Which sabre fencer is the best at counterattacking?
Searching for the blade. You can always turn it into a parry if you force out a simple attack.
Also, let's get some SABER BLADE ACTION!
Before the timing changes I would have said Gu but since the new timings I would have to say Kim Junghwan
@@celestialtoystore Before timing changes, i'd say Nicolas Rousset

Derswitz, may-be? Gu and Kim Yunghwan are the top greatest in this as well, I agree.
Wow, great breakdown of that distance trap. May try something similar in foil.
Excellent again. You're killing it at the moment. I think it's worth saying that the distance trap has to be believable - attacker has to believe that defender CAN retreat and pull him short if he attacks too short distance (lunge/step lunge) - this FORCES the attacker to attack long (two-step lunge or more), and opens up the timing for the counter attack (with blockout) against the held attack.
If they don't believe then attacker can just hold distance and push defender to the back where they run out of options.
Yes, fantastic video! Better than any tactics lesson I ever received.
Distance trap works better in foil. I have seen a lot of saber fencers screw it up (I flunged them).
Amazing work you've done! I am binge-watching your videos; it is shame that I hadn't found your chaņnel before. Well, counterattacks and different tactics how to gain a legitimit right for a counterattack had been my favourites while my modest career in sabre, 1972-81. So brilliantly explained by you all this stuff; kudos!
Great video! I love watching these informational vids, I really learn a lot from them!
Glad you like them!
the coolest example for the first one is derswitz vs kim junho 14-14 at the 2018 wch
Absolutely, I luuuuw it!!! And as a great master of counterattacks, Derswitz is one of my top favourites in conteporary sabre in general as well.
Great video 👍
Ive been trying to master counter attacks lately and some of these tips are actually helping especially the distance traps, i use it for the counter attack from up also known as cobra when u hit in hand and swing back, i on purpose stupidly rush inside the middle and then just do the counter attack to the glove and run back, also the point that's very useful too but i didnt know abt the blade search trick, will use that too. Thanks 🙏
Wow! Heathcock is very good at counterattack 4 distance parries
awesome
Meanwhile in epee

A lot of these point on line ones lose right of way when breaking at the wrist.
But who cares if you can get one light.
