Close
- cl. A: Cancellable, Can be chained into other light buttons. One of his fastest buttons. But whiffs against crouched.
- cl. B: Cancellable, Can't be chained into any button. Doesn't hit low despite its look.
- cl. C: Cancellable. Most preferred close button most of the time.
- cl. D: Cancellable. But has 8f of slow start up. Also has short active frame. Recommend using cl.C instead.
Stand
- st. A: Uncancellable. Fast and Basic st.A you can use for anti hop.
- st. B: Uncancellable. Has somewhat higher hitbox, but way slower than st.A.
- st. C: Uncancellable. Can be crouched. Ok preemptive anti hop.
- st. D: Uncancellable. A very long poke button.
Crouch
- cr. A: Cancellable, Can be chained into other light buttons. Quite good for a cr.A.
- cr. B: Cancellable, Can be chained into other light buttons. Your main button for footsie and combo.
- cr. C: Cancellable only on hit. A long poke. Since it is cancellable on hit, you can buffer specials or mainly super.
- cr. D: Cancellable. A very long sweep. Be sure to cancel into other stuffs.
Jump
- j. A: Uncancellable. Ok jump in.
- j. B: Uncancellable. Resembles Kyo's j.B. Works quite similar, but without crossup.

- nj. C: Uncancellable. Ok air to air.
- nj. D: Uncancellable. An instant overhead.
Blowback
- st. CD: Cancellable. Works similar to sweep due to its slow start up, but hits high. Not too much reason to use.
- j. CD: Cancellable. Quite decent air to air.
