The Next Level of Swords

[The_Empire]

Yea I forgot all about that.

*SMH*

 

[KeotsuEclipse]

*Takes a basic stance with the bokken held straight out in front of me, at a slight angle.*

Again.

 

[The_Empire]

i run at you with my sword in both of my hands on my right side. i do a diagonal slash from the ground to your right shoulder that knocks your sword up in the air. i then do a horizonal slash from your right shoulder to your left shoulder.

*As you come at me, I let you knock my sword away. But, as you do so, and while your arms are up in the air and before you go into the horizontal slash, I use my left hand and grab your right arm just above your elbow, and in the same movement I sidestep in an arc so that we are side by side. While doing this, I reach over and grab your behind your neck with my right hand, and then turn my body almost like I'm going into a dodge roll, but I pull you while I'm doing it, causing me to flip and toss you onto the ground.

I then take a step back, and grab the bokken as it comes down, allowing you to stand back up.*

Not a bad move, not a bad one at all.

 

[The_Empire]

thx

i stand back up rubbing the back of my neck with my left hand, i hold my sword with my right hand.

 

[KeotsuEclipse]

thx

Sorry I took so long to reply. I kinda took the day off.

Alright, this will be the last round, and I want you to fight continuously for three turns, and then we'll resume training.

*Holds my blade in front of me with it at a slight angle.*

Now, come at me with everything you've got!

 

[The_Empire]

I run at you with my blade on my left side both of hands on it. I do a diagonal slash from the ground to the middle of your stomach. Then when my sword gets to your stomach, i bring it straight up. I then rotate my shoulders to the right of me and do a diagonal slash from your left shoulder to the bottom of your rib cage in the middle. I then spin my body to my left making the blade slice through to your right side.

I then spin my body to my left making the blade slice through to your right side.

*As you come at me with the first slash, I step backwards and to my left, in an arc step as you come at me, putting me on your right side, using my own bokken to push your blade aside, away from me, as I do. From this position, I watch your sword, and as you bring it back around on me for the diagonal slash, I counter by making the opposite direction slash, causing our blades to make an X. As soon as our blades touch, though, I release with my left hand and reach through your arms, grabbing your right elbow, and pull, allowing me to throw you on the ground.*

when you grab my elbow i kick you on your left side with my right leg. i jump back do a horizonal slash from your left side of your stomach to the right. then i bring m y sword down to your waist and do a diagonal slash from your waist to left shoulder. i side step to your left and at the same time i rotate my shoulders to my left to cut your head off

*Because of the way my movement works, and the speed at which the throw happens, you lifting your leg to kick me would actually unbalance you more, allowing my throw to work easier, without me releasing you.*

One of the wost things you can do when grappling is weaken your stance.

 

[The_Empire]

how do i weaken my stance

 

[KeotsuEclipse]

how do i weaken my stance

When you have both feet on the ground, your weight is stably dispersed up it, allowing you to brace.

When you lift your leg to kick, all of your weigh is balanced upon the one leg you have left, meaning any push or pull can alter your center of gravity - and since I was going to throw you, giving yourself only one leg to stand on makes it pretty much impossible to brace yourself against the throw, meaning there was nothing you could do to stop it.

 

[The_Empire]

oh okay then, i read wat you had posted wrong

 

[KeotsuEclipse]

Anyway, I don't really think you need much training. o_o

You have a lot of knowledge - you just have a problem with not reading your opponents moves right, and your flow form one turn to the next is choppy - individually though, you're great, especially for not starting out much.

I just think you need a bit of practice. ^_^ I advise you to go read some old sword fighting threads, either in the Naruto and Bleach RP, and examine how people flow from turn to turn.

You'll find that if you just review old fights, you can actually learn a lot. ^_^

 

[The_Empire]

Alright I will do that

Well I think I really didn't know how to dodge and block some attacks until you taught me.

you are a great teacher jutsu to let you know ^_^

Well, in that case, give me a review of all the ways you know how to dodge with - I'm here to teach you, so by gosh, I'm gonna do it right. xd

And thank you. ^_^

*Vertical: side step, cut a cartwheel, half step
*Horizonal: step back, cut a backflip, half step
*Diagonal: cut a backflip, cut a cartwheel, half step, step back
*Stab: side step, half step, cut a cartwheel

I think this is all, unless i forgot something or put something that doesn't suppose to belong

No, actually, that's very good.

I'm going to add a few more things, for good measure, though:

• Sweeps: Jump back
• Rising slashes, jump back, or to the side.
• Spinning rising slashes: Jump back, at an angle
• Horizontal: Duck underneath

 

[The_Empire]

thx for the added info

 

[KeotsuEclipse]

No problem. ^_^

I want you to meet me sometime in the next month in the Bleach RP, and we'll spar and I'll see how you've progressed, okay?
