Button Priority
Button priority in this game goes A > B > C > D.
For example:
- pressing B + C would have your character perform a C.
Because there are so many commands that are 2 or 3 buttons, the rules for determining what command you get is simple: The command that uses the highest priority button wins. Burst has highest priority if available.
Examples:
- Pressing A + B + D would execute a Furious Action (B+D) instead of an All Out Attack (A+B).
- Pressing A + B + C + D would execute a burst (A+C+D), or if no burst is available, then a throw (C+D).
Hitting Two Opponents at the Same Time
The same attack can hit two characters (the opponent and his persona) at the same time. The way it works is that
Super Freeze Buffer
During an opponent's super freeze (when they perform a super attack, the screen freezes briefly), you can input commands and they will be executed immediately after the super freeze ends. This means that provided you are not in the middle of an attack, it is trivially easy to react to an opponent's super attacks with an attack of your own.
Often this is buffer is used to execute an invincible attack that will hit the opponent out of their super!
