Silver Crow is actually a very weak hand-to-hand combatant. He got in some good hits against Cyan Pile, but then Takumu figured him out and dominated the fight. It was only when Crow started to fly (with the advantage of the wide-open sky) that Crow could possibly win.

Crow dominated Taker in a fist-fight because Taker was even weaker in hand-to-hand combat.

Blue avatars like Pile and Sky Raker are *monsters* in direct, close-range engagement. That's what being Blue is all about. And Pile should likewise dominate Raker in places where she doesn't have room to make full use of her mobility advantage.

Likewise, Crow's mobility advantage is balanced by being weaker in a punch-out brawl. His Metal color gives him weaknesses as well as resistances, too.
