Ok, so for years I've been dueling with friends, using a fairly basic technique similar to Ataru, but missing a few moves. And now that I'm getting into saber dueling with my friends, we're all wondering what styles would be more fitting to us.
Me: I'm 6'4 232lbs, so I have alot of weight to move around, but I still manage to be quick on my feet. I've always been an aggressive-defensive fighter, you know, countering my opponents moves instead of defending. I have been known to grapple if my opponent gets close enough, but due to my size I have much more reach and tend to keep out of reach.
Friend 1: He's 5'10, weight unknown, but he's a powerbuilder, and has alot of strength to use (I've been working with him on how to control it, so he doesn't break his saber when he gets it.) but is far from agile. He has great reflexes, but is slow on his feet. He's also very aggressive, almost always attacking, and dodging instead of blocking or attempting to counter.
Friend 2: He's 5'11, weight also unknown, very small, and pretty light on his toes. He's agile, and his size makes dodging easy. He blocks, but not often. He's very passive and prefers to dodge around. More of a parry, run, parry, run until Friend 1 has swung out and is gasping for air.
Big thanks before hand. Also, if you can recomend sabers as well, that'd be nice. As I'm the only one who's bought a combat capable saber (from ultra sabers, but I still plan to get another or two.) and they're still deciding.
