Track & Field II/Fencing
From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki
Controls[edit]
- /: Move your fencer left or right across the play field.
- : Press the A button to thrust your weapon forward. Pressing A alone will perform a center thrust.
- : Press the B button to parry your opponent's thrust. This will block an otherwise successful strike.
Rules[edit]
To defeat your opponent, you must successfully score five points within six minutes. To score a point, you must strike your opponent with your foil, or you must push them back behind the foul line.
If the six minute time limit ends before either player has scored five points, the player with the most points wins the match. If the players are tied after six minutes, the match is determined by a Sudden Death match.
Tips[edit]
- Low thrusts are a particularly safe method of attack. You create a smaller target for your opponent, and you can advance slightly while you attack in an effort to push back your opponent.
- It's not a bad idea to follow a parry up with an immediate thrust, as you will likely strike your opponent while they are recovering from their most recent strike.
