Ghengis Khan was a master tactician, often employing psychological warfare to help ensure victory.
Examples:
Ghengis would order all of his men to tie what were essentially scare crows on their spare horses when running into battle as it would appear that his army was 4x bigger. Plus if one of the fake riders took 2-3 arrows and didn't seem to bleed or flinch even, that would be fairly intimidating to the enemy.
Ghengis would sack an enemy city, then promptly leave only a scouting party behind. The scouting party would return to the city and massacre anyone trying to put the place back together, then pile all of their heads and limbs in separate piles. To send a message to any passerby.
Obviously times are different and we're talking about a sport here not actual combat. That being said, how good would you sherdoggers say Conor is at attacking his opponents with psychological warfare? He bombards them relentlessly from what I can see. I'm sure there is a world of things that I don't see happening though.
