That’s a actual Martial Arts move, she’s Feinting, basically she’s making Daredevil expect a Kick to come but it doesnt, you can see him keep moving before she actually delivers, it’s meant to keep your opponent focused on what they think will happen and then do something else.
nah this is actually fire and anyone that says otherwise is lame. I haven’t even started the show yet either but i heard it’s lit
Right like it was a fake out. Seen plenty of delayed punch to chest push moves in martial arts movies 🤷🏾♂️
Wait people didn’t know this was an intentional delay??
That’s cool AF idk who looks at that and goes “nah this is ass”
Fans took toTwitterand commented on the delayed kick by Echo during the action scene, as they stated that it was intentional and not a fake move or a result of CGI of any kind. It is odd why people would think the kick was fake in the first place, as it has already been made evident Marvel takes fight sequences very seriously and tends not to mess them up – especially when Daredevil is involved.
