Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Knuckle Arrow: When the opponent is in a low position, the user must grab him by the hair with his non-dominant hand and lift him until his arm is straight. Next, the user must put the fist of their dominant hand close to their shoulder, this will appear as if the user is tensing a bow. Finally, the user have to launch the punch.
*Headbutt: The user of the technique must put the neck back, and then move it strongly forward, attacking his opponent face with a head or just causing their heads to collide.
*Backdrop: The user of the technique must crouch on the opponent's left side and grab him by the abdomen. Then the opponent must be lifted until he is on his shoulders. Finally, the user must jump back so that the opponent hits the head, neck and shoulders against the ground.
*Crotch Kick: Crotch Kick is a powerful blow from the Vale Tudo which is intended to damage man's most vulnerable and sensitive vital organ: the testicles.
*Dropkick: It is defined as an attack where the wrestler jumps up and kicks the opponent with the soles of both feet.
*Shikiri Stance: The Shikiri is a preparation stance before an attack of sumo wrestler. Usually after a while there is a quick rush towards the enemy. This position always heralds an oncoming attack. Also, during that stance the wrestler tries to gain a psychological advantage by intense staring at his opponent.
*Arm Breaker: At first, the user grabs one of the opponent's arm over their shoulder with one or both of their arms. With all of their strength, the user then quickly breaks/snaps the opponent's arm.
Weaknesses: Assumes that his opponent has his build, which can lead his smaller enemies to escape from his holds easily. His endurance relies on his ability to "ready" himself to take an incoming blow, and thus will take significantly more damage if he is unable to react to an attack.
