Since it seems we're doing this whole thing yet again:

Lol, us face facts? You're the one using false information. That "time ran out" thing was added by the anime, in the light novel (the canon material for the series) Yuuki beat him with her Mother's Rosario skill, not by some time-up. Then there's the "he wasn't trying" part, which there is no reason to believe. Add to this that the "fighting for his life" is fallacious in that you can't give Kirito such circumstances without applying the same for Yuuki. Excalibur is much the same way; the sword doesn't prove who the better fighter is, just who has better equipment. Dual wielding would not be beneficial to him as he couldn't use Sword Skills, and even so, he says that he probably would have lost even with Dual Blades.

I'd really rather not have another discussion like this since it always devolves into circular arguments, but don't tell others to "face facts" when such a statement is preceded by false/fallacious information.
