Ok /vip/, you are about to go do battle in a colosseum, and after taking a look at you, your slave driver takes pity. He offers you the choice of any melee weapon of your choosing that existed up until the renaissance time period. You will also be fitted with chainmail and a helmet, and you will be fighting a heavily trained, muscular man in full plate armour who you know to be cocky enough to leave his helmet behind in every fight. He switches up his weapons, but he tends to have a preference for polearms, and he always carries a longsword on his belt, mostly for his killing blow. He never loses. What weapon do you choose?

>He never loses.
Then what's the point?
>>
>>28626
Survival? You're telling me you'd just give up in the case of certain death?
>>
>>28627
Well this is a hypothetical in which case one of the rules is the opponent never loses. I wish for a jetpack and fly out of the colosseum.
>>
>>28618
>What weapon do you choose?

A can of wasp spray.

It's not a rule, the guy is just a beast.

>>28649
Where's my jetpack, hypothetical genie?
>>
>>28653
>melee
>>
>>28655
My jetpack is dual purpose. I can hit him in the face with it and when he stumbles I can fly out of the colosseum.
>>
>>28658
You'll have to compromise and settle for a giant dildo. Sorry faggot.
>>
>>28618
>He never loses
Isn't that implied by the fact that he's alive?
>>
>>28659
I'll die with my dick in my hands then.
>>
>>28660
Extra impact, obviously.

OP here again. Since nobody is answering the question, I'd probably choose a good, strong spear that won't break on me too easily; I'd choose one a foot longer than his longest polearm. The lack of a helmet puts his armour level below mine; it's a crippling weakness. Basically I try to poke him in the eye and shit, exploiting my reach advantage. Given his record, I probably still lose, but it would be my best chance at winning imo.

obviously i pick the katana.
also i would try and throw dirt into his eyes since they are unprotected, and get close to him while he was blind and slash at his face/neck/throat. to that end having a sword would be useful, but i'm not actually a katanafag irl. a broader sword which i could hopefully use to bat aside his polearm would probably be best, and as i'm an untrained plebe skeleton, just having something with an easy to use cutting edge would be good.

No shield? Claymore
>>
>>28923
You can have a shield if you want, I can't see why not. No tower shields are available though, nothing larger than a kiteshield.

I wont need a shield with a claymore, its a two handed wrapon anyway
A claymore has a wide hilt that is angled forward, i deal for catching the pole. I could then twist the blade to angle the polearm away at a convenient angle to slide the weapon off and swing for his head. Dont say he's too strong for thats, not how physics work. A pole arm is a heavy weapon and his strength will be in the thrust, his weight will work against him.
>>
give me a longer polearm than his

try and stab him in the eye
>>
>>28945
>he cant hold a claymore with 1 hand
>>
>>28997
I know you're joking, but have you actually felt the weight of a large sword? Well I mean, a longsword is only about 1kg (2?) I think, but try swinging that shit when you don't lift and it'll make you feel like a complete weakling. So much for dreams of being a templar knight, that shit is hard.
>>
>>29011
But anon, if I was alive in a time when broadswords were still cutting edge (sorry) technology, don't you think I'd have more muscle mass than my 2016 wimpy-ass computer programmer form?
>>
>>29011
no but ur mum has felt the weight of my large sword
>>
>>29016
I think I'd give up and play a rogue. Daggers are easy, and nobody expects the knife in their back because honour and shit.

You'd probably be more fit if you just sit around all day, but you're definitely able to become much bigger today than you could back then. Just because of childhood nutrition and easy access to protein and workout regimens.

The nobleborn knights would be a little stronger due to their weight. I would imagine that fatness would have been perceived as a good thing and a sign of wealth, so most of the noblemen would be fat. They might be a little weak in the arm though still without exercise. I suppose they would do a bit of sparring for that.
>>
>>29151
Yeah but it would affect my opponents equally

The point is that I'd be more stronger relatively speaking
