How would you create a martial art that had as it's main purpose to be most effective against UNTRAINED people? Are there any techniques that are useless in a trained context but disproportionally effective when used against untrained people?Kind of like how in chess there are openings that are principally not sound and easily rebuked by people who know how to play chess, but allow you to easily checkmate a complete beginner (like the scholar's mate).
>>251389it would be based on timing counter attacks and exploiting feinting
>>251389By combining the basics of most effective martial arts. Being proficient in the 1-2, the front kick, the single leg, osotogari and the rear naked choke will make you leaps and bounds better than the average joe provided you don't have a massive size disadvantage. Also add: a proper guard and footworkKeyword: proficient. And also constantly training
Now that I really think about it, Silat kind of fits the vibe. If you're trained, half the shit doesn't really work or apply, but if you're against an untrained opponent most of the stuff is very "pain compliance" and demoralizing attacks
Something that relies on reflex or attacking in an unorthodox way or odd areas.
>>251389Yeah, literally any martial art in which you've had some training
That’s just sport bjj. Against trained opponents most sport jiu jitsu goes out the window but against untrained people you can just start doing ridiculous flashy shit and it works because they don’t know what they’re doing. you could literally just pull guard and imanari roll/ bolo them and it works fine.
