Do you need a surefire way to get your ass kicked? Run into battle talking about how you have something to protect, and you'll inevitably get the shit pounded out of you. Consider the 3rd Inu Yasha movie. Let's see how having something to protect helps Inu Yasha against a legion of zombie samurai:

Their formula is straightforward yet highly effective:
1. Start with a perfectly rational conversation
2. Insult your opponent's background and values
3. Exchange threats
4. Conclude with a simultaneous threat
5. Beat the shit out of each other
