Tips and tricks
- Jumping is a commitment. Do it to escape or to surprise, never as a default movement.
- Spacing is a weapon. Stand just outside the opponent's reach and inside your own, and let them come to you.
- Punish, don't predict. Wait for a missed attack and hit the recovery — it is the safest damage in any fighting game.
- Watch the opponent's health bar. Players change behaviour when they are low, and the change is exploitable.
- Because this is a Action game, keep moving.
