If people want to leave it 100% up to chance, that's their prerogative. I still see it as a crutch (not in a bad way).
You lose the need for modifiers when you are actively roleplaying them out in a fight where both parties sort of understand body anatomy, handicaps, and the like. Everyone has a chance in fights, skill levels aside.
My second sensei was around 5th dan? He should know how to block his face? One of my students, 2nd kyu brown belt, fakes him out and nails him in the eye with a very well placed side kick. Even though there are different levels of skill, doesn't mean lower tier has to lose. Things don't have to be predetermined to lose rolls, but that's just me and my experiences.
Rolls for me take away the fun, personally. But then again, I don't RP characters who are meant to be gods of combat just so the duels can be fun. I actually avoid them with random people because I find my head spins when it's left up to rolls and things that shouldn't be possible are happening in emotes.
I can totally get with you on that, I like the RNG, you like the probability (correct me if I goofed the word I was thinking of). So really the key to git gud at RP combat is to have fun.
