** [[spoiler:The un-lobotomized Dmitri Vapnoople]] is a proponent of this kind of thinking. The "first lesson" he imparts on Agatha when taking her up as an unwilling apprentice is to take ''any'' of your opponents distractions -- say, for example, a screaming VillainousBreakdown -- to eliminate them right then and there. And proceeds to demonstrate by [[https://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20190524 tossing an enemy having one such breakdown into a dimensional rift like he were getting rid of last night's trash]].

** Redcloak has always been pragmatic, with examples such as using Titanium Elementals instead of Earth because they are lighter yet just as strong (if distasteful, not being a "classic" element); walking his hobgoblin army into certain death because he only needs them as a distraction (prior to gaining a change of heart regarding racism); creating decoys of Xykon to make the heroes guess which one's real, but then having the real one take an entirely different method of approach with ''greater invisibility''; etc. Later during the siege of Azure City, Redcloak averts this when he accepts the duel with the human cleric while he still has an overpowering army (he doesn't want to waste lives on his side). Still later, however, he plays it straight when he is proposed to a fair fight [[spoiler: by Thanh]], who is held by an elemental summoned by Redcloak.

* In ''Webcomic/{{Pacificators}}'', some of the characters tend to lean towards this (especially those with the [[PlayingWithFire power of fire]] and [[BlowYouAway power of air]]), but Taffe Torbern deserves a special mention. No, it's not her special combo (kick in the knee then a heel palm strike, followed by a GroinAttack), but the fact that she is [[spoiler: [[DisabilitySuperpower deaf.]]]] Observe Gincoi's [[http://www.sailorenergy.net/MangaPacificators/MangaPacisV02CH09P152.html shock]] and [[http://www.sailorenergy.net/MangaPacificators/MangaPacisV02CH09P153.html confusion]] when his [[MakeMeWannaShout attack]] failed.
