Was wondering what the Boards think of this? I was accused of HOing my opponent on the kill shot towards the end of the video. I was taught a Head On was when both fighters have a clear firing solution. My opponent claims that "he could have pulled for a shot" but decided not too.
In my opinion its clear I traded my energy advantage for a shot opportunity in a vertical angles fight. My opponent attempted to set up for a lead turn and did not evade the obvious shot opportunity I had gained.
Im posting two examples so no one feels they are being targeted(I feel like this is a set up I use very frequently in the MA) . I'm genuinely curious as to what the community thinks of these.
Technically no, it was not a HO, but that is because I didntpull for the HO and make it a true one.
I entered the fight at a big disadvantage as shida said, but I dont mind that as long as I get a fight. Right away I knew I was against a good player and worked hard to try and equalize our positions. On the final merge I could have dumped my E and thrown the plane into position for a HO, but thats not how I want to win fights. I tried to save E by NOT pulling hard into a nose on position. I thought my opponent was going to fight like I do.....maneuver and force the other guy into a position where a shot is unavoidable from behind the 3-9 line. After all it was just the two of us having a fun fight, there was nothing on the line, neither one of us was going to die.
I guess it was too much to ask. I thought Sis would have pulled up and rolled over again to get me to burn more E avoiding him and then slide in for the shot I couldnt avoid. Yes I called HO because I thought you went for a lame, lazy shot instead of working towards a clean kill shot like I was trying to do. Its my own fault thinking others would play the game like I try to especially in a 1 vs 1 with nobody else in the sector.
Congrats on another kill Sis, I didnt even spill my gin and tonic
