Always be sure to mention how you slash. Diagony to the left or right, vertically, or horizontally. You can also use the same method for blocking. Also be sure to put ** add to beginning and end of your move to show that its an action.
* I place my second sword, which is in my left hand, vertically above my head to blok your overhead attack. As you thrust at my midsection, I sidestep to my left, releasing you sword from overhead at the same moment. It fall harmlessly to the floor inches before my face.*
Good first attack! Try again
