And in the middle of the pitched set of duels, most times an important character struggles, another one will show up just in time to save them, maybe exchange some words, and then split back up to wade back into the series of duels (to cover more ground).

Also everyone knows what's going on, who is the enemy and who is an ally, and orders are clearly yelled out and quickly followed with minimal confusion. There's a good chance that some characters are carrying out a conversation.

Bonus cool points if the two conversing warriors intuitively do a tag-team switch attack at some point (I attack your guy, you attack my guy finishing move)!

Don't forget that moment where the main character stands there looking at all the fighting happening around them in slow motion for a solid 30 seconds without getting slaughtered.
