Be quick: Always keep on your toes and always be ready to attack, defend, or evade. You may be fighting on your own terms, but so is your opponent.

Be precise: Don't spray n' pray or hack n' slash; make every move with the intent of increasing your odds of coming out on top, or simply putting your opponent down.

Be gutsy: Passive-aggressive and tactics of attrition won't help you, only your opponent. Per rule 3, fight on your terms and don't be afraid to strike back. It's hard to come out of a Gundam battle unscathed, so trying to do so is time wasted. Instead, make sure your opponent pays the price for every hit you take.
