Why DFA rocks, and you should all use it.

It's very simple. DFA is the best move ever, because it was actually used in one of the Star Wars movies.

Episode II: Attack of the Clones

During the large-scale battle scene where the Jedi are rescuing Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Padme, there is a quick shot of a Jedi jumping over a fallen pillar, and DFA'ing a combat droid.

This proves forever and without a doubt that the DFA is the best move in the entire freaking game, thus you should do nothing but DFA over and over. If you have it on DVD I encourage you to watch that chapter repeatedly until you see it for yourself.

Your frag count against bots will surely rise dramatically, as demonstrated in the movie. There were a lot more dead bots at the end of that film than Jedi.

:D

(And before anyone who can't see the obvious bothers to reply to me in a serious tone about how you shouldn't DFA all the time, or something else I don't care about...yes, this post was made in humor)

I find that anyone who uses DFA can be taught not to by simply sidestepping and horizontally swiping at them with the red stance.

Quite a price to pay for such a crappy attempt at fighting.

Still, even if you win I can guarantee a comment from your DFA-victim...

lmfao Bodster! Rdfa is a very powerful move, yes. But Sacrificing speed and mobility for sheer power over and over is like shooting yourself in the foot.. No, the head. It's not like it matters because there's not much there (in your head) to blow out, if you spam rdfa.. It can be easily countered. If i duel someone who i know is rdfa happy, whenever i see a red swing coming, i switch to yellow to ydfa if im close enough or blue to lunge. I rarely use rdfa, I see no use in spamming it over and over. It's meant to be used sparingly in my opinion. Also, in my opinion, MOST rdfa spammers have *no* skill. Either do most spammers in that case..:cool:

I wonder if the jedi in the film kept doing the DFA, and when he finally got shot, a strange little subtitle appears in the top left...

I like to take a risk with the DFA. Usually you have to be very lucky for it to connect with your opponent on landing. But that's not the only time its deadly. People try to avoid it by different means, back up strafe to the side go under or over you. I like watching people try to avoid it and end up getting hit while you are still in the air. I've had several duels end while I was still in mid air with the dfa.

DFA is the best counter I'v found for the YDFA, forget lunge or a red overhead swing, and couner a ydfa with another ydfa is kinda dangerous as you have to get close and doesn't always work.

You have to know your opponent will Ydfa, you have to be prepared. Lead them into one but making obvious moves, running in a straight line, and stopping just in front of them. As soon as they pop it off, backflip red swing, straight into a DFA, duel over :D

To deny the most powerful and damaging move in the game, is to deny yourself options and overall, FRAGS !! :D

ok, heres the thing, the DFA is very powerful (i won because of it... 100/49->0), but, its easy to see comming... and if your good at kicking, i dont care how good you are at DFA'ing, your not gonna do very well. Yes, i have seen someone take the full hit of a DFA, and win... it was scary

Wll technically, if you only want to win, and you had some well clever brain which could calculate the possibility of where everyone would move to so you never missed, then the DFA would be the most effective move :D

I'll shutup now..........
