Lord Blackadder vs. Lord Hoja SCA Rapier Tournament

[deflibrarian]

Who is the annoying retarded twit providing the commentary and annoying the crap out of the guy trying to fight?

[justinskyj]

rapier = paience fencing equals trying to do everything a second making it dull see rapier theres actually a chance to win and doesnt mater if you can parry faster than the other man an get in there lets all agree we do what we love and sfu about it i do fencing and rapier and i love them both

[giraffedog]

smeigaldavis: this is not fencing

The Internet: Bringing people together.

[smeigaldavis]

this is NOT rapier combat. it is FENCING. big differance. i was going to join the s.c.a. until i saw this. i'm not wasting my time now. how boring.

[dXAREA51Xb]

@smeigaldavis soo not boring. may look it, but its not as of now. its completely different now. consider it again.

[Xooo]

ZzzzzzzZZZZzzzzzzzz.... oh, wait!

[raijinryuu]

Grrrr hand sniping

[joetheduk]

a simple redirect would have won this match very quickly. not to mention the fencer in red's parry leaves him open in the lower left part of his body.

[ironmanalasdair]

Lol you both suck. Learn to fence.

[shanedaniel25]

no there both realy good and its hard to fight against someone good?

[ironmanalasdair]

Given that I've been a competitive fencer for some time I'd like to think I can pick slow, lazy lunges and even lazier ripostes when I see them.

[mtvreject006]

Iron, it is nice to know you were born at the current level of "skill" that you claim, but your comments of "LOL you both suck, learn to fence" show you for the gimp you are inside, Your credentials are about as solid as your argument, and I daresay both are..well limp and impotent (like you I would presume). These guys are having fun, and do not claim to be gods gift to the sport. So if you wanna be a dick to someone, go slap your leatherclad boyfriend around.

[ironmanalasdair]

Holy shit you're a homophobe. Also, you write like a virgin...so I'm guessing you're mid to late teens? Not particularly physically imposing? I actually do martial arts, and its a fact that low-level fencing tournaments(especially medieval-themed ones) attract people with little skill and less physical fitness. I used to go to them, but got sick of it. I'm not talking shit, I actually am pretty good. As opposed to you, who probably spends his time replying to 5 month old comments and fapping.

[mtvreject006]

Really? your a MA? that is sooo cool! do they teach a killer kung-fu move that will defeat an internet opponent? 2 points for you, 1: I am about as far from homophobe as one can be, and 2: teen? little? no thanks. Fapping however is awesome, you should try it. maybe then you would not feel the need to justify your masculinity on the internet. Go play with your white belt and have fun doing whatever you do. I may reply to 5 month old posts, but YOU felt the need to poke fun at a youtube video.

[mtvreject006]

Oh, and while I am here I will mention that to whomever owns this video, I apologize for the philistine above me who wanted to turn this into a troll thread. Chow, and I am done feeding the troll. Good day sir, and let your comments fall on blind eyes. lay-on gentlemen.

[ironmanalasdair]

Holy shit, what a self-proclaimed defender of the fucking faith. By the way, it's spelt 'ciao' you dumb bastard.

[nancyleeould]

Very interesting to watch...

but would have been better without the boring commentary.

[Moonshadow50]

I quite agree about the retarded comentary.This was a "Rose Tournament bout" wherein lethal strikes are not allowed and will cause the person to lose. The purpose is to wound and take the opponent's rose which is appended to the front of his tunic. Disabling an opponent by taking both arms is the preferred method to win. Strategy and delicately placed thrusts necessary, in liu of risky lunges that may prove lethal.

[vectorb]

Yay fencing! I have to comment on the foot! Keep your back foot on the ground when you lunge! Picking it up puts you off balance, but thats just my opinion!

[ShadowofTrout]

The commentary is quite retarded, I'm sorry but I would like to watch the people fencing not listen to you. And personally while I'm fighting people like you make it much worse with your retarded yelling and bsing in the back. As for the fight it was some nice hand sniping but twice you could have had a clean kill with a sweep from the looks of it.
