Martial Arts

No, I'm aware that Judoka are capable of attack. But an art that is centeralized in countering obviously cant compete in attack against an art that centeralized on attack. Another way I could see to beat judo would be an evasive technique with light, outer-zone strikes that dont keep yourself in their zone long enough to permit a counter attack. And excuse my use of terms, they most likely aren't correct terminology, I'm a swordsman not a Martial Artist.

 

. . .

Well, you can't really say that one Martial Art is totally superior. I think that all Martial Arts have amazing strengths and weaknesses. But the one thing that comes down to it is your technique. But personally, as a 3rd Degree Black-belt in Tae Kwon Do, I think that Tae Kwon Do is very good. Lightning fast kicks that are developed into very strong/fast kicks are very good.

 

Ok, but what if Tae Kwon Do is used against Jogo do Pau? I always use my staff for defense & always make sure that when I go in the defense, that I make sure that I tire out my enemy. To me, Tae Kwon Do is not strong against those who have weapons. & as for you Zenrot, YOU'RE A SWORDSMAN?!! When did you became one? Love to see my staff against your sword someday. ^^

 

Oh yeah????? I use metal rods like swords, and im capable of swinging them quite hard and fast... Faster than Sephiroth's attacks
ok, maybe im not that good, but i can PWN almost everyone that gets in my way!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ok. First off, with me talking in a calm voice, there's no reason for you to scream or curse. What I said is not a stupid question. I did not say that I carry my staff with me everywhere & not only that, we can master any arts that we want to learn.
If you want to curse, yell, & scream at me, then there's no reason for you to start this thread at all. All of us must know the weaknesses when one art is used against another. There is no true art in my opinion. I be one with my soul & spirit when I be wanting to use a art or fight with my staff.
Tae Kwon Do have it's weaknesses & having a weapon in a art is not unfair. Otherwise, you wouldn't have put Jogo do Pau, Jukendo, Silambam, Kendo, & Gatka on the poll. I'd never complain about the arts & if I forgot about a art that involves with a certain weapon, yes, I will ask & it shouldn't be nothing wrong with asking.
If you want to scream, yell, & curse at me, then you shouldn't have made this thread or have put up the weapon arts. No one didn't do anything to you & I'm saying this with a calm voice. I don't need to yell or scream. That's why some or most people can't get their words straight & you is crying over something that shouldn't even bother you, & you should help a person to know what's the name of a art that involves with a certain weapon if they forgot, not criticizing them or downgrading someone, especially your own brethren in god.

 

Strike Raid

Oh, yeah? My fave move is this:

I use this all the time, even in real life! No, im not sora, but i still use it

 

I enjoy using Ninjutusu, which splits into 18 different types of other training. Mostly involving weapons which I do enjoy using but considering hand to hand is more of an everyday thing than carrying wakizashi's, katana's and shurikens around, I like the Taijustsu arts which is also known as Jujustsu. Jujutsu uses a mixture of techniques involving locks, throws grapples, bone breakings, nerve strikes>paralysis, evasion and even counters/sacrificial moves (ie. going into your opponents attack to counter). I enjoy this art because of its mixture of different attacks and blocks. May not be the best one but it's just my opinion.

 

I never stated that a Judo practitioner would decide to jump in on an opponents charge, I'm saying that judo is a countering technique and so its wise to take an opponent outside their comfort zone.

Hmm, alittle biased perhaps? You are correct, I'm not going to carry my sword wherever I go, but the training you recieve when in sword combat still gives you enough hand to hand capability to get by unless you are randomly attacked by a martial arts master. And there is nothing "unfair" about it. A sword technique, a fist technique, a staff technique, they all take strength and skill to master, and a good martial artist can beat a good swordsman or vice versa. The point of learning these skills is to be able to defeat your opponent no matter WHAT their skill is. If i were to fight summonerbrandon, and he won, my first response wouldnt be "HE HAD A STAFF, I ONLY HAVE A SWORD, HE HAD BETTER REACH THAN ME, ITS NOT FAIR!" I'm confident in my skills, no matter who my opponent is or what they wield or choose not to wield.

 

A staff & a sword have their own strengths & Zenrot's answers backed up my evidence. The only problem that I have is what I put in big bold letters. The person with the staff may not have a good range their own self. The person themselves can control their range/reach.
If Zenrot won against me here's the reason why: He can control his power, control his balance better, not reckless, have a faster speed then me, or that he be careful at how he fight. If I had won, this is some of the reasons why: I have a good defense, I be careful how I fight, I be clever, I control my speed & balance, I be one with my spirit & soul, I study how my opponent move & I be very calm.
Everyone have different skills & talents.

 

cba to read the whole topic, Muay Boran is the best, banned form of Muay Thai.

 

There's no Cambodia martial art.

 

Can you further explain what a 'true fighter' and a 'true artist' is? And can you prove that you are one? Because if you're not, then you'd be the poser by claiming you are something that you are not.

 

First off, I am a real fighter. I have a wooden staff that I always practice with, & by wooden, I mean a staff that I went around to find, carve it to my liking, & make it good enough for me to use it & practice fighting with it. I don't be acting like some anime characters. I be real. Not only that, I am talking real calm & just because the way I act or talk on this site doesn't mean anything. I don't act like a fake.

I'm talking to you in a calm voice & this is the truth about what I said above. I didn't say that we can master "every" art. I said we can master "any" art, meaning that we can master any art that interest us or that we like. I don't have to argue with you because I know that I am a real fighter, I never act like a fake, I do have a staff, & I know that I'm speaking the truth.

I do know that the arts are real. Youwant to criticize me, wanting to say that I'm not something when I am, The examples I put up there about me & Zenrot makes sense to me & those examples about the advantages of what one person can have is true too. When I say "with the soul & spirit" I mean that I be very calm, clear away all negative thoughts, & control myself. You is forgetting that you can't just say "Since you act like this & talk like this all the time, you is nothing but a poser" because that's their personality. Personality don't have nothing to do with if they're a fighter or not. If you still think that I'm a fake, fine, but I know in my heart that I am a staff fighter & that I am not faking anything.

 

Hrmm. Well, since I'm a peacemaker...I'd like to do my job . Seriously, though...why get so upset about things like this? I agree that there is no need for getting that angry, even if it is a pet peeve. It's odd to me that there seems to be such a rapid loss of control (in terms of anger management) with one that claims to be a real fighter (which I do not dispute. Peacemaker, not fighter. I just like tessen...and kunai, chakram, and bow/arrow). A real fighter keeps their head on straight. Tactics are, in my opinion, much more effective than brute force. But tactics are useless if anger is not channeled well. Just saying...

 

I don't know any martial arts (although I may take up judo) but I use my own kind of method alot like judo's, allow the opponent to make the first move, find their weakness and use their own strength against them.

I don't believe that I could take down a judokan or whatever, but I fight well, and to an untrained person, I'll most likely win.

Also, does judo utilise attacking pressure points?

 

I'm not too sure about judo but I think Jujutsu utilises attacks on pressure points, as well as utilising other forms of attacks/blows and blocks/counters.

 

Ah, thanks, but still, if somebody could tell me about judo.

Also, if Judo requires taking the enemies weakness, surely a quick, short and less painful strike would be the way to wear them down. Or a complex way to do it, would be to know how your opponent would counter your attacks, by using attacks that can only have one possible outmanoever, and defend yourself against the counter, to eventually wear down your opponent, util an opening is seen and a quick strike can knock them down and open up a window of oppertunity, just a thought.

 

I agree with you. THere's no reason to be upset or yell & curse over these things. I also agree about a real fighter keeps their head on straight. THe anger thing being channeled, I would rather be calm. Tactics are, as you say, can be more effective. Brute force can sometimes lead to the person being reckless in the art(s) that they use.
