Standard Guard: Simply hold down the guard button to assume this defensive stance. It's also important to vary your combos, so your opponent is less able to predict what attacks you'll use. It's very important to learn how to perform chains, as it gives your opponent's less oppurtunity to conter-attack. Oh, and like Smash Attacks, these can also be charged by holding down the Ki Blast button for several seconds.Ĭombo Attack: A combo is any attack that involves chaining together two or more normal attacks, forming one longer attack. For now, pressing the Ki Blast button by itself launches a projectile at your opponent - use it when far away, or between attacks to throw off your opponent. Ki Blast: The Ki Blast button is the gateway to a wide-range of special attacks, but we'll get to those later. Rush Attack: Rush attacks are fast, but weak attacks that are best used as the intro to a combo. However, if both players attempt a Smash Attack at the same time, the person who launched it second will reign victorious. In addition, most Smash attacks allow you to "Attack Through." What this means is that you'll continue to performn the maneuver, even if your opponent attacks you during the proced, but you'll still take damage like normal. But be careful, as it'll leave you vulnerable while charging. They can be charged by holding down the button to unleash an even more powerful move, which can pierce even a blocking opponent. Smash Attack: Smash attacks are slow, but strong attacks. To perform a shift move, hold the guard button, then tap either up or down (depending on whether you want to shift to the inside or outside) to dance around your opponent. Shift: You can evade attacks (and disorient opponents) by shifting around them.

If you're using the d-pad, hold it in either direction to move slow, or double-tap it (and hold) to move fast.Īltitude: Whenever you back away from the enemy at top-speed, you can adjust your altitude by pressing either up or down on the joystick or control-pad. If you're using the joystick, simply tilt it slightly to move slowly, or tilt it all the way to move at your top-speed.

As such, moving left and right will be your primary means of travel. Basic Movement: So although this is a 3D fighter, you'll still mostly be battling on a two-dimensional plain.
