Kumite

Two players battle it out in the attempt to knock out their opponent. If you decrease your opponent's health to zero, you win. Players manage a dojo of skills using Experience Points to build a deck of attack and defense cards that can adapt to an opponent’s evolving strategy. The linear mat component allows players to control distance to avoid damage and get in range to strike. Stuns and takedowns break an opponent’s rhythm leaving him/her without enough stamina to pull off brutal combos. Holds can create an opening for attack and often work in combination with other moves creating another level of strategy.
