* st.
is a good normal that can sometimes be used as an anti-air, depending on the distance of the opponent.

is chain-able and his best ground poke.
*
is a moderately good anti-air if used early enough, it can canceled but only before her arm extends into the air
*
is a great trip primarily because it can be canceled into his

move, so even if the opponent blocks the trip, Geese can go straight into a Reppuken, or a reversal move.
Jumping*
hits twice, and can be used to start a combo if done deep enough in the jump.

Guard Cancel Tag Attack* Pressing the
button while blocking will allow Geese to do counter with a standing

ThrowKatate Nage -

/
*Can be broken. Regular knockdown. This throw tosses the opponent quite some distance, allowing for zoning tactics to get put back into play. This move is great for throwing opponents in the corner from the center of the screen.
Command MovesKourin Hazaki -
+
* Geese does an arm smash attack. This move can be linked from a close standing attack, and will also knock down.
Special Moves Reppuken:
+
* Geese throws a projectile that rides the ground. It's rather slow, but can be used to put pressure on the opponent.
Double Reppuken:
+
* Geese throws two reppukens together to form a bigger projectile that rides the ground. This projectile moves fast. Also note that if the opponent is close to Geese, this move hits twice.
Shippuken:
+
/
in air
* This is Geese's air projectile. The button strength determines the angle of the projectile, and the speed. There is a slight delay when Geese does this move.
Atemi Nage (Gedan):
+
* Geese's high counter.
Atemi Nage (Joudan):
+
* Geese's mid counter.
Atemi Nage (Chuudan):
+
* Geese's low counter.
Jaei Ken: charge

+
/
* Geese dashes towards the opponent and does a series of attacks that ends in a palm strike. The button strength determines the distance, and the delay. Using
instead of
leaves Geese rather safe. This move cannot be used directly in a combo.
Raimei Gouha Nage:
+
(on downed opponent)
* This is Geese's down attack. It only works on a few moves, as most attacks that land either do not knockdown, or if they do knockdown, the opponent can tech roll. Use this move if the opponent forgets to tech roll. Be careful, however, as the recovery for this move is not fast. Here are the moves that can "guarantee" a

if the opponent does not tech:

** charge

Shinkuu Nage: 360 +

* Geese's command throw. This move tosses the opponent behind Geese and across the screen. This move is good for corner trapping.
Desperation MovesRaging Storm:

* This is Geese's classic super. He crouches down and throws both hands to the ground, causing a geyser of energy to shoot up and around him. This super stops projectiles, but is not recommended to use for that purpose. It is possible to cancel a strong attack with this move, but doing so pushes Geese back just enough for this super to whiff sometimes. Pressing
+
together does a stronger version, but costs 2 stocks instead of 1. This super can be done after his
+
.
Rashoumon: 720 +
* This is the super version of Geese's command throw. This move can be done with an empty jump, or from doing a GCFS/JDFS, but the timing is rather strict.

* Geese's "ranbu" super costs 3 stocks, and does take time to learn. This super can be used in a combo, and can also be used to extend a combo. In order to extend the combo, this super has to be stopped at the 1st
attack. There are other points in which this move can be stopped at to extend a combo and will be added soon.
