Quick notes
- Build a motion in parts. For a quarter-circle attack, start from down, roll through the diagonal toward the opponent, then press the relevant attack button at the end.
- Hold before a charge release. Guile’s Sonic Boom holds back before moving forward with a punch; Flash Kick holds down before moving up with a kick.
- Reverse commands after crossing. Commands in the manual assume a fighter faces right.
FIELD NOTE
Reliable inputs on both sides of the screen are a better first goal than a long combo.
