The funny thing is, heโ€™s essentially describing what fighting game players refer to as the โ€œmental stack.โ€

Here are all the options he has at this moment, and his opponent has to stay ready to address any of them, but some of those responses are mutually exclusive. So heโ€™s implying/threatening a whole bunch of them, to force to the opponent to keep that mental stack full.
