There are three levels of charging for a Focus Attack. The levels depend on
how long you hold the Medium Punch and Medium Kick. Your character
will flash white each time the Focus Attack level increases.
When an opponent crumples, they are rendered totally defenseless as they fall to
the floor. Follow up with extra attacks or a throw to take advantage of a crumpled
opponent and do further damage.
You cannot move or jump during a Focus Attack, but you can perform either
a forward or backward dash to cancel the Focus Attack quickly.
Hitting your opponent or performing special moves will increase your Super
Combo Gauge. The gauge is divided into four segments and, when completely
full, a special command can be input to perform an all-powerful Super Combo.
Doing so will use up all of your Super Combo Gauge. (See P.34 onward for Super
Combo commands)
Input the Super Combo command while performing a normal move or special
move and you can cancel and move directly into the Super Combo. This is
called a "Super Cancel."
Using Super Cancels strategically allows you to chain a normal move into a
special move, and then into a Super Combo for massive amounts of damage.
You can also perform an EX special move by pressing two or more of the
required buttons (punch or kick) when inputting a special move command. This
will consume one segment of your Super Combo Gauge. EX special moves are
further powered up versions of your normal special moves.
