I hate this specific sport. It just looks like your mom made you put on the armor so you dont hurt yourself while playing of fighting with your middleschool friends.

irl dudes in full plate would usually end up in a grapple, which turned into an armored wrestling match with daggers - the winner of the grapple got to stab the other guy in the eyeballs.

so some of this is 'correct' but there's also dudes hitting each other in the heads with swords, which doesn't accomplish very much
