[Fighters exactly like Sephiroth, usually, who don't apply themselves to any sort of combat at his lethality without full reason for doing so and therefore will throw everything of themselves at it. However, a frequent symptom of ones stay in the Tower is to sooner or later end up without such abilities by way of a Glamour drop - so logically it's always been for Sephiroth's prerogative to at least keep his sword skills as sharp as they need to be. However lacking they may be by his more-human limits right now.
Despite the major difference in the type of weapon, this skill shines through. The blade is disconnected almost immediately from the block with a spear and swung down and around for the next strike - which is quickly turned into a parry with the flat of the blade at Ruler's incoming foot. It does however, force him to take a step back in his stance with the momentum.
Resetting his stance, Sephiroth doesn't hesitate in following up with his next attack; this time more of a fencers lunge forwards than a sweep.]
