That to remove the "Slash/Slash/Slash/Dead" abuse of creatures that do not fall over.

It has been like this for a while. I believe since the ambush changes where you didn't have to type AMBUSH to attack from hiding. I would love to see ambush slash with the offhand come back. I used to use it all the time.

Okay, I did some investigating. You should be able to use the two dirt ambushes (sight and screen) left-handed because they were written with the intention of utilizing ambidexterity. On the other hand (pun intended!), the rest of the ambushes were not, so something broke somewhere when offhand came into play. So, for the time being, I wouldn't expect the left slash to come back soon.
