Congratulations, you've managed to acquire a foam sword. Now, you're probably thinking, "What's the point of this flimsy, foam contraption?" Well, let us tell you: it's not just for show. With the Foam Sword, you'll be able to deflect attacks, distract enemies, and potentially even start a new trend in medieval cosplay.
When facing an opponent, hold the Foam Sword vertically, with the flat side facing them. This will allow you to deflect incoming attacks with the least amount of damage to your sword's structural integrity.
As you gain more experience, you can try holding the sword horizontally, using its width to block multiple attacks at once. Just be sure to maintain control, or you'll end up with a sword-wielding mess on your hands.
Remember, the key to successful Foamy Fencing is not just about blocking, but also about showmanship. Use the Foam Sword as a prop to distract your enemies with your fancy footwork and dramatic poses.
When your opponent tries to attack, use the Foam Sword as a makeshift shield, parrying their blows with a flourish. Who cares if it breaks? It's not like it's not made of actual material or anything.
