Sure it means something. Knowing the context of the line, I interpret it as "=
he used an individual fighting technique." With other context, it could be m=
ore like "he used individual techniques in succession."
{ngIq} always means something like "individual" or "specific" or maybe "sepa=
rate", with the idea of sequence being appropriate in the translation if the=
re are multiple things under consideration.
