Nonetheless I don’t know how this episode will unfold, Lane and Rantaro are basically nonexistent in the preview. One thing to note is that Silas was able to 1v1 Lane and put up a good fight all on his own while all the other bladers had to 2v1 him. This tells us that bladers who step up their game can most definitely do crazy things and it also shows us that you can actually go 1 on 1 with Lane if you’re really serious about things. All they need to do is give Rantaro some emotional boost and it’ll all be fine.
To be fair all of his losses made sense, now correct me if I'm wrong as I'm going off memory but L&D vs V&R he was able to hold back Longinus for a while and was knocked away and was finished by Tempest Break, He loses to a powerful Attack type move and was off guard kinda. With A&R vs V&R, he was taken out from Aiga and It was an attack from above and if you remember he took out Free with an attack from above, so no matter what type you're using it will always hit hard when you attack from above.
