What's your fighting style?

These are a few videos that basically optimize what I think of when JaK Sage is out there doing his thing. The idea is to let you guys see what I see in my head when roleplaying, this is mainly what JaK's athleticism and moves are based on.

American Dragon/Shaolin Kung Fu

(Since JaK is undisciplined remove the traditional hand movements when imagining him doing most of this.)

Nightwing Fighting Style

(Minus Escrima sticks and martial arts stance since he's again undisciplined.)

Extreme City Free Running/Parkour

(JaK is an expert at this, probably top 10 in human world and 25 in meta-human so he can keep the momentum/tempo in this vid going for about an hour or more.)

Wolverine Vs Spike w/others in forest.

(And of course in the heat of battle, his power of will to keep going even when in EXTREME PAIN! is akin to Wolverine, especially here minus the really fast healing.)

Robin Vs Titans

(Although, JaK Sage is no Dick Grayson if you replace Raven with Grace, Beast Boy with Toji, Starfire with Scope, and Cyborg with Psychosis in this clip. I imagine this would be result if he tried fighting his team.)

For some reason I end up thinking about Jackie Chan after that first video, but that's a good think, he's one of my favorite actors. I always pictured you as a Robin, Nightwing is just more of the same right?

Anyway, I always pondered about making a thread like this myself. Thought a lot about how to show Krious's unique fighting style thanks to his teleportation. At first this was hard, then X-Men First Class came out. Apologies up front, I don't have any audio right now so I don't know what music is playing in that video.


(Minus the tail and input his own weapons. Too bad it would be a bit OP to roleplay fights like this but it's a good representation.)

I also found a good video showing off his cybernetics and at the same time also shows some combat moves that fit quite well. Note that krious's sword only extend forward, not backwards from his elbow.



Nice thread JaK, I'm quite interested to see other people's fighting styles.

Until recently, Emblem Trailblazer's fighting style could be described as a mix of three principles;

* Muay Thai in the form of Zack from the Dead or Alive Series (Get up quick, hit hard 'n fast with your legs, move a lot to disrupt the opponent)

* Wrestling based moves such as Clotheslines and several throws uncluding Power Slams, Backbreakers, and the like...Wear out the opponent with pure powah :P

* FFFFFIIIIRREEEE!!!! Spells from every pyromancer I've ever seen and some I never saw before :P

though now, I think it moves towards the Jax / Mortal Kombat style of simply hitting hard, feeding on the adrenaline and the rage, and using FFFFFIIIRRREEEEE again :P

Will's strategy in up close fights play on waiting for his opponent's move and countering it with some technician style wrestling. Albeit, this could sync with his telepathy power, but everyone knows Will doesn't do that in fights. He honors a challenge

(Krious the music for your vid was epic! just FYI lol and and so was the other vid. Now many just assume Spider-Girl fights like Spider-man and in a way that's true, but not so. Just like JaK is similar to Nightwing who used to be Robin. He's still his own very much in style and attitude.)

Catwoman with her own version of a spider-sense in a way.

(For Spider-Girl her fighting style is exactly like Catwoman's in this game. It couldn't be like SPider-man really because she doesn't use weblines, but if you think of Catwoman in this video with Batmans gadgets instead of her whip, you'd be pretty accurate to what I think of when fighting as Sider-Girl. Just replace batarangs with web-bullets and walla.)

Spider-man vs Green Goblin

(However, if you rather see what it' like for Spider-girl to fight a singles opponent who can take a punch I'd go with this EXCELLENT stop motion. It represents her/and Spidey well. Again, replace all web-lines with a grappling hook or imagine her just leaping to that position.)

Spider-man vs Sinister SIx

(This video shows Spider-man's ability to take a (LOT OF) hit(s) and how he can out think dire situations. Since Spider-Girl is bassed on him and he's my favorite charrie ever she can do all of this too. Especially when wearing black suit shes more inventitive than just using it for web-lines. However, she's no where near as smart as Spidey or this durable. Maybe when wearing her own symbiote or the Spider-armor she can take this kind of a beating, but continuous pounding from people with super strength can put her down quicker than Spider-man here.)

Dar's fighting style is closest to that of Mr. 1 from One Piece.

Just take away the spinning blades on his arms and you pretty much have Dar. He relies on his brute strength to tear through opponents. His original weapons were claws, and although he now carries an axe, he still specializes in fighting with his hands. Dar's true advantage, however, is in his ability to keep getting up after being struck down. I think Mr. 1 shows this rather well.

Nightmare is a sort of less controlled version of Zuko with Azula's fire, and Superboy doesn't really need to be described if you've watched Young Justice

Lol, I like Scope described as Starfire JaK, except probably minus all the flying. I'm not really familiar with a lot of fighting styles, but, I suppose I'd include a sort of Jackie Chan fighting style where he just uses random things to fight with. I imagined Scope as usually running out of his own weapons quickly and then having to use random things around the landscape like lead pipes or whatever is available.

I suppose he uses a little of Sokan. (Yes, I know it's a lightsaber form but that's kind of all the combat stuff I know since I've been off and on with Star Wars RP sites.)

Correct, epic music, I'm gonna look that one up in HQ, And that's the second Arkham City clip you posted. Awesome combat, I really need to find the time to progress in that game...

Thr33: Sokan isn't really a lightsaber form, more like a tactic to gain control through use of the environment. Which would go pretty good with Jackie Chan's style IMO. (Yes, this makes me even worse than you on SW lore...)

Libbey's fighting style is capoeira; keep em guessing, make em guess wrong and always keep em off kilter with lightning fast kicks, cartwheels, flips, takedowns, counters and more!

she also might throw a fireball or two your way, just to make doubly sure you stay on edge!

Ethan's is more simple and robust, with Mixed martial arts: boxing, karate and plenty of kickboxing techniques; Muay Thai, american and french primarily for good measure.

Ben 10,000 Vs Vilgax, Animo, & Kevin 11

(This video basically dictates how I fight with Ben, use one aliens abilities until he gets overwhelmed and then switch off. Sometimes even setting up combination attacks between switches.)

Toji's style, is of course, rough and fast. Think of Tiger Style and Freerunning mixed.

Hmm...Furi's style, I think/see as a mixture between Undertaker, Big Show, Triple Hand The Hulk. Big, strong, heavy hitter

Though when he becomes more animalistic or runs on instinct, I'd say more Wolverine-style

You know Wolverine has learned how to fight? He's been trained. For your example, it'd been better to say someone like Sabretooth

Grace Koori's fighting style is similar to Aokiji from One Piece. She freezes things with a touch, forms and controls weapons made of ice, and flies. She prefers to fight at a distance, but she can handle herself in-close as well.
