"...attack should try to maneuvre in such a way that all 3 are on a line."
You know...this is just untested mythology. Training to align three or more people in a line as a major, go-to, multiple opponent strategy is just dojo...bullshit. This is the typical inexperienced, regurgatated, untested crap spit out in thoughtless people teaching classes.
Can you align three defenders rushing in on a running back a football game? How often does that happen on Saturday and Sunday.
The two major myths
a) fast fight and finish each one (while the other watch and wait?)
b) line the others up like puppets, so you can fast fight and finish each one while the fumbling, confused other two stumble around awaiting their turn to be fast fight and finished...in line
Why should “fast fighting” suddenly ALWAYS work in only multiple opponent encounters? When fast fighting doesn’t always work in one-on-one fights?
Don’t believe me? Get three friends, put some gear on and tell them to attack like three mad, bad guys. You’ll be bum rushed 8 out ot 10 times. You will be unable to line them up like puppets. No fast fighting two or three guys. No master puppet man manipulation of people in a line.
Now, multiple opponents have many situational and psychological aspects to each confrontation, but they are certainly not solved by training with enemies who wait their turn to be ass-whipped in slow motion or allow themsleves to be position into a line. In my DVD we show chaos examples of unplanned guys attacking one person. We show "get out of the room alive" scenarios. With mixed weapons. Stats show that 40% of the time we fight two or more people. And 40% of the time that enemy (in the USA) is armed with a knife or gun. No stats include sticks.
