    Only one move

    If you could only do one move (with different timings and speeds) what would it be?

    Envelopment. With a split!

    parry four riposte, or a single feint and disengage. those are the only two things i could picture pulling off on just about anyone

    I've often thought that the single disengage-if perfect-would be unstoppable. I have fenced against people whose single disengage I couldn't stop. My one working tactic against such a disengage was to guess that they were going to use it!

    Straight head-cut with an advance lunge.
    Why sabre? Because you don't take heads with the point.

    Lunge waaay faster. I'm about 6 feet 1, so I should be lunging like a fiend.

    (Maybe only 6 feet, don't know if I've stopped growing much yet)

    However, I am working on my lunge.

    You shouldn't be lunging....you should be advance lunging...

    Yeah, remember when you lunge after an advance, your final speed will be much faster - like throwing a rock forward from a moving car...

    Counter-bind in prime and then a flick to the shoulder. It's so beautiful I can almost taste it!!

    Simple, direct step-lunge. Any of the three weapons.

    It would either be Ryu's Hadoken, Akuma's Raging Demon, or Ken's Dragon uppercut.
