Guitarcar's "Oh its-a-me, Fiore" edges

Swords:

Like what I said in the previous arguement, The longsword is made of better steel. The Katana could do a bit better here seeing as Fiore isnt armoured  Slight Edge: Longsword

Secondary:

The Longer japanese secondary can easiy outrange the short rondel dagger  Major edge: Musashi

Mid range:

A long stick will not well against a a weapon with those primitive yet useful tricks. Especially if that weapon can cut the stick. Im not disrespecting the Bokken or anything but werent polearm users trained in cutting the pikes in the 16th century? Major edge: Fiore

Special:

The Jutte is by far much more useable in combat and paired with Musashi's feats can overpower a stick. Major edge: Musashi

Tactics: Tie, Physchological attacks are good and all but then you realize it takes time. In a quick duel like this, its kinda a bit ficky. Charging towards your opponent with bare fists also dont happen in duels as often aswell. Duels last below 1 minute in average so dont expect these 2 specials to do anything in a quick paced encounter in Russia.

X-Factors: While European duels were indeed good and as intense as Eastern duels, Musashi had by far duelled more opponents than Fiore ever dreamed of. Fiore's tactics in duels are also just straight forward conventional, Musashi's skills were built to combat and counter those like the VC against the marines back in 1968. Edge: Musashi

Sumarry:

Musashi's better experience and training paired with his experience in disarming more conventional opponents will defeat the better armed yet unexperienced Fiore.

Looks like were gonna get a colorful pizza today I guess

Winner: Musashi
