I disagree, taking into mind the nature of his attack. If I understand what you're saying, of course. 

The thing about it is that as Brennus' attack completes, he's been parried by Florian. To take any further action, Brennus needs to now bring his left foot forward to re-balance himself, considering how far ahead his right foot is. At this point, Florian has control of his sword arm. This is what I mean by the attack being slow. 

And at this point, there's not a lot Brennus can do.

Uh... or he can just bring his right foot back, disengaging easily was the entire point of my attack, the movements involved are small and cautionary, hell, I even said at the end of my post that was the entire vibe of the move. Fuck me, Brennus barely even moved his upper body with the attack, he didn't turn his entire body into some rending instant kill with a wooden sword strike, he's not throwing a fucking sledgehammer blow.

Plus, Florian's sword was in a purposeful useless position to block an upper body attack, as he left the entire area exposed. This meant there was a time delay in carrying out his own move, so this idea that Florian is finished with everything infinitely quicker is to my perception illogical. 

Anyway, I'm going to stop arguing about the situation before I've even made my post, though if you're so sure that the opening move had somehow offered you an instant grab you're going to be dissapointed I suppose.
