Veiled Menace Style (TCG)

Veiled Menace Style was a Rank 3 Close Combat kata which taught that assassination and other clandestine tactics were frowned upon by many samurai. The etiquette of battle allowed that a warrior who had made a proper entrance need not repeat their introduction to every foe they meet, and some took this as permission to use misdirection for ambushes and secret strikes. By drawing their enemy's gaze away from the true threat or striking from an unexpected angle, a bushi could often tip the scales against a better warrior and win a victory that would have been impossible otherwise.
