The Matchless Kungfu – How to Get More Starting Moves

Quick Guide to Getting More Starting Moves

By Kajanov.

There’s one inner skill that adds one void move; that’s all I can recall outside of gear.

What gear can do is there’s a legendary that “improves technique effects” and the “starting moves” property.

With True Method, you can also put Hands of Theft as your first skill. With Chi of Harmony at 5, it steals 2 moves, or Casual Palm at guru for 3 extra moves, but you have to cast those.

Also, you need moves in your deck.

  • Your deck contains one of all three unarmed moves by default.
  • +1 weapon for equipping a weapon. +1 hidden for equipping a hidden weapon.
  • And after that, all the moves that are required for all 6 of your equipped skills.

So if you were to equip only palm skills, for example, your deck will be full of palms, making it easier to activate palms. But you also want to combo.

Combo: Perform 3 different moves in a round and draw 2-3 extra moves. Also, doing 4 of the same move draws more of that move from your deck.

If your whole deck is drawn, it is reshuffled and reset. Imagine putting used moves in a discard pile. When your deck is exhausted, reshuffle your discard pile to make your new deck.

With the above (except starting moves gear, with improved technique), I get more moves in-play than the game wants to let me, making me discard some on round 2. (3 kept from previous turn, +3 from Casual Palm, +2 stolen from opponent).

Notice, the enemy does not move in the screenshot.

In the screenshot, I would first save all the void moves, then grab the 2 kicks and use the fist to change the weapon into fist, at which point I draw the last 3 moves (bottom left corner) in my deck, resetting it and grabbing all the fists, of which there are 4 plus the one changed weapon.

When drawing the 4th fist, 3 are taken from my deck -> I get 4 on the field to draw another 3 for a total of 11 fist moves. Then grab the last palm, and then there are the 3 moves that were drawn by combo, which we can’t see here, but they don’t change, so you can do the combo once to see what you get. Let go of the mouse button to start over in order to be able to react to what was drawn by it.
