THE TACTIC OF NO DEFENCE DIRECT COUNTER
If you block a chopping attack, your arm may be broken
Counters may be classified into three levels, namely
- first defence, then counter
- defence cum counter
- no defence, direct counter
"False-Leg Hand Sweep" and "Immortal Emerges from Cave" shown here are examples of no "defence, direct counter". No defence is a misnomer, the defence is in the footwork.
Note that both "False-Leg Hand Sweep" and "Immortal Emerges from Cave" are not blocks, but strikes at the attacker's arm.
