Yikes!  I'd try 3-3-12-17-21-11-17 or 4-3-12-17-21-10-17 Lunger

Oh, you want to keep it alive?  Pray.  Pray hard.  Pray long.  If he's decisive
at all, try blowing out offensive for the quick win.  If he's not decisive,
maybe try dodging?  Oh, you'll need to get the ST to 5; you'll lose an attack
and parry (I think), but I'd rather do that than sacrifice the WT, WL, and DF.
Challenge very conservatively - look for challenges that you can survive rather
than win.  I have a similar active rollup that started AD EX attack and has
ratings of 75 in init and defense.

I like 10-5-9-15-11-13-21  Parry Riposte

This would make a nice slasher or even striker too, but today I feel like the
p-rip.  I'd like a little more con though for survivability.
