Eric vs Noah 10/26/17

As you can see class the halberd usermade a fatal mistake as he did not scream "Ad mortem, inimīcus!" Once during this whole fight.

"I bet he'd do better half swording"

*he finally scores by half swording

"hey, I was right"

*halberd dude gets serious with some swings

"fun while it lasted"

I wouldn’t have minded defending my honor in P.E.

[jaredbowman]

I do appreciate that the longsword user switched to half-swording to get inside the halberd's guard. A smart change in tactics that appeared to be effective.

Youd think he never pvpd a day in his life.

Never run into a straight sword r1 spammer unless youve stacked POISE.

That's why using a halberd, different from movies and kid's tales, was the most used weapon in the Battlefront along with axes... Long swords used to be backup weapons.

[inbredbanana]

Didn't roll around and backstab. Truly honorable fighters.

[acvarthered]

And that is with a poorly designed halberd. Imagine how lopsided it would have been if he had a properly shaped halberd and he could trap his opponents weapon consistently.

0:42 such a sick play from the longsword user.

[kylestanley]

I liked how the halberd user maneuvered his weapon. He was quick to use both ends and switch guards, rather than being stiff with it. Very nice.

Why the half swording works:
Against the halberd, the reach disadvantage is so severe, that even an extra foot or two makes little difference. However, gripping at the half sword means that he equalizes another great disadvantage which is leverage. Polearms have fantastic leverage advantage, and this helped him to get in close enough to attack.

Spear soldiers is such a META in medieval time.

Don't mind me, I'm just here before my weekly D&D game in case my DM tries to bullshit me again.

[AbyssalPlague]

Man, Halberds are just awesome. You've got the range, a spear and an axe head all in one weapon.

[mcqpdeu]

0:17 I have wondered what the tail of halberd would do. TY 4 showing me the good example.

Shoul have used Champion's charge and then hit with a charge attack

When you finally invest enough Strength stat to use the Halberd
