What GURPS needs... now

That's what I felt too, in watching Critical Roll. It was very much:
Player: "I roll to attack with flurry of blows, I got a 17!" *rolls damage*
GM: "You ninja jump off the wall, roll in front of the guard, and give him a one-two-three punch to the nuts, chest, and finishing in an uppercut. He falls unconscious on the floor."
*wild applause from PCs*

This struck me as odd. I always like to ask what my players are doing and have them describe what they do. What the NPCs do is my court. But I would never dictate how an attack from a PC looked like, that's the players job.
What if, in the above scenario, the player thought they were going for an Ip Man rapid-fire punching sequence to the enemy's solar plexus till they collapsed? I'd be peeved if I was the above player in that group.
