Command Moves

• Cancelable.

Special Moves

Burning Knuckles: qcb + A/C

• a dash punch. A version goes a short distance and C version goes full screen.

• A version is a good pressure tool as it's safe when properly spaced out, works as a preemptive anti air to catch jumpouts and has a good hitbox to catch pokes.

• Can be low profiled and then punished by some moves.

Power Wave: qcf + A/C

• a grounded projectile. A version travels slower than the C version.
