Greatsword Bear Pit - SCA Heavy Combat

In the SCA, a "bear pit" is a 1v1 (or more) "loser out" setup, with all the fighters getting to the end of the line after a loss. A "long" fight in the SCA is roughly 30 seconds, and is absolutely exhausting.

Longsword vs Greatsword? - That's really a can of worms. Four of the fighters in this video are using what I would refer to as longswords (around 4-4.5 feet). Myself (5ft+), Captain Gilcryst (5ft+), and "Shoe" (6 ft) are the three really using greatswords. But "two handed sword bear pit" didn't flow well for the title, and "Longsword Bear Pit" doesn't sound quite as cool as "Greatsword Bear Pit" :p
