If Face can beat this guy in 5 rounds, anyone should be able to kick him around. Okay, openers. HC/TH/SS/SH, which is a fairly good mix of openings. And since not one of them is the same, I'd say you can look for another opening different from the rest. My bet, is he'll low cut. So, My suggestion, is to LC as well. He won't thrust but I wouldn't be shocked at a duck. You can thrust, but again there's the chance of an anti-thrust move, which I doubt. Either way, I don't see a CP coming from him since like.. he's only done one. In fact, judging from the amount of CPs, you're safe with the LC. He likes to Anti-Thrust a lot, so, whichever Cut he uses, you've a good shot at using an offensive defense. So definitely stick with an offensive mindset and rely on a few thrusts to win it for you. I'd avoid Sidesteps and stop hits due to his tendency to cut. This makes parries difficult since he sidesteps often enough. However, that is why you should go for an offensive defense. You should be safe just looking at his moves. He's pretty obvious and doesn't really stray from his patterns. Your opening pattern should basically be.. LC-TH-LC-HC. You should, at worst, have a 4-2 lead. More likely 4-1. :)
