############################# General Info #############################
##########################################################################
Regular Moves:
Basic punches and kicks. They are quick but don't cause much damage.
Special Moves:
Unique moves which can be performed at any time during the fight. They
cause more damage than regular moves, but require specific joystick and
button combinations.
Transition Moves:
Special moves which start then immediately switch to another special move
in the middle. Transition moves are useful for confusing opponents.
Basic Combos:
Combos are several moves strung together which are unblockable after the
first hit. After you perform a combo, the announcer will yell out what
type of combo it was. The names of the combos (with the number of hits)
are as follows; Triple(3), Super(4), Hyper(5), Brutal(6), Master(7),
Awesome(8), Blaster(9), Monster(10), King(11), Killer(12+).
Ultra Combo:
A special type of combo which can only be activated by a certain joystick
and button combination after you have strung together at least 2 hits.
Hit the opponent twenty times. Can only be performed when the opponent's
energy bar is flashing red.
Ultimate Combo:
A special type of combo which can only be activated by a certain joystick
and button combination after you have strung together at least 2 hits.
The combo ends with a No Mercy move. Can only be performed when the
opponent's energy bar is flashing red.
Combo Breaker:
Special moves which are used to stop combos. They must be performed
between hits in a combo. After you do a combo breaker, the line on
your
energy bar will start flashing. You do not need to charge Combo Breaker
moves. When using combo breakers, specific buttons must be used to
break
other buttons. 1/4 breaks 2/5, 2/5 breaks 3/6, and 3/6 breaks 1/4.
Retaliation Moves:
Special moves which can only be performed while you are getting up after
falling. These moves often catch the opponent offguard and can be used
to
defend against any unblockable moves opponents may use while you are
getting up.
Flashing Line:
When the line on your energy bar is flashing, your character has special
abilities. Doing a combo breaker is one way to cause the line to start
flashing. Some characters need only to perform certain special moves
to
activate the flashing energy bar line. Sabrewulf's energy howl will
make
the line start flashing. Also, when Spinal absorbs a special move with
his absorb shield, it will cause the line on the energy bar to start
flashing. The flashing energy bar line is at the tip of your energy
bar.
Air Juggle:
After you perform a combo that knocks the opponent high into the air, you
can hit them as they are falling with an air juggle move. Only certain
special moves have the ability to juggle opponents, all other moves go
through them. Air juggle moves don't take off much energy but they
add
one extra hit to the combo.
Double and Triple Juggle:
Some characters do multiple air juggle moves when their energy bar line is
flashing. These multiple juggle moves will hit two or three times
depending on which character it is.
Shadow Moves:
When the line on your energy bar is flashing, you can perform special
moves which you could not normally perform. These special moves are
the
same as their counterparts except they either go faster, cause more
damage, or both. Some shadow moves can only be performed in combos.
If
you perform shadow moves too many times, the line on your energy bar will
stop flashing
No Mercy:
After defeating your opponent for the second time in a fight, you have the
chance to perform a No Mercy. A No Mercy is a move which kills your
opponent. A No Mercy may have a different outcome depending on what
character you performed it against.
Humiliation:
If you defeat your opponent for the second time in a fight without loosing
all the energy in your first energy bar, you will be able to perform a
Humiliation. A Humiliation is a move which humiliates the opponent
by
forcing them to dance to some very "weird" music.
Last Breath:
After being defeated for the second time in a fight, your character will
be dizzy. Rapidly shake the joystick left and right and press all the
buttons to 'speed up' the dizzy process. If you do this long enough
without your opponent hitting you or performing a finish move you, will
get up and fight with your last breath. You will be given just enough
energy so that if you block a special move, or get hit, you will die.
Awesome Victory:
Defeat your opponent then finish them with a No Mercy or Humiliation and
you will be rewarded with an Awesome Victory. You also get to see an
animated sequence after the fight.
Supreme Victory (Perfect):
Defeat your opponent without loosing all the energy in your first energy
bar and you will be rewarded with a Supreme Victory. You also get to
see
an animated sequence after the fight. If you do not loose any energy
at
all the announcer will say "Perfect".

############################### Tricks #################################
##########################################################################
Turbo Mode:
At the player selection screen, have both players hold 1+2+3+right
immediately after picking their character. Keep holding 1+2+3+right
until
the game starts. This will make the fight go super fast for one fight
only. You performed this trick correctly if you hear a "swoosh" sound.
High Scores Table:
During the demo mode, press up on one of joysticks to view the high
scores.
Change Character Color:
At the character selection screen, pressing up or down will change the
color of your character. You cannot choose the same color your opponent
chose.
Random Select Character:
At the character selection screen, hold up and press start. A random
character will be chosen for you.
Combo Breaker:
During the animated sequence before the fight, hold down+start on both
controllers. The effects of this trick are unknown during a 2 player
game. However, when playing one player, this trick will allow the
computer to perform shadow moves without doing a combo breaker. You
performed this trick correctly if you hear the announcer say "combo
breaker".
Stage and Music Select:
When you are at the character selection screen, holding up or down on the
joystick and pressing a button will choose either the stage or music from
a specific stage. If you are the first person to choose your character,
you get to choose the stage. If you are the second person to choose,
you
get to choose the music from a stage. The joystick direction and buttons
needed for each stage are listed below:

TJ COMBO
Midair Ultra Combo:
Play on any of the rooftop stages and make sure your opponent is in the
corner when they have just a little bit of energy left. Do the Double
Backfist (CF,B+1). Immediately perform the Ultra Combo after the Double
Backfist. The Double Backfist will knock the opponent off the roof
but TJ
Combo will start to do the ultra as they are falling. The opponent
will
mysteriously start flying upward and they will be spitting blood all over
the place while in midair.
**************************************************************************
FULGORE
Mini Fulgore:
When playing on the Desert Roof stage (U+6 or D+S), get the opponent into
the edge and perform this combo: B,F+6,B+5,B,QCB+4 and when Fulgore
appears on the other side of the opponent, he will be half his normal
size.
**************************************************************************
GLACIUS
Stuck together:
Play Glacius verses Glacius on any nonscrolling stage. Get both Glacius's
in the corner next to each other and have them do the Puddle Teleport at
the same time. They will both appear in the same place and they will
be
stuck together. You can get unstuck by jumping.
No Ultimate:
Perform the Ultimate Combo with 6 hits or more and when the opponent is
about to be engulfed by the puddle, they bounce away and remain dizzy.
it
still counts as an Ultimate Combo but the opponent doesn't die.
**************************************************************************
ORCHID
Frog No Mercy Glitch:
Perform the frog No Mercy (D,F,B,4), then hold up and tap any attack
button rapidly. Orchid will leap into the air and hit the frog.
The frog
will turn into the normal character except they will look all green and
distorted.
Stuff to do after the No Mercy Glitch:
1) CB,F+2 and Orchid will start her Ultra Combo.
2) Press 6 and Orchid will disappear then reappear.
3) Rooftop Stages: knock them off the roof with a special move.
**************************************************************************

Midair Morph Combo:
Perform a combo with Spinal then do the opponent morph move. Immediately
after pressing the button tap up and Spinal will perform the morph combo
while in midair. The actual motion is: D,D+_,U
Stay Morphed as your Opponent:
If you perform a specific Midair Morph Combo against certain players,
Spinal will stay morphed as the gray opponent after missing them with the
combo. Spinal will be able to perform all of the opponent's moves
(including finishing moves) while he is morphed. Spinal can block moves,
but if he gets hit or jumps he will morph back into Spinal. Also, when
you are morphed as your opponent, Spinal's name changes to the opponent's
name.
1) D,D+4,Up (vs. Jago)
2) D,D+1,Up (vs. Chief Thunder)
**************************************************************************
