Description:
Getting an opponent on the ground is even easier if you are skilled with a shield. Use of this ability forces combatants to fall to the ground (or take a knee) for 3 seconds. The opponent can still defend and attack back but must do so from the ground. You are required to have a shield up and in use in order to use this ability. In order for this ability to work the attacker must have a shield readied and in proper use on his person and then only needs to make any type of weapon contact with their opponent and announce “Knockdown”. Do not hit your opponent with your shield. It should be noted that this ability deals no damage and cost 5 Skill Point per use.
