Warrior Cats Fighting Techniques

[center][font=georgia]Fighting Techniques
--------------------------------------------------
One of the most important skills a mentor must teach an
apprentice is how to fight. Warriors are often called upon to
defend the borders or protect the Clan from attack, whether by
enemy Clans or predators like badgers and foxes. Even medicine
cats must learn enough fighting technique to be useful in
battle.
Back kick
Explosive surprise move to catch opponent from behind. Judge
opponent's distance from you carefully; then lash out with your
back legs, taking your weight on your front paws.
Belly rake
A fight-stopper. Slive with unsheathed claws across soft flesh
of opponent's belly. If you're pinned down, the belly rake
quickly puts you back in control.
Front paw blow
Frontal attack. Bring your front paw down hard on your
opponent's head. Claws sheathed.
Front paw strike
Frontal attack. Slice downward with your front paw at the body
or face of your opponent. Claws unsheathed.
Killing bite
A death blow to the back of the neck. Quick and silent and
sometimes considered dishonorable (see Warrior Code). Used only
as a last resort.
Leap-and-hold
Ideal for a small cat facing a large opponent. Spring onto
opponent's back and grip with unsheathed claws. Now you are
beyong the range of your opponent's paws and in position to
inflict severe body wounds. A group of apprentices can defeat a
large and dangerous warrior in this way. It was deployed to
great effect against BloodClan's deputy, Bone. Watch for the
drop-and-roll countermove, and try to jump free before you get
squashed.
Partner fighting
Warriors who have trained and fought together will often
instinctively fall into a paired defensive position, each
protecting the other's back while fending off an opponent on
either side. Slashing, clawing, and leaping together, battle
pairs can be a whirlwind of danger for attackers.
Play dead
Effective in a tight situation, such as when you are pinned.
Stop struggling and go limp. When your opponent relaxes his
grip, thinking you are defeated, push yourself up explosively.
This will throw off an unwary opponent and put you in an
attacking position.
Scruff shake
Secure a strong teeth grip in the scruff of your opponent's
neck; then shake violently until he or she is too rattled to
fight back. Most effective against rats, which are small enough
to throw. A strong throw will stun or kill them.
Teeth grip
Target your opponent's extremities—the legs, tail, scruff, or
ears—and sink in your teeth and hold. This move is similar to
the leap-and-hold except your claws remain free to fight.
Upright lock
Final, crushing move on already weakened opponent. Rear up on
back legs and bring full weight down on opponent. If opponent
does same, wrestle and flip him under you. This move makes you
vulnerable to the belly rake, so requires great strength and
speed.

--------------------------------------------------
Leap-and-cover
Ideal for making your opponent feel much pain, leap onto your
opponent's back and put your paws over their eyes. For the
moment the opponent is blinded, sink your claws into the soft
skin around their eyes. If your opponent doesn't run away, take
advantage of their temporary blindness and perform leap-and-hold
move.
Double death bite
Seems dishonorable and is only used against very evil cats. A
partner and you take on one cat. Once you've got a hold of your
opponent, your partner helps hold down enemy cat, and you both
bite hard down on enemy cat's throat. Two pairs of jaws will cut
off airway and cat will choke to death. Like I said, it's
considered dishonorable and would only be used against evil cats
like Tigerstar, Darkstripe or any cats of BloodClan.
Dizzy dance
Only can be preformed by a extremely small and quick cat against
a larger and at least somewhat slower cat. The cat charges head
on then swiftly leaped sideways, ducking under the cat then as
soon as the cat preforming this attack is out from under the
other cat it spins and leaps over it. Then once More spins but
rams the side then jumps over/goes under the cat and rams the
other side then land one final blow by leaping onto the cat's
back and grabbing the scruff with teeth and using your free paws
to batter the cat's head. This attack should in the end result
in a dizzy or confused enemy.
Back rake
A bit like Belly rake, if your a SkyClan cat this move works
best. If your fighting a cat from the front, jump over the cats
head and score your claws down their back.
(Un)balancing act
If a cat is going to bring down all its weight on you while
rearing on its back legs, role towards your opponents hind legs
to unbalance him.
Dizzy tackle
A great move for swift young warriors facing older, larger
warriors. You run in circles around them at top speed until
their to dizzy or tired (if the were chasing you) to keep up.
Then you tackle them. While they are down, attack. Caution,
standing directly over them makes you vulnerable to the Belly
Rake. This is a One-on-one move and is not recommended in a
place with many foes.
Making sure
You never know if a opponent is actually dead. When an opponent
goes limp, they become vunerable, so make sure they are really
dead. Bite and slash. Claws unsheathed. When you think they have
gone to StarClan, pray and leave.
Tail trip
The opponent moves to you and at the right moment, trip them
with your tail. [/font][/center]
