Spinning Blades Style (TCG)

Spinning Blades Style was a Rank 2 Close Combat kata taught that the biggest advantage of dual wielding did not usually stem from attacking with two weapons simultaneously, largely because this was a very difficult feat. Instead, the greatest advantage of two-weapon fencing styles came from the fact that the warrior did not need to sacrifice defense while attacking or offense while defending. The offhand blade could deflect and threaten even as the main hand weapon attacked, or the bushi could strike with the offhand weapon while the main hand weapon was locked with the foe's blade. The opponent could not afford to take their eyes off either weapon, for either could deliver their death. Legend of the Five Rings - Roleplaying, p. 180
