Damnit. This mandalorian was almost as wily as I am.
Almost.
As he spun away, his left knee was out of the range of my foot. But his right leg was still close, so I aimed to drop my right foot down at the back of his right knee that he had planted so he could move, in an attempt to cause damage to it, or at the least make him drop to his right knee.
The handle that the man had thrown was coming back at me, but lucky for me I still had my walking stick in my left hand, and the chain caught the center of it and wrapped around it, bringing it short of my head. As the chain whipped back around in a counter-clockwise swing, it took my walking stick out of my hand... But that was ok. I didn't need it at this point.
I took a gamble moving to his left flank before, knowing fully well that this man was a competent fighter and knew how to fight in 360 degrees. So when his sword came up and at me, my free right hand shot out, hoping to catch his wrist and stop the slash before it even got close to me, attempting to extend his arm outward. At the same time, my open left hand came forward towards his elbow as I channeled the Force through my left arm, summoning the strongest Shatterpoint attack I could at the joint between his upper and lower arm, hoping that if I could hold his wrist in place with my right hand, I could snap his elbow with my left.
I shifted my weight counter-clockwise, so that even if I couldn't snap his elbow, I could at least keep him moving to my right with the hopeful control of his wrist in my right hand. If that worked, it would drag the mandalorian into the path of his own swinging handle.

His slash was arrested by the Old Jedi. He was stronger than he looked. But so was Ashrah. Much stronger. As his wrist was gripped, he wasn't quite spun all the way around, but his momentum was pretty built up. The stomp kick clipped the outside of Ashrahs right knee, causing the leg to buckle slightly. No matter how strong you are, a good smack to the knee can fuck your day up. The buckle worked to his advantage however. As His leg tweaked, Ashrah continued the movement of his right arm, pulling as hard as he could towards his now bent right leg, looking to haul the jedi over the knee and into the ground. The stick went flying, unwrapping itself from his chain, and Ashrah let go of the chain for now, knowing full well it wouldnt go far, still be attached to his arm. If his move worked, he would slam his fist at the head of Hiro, whilst attempting to jam his left elbow into the solar plexus/ribs of the elder Jedi

Well, no matter what else happened, I could always say that I brought the Man-dee-lore to his knee.
But I was really hoping I could do much more than that.
I gripped his wrist to stop his sword, but I didn't expect him to pull back so quickly. The mandalorian was strong. But as I released my grip on his wrist, his strength didn't account for anything as he turned to his left and away from me.
My left hand was already coming forward, and his right arm had moved, so there was nothing I could do to his elbow. But I was already channeling the Force through my hand, and I had another target in mind.
The helmet.
I brought my left hand forward at the helmet, unleashing the Force at the weaknesses I could see through the Force. I didn't actually have to touch his helmet to effectively use Shatterpoint on it... But damn would it look cool if I could hit it and watch it crumble.
With my right hand free, I shot it forward in a closed fist, aimed to strike right underneath his right ear in an attempt to dislocate his jaw mere milliseconds after his helmet hopefully crumbled away, and hell, it might even disorient him enough to nullify his solar plexus strike before it hit. But there was nothing I could do about the elbow but tense my stomach and shift my weight so that the elbow hit my abdomen instead. It hurt like a mother, but it could have been worse.
I followed with another closed fist strike from my left hand, aimed at the back of the neck where it connected to his skull. There was no reason to hold back anything now.

Suddenly there was no resistance on his right arm. This caused his already substantial momentum to continue his spin, now on one knee and leaning forward. Balls. He tucked his right shoulder, ducked his head and went over in a roll, Hiro's left hand swinging through Empty Air. One thing most Force users forgot was that Shatterpoint required the user to actually touch what they hoped to break. Ashrah missed having his buy'ce fall off around his head by millimeters.
He came to a crouch facing Hiro, and as he rotated to this position, he pulled his left arm around, building momentum, and launching the chain handle at the side of Hiros head, using his own body as a sling shot.....

Well this one has already been judged, and there is no change in the judgemt from tournament time. Regretabbly Hiro did not continue this duel and as such Ashrah still wins.
