So i have been winning with this strategy for a while now, and people seem to get upset when i win with this tactic. Is there something wrong with it? Is it a cheap tactic (like shovels)?
The replays pretty much shows my tactic.
Moves which are easy to do (can be done symmetrically without too much risk and timing) and are very hard to defend against are generally frowned upon because it makes the game less fun if everyone uses the same uncomplicated tactic all the time, people like variation and more interesting games. If a move's existence makes a mod more boring then people don't tend to like it. I can't see your replays because of my computer so I can't see exactly what you're talking about.
If the move would work if it was symmetrical then it is the same. If people complain about you lifting in akido then try akidobigdojo where lifting is more acceptable.
I try to make my moves realistic and kind of stylish whenever I can afford to so nobody can complain that I am using noob moves… It also gives me an excuse when I get beaten by newbies and lower belts. :3 have a nice day.
