"In fencing (and other combat sport and team games) there is direct fight against opponent and thus very important role of tactics. In fencing the energy abilities, coordination, motor skills (execution of fencing actions) serve as a base for tactics. In fencing the correct and fast execution of movement is not enough. Fencers in a bout must know, when and how to apply a given action. The fencer must choose the appropriate action in most suitable situation. And this is why a very important aspect of tactics is sense of timing (sense of surprise). This is connected with choice of situation to successfully employ an appropriate action (distance, opponent's movements, his intentions, accuracy of perception, fast and proper reaction etc. Etc. ). Timing or fencer's sense of surprise means perceiving, based on lightning-speed assessment of situation, the opportunity to score a hit (convenient distance, opponent's careless movement, opponent's signs of inattention, opponent's hesitation etc. ) and taking advantage of it". ) and taking advantage of it".
