Toribash: free and unusual fighting game.

[Corrado_Decimo]

I just started to play in a beginner's lobby. I had a 7 victory streak, even managed to piss of some experienced guy with my noobish grab and push, then kick the shit out of him tactics. 

  i'll try to see if i remember some simple kicks. anyway the judo mod is still the best. swords is for nabs

Wow..I am sooo bad at this game.

another +1, i did however manage an overhead jump katana flip attack resulting in a decap

[Christo]

Hmm, I started to get better and better, I even did a weird powerslam while backflip-kicking my opponent mid-air.

9 win streak, against quite good people in beginner's.

Damn I love this. 

Too bad I don't really have a flashy fighting style yet, I'm kinda like a wrestler, pushing and powerslamming people when I can.

I remember trying to play this before, emphasis on the trying part, I couldn't do anything other than flail about and fall over. 

[Corrado_Decimo]

the hard part is improvisation in the middle of a fight. especially when your next move preview is so messed in the grab part. there a experienced player knows how to move... i think i never had success in grabs so i just developed some opening kicks and jumps to get the upper hand in the first 2-3 moves or lose. the newbies rooms are good enough anyway. most of players start to grab with both arms in a horizontal clamp so a good start is to either go in a crouch position then use the legs as springs to jump and kick.

Decided to download it again today and for some reason I was much better at it than before lol, actually won a few matches against good rank players . Fun game!.

Heh, great fun! Already had a couple of hours of laughing my head off in free play at the complete ineffectiveness of trying to jump! xD

I'm kinda addicted to this game, got my green belt, playing intermediate levels atm.

One of the best discoveries so far. Cheers Corrado!

hah tell your friends i am guilty

[H4rdn3ssKill3r]

Anyway, which style do you guys use? floppy or uke?

I use uke most of the times, I like rigid powerfull punches and throws, unlike the floppy fast and manuverable punches and throws.

[Tennenoth]

I quite like the "flick your ankles to jump backwards flat on your back swinging wildly above the enemies head" move. I'm a complete noob and I cannot connect properly, the best thing I have done so far was rip my brothers head off by accident as he did the ankle jump into my floppy swing lol.

Could really do with some more move help xD

[Christo]

Youtube has some move tuts, also if you hit up things like:

"Toribash judo/whatever moves"

You'll get topics that tell some moves. I managed to split a multiplayer opponent in half the first frame with one of the moves lol.
I got lucky. 

[H4rdn3ssKill3r]

Basically, for me atleast, you need to keep posture, you falling on the floor uke style you basically have lost, also the grab is your friend, as a good posture with a good grab will rip a player in two, and if your quite good you can do a move that if the enemy player is moving they make it worse, but anyway, if you go floppy, I really cannot help you, since I suck at going floppy and it just results me looking like a retarded person trying to jump.
