The differences between fighting skilled and unskilled opponents can be many and varied. Skilled opponents think more deeply and respond better to what they're given, but can be fooled by feints and traps that unskilled fighters may never even perceive. Unskilled fighters can be wildly unpredictable and hard to strike without also being struck, but with a little care their ignorance of more advanced ideas can be taken advantage of. Each poses it's own problems and must be handled rather differently.

Very well thought out content, which will be very helpful for beginners and advanced fighters. I often pray the same concepts but instincts take a long time to be "rewired".

@resolvedinsteel Месяц назад

It's true! There are certainly times when I'll end in a double hit and upon reflection can see that I ignored a threat I should have heeded but in the moment I was too invested in my attack 😅

@Leif3GHP Месяц назад

This is a great video. From coming across your channel before, I thought you only used saber.

@resolvedinsteel Месяц назад

Thanks! Nah we have classes (and videos) for Rapier, Saber and Longsword. There's just so much high quality longsword content out there already.

@Leif3GHP Месяц назад

@@resolvedinsteel that's great! I'm not even into longsword. I was just surprised. I took fencing in college, so I've been interested in getting into rapier and saber as well.

@johnnybostonforever Месяц назад

@@resolvedinsteel you pronounced his name quite well

Where's the part where you own some noobs using these techniques?

@resolvedinsteel Месяц назад

"Excuse me student of mine, would you mind if I put our sparring footage in a video about how to fight noobs with bad technique?" *loses one student* XDXDXD

@GargoyleBard Месяц назад

I'd be down -one of your students

@sergemarlon Месяц назад

@@resolvedinsteel That would be a very poor student indeed. Not likely one to keep up the sport if suggesting their beginner form was bad. I liked to think most recent pupils would be open to the fast track of learning through 1 to 1 coaching and would jump at the chance to participate. I also like to think in ideal situations, so maybe I'm completely off here.

@sergemarlon oh I'm just joking about the actual quitting things haha. Really I just try not to cast anyone in poor light if I can help it. Sparring is sparring of course but featuring someone in a video specifically about it seemed distasteful 😅. Thanks for your comments though, cheers!

@sergemarlon Месяц назад

@@resolvedinsteel lol yes I totally agree. They would need to be a brave sport.

@ZerusantAsh Месяц назад

So... "The best swordsman does not fear the second best. He fears the worst since there’s no telling what that idiot is going to do" is just cope for bro. If you loose to a noob you will get ratio-d... I see

@resolvedinsteel Месяц назад

To a certain degree you're not wrong. Dunno if it's cope per say, and I wouldn't say the "worst". The worst swordsman is likely not a challenge in any way. But a wildly unpredictable but physically capable, young and impetuous fencer with little or no training, certainly warrants observation before engaging.
