the timing is a bit tricky, but if you pull it off you can send the assfighers crying home to mama. when your opponent stops to pull off his backstab/sweep, catch some air with the medium finisher. you'll float safely over the animation and smack him in the back with your saber. not only is it stylish, but it's often a one-hit kill. it's guaranteed to piss 'em off. i ruined a couple of ass-fighters' games with this move.

I saw someone do that to one of my teammates in a CTF game the other day. Looks REAL cool. I suspect it would get you killed more often than not though. Usually when I see a backsweep starting, I back the hell up.

Yep it works for sure but you still have to be very careful on the timing.

 

What is the medium finisher?

You should have brought the game and read the manual like the rest of us. Its when you jump-flip in the air and do a downward sweeping attack below.

ahh, so this is the red stance right? where you swing and then jump in wiht a top to down slash? unless i have my tactics misnamed, i believed that dfa is when you jump stright into the air and swing directly beneath you.

actually that's the medium finisher, this is the yellow stance....

Actually it is a really effective move.

You can turn your mouse as you come down and keep the saber in contact the whole time for some pretty big damage.

And you can't beat it when it comes to a "style kill", it just looks too cool.

The Medium Finisher rocks! If you train good enough you can kill instantly with it!

 

my bots have a very hard time fighting me since I hardly ever stray from the medium stance:D

Actually the term DFA is somewhat confusing because it is used for the medium finisher as well sometimes. Some people call it yellow DFA. The term Death from Above also fits.

 

When referring to DFA however, mostly the red stance finisher is meant.

 

Just so that you know. These terms are invented by the community so reading your manual doesn't explain what DFA means.
