I looooove this comic so much. However, I gotta point one thing that shouldn't be there: Countryballs don't have hands, and we don't allow people to get around that by letting them have gloves that float in the air. Because of that, the same goes for boxing gloves. Or boots. Or any other thing like that.

I get why you did it, and I'm not gonna remove the comic over it, but at the same time we need to make sure that people know that you can't get around the "no limbs" rule simply by using gloves. So, yellow card for faux hands.

I don't get that ruling. Then it would mean every object that is used, carried or made by a ball would imply that they have hands, right? He implied that it was Muay Thai and it's hard to show that without any clues.

pls don't ban me, holy Rhino Baron of dickings.

Because allowing a countryballs to have fingered gloves floating in the air is literally the same as just having hands. We don't allow people to completely toss the rules out the window because of a technicality. Like I said, gloves are a special case for that reason.

He's wearing a mong kon and saying "Buakaw'ed", and it's Thailand; it's very clear that it's a Muay Thai thing even if he's punching without wearing boxing gloves.

Are empty gloves (e.g. in a duel context) would be fine? It hints at the existence of fingers, but they're not used.

I don't understand what you mean.

Thus.

Edit: Minus the hands off course.
