If there was one thing he was comfortable with, it was lightsaber combat, always had been always would be.<br/><br/>"Should have stuck to flinging things at me." He hissed, his advance slow, measured, his lightsaber still pointed parallel to the ground off to his side, not the traditional Djem So starting position (as that was high and above the head at an angle) he found this to be the best for the initial parry and counter phase. The traditional guard above the head was better suited for attacking first, then countering, then so on and so forth.

A single counter, that's all he'd need.
