then i think that would classify you as more of a flow fighter, or a reaction fighter
Arrakis wrote:Huh. I just don't think that I can really have a plan that works for all types of fighters, so I lock my defense down really hard and try to get them to show me where they're weak. Then, I formulate a plan and throw combos. I may be some weird hybrid.

A freeform fighter does a spin move and blocks a shot by flipping his shield behind his back as he kills the guy. You say "how the hell did he do that?" Half the time even he doesn't know.
Personally, I believe that "flow" fighters can only be effective in a holistic sense (field fightin', 1v.1, lines, all that other jazz) if they also integrate some level of technical prowess.
