I don't know if the initial 'fighting style' thing is technically a technique, if it is, I'll remove one of the techs to meet the 'max of 5 techs' per thread.
Name: Krav Maga
Class: Fighting Style
Type: Supplementary
Range: Self
Description: A martial art commonly thought of as brutal, merciless and efficient, Krav Maga emphasizes threat neutralization over everything else. If neutralizing the threat means rushing forward and punching the ‘threats’ teeth into their brain, then that’s the step you take. The highly tactical fighting style borrows techniques from aikido, judo, boxing and wrestling to form a combat system that is meant to end a fight as soon as physically possible. While the user of this fighting style can definitely be considered a weapon in their own right, Krav Maga uses brass knuckles to supplement its forms, therefore the use of brass knuckles are taken under the Hand to Hand mastery, and not the Weapon mastery for Krav practitioners.
Krav Maga is best trained with a partner or a fighting dummy as it focuses on aiming for weak spots and critical joints. Because of the brutal techniques in this style, it is advised that sparring partners wear protective equipment or have medics standing by.
Since its inception in the early 1930’s, Krav maga has become a world renowned fighting style for defense forces around the globe. It has also been taught to many civilians in the last decade or so, so finding a teacher or training ground isn’t too difficult.

Name: Wrist Break
Class: Hakuda
Tier: IV
Type: Offensive
Range: Close
Description: This is a very literal technique. When the opponent offers their hand, be it in a punch, block or some other extension of the hand, the user locks the arm and with a quick palm strike, shatters the wrist of the opponent. The wrist has to be healed before the hand can be used again, via some healing technique or through HSR.
Name: Hobble
Class: Hakuda
Tier: IV
Type: Supplementary
Duration: 3 Posts
Range: Close
Description: With such a high focus on ending the fight quickly, it is only natural to attack the weakest points on the threat. With this technique, the user targets a sensitive pressure point, and with a successful strike the threat suffers a 2x debuff to their speed from the pain.
Name: Disarm
Class: Hakuda
Tier: IV
Type: Supplementary
Range: Close
Description: Disarming is a significant part of Krav Maga. An opponents weapon makes them a greater threat and by removing the weapon makes the target easier to subdue. When the opponent offers their weapon, be it in a strike, block or some other extension, the user locks the arm and twists the weapon from the hand. This tends to send the weapon flying off at least ten meters, at which point the opponent has to retrieve the weapon if they want to try and use it again.
Name: Low Knee
Class: Hakuda
Tier: V
Type: Offensive
Range: Close
Description: This is a strike with the knee, aiming below the belt into the hip, thigh or groin. Between the leverage, bolstering rietsu and hardness of the knee, this attack is a staple of Krav practitioners.
Name: High Elbow
Class: Hakuda
Tier: IV
Type: Supplementary
Duration: 3 Posts
Range: Close
Description: This is a strike with the elbow, aiming above the belt into the collar bone, neck or head. The strike is meant to be quicker than it is strong, aiming to disorient or shock the opponent. This attack causes a 2x debuff to strength as the opponent is too disoriented to put full force into their blows.
