There are two sides to this.
When you are attacking and you are scared the opponent will slime you out with a counter attack, so you finish shorter and more direct.
When you are defending and you want to counter attack, but you are scared the opponent will slime you out with a straight attack, so you run away while parrying every time they attack.
The result is a slow ass bout and this counterattack situation never arising, even though it is more advantageous for one of the fencers.

Verd: No you get the point because I go to the wrong line
Jackson: I'm pretty sure you just hit me
Verd: It's Schrodinger's counterattack :O
