Add a special "deflected attack" message if you're holding a katana. - Podrick Equus - 10-16-2019
If you're holding a Katana and you manage to block an attack, it'd be cooler if the game acknowledged it, saying something like, "John Quincy swiftly deflected the Power Hammer with their Katana! What a nerd."
Another few examples from discord: "Pub McPubberson blocks the fire extinguisher gracefully, their flowing locks gracefully blowing in the wind as cherry petals float from the sky." "Pubberson Pubbery clashes with the fancy pen! That'll show them the power of true hanzo steel forged in the ancient ways and not this modern mass produced rubbish."

I vote for overly artsy comments for the sake of being a massive nerd.
This is a good.

I love more flavor text especially if it revolves around a specific traitor item like the katana. Make everyone know just how much of a weeb they are.
