LordP Posted January 27, 2004 Posted January 27, 2004 There is a saberist who only uses red forward attack. They use it, and step back a step during the combo and then run forward again on their second slash. It is extremley effective and they can usually avoid blue upper cuts. How would you counter this with single saber? Kata's do not work either.
Crow_Nest Posted January 29, 2004 Posted January 29, 2004 He must be using the red DFA move, just sidestep and it leaves their back exposed to danger, so hit em with ur saber. Thats what everyone does back in the JO days.
Lathain Valtiel Posted January 29, 2004 Posted January 29, 2004 It's not DFA.. It's basically hit and run red forward. Very effective, but IMO side slashes are superior.
Sam Fisher Posted January 29, 2004 Posted January 29, 2004 Hahahaa.. just try that move with an experianced singler... guess who'll lose
BawBag™ Posted January 29, 2004 Posted January 29, 2004 Vertical slashing is a rather difficult tactic to undertake.
LordP Posted January 31, 2004 Author Posted January 31, 2004 So.... can we counter? This guy has beaten our clan leader and he is one of the lowest ranking in the clan. =\
Sam Fisher Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 Yeah, yellow is a good counter as well as a good staffer.
Crow_Nest Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 Just pick the best saberist in your clan, and ask him to beat the fella. Its quite easy to dodge that attack if you're paying attention. With staff i just play hero, even when my opponent is swing (red stance) i go infront of him and spam the fan move

Sam Fisher Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Yeah... its not 'spamming'.. its a move that people have problems with
Bishuse Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 can you saber throw? when they're attacking, they're vulnerable to throws, and that takes 30 damage off them.
Pa3PyX Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 If it's "no force saber only", they probably can't hurt you from the distance. Maybe retreat to a narrow place or close to an obstacle, and when they close in, force them against a wall? You might also try red DFA as they retreat; if they are too busy timing their moves, they may forget to sidestep and this should kill them right away; otherwise they'll probably hit you right from above...

Yes, but with staff you need to turn off 1 blade first. But im not those people who play with throws.
