Wooooow, @askheartandviolet. There has most certainly been a misunderstanding, though. I was joking about the weapon thing. I didn’t think anypony claiming to be a warrior would be foalish enough to bring a weapon in a one-on-one against a unicorn. Even in a spar, where I’m supposed to go easy on you, that’d be far too unrealistic. But I guess that’s what happens when you remain close-minded to other fighting styles in your own blind overconfidence. Pardon the crude visual aids.
And this is just me and my limited magic. A more gifted unicorn would probably magnetize your claws to your armor so you couldn’t even stand up!
This is the entire reason why no division of the Equestrian Guard employs armed patrols! The use of weaponry in civilized combat is as archaic and backwards as your notions of training! The whole reason we’d spar hoof-to-hoof would be to give you the advantage! You’re faster, probably have more experience, and I hope would be in better shape.
And you can have the advantage because I don’t mind losing! Winning only reinforces what you already know. Losing is how you learn what to do different next time. I would have thought that to be a millennia old concept. But hey, you grew up sheltered and unexposed, and that’s not your fault. But remaining that way is.
Oh, and you can forget about the spar. You’re clearly beneath me. Even holding back I’d probably hurt you.
