👉 A linking weapon, often referred to as a "linking thrust" or "linking strike," is a combat technique in which an attacker uses a series of rapid, connected strikes to target multiple points on an opponent's body simultaneously. This approach aims to overwhelm the defender by attacking several areas at once, making it difficult for them to effectively defend. The term "linking" refers to the way these strikes are connected, creating a continuous and fluid assault that can exploit vulnerabilities and disrupt the opponent's balance or coordination. This tactic is commonly used in various martial arts disciplines, such as Muay Thai and Boxing, to create openings for further attacks or to incapacitate the opponent quickly.
