  • In reality, the person who gets the drop - or strikes first often wins the fight; regardless of weapons or techniques.

    Surprise is the most effective weapon there is.

    Many people actually freeze, or at least pause, if attacked; which provides time for a 2nd and possible 3rd blow to land.

    Very few people can instantly respond with an effective counter-blow.

    Only the strongest or most experienced can come out of that freeze and respond effectively. It does happen; but, is not nearly as successful as a % of wins in a fight as the person who strikes first with surprise.

    • Also how long would it take to cast a spell vs a quick draw. Does the wizard go for offense first or defense?
