[quote=@MelonHead] Where is the time delay between your character raising his sword to parry the attack (which obviously has to happen at the point where Brennus' move is completed) and then relinquishing a hand on his sword to reach out and grab Brennus' wrist? Are you saying your grab is faster than Brennus' back-step and pulling his arm back? I don't see how that's possible unless Florian has supernatural speed. Or are you taking an additional step forward after the parry? In which case they are matched in action, so it must be that Florian is just faster for some reason, as he has to cover that distance where-as Brennus just has to extend it. (all of this is in response to the idea that the grab is inevitable) [/quote] Read Sathanas reply again. That isn't what he says. [quote=Sathanas Rex] Brennus could push himself back with his right leg the instant before Florian's grapple connects [/quote]
