Watching this made me realize how effective flame thrower would be in the middle ages hah.

[@CoffeeSnep]

Darko Kreculj incendiary weapons were used in various forms to some extent throughout most of history. And yes, some of them were quite effective. Especially against dense formations or strongholds. Plate armor and gambeson would keep the flames away, but the heat would transfer pretty quickly. You could probably walk off a little bit of fire no problem, but if you can't get out or can't get it off of you quickly than you're screwed. I can't remember when, but primitive flamethrowers were used in ancient times. Mainly in naval warfare. The most famous example i have found was the use of Greek Fire by the Byzantine Empire starting in AD 672. It was most similar to napalm and could burn while floating on water. And yes, sometimes it would be projected and funneled in a way similar to a flamethrower, albeit not as compact.

[@franktheprank7336]

Claus with A K weights around 30kg at best, it's also tailored to distribute the weight evenly thought your body, minimizing fatigue and maintaining the center of mass. It also has a metal mail underneath and substantial padding behind it.

[@Clauswith_AK]

francisco safar 30 seems on the light side though, google says arouns 42-50.. but even if, lets talk about mobility and overheating

[@franktheprank7336]

Claus with A K the weight depends on the suit of armor your are talking about, funny but later suits like the full plated gothic armor actually weight's less than the older stiles. Now talking about mobility.....it doesn't restrict you that much, you can actually see demonstrations in youtube, just tipe "medieval armor mobility" and you will see a lot of results.

[@franktheprank7336]

Claus with A K and about overheating, well that the only point I would give you, breathing in a full suit of armor starts to get really difficult after some time, luckily for us people in medieval times noticed this so later suits of armor started to have things like visor's that you can take on and off without disarming it.

It's clear that these two were trained the same way, but have different drills and basics. Blue reloads his attacks to the side of his opponent and Black hits both sides of the body when he does so. Black also has the idea of attacking the lower arms of his opponent to weaken grip and potentially damage output, but he seems to have lost some steam to Blue's consistent body attacks as well.

So a lot of people are bashing on this video saying they have no skill they're just bashing away at each other. As someone who practices historical swordsmanship, i can see these guys are skilled at what they do, they're just playing a different game. From what i can tell the purpose of the tournament is to land as many blows on your opponent as you can. They're not trying to kill or disable each other, but particuarly in the exchange starting at around 3:00, you can see they're blocking and parrying each other decently well. They know what they're doing, they're just not playing the game you think they are.

@@berk7944 Are you literally mentally disabled? This is the dumbest comment I've seen all week. Knights were a class of men who did NOTHING BUT TRAIN specifically for mounted and armored battle.

[@lonewolfshay7712]

@@berk7944 shorter but not by large margin. Its not like they short as midgets. Infact, knights were known to be among the tallest for their time because of their better nutrition.

I've seen short stocky wrestlers lifting, slamming and knocking out taller guys cold.

[@frazier2412]

This really underlines the value of the war hammer. We got worse injuries playing with sticks as kids than these guys do fully armored... Obviously they aren't trying to actually kill each other, but if most of these blows were dealt by a weighted pick at the end of a long handle then somebody's going to the emergency room, I imagine.

[@beakerthefrog]

Because they aren't permitted to fight as they actually would in this situation. You don't "cut" at someone wearing plate. You use blunt force trauma, and grappling to thrust through joint gaps and eye slits. They generally didn't use swords against armored targets either. Pole-axes, maces, and flails were the norm.

[@GodlessMartyr666]

beakerthefrog I'm just worried someone will catch a blunt tip in the wrong spot or get hit hard enough on the head (even with a helmet and skull cap) to get seriously hurt.. Hopefully they don't use anything bigger than a dull broad sword

[@beakerthefrog]

Concussions happen from time to time I'm sure, and those can be potentially fatal, but other than that it would take something intentional, like trying to thrust through the eyeslits, which is both very difficult and very illegal. The worst that probably happens is a broken limb or two from bad falls.

Not as effective as taking the pommel or crossguard to the face

[@Timenaught]

What’s better? Punching at 45 mph(the average human swing speed)or using a five pound metal stick with more leverage and force multiplier swung at 45 mph?

[@omega42587]

So I get these are not real battles and all. But what's the point? Just clashing steel? As an MMA fan, I'm trying to figure out what's considered a hit or a point. All I see is steel clashing on purpose.

[@thatoneothergamer6158]

If you hit the body the right way with the sword 1p for every hit And jabbing or murder strokes is immediate disqualification I think

[@m4nuz]

In MMA you just hit skin x)

Pourquoi c'est l'espagnol qui a gagné?! L'anglais semblait mieux gérer? Dans tous les cas super combat!

[@b2o400]

l'espagnol gagne car il a marqué plus de points en frappant sur la tete en au niveaux du bust et le haut du corps en général, l'anglais visait pratiquement que les jambes....

Pareceu mais uma briga de rua que uma luta medieval.

[@saechabashira8380]

Alors, on sera d'accord pour dire qu'ils sont bourrins quand ils tapent ! Mais ! C'est ça qui rend le combat épique as fuck ! Au Moyen-Âge, désolé mais en combat tu cherchais pas à être stylé dans tes mouvements ou quoi en mode preux chevalier. L'impressionnant c'était la victoire ! En tout cas, beau boulot, c'est juste magnifique de voir ça et cette fougue !

[@romainburgy908]

Les techniques de combat ça servait pas à être stylé mais plutôt à pouvoir blesser/tuer l'ennemi sans se faire blesser en même temps. Si tu y vas en mode bourrin sûrement que tu vas réussir à blesser l'autre mais tu vas aussi probablement être blessé en même temps. Evidemment là ça change rien vu que les épées sont pas aiguisées et les coups d'estoc sont interdits, mais du coup ça n'a plus rien à voir avec un combat du moyen-âge. C'est la même chose dans la boxe professionnelle par exemple, ça sert à rien d'y aller comme un bourrin, il faut aussi éviter/bloquer les coups de l'adversaire en même temps.

[@loic5142]

@@romainburgy908 En l’occurrence c'est pas le tranchant des lames qui va changer grand chose contre une armure de ce style. Les épées médiévales étaient surtout très lourdes, tout de suite c'est plus le même genre de combat. Là leurs épées sont souples et légères donc ils encaissent les coups sans la moindre difficulté. Nan sérieux y'as des moment c'est niiimp xD (1:30 à 2:10) En combats réel, contre une armure comme ça t'auras plus de chance à mains nues (enfin, si t'as une armure aussi hein) Là t'es coups seront bcp plus puissants et si t'es pas mauvais en lutte tu peux déséquilibrer l'adversaire et le faire tomber, ensuite tu le bourre de coup en espérant lui faire mal ^^.

@Harunawa Kawaguchis non,dans game of throne;se sont des combats stylisés comme a hong kong!s est chorégrafier mais dans la réaliter,les combats devait ressembler plus a sa,de la boucherie?;un coup d épée lourde et coupante(pas comme dans le show qu il nous font!)ou une hache !je te laisse imaginer les dégats que sa devait causer?!

Came expecting sophisticated sword play, got two guys beating the crap out of each other

[@shutemdwn]

Jesus, can you imagine having to do that for real, to the death?

[@trazyianajones456]

Terrifying and ridiculous at the same time

[@yaleksander42]

No, because if it was an actual fight to the death it'd be waaay different. This is basically sword tag for brutes. Not saying they don't have any technique, but the rules for this sport make it look ridiculous. If they wanted to kill each other they'd try grappling and getting a dagger through the gaps of the opponent's armor. Or half swording. Or using an actual battlefield weapon, like a polearm. Longswords weren't main battlefield weapons, because they're not really effective against armor.

[@loic5142]

​@@yaleksander42 Real swords are very heavy ^^ You can break bones with this. Armor or not.

[@yaleksander42]

@@loic5142 not with full plate armor, you can't. Longswords are not heavier than 2kg and their weight distribution is very close to the hilt. If it was that easy to break bones, these guys would've hurt themselves pretty badly already

[@loic5142]

@@yaleksander42 Right, my bad. I was wrong about that : Bones can't be break with full plate armor. But when i see this part : 1:30/2:10... I see paper swords ^^ They just don't care about it.

Yeah, these guys are abyssmal swordsmen and/or fighters. Maybe take a HEMA class or two if you want to compete like this, then you actually might have an idea of how to handle a sword
