Bakugo is quick to test them!

"Get back down, Deku!" Bakugo roared as he used explosions to propel himself upwards. Izuku briefly questioned whether the rider leaving their team was allowed, before remembering that penalties only applies if the rider touched the ground, unless someone else deliberately knocked them off their teammates, in which case, the one doing so would be penalized instead. No rule against fliers temporarily leaving their teammates to go on offense.

"Denied!" Momo declared, firing a capture net at Bakugo.

"Get that weak shit out of here!" Bakugo snarled, blasting aside the net, and approaching. Unfortunately for him, one of the drones flanked him and nailed one of his hands with capture foam while the net had his attention. He growled, losing momentum.

"I wouldn't try blowing that off!" Mei called cheerfully. "Contained blasts backfire like a bitch!" Izuku decided against questioning why it sounded like she spoke from experience. He could damn well guess why.

Unable to stay balanced in the air with just one hand, Bakugo reluctantly went back down to his team, aided by Sero's tape. "Damn it, Deku! You're a camping bitch!"

"It's a legitimate strategy!" Izuku called back down to Bakugo as Ochaco stuck her tongue out at the angry young man.

"Get down here and fight like a man!" Bakugo bellowed, shaking his free hand up at Izuku while Mina worked with her acids to try to dissolve the capture foam on his trapped one.

"Nah, I think I'll save that for round three, assuming we both make it there!" Izuku waved, mocking Bakugo. "Which you might not, you might want to check your head!"

Bakugo stiffened, and checked, before realizing Izuku was right, his headband was missing. "Later, Class 1A trash!" Monoma said cheerfully, twirling the pilfered headband on his index finger as he and his team moved away, cackling and mocking Bakugo about how easy it was to take it while he had been preoccupied with arguing with Izuku about his "cheap tactics."

A vein pulsed on Bakugo's head as he processed this. "...new plan. We **** those extras first, then get the ten million points!" he snarled, which his teammates were all too happy with. Getting the ten million points seemed too risky now, getting more points first was the more sound option.

Meanwhile, Team Todoroki was moving about the field, Todoroki keeping his eyes narrowed. "...I still want those points," he muttered.

"Are you serious?" Kaminari asked. "They look pretty entrenched up there! We seriously going to commit to that? Because I don't like our odds!"

Todoroki considered for a moment. "...we wait on it for now. See what everyone else does to probe the defenses if they do, get some other headbands to secure our position, make a plan in the meantime, then near the end, we make a bid for the ten million points," he ultimately decided on a fairly safe plan. He wasn't going to risk not being moving on to the third round, but he wouldn't give up on going for first place entirely either.

"...sound plan," Itsuka agreed.
