Corvo & Combat
You ever think about how a single scare can change a whole fight? Let's dive into the tactics behind that.
Sure, a single scare can flip a fight if it breaks the other guy’s rhythm and throws him into a panic. You have to pick the right moment—when he’s overconfident, when the environment lets you hide a surprise, or when you know a trigger that’ll make him second‑guess. Hit that point, watch the composure dissolve, then move in fast. The real art is timing it so the fear comes just as the opponent’s mind starts to calcualte, leaving them off‑balance and vulnerable.
Exactly, timing’s everything. Focus on their breathing, that slight shift in stance. Spot the moment they’re relaxed, that one pause before they lock in a move. Hit it hard, throw a clean feint, and the fear will ripple through their focus. Then it’s all about closing the distance fast and keeping the pressure on. Keep watching that rhythm, and you’ll stay a step ahead.
Nice breakdown. Keep that focus on the little tells; that’s where the advantage hides.
