Two longswords versus 1 Messer and Shield. Sparring Experiment
2Just for fun we decided to do some 2v1 sparring.
As a #dualwielder of sorts, I thought I might be alright against two longsword fighters.
Didn't really happen.
on a few of the exchanges I managed to do some damage to one opponent then move into the second.
looking back, I think I should have played much more aggressively or maybe even more defensively. I should have at least picked one...
I'm thankful that my opponents didn't really work together all that much, as they would have definitely overwhelmed me. They did manage to do so on a couple of passes.
I ended up in a lot of doubles, whereas I should have probably focused on self preservation
Fun little practice though, and something I'm looking forward to trying more of.
Adding a second opponent does definitely change the game.
