Well then if rush moves allow for easy wins, it clearly shows that most people need to learn some defensive moves / how to defend themselves.
So I think that rank has at least *some* meaning. Since wushu is not all about the first 2 moves..

They'd do an opener perfectly, then they'd either fall over and dq, or tripod. ._.
It was funny, really. They kept saying "use a different opener" to eachother.
*Sigh*... I love multiplayer games.

This is the main reason of this org's existance

To show the right example, and improve wushu skill around tb.

well, impro is probably the only way to improve skills in wushu, that not bad to enforce it ;)

Wrong. In the past ppl were using almost only openers, even pr0s like KamiKo, and they were way better than players nowadays. You can use premade moves in first 100-150frames, then You have to use Your skill- even at wushufixed it's 350frames left, not even talking about brushu (Ed + MF + dt + df)...
So no. Impro has minor impact at general wushu skill. It's more like being a gentleman than being better. And giving Your opponent the same chance to win- You have the same amount of time for each move. Not for ex. 2weeks of making 60speed zomg op kick which will destroy Your opponent in 100frames...
Gonna repeat myself: impro is more like "being fair" than "being better".

i learned how to make setups and comebacks after i started to improv, so it's clearly helps.

i was and still doing random crap and set up mysefl, this is how i learned to set up from any position. and comeback.

starting with same thing all the time would not give such diversity.

nope. it's not.

when you start with openers you can't do anything except openers you memorized.

when you start to improv you don't rely on openers anymore so the game is the same after first 2 turns.


2 situations:

1) player learned some openers from youtube and can't do shit after first 2 turns
for him game is different after first 2 turns. opener is done and he have no idea what to do.

2) person play on improv and checked some replays with comebacks and setups,
game is no different for him after first 2 turns. he continue to do what he want.

thats the difference
