RE: Keep Your Friends Close and Your Enemies Closer? Why Would I Keep My Enemies Close?

Keeping them at hand so you can monitor their actions is a political move. IRL I ignore people who want to be my enemy. However, in a fight, unless someone gets in a lucky punch, the closer they are to you the less overall damage they can do. No distance to wind up a strike. You can also engineer a fall so that you land on top if you're close in.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
