An attack seen on another screen starts late, so the swing looks too slow or too short

Over the network, the news that someone swung a weapon arrives after they started. Playing it from the start makes every hit look delayed; skipping into the middle loses the wind-up. Here is a middle way that hides the lateness, and the point where it is better to give up.

Why this works

The eye forgives a swing that is a little quick far more than one that starts late or loses its wind-up. Playing slightly faster until you reach the true moment shows the whole motion and ends in step with the owner, and a swing already past its hit is not worth hurrying.

When not to use it

Wrong for slow, heavy moves, where speeding up spoils the weight, and for long loops like walking, which need a shared clock instead. If the delay is large, skip to the real time or show nothing: hurrying through half a second looks silly.
