Wushu - opener, kick/punch, run.
Aikido - opener, fight/struggle, dq.
Yes, right, because you're obviously the most experienced wushu player ever and are able to judge that wushu is only openers and running. I take it you've never played wushu before with experienced players. All the guys in Alpha would make you look stupid for implying that.
Hoss.

I mean, one of the main draws to Toribash is to 'Create Your Own Moves'... right?
Meh.
That's a fair point. However, not everyone wants to create moves. I never created a move of my own and I can hold myself decently in wushu without failing badly. Winning in an aikido match does not require creating moves. It depends upon how well you use joints to counter or create momentum.

When skilled aikido players fight in the normal mod the match keeps going longer because they don't get pushed out the dojo. So long as you know how to counter basic moves the fight will often come down to points.

You could apply that to pretty much any mod.
I maintain that ABD's invention is on par with with the TK "no snapkicking baaaw" faggotry. If you can't counter being lifted/shoveled then simply put you suck at the mod. Hell we still have to put up with people whinging about being lifted in ABD because that's obviously cheating. ¬_¬ lol noobs.
<Erf> SkulFuk: gf just made a toilet sniffing joke at me
<Erf> i think
<Erf> i think i hate you
I used to play aikido a lot, I love it, improvise the whole time
Now that I tried wushu, i love it too xD it's fun trying to maneuver the tori to comeback at the right position and the right direction
technically, the only goal in abd is to fracture the opponent so badly they can't move anything to stop them from dqing... either that or it goes to the points
the only ones i don't like are judo and taekkyon cuz it's always the same openers

Taekkyon is pretty awesome so long as you're playing against the right people; if they're spamming the same opener over & over again they aint the right people.
