Although I meant originally to do just one small greatsword video on why parrying Greatswords is not a great idea, a lot of people remained convinced it can be done, if only you parry it the correct way. So here I’d figure I weigh in on deflections by taking a Pogen parry riposte as an example. Tldr: it can work, but kinda depends on the Greatswordsperson making compounding errors and otherwise it will likely not.
