🔥 Superhuman
This well-balanced style offers excellent strength, knockback, and good DPS. It’s a solid choice for mid-to-endgame content, though it lacks the mobility of Electric Claw or the burst of Dragon Talon.
Overall community opinion: Powerful, but slightly outclassed by newer or more specialized styles. Great for players who want a straightforward and reliable style.
🟨 Good Tier (B-Tier)
They’re not optimal for endgame PvP, but they have their merits in grinding or raids.

💥 Water Kung Fu
The base form of Sharkman Karate, Water Kung Fu has solid moves and pairs well with Buddha builds during early-to-mid gameplay.
Overall community opinion: These styles are stepping stones to better ones. They provide great value during the transition period and are worth using until players unlock their evolved versions.
🟩 Decent Tier (C-Tier)
This style is usable, but it is running low on in-combat in most of situations.
🐍 Dragon Breath
Dragon Breath has flashy animations and moderate range, but lacks the power and versatility needed for higher-level combat. It’s decent in early Third Sea, but you’ll want to switch soon.
Overall community opinion: Fun to use, but not competitive. Mostly used for Dragon Talon progression.
🟨 Lacking Tier (D-Tier)
This game style is highly running low on gameplay style.
🔥 Flame (V1 fighting style)
Often confused with Flame Fruit, this style lacks range and speed. Its attacks are clunky and hard to land, making it inefficient in almost every scenario.
Overall community opinion: Low damage, poor range, and limited practical value. Not recommended for serious players.
🟦 Bad Tier (E-Tier)
These styles are one of the most outdated in the whole game, bringing to the table only struggle even on early game.
🔵 Electric V1 (Basic Shock)
Extremely weak compared to Electric Claw. The damage scaling is poor, and it’s easily dodged in PvP.

This version lacks everything its evolved form (Dragon Talon) offers. It’s clunky, weak, and a pain to grind with.
⚫ Black Leg (V1)
An early form of Dark Step, this fighting style lacks proper hitboxes and has awkward animations. Players often skip it entirely in favor of better starter options.
❌ Trash Tier (F-Tier)
Just… don’t! take it out as soon as possible and avoide it (if it’s given at the start of the game, doesn’t mean it is good or needed)
🥊 Combat
The moment you get access to any other style, switch. It has no AoE, poor damage, and doesn’t scale with upgrades.
Overall community opinion: It’s literally a placeholder. No real moves, no scaling—just basic punches.

If you’re aiming for dominance in PvP or elite raid performance, investing in Dragon Talon, Electric Claw, or Death Step is a no-brainer.
