10/10 Dark Souls death noise
I heard Link in first bit.
1:55
That sound effect gave me PTSD flashbacks.
You just keep adding more and more memes.
I love it. Soon you will be a meme channel.
HEMA : Historical European Meme Art
Samuel Pasche It's finally happening. First the pommels, then context, then thrusting innuendos! On top of the meme profiles, HEMA will become an art of Kek!
Almighty kek
You say it how if it was bad
That Link scream was priceless. xD
Where?
The two of you have a fun sense of humor when it comes to the demonstration of these things its nice to know your havin fun.
you're*
subbed the instant i heard the dark souls death noise
1:50 What is that? A DEX build?
Apparently, you didn't have watched Hollywood movies, especially made in 80s-90s of last century.
Fucking dark souls fanboys, NOT AGAIN!!!
He be using that washing pole
So, is ending your opponent rightly a trick or a technique?
No, it´s a WMD...
Effective Altruist It's an ancient meme
It's a middle ages shitpost that was taken too seriously
It's just the most secret HEMA technique, that gives you power of thousends' men
None, it's a meme :(
I'm reminded by something shared with me, "do what is necessary with the least that is necessary".
Good show as always - always enjoy the bits of humor thrown in.
The thumbnail is mildly entertaining
Very well explained and technically illustrated. Thank you.
Hahaha the Link sound cracked me up
Tricks you can learn in a moment, techniques take a lifetime, that's the difference.
10/10 great video! I don't find many videos that explain things this well. I tried but did a poor job explaining things.
Great video as always, btw the ds3 death sound is great.
Good fundamentals everyone should learn, thanks for your service.
Very nice. Thank you for the upload.
Right on guys! this was a great video!
I really appreciate your style. Solid and self-critical reasoning!
I get the feeling you had a lot of fun making this one.
I'm gonna keep this simple...
Your editing is flawless.
3:12
when she kills him while he's still nonchalantly chatting had me r o l l i n g
Very cool video and illustrates how people often don't understand the mechanics of what they're trying to do. I do have a quick question - I've always been told not to parry edge to edge, but flat against the edge. Is that really not the issue that it's supposed to have been in the past?
I loved it so much at the 1:55 moment when I've heard "YOU DIED" sound xD
love the dark souls death sound
Another thing with the tippy taps is they're not super likely to end a fight or result in a kill without follow through. And against armor of any kind they would do literally nothing. Even with follow through.
Well, not everyone had plate armour ,especially not in a street fight.
Ending rightly will always work!!
Do a video about axes and fighting with and axe, please.
good stuff guys keep it up
You guys should do a video tutorial on the techniques described in the book, "Grab Them By The Crotch And Throw Them Out The Window". I think it describes some excellent techniques and principles that everyone should know about
1:08 did they suddenly increase gravity ore something?
Good video!
I have a question. Are there any sword martial arts that involve jumping like the following image?
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Angampora_sword-shield_fight.JPG
What is the name of those books that were on the table at the end?
Rofl. Perfect sound insertion choice :'D
lol. It's funy cause Martin Fabian jumps with his Zorn Oberhaus. I think a leap attack has it's special place of a technique that works.
at 1:40 Pretty much summing up the issue I have with almost every Chinese sword fighting demonstration I've seen in person and online and many Japanese sword fighting. This idea you can outmaneuver a blade...what's worse is in demonstration they usually don't attempt to duck out of the way but rather step to close in distance...without also trying to parry. 2:45 as well.
Very good
oh my god the opening so reminded me of sheldon and amy presenting fun with flags :D
"but tricks look cool..."
"but youll die..."
"at least ill die with style..."
"why not live and tell your tales?"
"SOVNGARDE HERE I COME!!!"
*while charging into battle*
Does anybody know I can get that type of 2hander at 3:00?
You can get one at Albion Swords or Cult of Athena. That's a regular longsword though, it should be around 120cm whereas zweihanders can go from 150cm onwards.
Love the sword play, and Thors Hammer!
Tell sean to roll next time, for more i frames.
She speaks awesome
I have a trick called pistol. It's probably not very old but when bladed weapons are involved it can be pretty reliable.
Shut up, Jones
Guns are gay
Where do you get your steel trainers from?
edemardil Swords used are in the description
Not even a martial artist but I'm writing a character that's supposed to be a skilled sword fight and all of these videos are a god send
Hey @Blood and Iron HEMA, even if my main area of focus right now is in lightsaber dueling; I'm really getting a lot out of your videos that help improve my studies. Thank you very much for this Channel, your videos, and your contributions.
Why did he fall backwards when she pushed his arms up?
What's the name of the sword that you used in 1:36?
Swords used are in the description
Would you guys consider feints to be tricks or techniques?
Definitely a technique. Meyer does say to be careful while using them though.
As long as you can safely get away with it if your opponent was wary of it, it's a technique. But if you turn feint into a massive twirl, it gets really dangerous.
Who's the editor?
Also what type of combat approach do you recommend? I'm joining a HEMA club soon and I want to develop an explosive assault style like Lee Smith but at the same time a quick executioner when defending but I'm not sure if it's the best approach.
That would be me.
What does your HEMA club do? I'd recommend avoiding general concepts and find what works best for you via practice. A particular style you might fancy might not be the one you are best at applying.
Academy of Historical Fencing teaches Leichtenauer longsword but accepts other styles like Fiore's (which I'm far more familiar with, understand better, and practice frequently) and from video research I found AHF do mixed style fencing, same style fencing and team activities to keep people on their toes.
Which longsword do you use for the demonstrations in the video?
Swords used are listed in the video description.
This are some valueble point that show how unarmed and armed fight are different in real application. Because you can take a punch, even strong, in a no vital point and don't care about It... With a blade...
That dark souls death noise made me follow and sub
best video
I believe I spy Master Hasselhof’s excellent treatise!
Watching this, I realized how hard it is to try and understand the shit people used to do back then in medieval times.
3:03 Isn't the thumb on the wrong side?? 🤔
That was the most leisure death ever hahaha
@1:54 - Casul.
Love the darks souls thing
In soft-combat you'll see a lot of Tricks since the head is not a valid target (to my desmay since I follow Meyer's Dussack), points are given when the weapon just touches you and weapons don't follow any real reference. Tricks are often used by the inexperienced fighters trying to gain advantage and rulings are tight. Besides there's no grappling.
So gonna try these trickniques against the heretics
1:02 Funny considering what Martin Fabian and Bratislavský šermiarsky spolok uploaded quite some time ago: ruclips.net/video/8SoCRiETBsE/видео.html
Now, how can we determine that "Springen" in Lichtenauer's school only mean "jumping into distance"rather than literally jumping?
Don't fukin' forget ur chaos twohander +5 and grass crest shield
2:51 turn the subtitle
Bonus for Zelda and Souls.
10/10 link from ocarina vfx
👍
These sound effects
You guys were actually a lot better than I thought! Not sure why I expected you guys to be mediocre
1:05 Yaaaaaaa
Nice Mjölnir u have there
this was pre cool, i hate watching sword fighting were people dont commit to their strikes and they just end up tapping eachother
You don’t gotta call out my boy Link like this 😭
😎👑👑
Tricks, when honed and perfected, become techniques. Techniques, when done poorly, are just tricks.
a hema youtube channel did a dark souls meme.
i now owe a guy 5 dollars
They did a Dark Souls!
you can understand why they covered themselves in armour
But Vegeta... Tricks are for Kids!
Hans Smirnov 😂😂😂😂😂😂
You know what, Nappa. Catch the pommel...catch it with your teeth!
Yaaay! Like a Skallagrim fanboy! Ow ow OWHOWH!
*flashbacks to Richard Marsden jumping to smack Lee Smith in the head*
real life brienne of tarth
Trick or technique??? Use whatever works. ( nice vid also)
Fiore students sweating
Lol this was hilarious.
You won me over with Dark Souls.
2:03 ...YOU DIED
No spinning. [sad face]
(good video still)
Trick usually ='s counter
It only has to work once ..
Wrong. It only needs to FAIL once.
I think Ill just shozuki
Dark souls sound lol
Dark Souls Joke, well done :D
Brienne?
So is rolling a trick or a technique?
It has an option since I may have rolled off a cliff doing so.
Either way 1:54 should have rolled. With that gear you're almost guaranteed a fastroll.
_This marker denotes a joke. If you are encountering this marker for the first time; Welcome to Earth. Atmosphere contains significantly less oxygen than advertised._
At a tournament I once saw someone who was down a whole ton of points with a few seconds left decide: "f*** it, I've already lost, I'll end it with a rolling attack to be funny." As he went to tuck his chin for the roll his neck protector jammed, causing his head to hit the floor and give him a concussion, pulling him out of the rest of the tournaments. So I guess that's also an option?
That surely makes it a technique, we have options of 'cliff', 'mis-aimed follow-up', 'being struck/stabbed in motion', ''hitboxes taking the piss' and 'concuss self'.
I've seen people in Parkour break collarbones doing similar in plain athletic clothing. Now I think on it rolling properly in armour must require a lot of trust in your fitting.
Though according to HEMA(and most practitioners), spinning is ludicrous... is it seen as a technique in any setting, or is it just a flashy trick? Just want to put the question out there since you guys didn't mention flashy spins :P
Spinning is a trick rather than technique. The benefits that spinning gives you don't give you that much with swords. They require a pretty moderate minmum of strength, so you don't have to go full spinning. Proper structure is enough.
Unless you're doing Thibault's rapier, there's actually a good use for one in there ;)
Damn I would appreciate a big female warrior with a long sword and no body sexualizing costumes in movies. Just armor, strength and brutality.
