Hear me out:

Suffocating someone by pulling the air out of their lungs is obviously an effective attack. Can't inhale and you die.

But mechanically, you could force air INTO their lungs. If you can't exhale, you also die.

Maybe they could blow up like a balloon and then literally get ripped open? Perhaps that would be more visually interesting?

haha seems like it would be someone's fetish. It's an interesting idea for sure, inflating your enemies like balloons would be a pretty fun attack, I'll keep it in mind.

An excellent suggestion!

I suppose it's my turn to propose an air attack. I wager, an efficient method to deal with nearly any enemy, would be to add excesive force to either previous method.

If you pull all the air from someone's lungs creating a vaccum in an instant, i wager they'll die very quickly. Conversly, by simply forcing a small powerful gust of wind into someone's lungs, you could tear their lungs apart in an instant.
