[ Trouble is the right word. When their weapons lock again, Lancer can tell that the enemy is stronger and faster, which does a good job of throwing off his initial calibrations and adjustments.
It doesn't help that he has to nurse his fresh wound as he's fighting, but that goes for Saber as well; they're both at a disadvantage in that respect.
Narrowly dodging a second blow, both feet braced and dug into the ground for footing, he swings and tries to go for vitals. No use in trying to wear the opponent down, if he's going to win he's going to have to win with one definitive blow. ]
