Stepping on the blade

The first option we have is that the Scholar knocks the Players blade into the ground. If the Players blade is long enough, you step on it, or if it's not step as close as you can. The Scholar then cuts Sottani, aiming for the neck (or under the beard, as Fiore says) of the Player.Tempo 1.5

Solution 1
Tempo Performer Starting Ward Cut/Action Footwork Ending Ward
2 Scholar Posta Breve Sottani Passare, stepping on blade Posta Longa
3 Scholar Posta Longa Fendente Posta Porta di Ferro

Please be aware that if you step on each other blades enough, they will break.
