Daddy Skall is just leveling up his One-Handed
and his two hands (hopefully it heals)
I wish people would watch these sparring videos more.
It would be incentive to post more of them, obviously.
Well, they're my favorite of his videos, so I'd also appreciate more of this content. X3
@@Ranstone, I concur.
They are the whole reason i found and subscribed to his channel, so im inclined to agree. :P
If you really want to incentivize them, patreon and request them there. There's optimizing for views and optimizing for patreons
Way better then i exepected and intense. Maybe they dont know what they are missing
One handed or not , good to see ya sparring again. Right on. 👍🤘
Thanks for the commentary. That was a great class! I didn't even realize I landed the hit on Vincent in that last exchange.
"Repeated impact could cause brain damage" as he repeatedly hits everyone in the head.
Lol
He is playing the long game if all his opponents become retarded he is going to have easier time winning
Maybe he's just trying to prove a point to his opponent to not leave his/her head exposed too much? Ya know, knock some sense into them??
Bad joke I know. I'll see myself out now
i dont think the point he was trying to make was: "dont hit your sparring partner in the head". But more like "be careful when you hit the Head, Dont flail on him like a caveman"
I particularly enjoyed this video. I quite like the Messer, and I always enjoy seeing good Messer use. Your Messer use was a lot more like what I read in the treatises than usual. Good binds, winds, and grapples. A lot of videos of Messer sparring I see use it more like a short saber, but you used it like a Messer.
Probably my favorite video of yours in some time.
My favorite genre of your videos!
You did well even with a crippled arm!
I would like to thank GOD and From Software for releasing the first ever legit trailer of Dark Souls 4!
potatomato :p more like sekiro; loving the deflect system!
Hidetaka said he wants to make story orientated game
Fancy seeing another potato here! s2

I respect how much info you have in the description that's RELEVANT.
Rhike Mordhau when?
Lovely, ugh it's so frustrating wanting to train hema when there's no hema club in my town
de donde eres ?
Manuel Toloza I know. The closest one for me is an hour away. So no way with my old junky car.

@@MandalorV7 I'd love to have a hema an hour away, the closest one for me is a 9 hour bus trip
The closest one to me would be several thousand kilometres to the west. T_T
Keep doing these types of vids please. I love a real understanding of an actual fight
Dude wtf, im subscribed, clicked the bell thing and still i have to actively search for your videos... do i have to send a hand written letter to youtube so they can understand that i, in fact, want to see your videos and be informed when you upload a new one?? Smh
youtube bell doesn't work properly, dude. It actually doesn't work at all
I don't think I ever rooted for Skall this hard.
There is not a single type of content that I enjoy quite as much as commented sparring. Stall I would love to see you do more commentary videos on sparrings!
I noticed it only because the poll you made. Awesome video
I saw your community post on this video. I genuinely enjoy these sparring videos, but I think the RUclips algorithm doesnt.
I’ve been watching Forged in Fire recently, and after watching the judges attempt to use the weapons they haven’t trained in, I’ve come to the conclusion that it would be really cool to have Skallagrim as a guest judge in the final round!
These sparring videos are my favorite
Nice sparring and commentary! Skall, you'd have liked the point system they used at National Tartan Day - 2 points for the sword arm instead of 1! Really messed up my point totals - I like a lot of belly shots and upper leg shots (used to be 3 and 2, but both were only 1)...
Wait, two points for the sword arm, and only one for head and torso?
Hmm... That seems like a recipe for bad habits... I don't want to be that guy who's pretending to be a keyboard expert, but in the sword-fighting I used to do, hand's didn't even count, as it taught people to attempt solid hits instead of relying on arm snipes.
I suppose if you're hit in the hand, you're just as "Out of the fight" as if you got decapitated, but I'm still skeptical... Something tells me this is going to be my shower thoughts for the next week or so. Good food for thought...
Why did they value the sword arm above the rest?
@@Ranstone It's not one for the head.
The head is 3 points, the sword arm and lower legs are 2, and the rear arm, torso, and upper legs are 1.
David because if your sword arm is disabled against an opponent skilled enough to disable it your chances of winning are almost nonexistent.
@@Ranstone Head: 3, Sword Arm/ Lower Leg: 2, Torso/Upper Legs/Off-hand: 1...
Normal: Head: 4, Torso: 3, Leg: 2, Arm: 1...
good to see these videos make a return, these sparring vids are my favourite type of video you make.
Damn Kat and Vincent going at it! I like the aggressive style they have with the longsword and follow-ups they make.
Kinda want to make those sparring videos with my own group too
Really appreciate the re play and commentary, it can be so easy to get lost watching unedited sparring. Those were some excellent exchanges
Good to see you back in the saddle, and I love the mixed weapon sparring
Even if you don't know much about sword fighting you can still learn so much from this video. 10/10 would recommend watching.
As a hema begginer ive gotta say these are my favorite of your videos, its great to see sparring and hear the commentry on what works and what doesnt. Keep up the good stuff
Sparring videos with commentary was the reason I subscribed to this channel. I'm surprised people don't watch these.
Finally, more sparring. This is how I noticed your channel, and this is what I liked it for. Blade reviews etc. You find elsewhere, but there is pretty much no good commented sparring footage of HEMA on the internet
I don't know if you'll see this or not, however I'd just like to say that since I found your channel last week I've been binge watching your videos like crazy, this is exactly the channel I've been looking for, and even though I don't have a lot of money right now I'll definitely send whatever I can your way whenever I can, but anyways thanks a ton for the awesome videos, keep up the amazing work!
I'm here after seeing your post, I didn't have time to watch it when I saw the notification and kind of forgot about it. Now that I'm here I'd like to say this is a very good video, the commentary is probably my favorite part
This was NOT in my feed and this is THE ONLY THING IVE SUBBED FOR
The lighting and quality are alot better in this sparring video, I love your discussion videos but sparing videos and definitely well appreciated
I honestly wasn't aware of this video until your recent post about it. I really enjoy this, especially with you explaining in detail who got what hits in and how they might have prevented it. I hope a lot more people will follow my example and watch this, I'd like more of that type of content.
This is pretty sweet. You are going through this at a speed which I can easily follow. I may be a member of a small minority of your viewers, but I definitely approve of this video.
I would love to see more content like this! The commentary pointed out so much that I would have missed otherwise because of how quickly things can happen during a fight.
I've been trying to find enjoyable HEMA sparring videos to watch, and so far this has been my favorite! Well done, Thanks you!
Really nice video! It's great with the commentary, slow motion and showing the hits. Extremely informative.
Skall, this is cool stuff. I know it isn't your most popular type of videos, but I really enjoy them. Thanks!
Calling and editing the sparring matches like this really allows anyone to get into it . I have 0 exp sword fighting but was able to follow along and enjoy the fighting.
i have to say your form and footwork is better than in any of the videos of yours I've watched previously. I personally find injuries tend to increase my awareness of my own body mechanics but whatever the reason keep up the good work!
Loving it Skall! The algorithm doesn’t like that you did this but we do! You are awesome and keep up the great work
I really enjoy watching your sparring videos. Your commentary is wry and insightful as usual.
Eyy! Was waiting for these 2 to return!
I didn't even know this video existed until your poll. Glad I found it. I watched the whole thing.
I enjoy these sparring videos greatly, tons of good pointers to remember and lessons learned through movement observations! Thank you !!
I could watch these videos all day
good thing i check your actual page after i saw that poll, finally get a sparing video while youtube trying to get me to watch a video from four years ago!
Love this. I’m sorry I missed it at first and that it doesn’t seem to be a big number getter for you but I always appreciate when you post this stuff as someone trying to learn as much as I can alone.
Ok, this was a really good sparring session; a lot of good back & fourth. And seeing the one-handed vs two-handed was really interesting. AND you (unintentionally) demonstrated what it can be like fighting with an injury. I love watching these. I hope people give you the views you deserve, this is a good quality video. 😁
Thanks for the footage and commentary I enjoy these vids a lot.
This is some real neat stuff. But you know how RUclips is, always having algorithmic errors everywhere and people may not see these right away. This commentary and show of skill is what many of your subscribers may have subscribed for.
Thanks for the sparring video Skall and all participants. They're my favorite videos.
Wow! The amount of footwork for this sort of stuff is crazy!
Videos like this would be good in a playlist.
This is fantastic. Your content is always so informative. I have been designing an RPG board game with my friends for three years and have been trying to find ways to mechanically reflect the techniques this video displays. Your commentary is invaluable.
I had to watch it just now because of late work hours. But DAMN did I enjoy it. IDK why so many ask for these videos, then don't watch them. I hope you keep posting them, but if it's too much effort, you could always move them to patreon only.
Game of Thrones would be so fucking cool if the fight choreography was done like this, being as practical and realistic as possible. I find this so much more engaging and entertaining than their showy, twirly style.
Got to say, I really like the redesigned thumbnail. It communicates a lot more, and I hope it gives this great video a bump
I love this awesome stuff Sir! Thank you for the Wonderful content. It is hard to find good content that I enjoy in regards to these topics. Your production quality and accompanying narration is phenomenal. It is sad that your views on these specific videos are not getting the response they should. I can only comment on my account but I didn't see the video until I got onto my home desktop today. I am subscribed and had the notification bell active.
Skallagrim, this is the stuff I really like on your channel. Weapons reviews are great, but I like how you use commentary during sparring. it's humble, accurate, and educational. Keep this up! BTW, you're good with the messer so stick with that until you fully heal because it's very entertaining!
Wow, I can’t believe I missed this. Your sparring videos are really well done, and probably my favorite ones to watch
Holy shit! best thing i've watched this month.
Love this channel.
I heard almost no one watched this video, but it is great I’d love to see more.
Some really cool footage and commentary. And I don't see arming sword being used alone very often, so that was cool too
Really like these videos with your commentary. As an inexperienced spectator I find the insight you provide very helpful.
I love this kind of videos where you explain every single move!
Thanks for the commentary and break down! It's great to hear what went well and how things could be improved.
These are among my favorite videos. I wish you would upload them more!
For some reason they usually don't get a lot views.
@@Skallagrim I just don't understand that. Thanks for the reply! Been following your channel for a couple years!
Wow this is awesome!
Glad the algorithm decided to show me your post about it even if it didn't show me this.
Excellent narration and good video. The white sparring weapons makes it all exceptionally clear to follow.
I am amazed at the durability of all the swords you guys were using. 👍👍👍
I know I will get fencing is shit kind of replies, but as an ex sabre fencer I really like the footwork and posture, however there is no disadvantage in keeping the blade always in front of you, and also aiming for the wrist, since the tip of the sabre is fast, and a swing of a sword is still fast but a bit open and exposed, and in historical context, I think it makes a lot of sense to disable someone by cutting his arm, at a safe distance, you dont stand much chance at penetrating armor anyways. Also lounge can be really useful too to catch a tired, overconfident or lazy foe off guard. Love these videos, cheers!
Yeahsssss!!! Thank you for this sparring breakdown, Skall!
Thanks for notifying about this Skall, loving the sparring with your analysis!
can you make a sparring video using a gun?
What?
Gun fu
Lmao need some good luck and kevlar if you wanna surviv gun fu sparring.
Bloodborne strats
Already done! :D

I love these types of videos! I hope to see more of them, let your arm heal though, your heal is above your youtube content.
Thank you for the video! All of you friends are super awesome! Oh, moments in that video are sad.
It finally appeared. Nice one , thank you. I really enjoyed this.
This was a fun video. I'm sorry I didn't watch it earlier, and that it's not getting many views. I enjoyed it; I hope you keep making these.
I can definitely see an increase in your skill Skall. Very impressive!
Wow I usually don't get much from the sparring, but the commentary really helps give context and help me understand what is actually going on
Last video you asked for suggestions - MORE OF THIS! Actually seeing people who have a clue what they're doing sparring is far more educational and interesting than all the hollywood flynning in film
Do more of these videos Skal! As a beginner HEMA practitioner these videos are very interesting to watch. :D
Hell yeah, I love this stuff. I hope this generates a good amount of views so we can see this kind of video more frequently in the future.
Awesome commentary Skall. Learned a couple things watching here actually.
Oh, THIS is the video Skall was talking about. Probably would have watched it if I'd been notified it exists...!
Man i love that longsword sparring, it just looks so cool.
Looks much better than with Messer or Saber
I really love the 1 hand vs 2 hand, much more interesting than matching weapons.
Thanks! I enjoyed both the sparring and your informative commentary.
Is it just me or is it always more interesting when you throw a langes Messer into the mix
These are always Fascinating. Love your content
First time I see a video like this on your channel. Really interesting. Will watch more, if there's more.
Finally catching up with Skall videos. Con: I miss the vids and he doesn't get the views. Pro: An hour of Skall content.
I'm glad to be watching this video today. I've just completed a traditional foil fencing class in college, and on the last day we got to experiment with the use of saber and epee. I found I much preferred the epee because of the larger valid target area and the lack of right of way rules. Hopefully I would enjoy HEMA even more, if I get the chance to try it!
Great job. Love the sparring videos
I only found out about this video because of your yt poll, even though I'm a fairly frequent viewer, but I didn't get a chance to watch it till this morning, and this is one of the better ones you've put up! I wish yt wasn't dog-dicking you algorithmically. =/
OH YEAH BOY
finally something I've subscribed for all these years ago
Well, you seem to be in the minority... The views on this are abysmal for some reason.
I love these videos. Thanks for sharing, Skall!
Finally got down to watching this. Dont think these sparring videos are bad, just some of us dont have time to get to them right away :(
I really like these videos! Even if you cant participate due to shoulder issues. Best wishes towards that BTW. No pressure heal up well.
Sparring videos are the best ones
