I vaguely recall a fencing move where you don't try to defend yourself vs. an attack but rather launch a faster attack in the opening left.
@cwage @admittedlyhuman in epee whoever touches first gets the point no matter who initiated the attack, in foil you have to have initiated

@cwage@admittedlyhuman when someone is slow or leaves target wide open when attacking, you can easily sneak in with epee but not foil -
@cwage@admittedlyhuman foil fencers end up doing exaggerated motions kind of to "prove" to the judge they initiated
