In the first duel you were cautious and kept you distance; that's the match you lost. Then you got more aggressive and closed in on your opponent. You took more damage immediately but scored a relatively quick win. Then the last match was so even it was scary and it was hard to tell which direct ion it would go; so finishing it off with a blade strike was pure kino.

Though on the flipside of that, this video is not representative of what the AC6 multiplayer experience is like at all. This match shows AC6 PvP at its best, but it's still an outlier and people can't expect to find matchups like this very often if at all. Also there isn't that much creative freedom in this game compared to past games. Just look at the builds in this video. Both ACs use the same frame parts, except for the head, and also use some kind of missile to help build up stagger. That's not really creative freedom.
