The clashing and slashing of steel is so satisfying for me. I love a good clash of combat, and the Black Knight has some serious skill

This sport will get so much larger. They should have other fun rounds such as capture the flag. Or an Annex game mode.

My experience with longsword fencing has taught me that it's overwhelmingly shoulder bashes followed by side light punishes and, occasionally, an unblockable finisher. ;p

Feint the top unlockable into crushing counter. Works 90% of the time

As an IMCF longsword fighter.... I do not want to fight the guy in the black brig. He's got some insane speed and tenacity.

He's fast but has terrible balance. He's just just more on an offensive fighter; the other guy did a decent job at parrying.

You don't know much about physics do you? Steel doesn't cut like paper. Been watch to many movies if you ask me... :P

Because they're blunt plus good luck cutting through steel like a butter.

When they fall onto the ground you can slide a knife into some of the cavitites of the armor. Either that or a brain injury from blunt impact on the head. Those where the most probably causes for armored knights to die on the battlefield.

@Forlornguild 2 жыл бұрын

They moved away from swords, to hammers, and rapier swords. Hammers to dent, or pointy ones to pierce the armor... and rapier type pointy swords to poke in the joints.

@@speakupriseup4549 The point isn't the danger involved in the duel, but the skill and ability displayed by the combatants. Yes, in real combat war hammers would have made it quicker, but so would a glock, handgrenade, or ballistic missile. Notice the point? Just because it was more effective doesn't mean they should use it in the duel. If the point was to beat the enemy into submission, of course they wouldn't have used longswords. That being said, the point isn't to beat the enemy into submission, the point is to have a *longsword* fight. If it's boring, that's your opinion, but that doesn't give you permission to bash someone else's enjoyment of the fight, or the sport in general by calling it larp.

@roybatty- 2 жыл бұрын

It's futile to expend this much energy using a sword against a fully armored opponent. In reality, the stronger and more skilled knight would close the distance, take him down, mount him and thrust a dagger into a gap in the armor.

@quint2885 2 жыл бұрын

This is tournament fighting, as was done in those times. A show of strenght, speed and stamina, not an attempt at killing.
