"Do not see every enemy as an enemy. See them instead as an ally, whether they know it or not"
An opponent is as much an enemy to themselves as they are to you. The moves they make and the actions they take can easily betray them under the proper circumstances. It is up to you to watch their movements, and instead of fighting them and trying to counter them, use their own attacks against them. Whether that is by learning their moves and replicating them, or by letting them do half the work for you in making themselves open before you make your strike, it is often easy to turn an opponents skills into their weaknesses.
Practical application is during team battles with friendly fire on. By leading an opponent into another (for example, timely jumping or careful ducking) you can cause them to work against each other, turning their advantages of a two-on-one situation, for example, into a severe weakness. Such tactics have, in the past, meant the difference between victory and defeat simply because the enemy was too busy hurting themselves as opposed to their opponents.
Realize that no battle is won by things you do right, but by things the enemy does wrong. No war won by good strategies, but lost by failure to account for them. In a duel, you will never win simply by being great, but by making fewer mistakes than the person you are fighting.
