I could show you a drill or two involving randomness too. One is hitting quadrants of a wall target randomly. The other is catching a bouncy ball that is irregularly shaped to increase hand speed. The difficulty of these is quite high because you don't know what is coming in advance- your brain can't "brace" against the outcome.

I think fencing is probably the martial art/martial sport with the fastest movement. Amazing how slow strength training and thinking creatively and differently has helped me with it.

Cheers!
