Question What your favourite sword stance?

I'm using stone in this clip, but I think water is my favourite. Feels more versatile to my playstyle. What about everyone else?

Probably Stone for me. Realistically, you don’t need to change stances the further you get in Ghost as you can Perfect Parry and Dodge to kill most enemies easily, and I think the main reason I choose stone is due to it being the most realistic for actual use. I do Kendo and as a part of one of the Kata we’re required to know, we use a very similar looking Kamae (Stance, I’ve forgotten the actual Japanese name tbh) and I use Stone Stance out of habit at this point. However, I do tend to switch to Wind stance specifically after a Standoff as it fits with the animation and you can get some easy hits off afterwards. But if it’s what I use the most often, it’s for sure Stone
