[quote=@MelonHead] Yeah, as I've mentioned I'm still learning swordplay myself and it's hard to understand on the purely theoretical level I have to experience it. I suspect that considering he launched his strike left to right he'd be leading with his left hand on the grip, but he was leading with his right hand in the first slash. I figure for an experienced swordsman the change-over wouldn't be that difficult. I should point out I'm only -this- unforgiving when playing a very specific character arch-type usually, which is this exact sort. You can't really afford to give your opponent an inch when your character is just a hulking giant with a sword and no reliable ranged capability what-so-ever. [/quote] Reversing would mean he'd need (assuming he's using it with two hands) to reverse from a palm down grip for his right hand (assuming this is his dominant hand) to a palm down grip. Which is why I found it odd since that takes just a tad longer to do than merely sending the tip of the sword into a slight turn (resembling a clockwise turn) and flipping that same edge and sending it the other way without losing to much time. It'd be a very fast movement Dj might not have time to even block while retaining your momentum. Anyway, I of course assume Judgment is using his weapon to the best of his ability(he has a huge amount of training of not experience), I just wanted to know if he was using one hand or two hands.
