Bab 1095: Control

Speed was both multi-faceted like strength and multi-varied like stamina. There were different kinds of speed just like there were different kinds of strength, and there were multiple variables that decided speed, just like they did for stamina.

Speed could roughly be divided into three categories; combat speed, maneuvering speed, and reaction speed.

Combat speed generally referred to the movement speed of the body when engaging in combat motions, like striking, charging, or dodging, and the many smaller and undefined motions that Martial Artists frequently make.

Maneuvering speed referred to the movement speed when Martial Artists shift from one point to another in combat, including motions like sidesteps, shuffles, dashes, and sprints.

Reaction speed referred to the speed at which the body can receive, process, and respond to external stimuli like an incoming punch.
