I don't get what's so special about 18 Dragons. Can anyone provide feats?

I'd also like to know. Google isn't giving me much to work with in regards to what this martial art is supposed to do.
"Jin Yong's Condor Trilogy (a series of wuxia novels)" from the description he gave.
Also, you need to put an @ before the person's name to tag them, like so. Oh @Emperor Toast, we have questions!
I mean, Kyotoryu, from the gifs and videos posted, has been seen to liquify someone in armor, allow the user to survive being shot at least a dozen times, and destroy a citadel.I'd also like to know. Google isn't giving me much to work with in regards to what this martial art is supposed to do.
...Sounds incredibly vague.As per the title it focuses on palm strikes amplified with chi creating destructive blasts of energy, shattering defenses and terrain alike. In various media formats it does everything from shooting chi dragons to blowing up massive amounts of terrain to doing energy nova blasts to striking and killing a hundred enemies at once.
Somehow, it reminds me of how Goku and Mutenroshi's Turtle School... is pretty much well known only for the Kamehameha.

It's just one move, but Goku had lots of mileage on it.
Not sure if it's the best example though.
Basically think Ki piledriver attacks for the most part. It's mostly attacks, rushes, blasts and the like in depictions. Not much defense or counters, just rampage all over the enemy.I mean, Kyotoryu, from the gifs and videos posted, has been seen to liquify someone in armor, allow the user to survive being shot at least a dozen times, and destroy a citadel.

"Abuse your giantic Campione-tier energy reserves", The Style.For when you want to beat the shit out of someone using your internal reserves.

Campiones have a shitton of internal energy, and a body to contain that."Abuse your giantic Campione-tier energy reserves", The Style.
Heretic Gods aren't lego - you can't just explosively jam pieces of divinity into them and expect the bloodied, now-with-a-fist-sized-hole-in-the-chest result not to explode while screaming in pain as alien energies ravage their body.Except... if you use Divinity and then stuff it into a small part of a Heretic God... it might not work as well as intended.
Sticking Ki into them, then?

Yes, I did. Not sure what to choose for that.
I'd say it probably depends on the Heretic God due to the various affinities.Heretic Gods aren't lego-constructor, you can't just explosively jam pieces of divinity into them and expect the bloodied, now-with-a-fist-sized-hole-in-the-chest result not to explode while screaming in pain as alien energies ravage their body.
Granted, I am not sure if Madara has a separate divinity pool aside from his divinely-reinforced chakra-pool.

Also, this. I mean, just imagine filling out the information for all the moves and sub-moves we'll develop.....Also, not gonna lie, filling out appropriate techniques for this and then accounting for how to use them in-story sounds kinda unfun. If it wins I hope Toast can handle it gracefully, instead of it becoming busywork.
The reason with why I went with Kyoutoryu was the simplicity of it.Also, this. I mean, just imagine filling out the information for all the moves and sub-moves we'll develop.

The sheer simplicity of making your unarmed attacks into bladed equivalents of it, anyway.
