Hey Rush,
I do not mean to insult your intelligence, but you seem somewhat new to this style of fighting. Allow me to give you some pointers to help you in the future. First, try to be more descriptive with your wording. As of right now your attacks are vague, you do not state the angle or direction, speed or strength they are coming with, which leaves me to guess all of that. I give your character the benefit of the doubt when it comes to skill, but others may not be nearly as nice as I am.
Also, please try to visualize what exactly your character is doing. As an example, in your last post you state you leap in the air, and land behind me, try to sweep my legs off the floor and then slash at me with a series of slashes. That is a lot of actions in one post.
How high did he jump? Keep in mind I do have a long sword, so unless you are jumping near 12 feet in the air it would be pretty easy to simple reach out and slice the bottom of your legs/feet. Now, take in mind the time it takes someone to leap that far and land, turn around, then sweep at my legs. Compare that against what it takes for someone to merely turn around.
Again, I am not trying to insult you or make fun of you. I’d simply like to help you improve on your technique a bit. I enjoy this sort of combat and am extremely laid back, so I will let this sort of stuff go in a non-tournament setting such as this.
If you have any questions, or if I fail to be clear in my posts, please let me know. Thanks.
