Many special moves are in the form of attacks and most will cause a small amount of damage to opponents even when blocked. COMBO: A combo is a series of attacks which are unblockable after the first hit. Combos consisting of three or more hits have names associated with them. The names are as follows: Three Hits: Triple Eight Hits: Awesome Four Hits: Super Nine Hits: Blaster Five Hits: Hyper Ten Hits: Monster Six Hits: Brutal Eleven Hits: King Seven Hits: Master Twelve+ Hits: Killer COMBO STARTER: A combo starter is any attack which can be used to start combos on grounded opponents. All combo starters listed in this guide also have at least one auto-linker which can link from them. LINKER: A linker is a multi-hit attack which can only be used during a combo, anytime after either the second or third hit, and which has at least one auto-linker that can link from it. Every character has one linker except Cinder, who has two, and Eyedol, who has none. AUTO-LINKER: Auto-linkers are multi-hit attacks which can only be used during combos after certain linkers or combo starters. Every character has six auto-linkers, each of which requiring a different button input. COMBO ENDER: A combo ender is a single or multi-hit attack used during a combo to knock the opponent down and end the combo. Most combo enders are usable anytime after the second hit in a combo, although some are only usable after the third hit. Many combo enders also launch opponents high into the air making it possible to use juggle moves for additional hits. If you perform combo enders using button releases rather than button presses, the attack sequences will be faster and harder to interrupt. Also, if you are powered up while doing these, your characters will leave behind shadow trails. Most special moves that knock down opponents can be used as single-hit combo enders. However, single-hit combo enders are omitted from the combo ender sections in this guide unless they launch. JUGGLE: A juggle is an attack which is only usable after combo enders, before opponents hit the ground, which adds one or more hits to the combos. Not all combo enders allow time for a juggle to be used, however. MIDAIR COMBO: A midair combo is a two-hit combo which can only be done while both players are in midair. The combo consists of a jumping attack that hits while your opponent is also jumping, followed by a special midair attack before they hit the ground. All characters except Eyedol have a midair combo. COMBO BREAKER: Combo breakers are attacks that interrupt your opponent's combos and power up your character. They can be used to interrupt linkers, auto-linkers, combo enders, and any moves consisting of at least three hits. Combo enders composed of only one hit cannot be interrupted. Successfully breaking an opponent's combo can be difficult. This is because combo breakers can only be used between or at the same time as certain hits in a combo. Furthermore, the button used to perform the combo breaker changes depending on the combo move your opponent uses. As a general rule, combo breakers using a quick attack will break combos moves using a medium attack, combo breakers using a medium attack will break combo moves using a fierce attack, and combo breakers using a fierce attack will break combo moves using a quick attack. However, there are some combo moves which break this rule. FINISHING MOVE: A finishing move is used to end a fight with an impressive display and usually involves brutally killing the other character. There are several kinds of finishing moves including standard or stage fatalities, humiliations, ultras, and ultimates. All of these except ultras and ultimates are only usable when opponents are out of life on their second life bars. HUMILIATION: A humiliation is a finishing move which, instead of killing your opponent, humiliates them by forcing them to dance to disco music. Humiliations are only usable when opponents are out of life on their second life bar and you still have life remaining on your first. ULTRA: An ultra is a finishing move which can only be used during combos, anytime after the second hit, when your opponent's second life bar is below twenty- five percent. Ultras add eighteen additional hits to your combos, depleting any remaining life. ULTIMATE: Similar to an ultra, an ultimate is a finishing move which is only usable during combos, anytime after the second hit, when your opponent's second life bar is below twenty-five percent. An ultimate adds a fatal finishing move to your combo. ================================================================================ ==================== ===================== = 3A =============== G U I D E C O N V E N T I O N S ===================== ==================== ===================== ================================================================================ In order to provide detailed information about the gameplay mechanics, this guide uses a fairly lengthy notation system. The guide, therefore, looks quite different from other guides and will probably take some time to decipher, especially if you are not already familiar with the game. Please take time to read over this section if you don't want to be overly confused. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3B - N O T A T I O N -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DIRECTIONAL INPUT: Tapping joystick directions: f = Forward uf = Up-forward b = Back ub = Up-back u = Up df = Down-forward d = Down db = Down-back Holding joystick directions (at least 1 second): F = Hold forward (UF/DF can usually be used in place of F) B = Hold back (UB/DB can usually be used in place of B) DB = Hold down-back Rolling the joystick: QC = Quarter-circle HC = Half-circle QCf = d,df,f QCdf = db,d,df HCf = b,db,d,df,f QCb = d,db,b QCdb = df,d,db HCb = f,df,d,db,b ................................................................................

The top section details special moves and finishing moves, and the bottom section details combo-related moves. MOVE LAYOUT: Moves are listed using a three-column layout. The left column describes the move, the middle column lists the input needed to do the move, and the right column lists additional information about the move. Left column: The left column provides a descriptive name for a move or simply lists the number of hits. In the combo section, the left column may also include an uppercase letter to use as a reference for other moves. If the left column is blank in a row, this usually means that the move is visually identical to the closest named move above it. Middle column: The middle column lists the input sequence needed to perform a move. If the middle column is indented, this means that the move can only be done after inputting another move, but before the other move finishes its animation. An indented move can be done after the first non-indented move above it and any consecutive non-indented moves, as long as they share the same name. Right column: The right column provides more information about a move such as its special properties, requirements, restrictions, or distinguishing characteristics. Any information listed in the right column only relates to the row it appears in. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3D - E X A M P L E S -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overhead Attack WC+(b/db+3) To do an overhead attack, while your opponent is crouching, press back or down-back and, while still holding back or down-back and your opponent is still crouching, press fierce high attack. The main use for overhead attacks is to hit opponents using crouching block. ................................................................................ Shield Block b+#1 Blocks Most Special Moves, +1 Skull For Each To do Spinal's shield block simply hold quick high attack while pressing back. Spinal will raise his shield until he is hit or until you stop holding quick high attack. The shield will block most special moves and, for each one blocked, Spinal gains one orbiting skull. ................................................................................ Air Torpedo WJ+(f,f,3/:3) Long Range b+3 Transition To 1: WJ+(f,f,1/:1) 1: Short Range, Moves Downward WJ+(f,f,2/:2) Medium Range, Moves Downward There are three types of air torpedoes that Cinder can do. The first type travels long range and can be done by jumping in the air then tapping forward twice and, while still in midair, pressing or releasing fierce high attack. The second type travels short range and moves downward. It is done by jumping in the air then tapping forward twice and, while still in midair, pressing or releasing quick high attack. The third type travels medium range and also moves downward. It is done by jumping in the air then tapping forward twice and, while still in midair, pressing or releasing medium high attack. While the long range air torpedo is flying through the air, if you press fierce high attack while pressing back it will immediately become the short range air torpedo. It inherits all properties of his regular short range air torpedo including the ability to start combos. ................................................................................ Dash Punch b/db,f+:3 Knockdown B,f+3 Knockdown B[2],f+3/:3 f,b+3 Cancels Dash f,b+2 [!A] Rolling Punch, Single Roll f,b+1 Transition To 1: f,b+6 Transition To 3: WP+(b/db,f+:3) [!AB] Fast, Knockdown, Shadow, -1 Power There are four types of dash punches that Combo can do. The first type is done by tapping back or down-back, then pressing forward and, while still holding forward, releasing fierce high attack. This type will knock the opponent down if it hits. The second type is done by holding back, up-back, or down-back for at least one second, then pressing forward and, while still holding forward, pressing fierce high attack. The second type also knocks the opponent down if it hits. To do the third type you must hold back, up-back, or down-back for at least two seconds, then press forward, and while still holding forward, press or release fierce high attack. This type will not knock the opponent down if it hits. The fourth type requires that you are powered up to at least level one. Once you are, tap back or down-back, then press forward and, while still holding forward, release fierce high attack. This type is completely immune to "A" or "B" moves and will pass right through them. It also travels much faster than the other types, knocks the opponent down if it hits, leaves a shadow trail, and using it will reduce your power level by one. There are several transitions that can be done while Combo is dashing forward during the first three types. The transitions do not work while dashing forward during the fourth type. While Combo is dashing, if you tap forward, then back, and, while still holding back, press fierce high attack, he will stop dashing. While Combo is dashing, if you tap forward, then back, and, while still holding back, press medium high attack, he will do his single roll rolling punch which is immune to "A" moves. However, this rolling punch is not identical to his regular rolling punch because it cannot be used to start combos. While Combo is dashing, if you tap forward, then back, and, while still holding back, press quick high attack, he will do his double fist designated by the "2:". It inherits all properties of his regular double fist including the ability to start combos. Finally, while Combo is dashing, if you tap forward, then back, and, while still holding back, press fierce low attack, he will do his flying knee designated by the "3:". Again, it inherits all of the regular properties including the ability to start combos. ================================================================================ =========================== ============================ = 4A ====================== C H A R A C T E R S ============================ =========================== ============================ ================================================================================ UNIVERSAL MOVES: Standing Block B Blocks Mid Or High Attacks Crouching Block DB Blocks Mid Or Low Attacks Overhead Attack WC+(b/db+3) Overhead Fake WC+(b/db+2) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4B - C I N D E R -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SPECIAL MOVES: Leg Sweep d/df/db+6 [!AB] Knockdown Fist Flare b,b,1/:1 [B] Flamethrower (f,f,)/(B,f+)4 [A] Short Range (f,f,)/(B,f+):4 [A] Short Range, Fast (f,f,)/(B,f+)5/:5 [B] Medium Range (f,f,)/(B,f+)6/:6 [A] Long Range Flame Torpedo (f,f,)/(B,f+)1/:1 Short Range (f,f,)/(B,f+)2/:2 Medium Range f,f,3/:3 No Range Limit, Knockdown B,f+3/:3 No Range Limit Air Torpedo WJ+(f,f,3/:3) Long Range b+3 Transition To 1: WJ+(f,f,1/:1) 1: Short Range, Moves Downward WJ+(f,f,2/:2) Medium Range, Moves Downward Flip Kick f,d,df+4/:4 [!AB] Knockdown, Low-Rise f,d,df+5/:5 [!AB] Knockdown, Mid-Rise f,d,df+6/:6 [!AB] Knockdown, High-Rise WS+(f,d,df+4) [!AB] Knockdown, Low-Rise WS+(f,d,df+5) [!AB] Knockdown, Mid-Rise WS+(f,d,df+6) [!AB] Knockdown, High-Rise WS+(b,d,db+4) [!AB] Knockdown, Low-Rise WS+(b,d,db+5) [!AB] Knockdown, Mid-Rise WS+(b,d,db+6) [!AB] Knockdown, High-Rise Shadowform HCb+:1/2/:2 [!AB] Ends Invisibility, Ends If Hit HCb+:1/2/:2 Ends Shadowform Invisibility HCb+3/:3 Ends Shadowform, Ends If Hit HCb+3/:3 Ends Invisibility Invis.

DISPLAY HIGH SCORES:

  During attract mode, press up to display the high scores. The scores include
  fastest wins, longest winning streaks, most points scored in a fight, and
  longest combos for each character.


SELECT CHARACTER COLORS:

  At the character selection screen, tap up or down to change the color of your
  character. Each character has six colors to choose from. However, if both 
  players select the same character, they cannot choose the same color.


RANDOMLY SELECT CHARACTER:

  At the character selection screen, press your start button while holding up
  and your character will be randomly selected for you.


SELECT STAGE OR MUSIC:

  By using certain joystick and button combinations to select your character you
  can also select the stage or music for the fight. The first player to choose
  their character using one of these combinations selects the stage and the
  second player selects the music. The joystick and button combinations needed
  to select a stage or its music are as follows:

              Canyon Bridge: d+1             Snow Temple: u+1
               Bloody Arena: d+2           Skull Pillars: u+2
                Lava Bridge: d+3              Icy Statue: u+3
                City Street: d+4          Castle Rooftop: u+4
            Castle Interior: d+5            City Rooftop: u+5
                    Factory: d+6          Desert Rooftop: (u+6)/(d+S)

  If both players press medium low attack while holding down to select their
  characters, they will select a special stage instead of the castle interior.
  This stage consists of a tiny platform in the sky with rapidly moving clouds.


EASY COMBO BREAKERS:

  At the versus screen, both players must press their start button while holding
  down. The announcer will say "COMBO BREAKER" and during the fight either
  player will be able to break combos using any of the three combo breaker
  buttons regardless of the buttons used to perform the combos.


HYPER FIGHTING:

  At the versus screen, both players, while holding right, must press their 
  quick, medium, and fierce high attack buttons simultaneously. A "SWOOSH" sound
  will play and the gameplay speed will be increased dramatically when the fight
  starts.


PLAY AS EYEDOL:

  At the character selection screen, choose Cinder as your character. Then, at
  the versus screen, while holding right, quickly tap the following buttons in
  order: quick high attack, quick low attack, fierce high attack, medium low
  attack, medium high attack, fierce low attack. The announcer will say "EYEDOL"
  and you will be playing as Eyedol when the fight starts.

  This section explains how to perform and the effects of some of the more
  amusing glitches found in the game. Because many are fixed in 1.5d, some
  glitches from 1.4 have been included. 

  Each glitch is listed under the heading of the highest game version that it
  appears in. However, they probably work the same in earlier versions. Also,
  there may be alternate methods for triggering some glitches but they are
  omitted from this guide.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  6B -  1 . 4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FULGORE: SHRINK

  Fulgore can shrink a character to approximately half of their normal size.
  This glitch can only be used to shrink player one's character, however. For
  example, if you trigger the glitch as player one, your character will shrink,
  but if you trigger it as player two, your opponent's character will shrink.

  For it to work, you must be playing as Fulgore on one of the three rooftop
  stages. Also, your opponent must be backed to the rooftop edge. After that,
  simply perform Fulgore's blade dash using fierce low attack, making sure to
  hit your opponent, then immediately perform Fulgore's teleport using quick low
  attack. You will know it worked if either you or your opponent have shrunk
  after Fulgore reappears.


GLACIUS: SHRINK

  Glacius can also shrink players, similar to Fulgore. Unfortunately, it is more
  difficult to do Glacius's version of the glitch. To do it, you must be playing
  as Glacius on one of the rooftop stages and your opponent must be backed into
  a corner (not an edge). Then, simply perform Glacius's teleport with quick low
  attack. If your opponent was positioned correctly, player one's character will
  be half of their normal size after Glacius reappears. 

  The exact positioning needed for this glitch to work is difficult to describe.
  However, here is a guaranteed, although impractical, way of correctly placing
  the characters. For this to work, player two's character should not move
  unless explicitly stated. First, choose Glacius as player one's character, and
  when the fight starts, have him perform a puddle punch using fierce low
  attack. After his opponent stands up, have them jump back once. Next, have
  Glacius teleport behind them and perform another puddle punch using fierce low
  attack. This knocks Glacius's opponent back towards the middle of the roof.
  After they recover, have them walk backwards until they are in the corner.
  Now, Glacius's opponent should be positioned in a way so that if Glacius
  teleports behind them, he will shrink.


ORCHID: FROG ABUSE

  This is a simple glitch that allows Orchid to beat up her opponent for a few
  seconds after turning them into a frog with her finishing move. Normally, when
  not using the glitch, Orchid's only options are to squash them or do nothing
  at all.

  To do it, when your opponent is out of life, perform the first part of
  Orchid's frog finishing move then hold up on the joystick. After a few seconds
  she will jump into the air and thereafter will be able to move or attack
  normally. There will only be a few seconds to do anything, but if she hits the
  frog, the opponent will revert back to their normal form with an abnormal
  greenish color.


SPINAL: UNLIMITED SKULLS

  It is possible to trick the game into thinking that Spinal has an unlimited
  supply of orbiting skulls. The main benefit, of course, is that it allows
  Spinal to endlessly throw flaming skulls or fireballs. The glitch also makes
  it possible for Spinal to do 80-hit combos if he uses it to repeatedly juggle
  his opponent.

  To trigger this glitch, you must be playing as Spinal and he needs to have
  exactly one orbiting skull. Once he does, while holding quick high attack,
  roll the joystick in a quarter-circle forward motion, and, while still holding
  forward, press medium high attack then immediately release quick high attack.
  You will know it worked if Spinal throws two flaming skulls.

  At this point, Spinal may throw any number of flaming skulls or fireballs.
  However, do not absorb any special attacks with his shield block move or he
  will overload and his orbiting skulls will reset to zero.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  6C -  1 . 5 D
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPINAL: MIDAIR MORPHS

  Immediately after inputting one of Spinal's morph combo enders, if you tap up,
  he will jump into the air before morphing. Doing this can result in some
  entertaining combos, such as when the morph ender partially or completely
  misses the opponent.


SPINAL: STAY MORPHED AS JAGO/THUNDER

  Spinal can stay permanently morphed as his opponent's character, either Jago
  or Thunder, if he misses them with certain morph combo enders. While morphed,
  Spinal becomes the character and can do most of their moves or combos,
  including finishing moves. However, if he is hit, jumps, or uses any moves
  which cause him to leave the ground, Spinal will return to his normal form. 

  To stay morphed as Jago, miss Jago with Spinal's d,d+4 or d,d+5 combo enders.
  To stay morphed as Thunder, miss Thunder with Spinal's d,d+1 combo ender. The
  easiest way to miss is to start a combo using manual hits while the opponent
  is barely within range. Then, when you initiate Spinal's morph combo ender,
  the opponent will be out of range, causing it to miss. For example, while
  standing about a player length away from his opponent, Spinal can do two
  medium high attacks followed by the required ender.
