking forever for me to write, and because of this I was kinda wondering about the rest of you guys and any matches that took you a long time to write, or about matches you're in the process of writing that seem to have taken forever.

Gigan Vs. Baragon and Rodan(Heisei). It's hard to get the story element i'm working with right and i'm trying not to make it too much like another match I wrote, so it's a bugger.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
Desghidorah vs. Grand King Ghidorah. Not only for it being my longest match (Especially when I tend to get writers block a lot and I'm not as good of a writer like those such as Birdman and Tomzilla) yet but thinking of the plot for it and how they end up having their fight take place on Earth's Moon. I eventually finally thought of one and finished it up a while back. Also while it is easy for me to write with Desghidorah. Grand King Ghidorah was kind of hard especially since he lacked arms and all that so I couldn't figure out ways how to have him fight back in close-quarter combat/physical fighting.
I guess Destoroyah vs. Kumasogami as well but that was mostly from how I tried to find a unique/original way to end it.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
The toughest matches, from experience, for me to write are either more story-driven ones or just very long ones. While I could easily just write a random matchup for the sake of it, I personally want to evolve as a narrative storyteller too, so I want there to be some sense of purpose with future matches. Still, it doesn't hurt to do random matches; but I'd rather have it be engaging on some level.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
I think Manda matches are really hard to write for due to limited fighting technique, style, and etc.
I'd love for someone to set down and do a REALLY good Manda match
I thought I was pushing it when I turned Manda into a giant cobra in Godzilla 2014 vs Manda, but there's so much more I'm sure you could do!

That is true. Hence why, in my latest match, he isn't sticking around for long.Lain Of The Wired wrote:I think Manda matches are really hard to write for due to limited fighting technique, style, and etc.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
I know that feel guys. I wrote a Manda match (Which I'll probably rewrite in the future) and like all of you I made the match short due to his limited abilities. Its pretty hard to write with Manda...You'd probably need someone like Tom to have him going.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
Monster X Vs. Krystalak and Obsidius wasn't necessarily hard, but it was difficult to motivate myself to write it. I was in a bit of slump when it came to writing kaiju fights so I don't think of it as my best work. Usually for me the main troubles stem from finding good match ups and procrastination.

King Ghidorah (Heisei), Gigan (Showa), Megalon, and Monster X vs. Mecha-King Ghidorah, M.O.G.U.E.R.A, Super MechaGodzilla, and Kiryu has been hard to right because of a combination of me sucking at writing and laziness.

Godzilla vs Rogue Titan was a challenge, mostly because of scale. I wanted it to be epic and it was hard getting to that

Destoroyah vs. Gamera (Heisei) vs. Orga was a pain in the butt. I couldn't find any motivation to write for a long time.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
Writing SpaceGodzilla and Destoroyah vs Trilopod has been rough so far, mainly because there’s so many elements to keep track of and it’s been tough not being repetitive with the action.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
Gotta say, my Trilopod match hasn't been smooth sailing either. Jumping back and forth between things are tough as nails and i really feel like i'm just going in circles with dialogue..

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
Reviving this thread because I'm getting a pretty severe case of this.
I'm enjoying working on Goliath vs. Red King: Round 2, and i definitely plan to get it done just so i can say i contributed to welcoming back Daigoro and Goliath back to the K.W.C.. but good lord, i have been writing this thing for WAY longer than i was expecting. It started good, and i know where i want to go with now, but that came with me having to basically rewrite the entire final act because it really just didn't make any sense, and also cutting bits and pieces of other parts of it because some of it dragged out for too long.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
Reviving this thread again just to say that Gamera (Showa) vs. Gamera (Heisei) has been something of a pain in my tail. I'm certain a decent portion of that is just trying to do the general concept right, but the story itself still feels like it's missing something and I can't quite find out WHAT "something" is beyond an admittedly lackluster buildup to the main battle.

Re: Matches that were/have been hard to write?
Finished a Manda match last month, and while I finished it relatively quickly all things considered; I struggled a bit every now and then trying to come up with proper fighting choreography for the dragon. Even looking at snake videos on YouTube didn't help much.
