Xing Yi was in MKDA!

Jade/Tanya - Sun Bin

Xing Yi is not new. It was used by Kano in MKDA.

Here are some others I’ve seen in the game so far:
Moi Fah
Silate
Hung Gar
Ying Yeung
Mian Chuan
Gojuryu
Val Tudo
Zha Chuan
Fu Jow Pai
Choujaio
Baji Quan
Huachuan
Choy Lee Fut

I didn’t put characters with them because fighting styles change a lot between characters before the final release.

Let me reword. I have found some new fighting styles for charcters in deception who prior to the new Bios were unknown. They also changed Hotaru's style, Gojuryu, to Ba Shan Fan.

WHAT!!!!! Lui Kang - Jun Fan!

Oh geeeeeeeeeeeeeez!!!! You're telling me he's using Jeet Kune Do?! If that isn't a Bruce Lee ripoff, I don't know what is.

Ghost Dragon - I suppose the chicken noises weren't enough indication. Not to mention the constant referalls to Dragon.

Hey, and Bo' Rai Cho fights with Sumo against Havik (and this the Morning Star, the Li Mei'weapon in E3)

"A martial-arts STYLE often strives for a uniformity in application and technique. The SDS Jeet Kune Do SYSTEM provides a set of excercises, drills and concepts. Every individual's Jeet Kune Do will be different from every other individual's Jeet Kune Do.

That is why Jeet Kune Do is an ART. A System is a fixed formula and way of doing things also. If Jeet Kune Do was meant to be a "system", then it would be called "intercepting fist system", or Jeet Kune Ryu. The Do is there for a purpose.

The "Original" Jeet Kune Do martial art system (Jun Fan) is taught by Jeet Kune Do Association instructors"

Well, the Jun Fan is also a Bruce Lee's fighting style

It's not a "style". Bruce didn't mean for it to be called that. It's more of a Martial Philospohy.

Well, I have been looking for by the Google, and in many webs appears "Jun Fan/Jeet Kune Do", and in other webs appears that the Jun Fan is taught as style of more basic fighters, and the JKD is taught for the most trained fighters.

yeh that's true

Aaargh!

ALRIGHT!!! I'M GONNA CALL THE MK TEAM OUT ON SOMETHING RIGHT NOW CAUSE THEY DESERVE IT!

Here's the deal...

Jun Fan is and never was meant to be called a "style". That is percisely what Bruce Lee wanted to break away from; doctrine bases systems that placed a heavy emphasis on the style over the individual student. The fact that Jun Fan practitionaers are calling Jun Fan/Jeet Kune Do a style means that they need to learn more about Bruce's phillosophy and his ideas in developing it.

And the fact that the MK Team, with all their research that thay have done in MKDA and in MKD, gave Cage a style in addition to Jeet Kune Do is sad! They should have either left him only with Jun Fan/Jeet Kune Do, or simply given him two different styles. And to give Liu Kang Jun Fan and possibly an additional style is a contradiction to Bruce Lee's phillosophy and the phillosophy of Jun Fan.

*slapps the research team on their hands*

They should have known better.

Authenticism and Mortal Kombat seem to be mutually exlusive.

Yes but which Style does Sumo replace. Druken Fist or Mi Zong. Probably Mi Zong because his fatality includes his bottle of shine. So this infers that he will keep his druken fist style.

Please click my signature which shows all of the known styles.

This lends credence to my theory that the original drunken master concept was _combined_ with the Evil Sumo concept (both can be seen in the Krypt) to create Bo' Rai Cho.

thx

I always thought Jeet Kune Do was free flowing, but Jun Fan was a style that was used by Bruce Lee to contruct it.
