English term

he would do so in other ways.

English to Chinese Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
He wanted to please; he hated to displease. Worst of all, he hated to be disliked. Confrontation, with the prospect of dislike, was anathema to him; instead, he used his high intelligence to avoid it, if he had to get even---if get even was necessary---he would do so in other ways.

他会用除‘直接对抗‘之外的其他办法与对方打成平手

The meaning should be "in other ways except confrontation", I think
