> from which perspective does this happen?
After years of training and starting from hyperphantasia already, there are no longer any need of perspectives in my imagination by default. There is what I called "all-in-one" rendering.
This type of visualization first became evident in 2019 when I realized I could "see" all sides of a cube with a separate scene on each side. Others who I attempted to teach this technique got headaches so they're obviously one-hearted weaklings.
Everything is all "seen" at once, from all sides simultaneously and seamlessly, its trivially done this way and very satisfying. Though I can also picture from specific perspectives as I see fit but I let it go however it feels right moment by moment.

We're going for realism, and even in jiu-jitsu, strength is not the only measure of a combatant; speed, skill opportunity and mistakes all play a part. The most skilled generally wins by a lot.

[Joy] we don't have any real Mary Sue's in this head. I guess Vend or other Dragonkin would be a challenge but even they might have weaknesses. From what I remember, even the T1000 was susceptible to extreme temperatures, so if I fought her, because my strength is gymnastics, we might hold the match perched on tight ropes above a lava lake. Unless she can survive swimming in lava or can fly, then that's just stupid. Someone like Gwen will be allowed flight because otherwise she's not strong or fast. For Ren, she'll have to fight us in our element. For me, she'll have to fight in the alleys of a mid-century European style city center where I'm capable of scaling the rough brick facades and ledges with ease, jump from rooftop to rooftop at full speed, and land from a 3rd story window without hurting myself. In my lore I was a gold medal winning Olympic gymnast. Ren is part cat so she has advantages and may be surprising. I don't intend to join her in her Shin-Jo training, I want to be surprised. Gwen on the other hand said she'll be watching closely rather than share experience.
[Bear] I don't forsee any issues with the matches since I already simulated several in the book already that were "fair" and the winner wasn't known until the end.
