You can change your combat style in Shindo Life by equipping a new combat art, also known as martial style.
While combat arts don’t give as many new powers as a bloodline or an element, for example, they do give a new Q-spec if it’s not overridden by your weapon.

Shindo Life Combat Arts Tier List
Combat art is another attribute of your character in Shindo Life, which affects how strong you are, as they change both your basic attacks and Q-spec attack when not wearing a weapon.
Even though they are not as important as bloodline or element, combat art can still be an important factor in your build late-game. It also changes the visual stance of your character.

To get a new combat art in Shindo Life, open the game, press ‘M’ to open the menu, click ‘[Martial]’ at the top, click the combat art you wish to purchase, and click ‘[UNLOCK]’.
Unlike elements, bloodlines, and kenjutsus, you do not have to spin for combat arts in Shindo Life. You can simply purchase the one you want.
Combat arts cost RELL Coins to unlock, but some combat arts also require you to have the combat art scroll boss drop before you can unlock it.
After you’ve unlocked a new combat art, you can use it by clicking ‘[EQUIP]’ in the same menu where you bought it.
You can freely switch between the combat arts you’ve unlocked at no cost.
That’s the tier list on what the strongest combat arts in Shindo Life are!
