Tips and tricks
- Pick one character and one simple combo and repeat it until it is automatic. Consistency wins far more than variety.
- Spacing is a weapon. Stand just outside the opponent's reach and inside your own, and let them come to you.
- Jumping is a commitment. Do it to escape or to surprise, never as a default movement.
- Rematch after a loss immediately. Fighting game skill is muscle memory, and it builds fastest while the previous round is still fresh.
