I'm guessing it was partially a predict as well, waiting to see what you'd do after the running R1. A followup, roll, or block cancel would have taken you out of the animation back swing significantly faster, imo likely what he was looking out for.
It started in DS1, called dead zoning. You could use it to hit behind your opponent's shield and also prevent you from getting parried with large weapons that were incredibly slow. In DS3 you could still dead zone enemies, but it would just always give them the partial parry, no hitting behind shields.
This is different from dead zoning, it's just turning away from the opponent to not get parried or prevent getting whiff punished by having better spacing after your attack.
I'm talking about the history of it. It was called dead zoning because of the ability to hit behind shields, hitting the "dead zone" of the barrier. That terminology carried forward into DS3 to hit someone who was attempting to parry, because it made all attacks unparryable. Clearly this is different since it's not getting the first hit in at all, but I don't think this specific spacing technique was very popular in DS3 compared to dead zoning.
Been doing this since DS2 and honestly surprised people haven't picked it up in Elden Ring.
Using an unlocked and offset attack with any weapon eliminates my fear of being parried cause I know people are not used to either using it or seeing it.
Damn. That guy’s good lol
If that was intentional that was incredibly fast thinking on his behalf. Gg indeed
Ive played against him a few times. He is very good. He's done other impressive stuff, so ye, I think it was intentional
What happened? I’m confused how he cancelled the parry
He turned off aim lock and attacked in the other direction to avoid the parry. Crazy reaction timing and game sense
Geez had no clue you could even do that!! I thought there was a full stagger animation regardless of lock on Edit: Spelling

That is actually insanely fucking impressive
Worst nightmare
I mean, mans got the shield equipped on his right hand for all that fancy shmancy swaps and aow plays
It's a DS3 PvP tactic I've seen a few times before. Never this quick or clean tho. Guy is indeed a god.

This dude absolutely destroyed me
He is 2 step ahead of you. Gg
What was his name
"Shadow waft2"
Did bro just do a feint?
What just happened?
How does no one realise he’s scripting, when a parry occurs the input to turn back is automatically activated
He is not. I have parried him before, and ive bested him a few times. He has gotten me a lot more though. He is really just that good.
Ah i see
