How do y'all clean the blades?

I mean how do y'all clean them before cutting and after cutting? I use antiseptic to clean them both before and after but it's a pain in the neck to do that (I'm lazy), I have to use cotton and stuff to clean etc. How do y'all do it?

Same stats, no weapons, street fight, who wins?

I js found these two stances to be similar so why not?

They're both in their prime btw.

My take is that Yu wins purely because of talent and because the stats are also same. Otherwise Kitae Obv wins. Also no overcome, masteries or path. Just physical stats which are equal.

I'm so happy with myself today

It's obvious that I'm having a history of sh and that's the reason I'm here but I've been controlling them from a long time even though I kept having urges I nearly cut myself few weeks ago like the tool was touching my skin and withdrew

Few days ago I completed one of the most physically and mentally draining phase of my life with a few friends (a 5km run was a part of it, every day, empty stomach) I'm so satisfied and today I completed 2km of jogging all by myself! No music no friends to motivate no nothing just raw dogged it for the first time in my life I completed 2kms of jogging! I'm so happy today

Fighting style Part 2: Unique skills

Y'all know about the series I'm making, but I'm gonna bring that up anyway.

Today's topic is Unique skills.

Firstly, think about this. I am very skilled at making food, so are you (yes you, the one reading or listing this). I'm very good at making, let's say, Mexican food and you're very good at making Chinese food.

We both have our own techniques, I cut tomatoes in a different way than yours, you marinate chicken in a different way than mine, so yk we got our own methods.

Now I get a disciple and teach him everything, you get a disciple and teach him everything. Our disciples now have our techniques, your disciple has yours and my disciple has my technique. These cooking skills cannot be learned unless they are taught. The only exception is that a highly, extraordinary man with a born gift to copy sees us and learns/copies out techniques.

"What the fuh is this talking about? Gordon Ramsay is that? Get out unc" is probably what you're thinking, but as always, hear me out gng trust the process. This was an example, remember this for a moment.

Firstly, why is a unique skill? It's a technique that you either invent or learn(from another person) or (copy so far only Jinyoung can do this)

What's the difference between a normal attachment and a unique skill?

(Please tell me you have read Questism 😭)

Think of this like this, it's a skill card (from Questism). You can either use this card, which gives you a huge buff in all aspects, increases the chances of landing a critical hit, catching the opponent off guard etc. they may not have all of this necessarily, all unique skills might have different buffs. But they do have different buffs.

Or

You can use that same technique without using the card.

"Is the language you speak called shit? Cuz all of this sounds like an ahh pull" gng shut up a listen.

Y'all remember when Tom did that Unique Skill on James which even Gap was not able to dodge (Idr the name)? He also did the same thing on Goo but didn't use masteries while doing it. It's because when he did it on James he used the "Unique Skill Card" and on Goo he didn't.

"Stop the cope☝️🤓" what part of shut up do you not understand gng? Leave the explanation to me.

Take another example, let's say you're playing a game on your phone.

You can either play normally or you can switch on the ultra gaming mode which will enhance your phones performance. Same phone same game but different performance.

When Tom did that on Goo he didn't use the "ultra gaming mode " (or the Unique Skill Card I was talking about), but when he did it on James he used the card. That's why the technique was the same but the output was different.

In case you have never played any game and don't know what ultra gaming mode is, here's another example.

Let's say I wanna break a wall (not the potential thingy, I mean an actual wall the one made of bricks) first I use a hammer, then I use a bulldozer. It's the same wall, I'm the one breaking it, but the method is different.

So now connects the dots, when Tom did that technique on James he used a "bulldozer" (the unique skill card) and when he uses it on Goo he used a hammer.

And remember unique skill can be used without masteries too, take Daniel for example. He uses Gun's "Keishen Seiken" (the 17 strike attack, idk how to spell it) without it's a mastery even though it's obviously a unique skill.

Don't believe me? Hear me out again.

You remember when Jag hit Taeseo out of nowhere while they were in Busan? Go look at that kick and then go look at his "death kick" it's literally looks like the same kick but the outcome is so different.

I don't think it has much to do with masteries because Daniel uses Gun's unique skill but has no masteries yet.

Now that we've discussed that it's a "unique skill card", let's go more in depth about this card and how to activate it.

How do you get this card?

By developing the skill yourself eg Tom has a lot of these cuz he developed all of them himself (he didn't have any mention)

Another way to achieve this is by trainning under the person who originally had the skill. For example, take "Overturning Void Technique "(I don't remember the name properly. It's the technique that Jag learned from Yeowool's father), he earned that card by being trained under him.

Now, how can you have the same technique but one isn't a unique skill and one isn't? It depends on the user, if the user's intent is to use a unique skill, the card gets used and that attack becomes a unique skill, if that's not the users intention then it'll just be a normal attack.

Take Rom for example, he did that attack on James and it was a unique skill but on Goo it wasn't a unique skill.

Uses of this card gives you buff like I said earlier, it can give you a variety of buffs but it also enhances overall attack like AP, Speed etc. Of the attack will increase. Like if that skill is 10 in attack power, AP will become 50 (these numbers are just for the sake of giving an example and don't represent a fixed number).

It doesn't necessarily have to be an attack, it can also be something else like Paecheon Dark Blood technique (where he becomes black due to increased blood circulation and stuff) isn't an attack it's just related to his body.

That's all for today gng. Thanks for reading.

Path Series Part 2: Jinyoung's Path Explained

Y'all know about the series so I won't yap much let's start with the explanation. First you gotta understand what a fighting style is, check out this post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lookismpowerscaling1/s/73iTLWmczD Check out the attached images first I won't be referencing them up ahead.

Let's start. Now Jinyoung, as we know, has so far the best copy (according to Jinyoung himself). Lets understand how his copy works. "Monkey see, monkey do" that's it. That's exactly how it works, according to Jinyoung himself. But what's different between his and Daniels/Johns copy that make him supirior to them when it comes to copy? He can not only copy normal moves but also unique skills, which so far hasn't been done by Daniel or John (so far).

The fact that he can copy unique skills is not something to overlook as it hints at his path. Look a character's unique skills (a post on unique skills coming soon btw) are like special moves. A similar analogy is that you can find cars all over the world but companies like Mercedes, Rolls Royce have their own touch to it. Watches can be found all over the world but Rolex, Patek Philips, Jacob and Co have something unique about their watches that nobody can produce. So unique skills are focused around the strengths of the fighters like motor sports bikes are focused around speed cuz that's their speciality. Jinyoung can copy these unique skills that already means he can copy the speciality of a fighter indirectly. What does all this bs has to do with his path? "Why is this guy yapping so much?" Trust the process lil bro.

So Jinyoung's path allows him to not only copy the moves but the speciality of a fighting style itself (not referring to unique skills here). "Fym?" Hear me out. For example: Elites fighting style is based on speed. "But he's a strategist ☝️🤓" he's a strategist that fights really fast. Taeseo's fighting style is literally "right right good night" it's focused around brute strength, same for Kitae. Straight up whooping. Jinyoung's path allows him to take all this stuff like the movement of Elite, rawness of Kitae, technique of some other character and then blend it all up to make a new fighting style that suits himself. "Huh?" Hear me out. Imagine this one day I wake up and I wanna eat chicken, I wanna eat pasta, I was something spicy. What do I do? Option 1. Make three separate dishes one with pasta, different one with chicken and a different one with a lot of spice Option 2. Make really spicy chicken pasta (I'm sorry to the Italians reading this if it sounds like an abomination I'm not from Itly) The second option is what Jinyoung does. Takes everything, blends up everything and then makes a new fighting style itself. What pee path Jinyoung did is let's say he's copying Tom and Elite. Hell copy Tom and Elite separately (Option 1. Make three separate dishes one with pasta, different one with chicken and a different one with a lot of spice) what his path allows him to do is copy Tom and Elite at the same time. "What?" He'll copy Tom's fighting style with Elites speed or Elites fighting style with Tom's strength (which is Option 2. Make really spicy chicken pasta)

One thing I wanna make clear is that I don't think Jinyoung can copy the stats, remember everything lies within the movement of the body. Now I want you to take a pause and look up two things on YouTube Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson. You'll notice Tyson's punches, movement, footwork is very different from Muhammad Ali. Mike Tyson is kinda slow compared to Muhammad Ali but his punches are destructive and Muhammad Ali is faster but his punches don't look as heavy as Mike Tyson's. I don't mean to disrespect any of the legends, I like them both this is just for the purpose of explanation. What Jinyoung will do is fight fast like Muhammad Ali but punch heavy like Mike Tyson. He won't copy their stats but their technique itself. This is what his path allows him to do. I hope y'all understood what I just said and this wasn't some boring yap session. Thanks for reading. Oh yeah the next post of the Path series will be about Daniel's path. John's path will take a lot of time because today I realised that just long paragraphs won't explain his path so I'll have to do some animation. Can I animation? No lol, so I'll have to learn how to animate and then explain his path through animations. Don't expect much it'll be a stickman animation. Thanks for reading.

Gun might have the biggest unique skill arsenal in all of Lookism

This isn't Gun glaze btw just my thoughts.

What I'm trying to say is Gun probably has the biggest unique skill arsenal in all of Lookism.

I"Jinyoung copied a lot of people" no I mean like unique skills that were developed like Jinyoung js copied all of them.

Why I'm saying this is because we saw Jinyoung use Shingen's unique skill in his fight against Kitae and even Kenzo I think used one or two of em. Daniel also spams "Keisen Shiken" (I'm not sure if I spelled it right) but I don't think we ever saw Gun use any of them.

Why does he have the biggest arsenal of original unique skills? Because think about it

Tom developed his own unique skills, same for other charecters but Gun's whole family is into the making of Yamazaki style Kyokushin Karate so there's a lot of talented minds or a lot of minds behind this style of fighting, cultivating it through at least 3 generations (Gun, Shingen and Shinji) so Gun or Yamazaki style Kyokushin Karate itself should have a ton of unique skills. I think I'll make a post on unique skills today and probably on Jinyoung's path too.

How to maintain hygiene?

So I wanna cut really bad but dk about the hygiene part. I've posted about this before too but I didn't actually cut (changed my mind later). Someone tell me if this is enough

Use antiseptic to clean the blade then the area where I'll do it then clean the area again with antiseptic after I'm done

Is this enough? I don't want it to get infected or something.

what's the one thing you that makes you like Gun?

Like a reason why you like Gun. I like him because of his mentality like he never backs down no matter what. Whoever is the opponent, whatever his condition is he just doesn't care. "Fuh it we ball" mentality.

u/Sad-Laugh-1900 — 2 months ago

What's the reason you like Daniel?

For me it's his journey. How he overcame himself and stuff. What makes his journey special is that most useful can relate to it, at least some part of it. Like someone got in good shape after a long time, overcame bullying, his character development etc.

Like there must be something that makes you like James, his appearance, his writing etc.

Ipersonally like him because of how he is portrayed. Untouchable, smart, strong. He's like perfect in the sense that he has everything, not only as a fighter but as a human itself. Especially his talent, he's an all rounder. What about y'all l?

Do you think we'd be able to win against Kitae if everyone in all of Lookism's subs jumped Kitae?

The rules are

Evryone jumps him

Everyone somehow knows karate (don't ask me how)

You can repeat like if I'm in this sub and Gap's sub then it'll be two of me instead of one if I'm in 3 lookism related subs then there's 3 of me and so on

I just realised something Gun > Kitae and we can back it up without bringing feats

Look Kitae has Yamazaki bloodline Gun also has the same bloodline.

BUT Gun was born with TUI which obviously isn't the case with Kitae otherwise he would've always been in UI or something.

So Gun has TUI and Kitae doesn't.

It's stated that: born with UI> not born with UI

Hence proved Gun>Kitae

u/Sad-Laugh-1900 — 3 months ago

Kitae potentially has almost EVERY ability KNOWN in Lookism

He has:

Path

UI (probably hasn't awakened it yet or something but it's doable)

All masteries

Black Bones (probably cuz Yamazaki bloodline)

Despair

Conviction (Gap's seed so yk. Ig he'll unlock it later WHICH I HOPE WILL NEVER HAPPEN)

Copy - Since he has copy ability he can most likely also copy other styles like Animal instinct 😭

He doesn't have IA though

Bros a walking arsenal 😭 no wonder that mf is called "Despair" 😭

GUYZZZ I think I understand conviction now 😼

So lemme tell y'all what we'll discuss in this post, why conviction gives you HUGE buff and why someone like Vasco cannot awaken it even though he has the will to protect. This will be based on the Questism Power Scaling System btw.

Let's start

My theory is that apart from determination, will to protect etc. conviction also depends on the potential of the person.

Yes, like potential is a factor BUT it has to be triggered by something. One without the other isn't of any use.

No will to protect+potential=no conviction

Will to protect+no potential=no conviction

Will to protect+potential=conviction

Which kinda makes sense to me at least because so far we've only seen characters with high potential able to use it. Jinrang, Jake, Jinyoung, Gap etc. but the characters who have a strong will to protect don't have conviction like Vasco. He's strong but he doesn't have enough potential.

Now the question is why does someone like Daniel or John doesn't have conviction. It's because there's some factor that triggers conviction and these people didn't trigger conviction. That's the best explanation I can come up with.

Now, why does it give you buff?

Think of it like this:

Conviction gives you buffs proportional to your potential.

Example

Vasco has 100 potential, when he uses conviction it gives him a buff of 10% of his potential. 10% of 100 is 10, so he gets 10 more points of attack power, speed or whatever.

Now say Gap has 100000 potential, when he uses conviction, he gets a buff of 10% of his potential and 10% of 100,000 is 10,000.

See the difference? Basically what I'm trying to say is conviction uses your potential like utilises your potential to give you a buff.

More potential=more buff

And it's been stated several times that Gap and his bloodline have "infinite" potential that's why when Gap uses conviction he gets a huge buff because his potential is utilised a lot and his potential doesn't end.

Also one more thing I think is conviction gives you temporary buffs as well as permenent buffs, which are again directly proportional to your potential.

So through conviction Gap built a body that can handle conviction but Jinrang didn't have enough potential and hence he couldn't conviction to build a strong enough body to handle conviction.

TLDR:

Conviction levels up the character themselves.

Now by how much the character is leveled up upon using conviction depends on their potential.

Let's say the attack potency of Jinrang is 100 and Gap's is 100 too (these numbers are just for explaining and don't have any significance other that explaining)

Gaps potential is 100 and Jinrang's potential is 10.

When Jinrang uses conviction, conviction makes his attack potency go from 100 to 10 (or 10% of his potential but potential is not leveled up I'm only talking about attack potency)

On the other hand when Gap uses it to punch his attack potency goes from 100 to 200 (an increment in his attack potency by 10% of his potential)

In simpler words the higher potential you have the greater buff you'll get when you use conviction but conviction itself does not level up the potential of a character.

Now the question is why does someone like Daniel or John doesn't have conviction. It's because there's some factor that triggers conviction and these people didn't trigger conviction. That's the best explanation I can come up with.

Now, why does it give you buff?

Think of it like this:

Conviction gives you buffs proportional to your potential.

Example

Vasco has 100 potential, when he uses conviction it gives him a buff of 10% of his potential. 10% of 100 is 10, so he gets 10 more points of attack power, speed or whatever.

Now say Gap has 100000 potential, when he uses conviction, he gets buff of 10% of his potential and 10% of 100,000 is 10,000.

See the difference? Basically what I'm trying to say is conviction uses your potential like utilises your potential to give you a buff.

More potential=more buff

And it's been stated several times that Gap and his bloodline have "infinite" potential that's why when Gap uses conviction he gets a huge buff because his potential is utilised a lot and his potential doesn't end.

Also one more thing I think is conviction gives you temporary buffs as well as permenent buffs, which are again directly proportional to your potential.

So through conviction Gap built a body that can handle conviction but Jinrang didn't have enough potential and hence he couldn't conviction to build a strong enough body to handle conviction.
