Okay, I'm just about to verify my AP and Attack Speed by having taken videos and doing my own calculations so that we can get the AP sorted out right.

 

[Chanimate]

I ended up around 63 joules (I weigh 59 kg, 5.7% of that is 3.363 kg, and have an average punch speed of 6.1 m/s). So you have a 1.19x AP advantage.

 

[Chanimate]

Because you have the minor AP advantage, I think my advantage in this is my reach, because with a foil, I end up with a maximum reach (without lunging) of 193.473 cm (my arms reach 83.5 cm out and a foil is 110 cm). We can probably shorten that a little, but it does mean I have over 1.5 meters of reach with a foil. I'm also quite thin, making me hard to hit (that is the thing most people hated about fighting me)

Also, this is a fun hypothetical match up, thanks for doing this

So you do have a slightly longer reach than me as I have a reach of 181.1 cm with the foil. I think that my main advantage here would be my left-handedness, which is typically more difficult for right handed fencers to face, and that I have decent skill in it, being able to have decent bouts with people that have more experience than me and even win against them occasionally, though it's possible they were somewhat holding back

Okay, but our captain last year was also ambidextrous (at least, he trained with both hands so he could do an Inigo Montoya) and the best fencer in our club was left handed. The best fencer was also short. This is to say, yes, left-handedness is harder for me to fight, but I am not inexperienced in fighting them.

My biggest weakness in fencing is fighting people who don’t move at all. That was hard for me to fight
