SPECIAL MOVES

Torpedo
BBF
(can be performed while airborne)

Shocker
DF1

Teleport
DU

Electricity
Hold down HIGH PUNCH for 2 secs


FATALITY #1 (Electrocution)

* Distance: NEAR

Hold down LOW KICK for 3 secs and release, then tap BLOCK + LOW KICK repeatedly

** The Low Kick can be held down long before "FINISH HIM/HER!". Keeping it held down, you can also perform other moves. Once you are cued to "FINISH HIM/HER!", close in on your opponent, and then release the Low Kick.

*** Another method is to focus on Low Kicking your opponent near the end, keeping the Low Kick depressed for 3 secs, then releasing when near opponent.


FATALITY #2 (Explosive Uppercut)

* Distance: NEAR

Hold down HIGH PUNCH for 8 secs

** The High Punch can be held down long before "FINISH HIM/HER!". Keeping it held down, you can also perform other moves. Once you are cued to "FINISH HIM/HER!", close in on your opponent, and then release the High Punch.


STAGE FATALITY (Ceiling Spikes & Bridge Drop)

* Distance: NEAR

Hold down BLOCK, press UUU, release BLOCK and then HIGH PUNCH


STAGE FATALITY BONUS (Sliding off Ceiling Spikes)
Same for ALL KHARACTERS!

After performing the Ceiling Spikes kombo, immediately follow-up by holding the DOWN button on BOTH Player 1's and Player 2's controls at the same time for a few seconds.


STAGE FATALITY (Dead Pool)
Same for ALL KHARACTERS!

* Distance: NEAR

Hold D + HIGH PUNCH once, then LOW PUNCH + LOW KICK together

** This one is tricky. Basically, you can hold Down all the way through this kombo. After pressing High Punch once to uppercut, and BEFORE the uppercut visually kompletes on screen, in that split second of a window press the Low Punch + Low Kick together, and then let go all key presses.

*** "Oh Ma!" Special: After successfully executing fatality, let go all key presses EXCEPT DOWN. Just keep holding DOWN alone to hear Dan Forden say "Oh Ma!" while as a floating skeleton.


BABALITY

* For Babality to work, you must NOT use a single punch during the winning round.

Hold down BLOCK, then press DDU4


FRIENDSHIP

* For Friendship to work, you must NOT use a single punch during the winning round.

** Distance: HALF SCREEN AWAY

SHORTHAND

F = Forward
B = Back
U = Up/Jump
D = Down/Crouch

1 = Low Punch
2 = High Punch
3 = Low Kick
4 = High Kick

Occasionally I will opt to spell out the movement, punch or kick to avoid konfusion. e.g. Low Kick instead of 3.
