Denied Chiblocking Revamp

[Hero]

Ok guys, here is the difference between extended knuckle and a normal punch.

Extended Knuckle


Punch

Tho Ty Lee did poke some people when she chi blocked, so i find jab accuired to be move.

I was thinking about removing jab snd replace it with poke/finger, but that sounds wrong and not really interesting.

 

[HydroMan]

The only thing I ask is not change punch. 35% is kinda high and most people would probably hate the fact that they are forced tk look in a direction.

Punch still got denied and understand why. Punch should stay punch. Jab could be replaced with MuscularStrike (or the other way around, if you wanna the name to stay), Kick is ok, and thats pretty much fine

or....

Jab could be replaced with MuscularStrike

Im going to keep five base moves.
Chiblocking were precise jabs that involved fingers and knuckles.
And you said that pressure points dont work in real life, but there is an ancient martial art called Varma Kalai

Wasn't there like a Palm as a fifth move?

what would knuckle do?

I was kidding about replacing jab. I like your move, but that sounds like it should be two seperate combos imo.

 

[Hero]

what would knuckle do?

No knockback and weakest of the base move, but has a high disable bending rate.

 

[HydroMan]

Im changing most of the Jab combos to Knuckle. Why Knuckle?​

1. From personal experience, using your knuckle on parts of the body (Beside spine, side of stomach, ect.) is more in tune with chiblocking.
2. Jab in reality was just something I thougbt it was called, but after doing more research, I know what its called.
3. Im keeping Jab, just somethings like combos and such will change.

@Gamzee @HydroMan

wait so, what is actually jab now?

 

[HydroMan]

No knockback and weakest of the base move, but has a high disable bending rate.

like quickstrike? Would be pointless to have a combo and a ability that both just disable bending and does nothing else.

 

[Gamzee]

A lot of the knuckle moves you put in there make no sense. If it is just for chi blocking why is it in things like Devastating Blow?

You arent lookimg at what they do. You are just looking at one part of the moves.

Ooops, I forgot to change devastating blow to your combo.

There has been alot of problems with Knuckle. Ill probably get rid of it if more people start hating it.

 

[HydroMan]

You should edit abit your main post, as knuckle makes up 5 moves and kick deals small damage.

Just leave it for now.

Kicks in real life hurt though ;_;

Thanks for the heads up though about the numbers.

you said it would ruin the combo thing and that you had 1 block further in mind '_'

 

[Hero]

Kick already does small damage though.

I also seem to recall somebody rethinking how paralysis would work to make it more interesting for combat. Like instead of just freezing them in place, disabling a function, like shifting, or left clicking, or maybe sprinting. Anybody remember whose idea that was? Like, a link to to that thread possibly would be nice. I want to give proper credit for where ideas come from. Maybe we could incorporate it into this suggestion, with their permission, of course.

2. Lol , @TheBlueSpirit i kind like suggested the same thing for chi called MuscularStance. Im suprise that im not the first to suggest that.

 

[HydroMan]

?

im think that kick should push 2 away, as if you punch someone normally they already back away one block.

I think kick should stay the same. If kick added 2 blocks of knockback, it would seriously mess up the combos.

Thats what Gamzee and I had in mind.
