Its the most logical way of attack if you ask me, and as a bonus, its fun to see a guy brag about his "big" muscles only to have him loose in a 1vs1 fight against a skinny person.. ( Though the fight was friendly for mostly to prove a point )

It's not easy being passionate, the blood rush sure feels good though.
But then the headache sets in.

That however might just be because I honestly have a decent amount of "crazy ideas in my head. ( That or the fact that I was tempted to kill a person at one time.. -w- )

Normality is just perceptive conformity after all :3

You mainly need knowledge of your enemy as well as knowledge of different stances. You might also need to be able to read your enemy rather quickly as you need to judge which hand they will attack with and how they fight before they do it.

You know, when someone has that distinct look in their eyes, like they are going to rip someone open.. Well at least that's what the last idiot that managed to make me deeply annoyed claimed at least.. Maybe he actually just was a scared little dude.. I didn't really care enough to read him to that detail...

Since its a style based on momentum, it would be a little less efficient against someone using a bladed weapon as they use less strength when swinging it than with a punch. But if one is fast enough, one can easily take someone down by placing one of your own hands on the back head of your enemy, then kicking him in the leg closest to you and at the same time pushing his head down..
