“We asked him to move." Note the word "We" from the surviving twin.

From Google:

"Disparity of force" refers to situations where there's an imbalance in physical ability, numbers, or other factors, placing one person at a severe disadvantage in a confrontation, potentially justifying the use of greater force in self-defense.

I'm 77 and have had quadruple bypass heart surgery. I also often go armed with a handgun. Am I required by law to let these twins assault me? Or does the law allow me to stand my ground?

I'm certainly not going to prevail in a physical confrontation without a weapon to assist me.

The assailant had an altercation earlier in the day with the victim. He brought a knife, entered a space where he didn't belong with intent to incite/rekindle the earlier fight. It's not self defense if you bring a weapon and incite a fight to employ the weapon. There was intent, premeditation in coming (illegally) armed, motive to act. The prosecution is going to have a pretty solid case.

If you were in the opponent's tent, is it *YOUR* ground, or is it theirs?

Do teams not have a right to keep their tents free of opponents?

If *YOU* are in the wrong place, why shouldn't you be forced to move?
