Slow escape = Mashing?

Just wiggle the stick is how I was taught. I prefer to hold block while I wiggle the stick but idk if it makes you escape any faster.

How many directional inputs are required? I think it use to be 8 for SC4.

Still don't understand the "Critical Burst" and "Power Blow" systems.

Go into Training and turn on your frames under "Fight Screen Info".

When you initiate a stun, in the frame data overlay you'll see something called "Critical Damage".

There should be a damage threshold, it may vary with the attack. You want to fill up that threshold before the opponent recovers from the stun. So, hit them, preferably with attacks that leave you with lots of frame advantage in stun.

You can't use the same move twice in a row, or you'll knock them down. You can't exceed the threshold, or you'll knock them down or launch them.

When you've done this enough, the Critical Damage numbers will turn red, and a indicator will show up on the opponent's side of the screen. This is when they're ready to pop- hit them with the Critical Burst.

You'll hear a big boom and the screen will shake. They're wide open, and they can't hold or guard. Hit them with your best launcher and combo them.



A Power Blow can only be used when you're at half-life or below. Your lifebar will flash red when it's ready. You can only hit with it once.

If your PB has good range or a backstep you can experiment with landing it "raw", but usually the best time is after a Critical Burst. You can just semi-charge it to get the effect, wait until the wind appears and the sound is made before releasing.
