What's your style?
` - Oh, just nerd rage.
This is the kind of sport I sub for! Holy shit that was awesome.
If you want full scale.. then Pennsic War in Pennsylvania is where you want to be every year.

The host nailed it.
If you want more precision and technique, less mindless flailing and brawling, there's stuff like this Historical European Martial Arts saber tournament.
Too me its the middle ground of MMA with armor and Kendo's "No one actually fought like this, but there's technique" style, with an emphasis on realism.
So, if your weapons are blunt, why the fuck are so few people using actual maces?
I saw a guy punching another rather than using his axe. Once you stop using your weapon due to it being ineffective, maybe you should reconsider what you're using.
Also, if the while point is just knocking people over, why use swords and whatnot at all? Just throw a 260 pound wrestler into full plate and get him to do his thing.
Fucking Savage!
As someone with a passion for swords and sword fighting, this made me tingle with excitement.
Are you eliminated once you fall down?
