yamamura Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 A hero sneaks into an enemy strong hold. As he goes he takes out his katana and begins to slash at the ropes holding up portals, etc. to no obvious effect. But as he leaves (he has good timing) the ropes are suddenly cut and portcullises begin to drop, cutting off his enemies. So any idea of a good name for this maneuver?

"Falling Petal Guillotine Strike" I didn't think of Dim Mak (which can work) but I like both "The Blow that Waits" and "Falling Petal Guillotine Strike" (though I might shorten it to "Falling Petal Strike".
