now take sword fighting, where everything is exactly equal. theirs no random shot to win the fight, no special type of weapon that does more damage than another - it's 10-or so hits and you win, and the difference is in the skill of aiming the sword with sidehits, blinking to the right position, and using different styles the force the player into your sword. it is much harder, fairer, more in-depth, and a lot more fun, for me at least.

I think what you're saying is untrue. Sparring with a sword is MUCH easier than sparring with a gun in my opinion. I'm well versed in both, however, for me it was much easier to pick up sparring with a sword. There might be laggers and people might have different delays, however, it's typically the same. There might be some extreme cases of laggers though such as Blobz and extreme cases of delay ex Renee.
Sparring with a gun though is much more harder. If you go by my k/d ratio it might seem like i'm god like with 11k+ kills and only about 2100 deaths, however, I wouldn't say i'm no where an elite pker/sparrer. My kills and death ratio is pretty inaccurate since you don't get deaths added onto you if you get revived, or if you participate in an event deaths don't add onto you.
