Wasn't expecting a massive info dump, but I did as for it in a way.

"Slate's fighting style based on agilty without comprising strength that involves parry and evasion tactics that allow him to control a fight."

Is it ok if I bring in the Yang defense? What I mean is if you were to closely study Yang's movement, the yellow trailer is a  prime example. How she fights is what I mean by " agility without sacrificing strength." Yes she has momentum on her side, but she can still have a powerful punch just from standing still (E.G. launching Junior). While easily evading attacks The same idea is what I have in mind with slate, albeit not a strong and with a sword. I might go back and reword it, but slate's current style matches him. I probably remove the succession of attacks to make it more of strength aspect.

On to the next part about his adaptability. For the most part I just imagine slate going through constant guard changes that allow him to take a different approach to combat. Example, him holding his sword inverted and lower in his stance would allow him to attack quicker and dodge faster at the expense of strength and parrying ability.
