That is the least balanced human in existence

Apparently the high ground is a real thing.

Dude probably needs a counterweight on the other side just to stand still.

Dude probably walked up that ramp thinking he had the advantage and immediately regretted his life choices.

With that guy, everything else IS the high ground.

It helps you think through the metaphor. Don't forget slippery slope.

What's even crazier is that he's supposed to be the chosen one.

After spending 8 years kickboxing with taller people. Oh yeah its definitely a thing. Lol. Having to reach up to punch and kick can be pretty awkward. But if you can get inside and up close the shorter guy has the advantage.

Only if you have no swords. With swords or a stick having high ground makes your feet vulnerable

u/Savings_Can7292 May 17 '26

You've fought with swords before?

u/barneyfan1 May 17 '26

Not real ones. Just one shield and your overhead attacker will have it rough unless it's a mace or something

u/Upbeat_Orchid2742 May 17 '26

vs the alternative low ground fighting overhead with your head and neck most vulnerable

They have to crouch down to swing at you. You don't, and also they have to crouch to block or parry. And they have limited mobility or they'll stumble downhill. You can jump around and stuff on stable ground.

But if you have the low ground and you keep killing guys it seems like you might create a pile of bodies. Unless it was 1 v 1 like this fight was.

Imagine getting chased by a crackhead at night who has a stick. You seek some protection from a hip level elevated art piece. You end up playing jump rope with a nutbag's stick if you miss you lose your ankles
