Array 
the name of this move? ok i have a move that no one can perry but i dont know hte name of it and everyone i go against want to know the name of it. obviously im not going to tell them, i just want to know for myself.
i just start out in the 6 line, and do a faint of strait thrust on the outside of their blade, then as they react to it i disengage, bring my arm around in some crazy whip like motion and plant the tip in their chest.
after typing that it sounds like a normal faint of strait thrust, to a disengage but it has way more whip and motion to it than that actual move.
any clues? haha sorry if this is just some dumb noob question. Archaic ghostly echoes breathe like thunder of the storm. A tempest fools miscall divine as they crouch awaiting dawn. Their ignorance has forged for me, over centuries a sword. Burnished to flash like lightning on the precipice of war. The wolves are dead in Albion whilst the passive flocks roam free. This, my penetrant spearhead shalt pierce these foul, trespassing breeds!

And I tend to agree with EDew that there are some people able to parry it.

Or not parry at all: "feint of straight thrust on the outside of the blade"?
I think my "reaction" would be....fleche!

Sounds like maybe you're breaking up the timing (broken-time attack?) by pulling your weapon way back so that the parry doesn't come at the right time.
And yeah, there are people who can parry it. Help! I'm 'fallen' and I can't get up!

Yeah, sounds like a feint-disengage, with a lot of extra, sloppy hand movements thrown in there.

I think he described only one, or maybe two extra, sloppy hand movements.

It sound's like a feint-deceive with a chest flick thrown in for good measure.

And yeah, there are people who can parry it. Actually its called losing the attack by pulling your arm back, and then attempting to whip the blade into the chest.
Call it "The Angry Dragon" Ich steige ab, Hab keine Zeit, Muss jetzt zu den anderen Pferden, Wollen auch geritten werden
C'est pas la chute, c'est l'atterrissage.

Call it "The Angry Dragon" Lost tempo attacks are valid actions sometimes...although I agree, THE ANGRY DRAGON is a great name for it. I now dangle to the left....my tassle. Get your minds out of the gutter.

Would Mjollnir pass the 500g weight test?
I await the opportunity to referee a foil bout between Thor and Odin...
