i am attempting to dictate the fight to my opponent instead of leting them come to me and then dealing with the fight on their terms. it really is a hard point i am wondering if anyone has run into this plateu before and what they did to help get through it.

Slagar wrote:My favorite thing to do about this is post-game. When you're sparring to improve, after each loss literally (not metaphorically, literally, out loud if you have to) stop and ask, why did I lose that round? What mistakes did I make, what did they capitalize on, why did I lose? .

Instead of waiting for them to attack, then blocking with my shield, then attacking, blocking with my shield
I attacked them with my shield first, then sword.
so instead of the mantra of sword, shield sword shield sword shield
it's now shield, sword shield sword shield sword.
It upped my game alot, honestly, but I don't personally know what level you're at, or how helpful this will actually be. I dunno. Give it a try, maybe it'll help you out as well.

If you'd like to move beyond your current plateau: Try blocking with your sword more often.
