Here is an analysis of some advantages and problems you might encounter, Droviin.
The size/mass/power strategy will probably be very effective against those smaller than you, especially if you invest in armor. If you come up against me, i'll probably land a quick wrap shot or pick as you bash me, then go flying away, because your huge, i'm tiny, and physics sucks like that. You take the hit on your armor and may very well take me out before I recover.
Lets say you come up on Ohtar. The two of you are similarly equiped, and both large, so you'll have a good hard fight.
But what if you encounter Postal? You bash him, he doesn't budge. Lets say he has a punch shield, you knock it out of the way with your first blow, but before you can bring your sword around again, he has re-positioned it. Meanwhile, Postal is quick as hell, and has been raining shots in on you this whole time. Odds are you won't make it out of that one alive.
Seems to me this strategy will give you an advantage over me, but a disadvantage against those your size with three to four times your speed.
