It is, but it’s rarely used that way, and, when it is, usually means some sort of, like, “brawl” with more than one person, often kind of chaotic. This move could be triggered, it looks like, with just a one-on-one fight, or in many other circumstances, as long as they’re in melee range.
Does that seem right? Or have I misunderstood how the move is meant to be triggered?
