About the Emo Kid defense problem.

How about a skill you get when you become a emo kid, called “cut”.

Cut would raise your offense by x, but lowering your max ego by y%, and defense by z.

Would be hard to code, but it’d be a better way to play a emo imo.

Would be easier just to lower defense emos get. But still the defense gain from .moar files still makes it hard to lose ego.

EDIT: Oh and cut is stackable BUT, when you die you lose its effects. Thus solving the Geronimo! problem.
