Other Abbreviations
j. - Jump/jumping - Press up-back/up/up-forward.
sj. - Small jump - Tap up-back/up/up-forward.
cl. - Close
cr. - Crouch
st. - Stand
bb. - Backdash
Basic Mechanics
Forward Dash - f, f
- Jumping during a forward dash allows for greater distance
Backward Dash - b, b
- Good for dodging normals and specific specials (I.E. Certain projectiles with less range)
Small Jump - ub/u/uf (Tap once, don't hold)
Block - b (Hold)
- Blocking prevents knockdowns and damage from normals and you take much less damage without knockdown from specials and DM/SDM.
- Standing block can be used against standing and jumping attacks.
- A note on blocking: When you block an attack in this game, you do not have to keep holding the stick back. The game has a semi-auto block where once the first hit is blocked, you can release it and allow your character to continue the block with the joystick in neutral. This makes Break Shots much easier to perform due to not needing to constantly hold back while blocking.
Crouch Block - db (Hold)
- This will block any low attacks. Standing and jumping attacks will still hit you, learn to mix block and low block up depending upon the situation for the best results in your defensive game.
Air Block - b (Must be mid-air)
- Blocks attacks while in the air.
- Best used when jumping in on someone who uses a lot of aerial attacks or attacks that hit high.
Crawl - df (Hold)
- Also called Duck Walking or DW
- It's useful for remaining in a crouching position to charge up some [d]u attacks like Terry's Rising Tackle, or to do some zoning while anticipating a low attack.
Mid-Air Turn - While jumping, press d
- Turns character around in the air
- Very useful for quickly turning around while jumping over your opponents in order to go into an attack or to perform a mid-air special.
Feint
- Fake-out moves that start up as though the character is about to go into a special/DM/SDM move, but ends it prematurely. * These are usually used during chain combo's to cancel part of the animation and then quickly go into another attack to continue the combo with another chain. This will allow you to do some very advanced combos not normally possible. These are also used to recover quicker from normals and then continue into another normal or something else.
Evasion Attack - Press A and B together
- This will evade an attack for a split second while you attack the opponent.
Grapple/Throw - Press f or b and C when you are very close to your opponent
- Certain characters also have air throws, so make sure you check the command list of who you're playing to be sure.
Safe Fall - Press d during your own knockdown, before hitting the ground, to recover quickly
- Does not work if thrown or hit with a DM/SDM
Pursue Attacks
- Attacks used to hit someone while they are on the ground. All the more reason to use Safe Fall religiously.
- Specific characters have these.
Life Shift Recovery - Hit u + d as you hit the ground to roll onto the back line
- You need to have H Power or higher to do it.
Taunt - C + D
- These are more effective as a mind game against human opponents.
Break Shot
- Sometimes referred to as "Guard Cancel", certain special and Desperation Moves can be done while blocking and break your opponent's attack.
- H Power or higher is required as it drains your gauge by one bar. Obviously for DM Breakshot, you need S Power or higher.
Planes
Two characters cannot be on the back plane at the same time.
Switch to back plane - D
Low Attack - B From back plane
Overhead Attack - A From back plane
Strong Attack - C From back plane
Switch to front plane - D From back plane
Roll to front plane - d
High plane attack - D when opponent is in back plane.
- Overheard, will pull the opponent to the front plane if connected
Low plane attack - d + D when opponent is on back plane.
- Must be blocked low, will pull the opponent to the front plane if connected
When both characters are in opposing planes
Front Plane Character cannot duckwalk.
Back Plane Character:
- Cannot perform special moves unless specified.
- Cannot perform DMs/SDMs.
- Cannot crouch. It will however show the crouch block animation when crouch blocking.
- Cannot Duckwalk.
- Cannot jump.
- Dashing forward or backward will switch you automatically to the front plane.
- Standing still for two seconds will automatically switch you to the front plane.
- Holding u will keep you in the back plane.
Walking b or f will allow you to stay in the back plane.
Power Gauge and Desperation Moves
Power Gauge
- This meter will fill up when you use your special moves, connect (not blocked) any attack, or block an incoming attack. There are three levels of the Power Gauage, each having different effects to them.
H. Power
- This is when half of the power gauge is filled.
- You're capable of doing Break Shots when you have H. Power, and you're more likely to have H. Power most of the time than the other two levels of the gauge. Often times, it can be better to just go for a Break Shot than use up everything on one DM/SDM.
- Break Shot will lower the power gauge back down to zero.
S. Power
- When your gauge is filled up, it will become S. Power. This gauge will decrease over time.
- With it, you are able to use your Desperation Moves.
- When you use a Desperation Move, your gauge will go back down to nothing once again.
- If your life bar is flashing red, you will be able to use S. Power DM an unlimited amount of time as long as your life remains critical.
P. Power
- When your life turns red, the gauge will then become P. Power when filled up all the way.
- Like S. Power, it will also decrease over time.
- Allows you to use your Super Desperation Moves. Once an SDM is activated, the bar completely goes back down to zero.
- Remember: As long as your life is flashing red, your gauge will always build back up to P. Power after H. Power.
Chain Combos
Each character is capable of chaining specific basic attacks into Chain Combos. They differ from character to character, but each do decent enough damage on their own. The best thing about these, is you can follow them up with a special/DM that will do much more damage than without them. You can also knock your opponent into the background with some of these, allowing for more damaging combos. It's best to learn how to do your character's chain combos, and then try and turn them into flashier, longer combos.
Characters
Tiers
These are rather disputed, and I'll be citing sources as to where these different lists have come from. Bear in mind, this game is extremely balanced and there is no one character that dominates all 100% of the time, even during high-end Japanese tournaments. Any character in this game is a viable option, and at most you might have to try a little harder in certain matchups but you won't be seeing anyone winning because of <Insert character here>.
