  • Punching down is an order of magnitude more aggressive than punching up.
    • When the little guy feels threatened he might punch up.
    • In response, the big guy then might punch down.
      • "He started it!"
    • But punching down is an order of magnitude more aggressive than punching up.
    • Because you really could cause a game-over for the other player, with the same units of force.
