Custom Combos and Alpha Counter moves.
Super Combo
Each character has three different Super Combo levels. The higher
the level, the more damage you can inflict. The amount of damage inflicted
by a combo can be controlled depending on the buttons pressed. The more
buttons you press simultaneously, the more damage will be inflicted but
more power will be consumed from your gauge.

Custom Combo. Above the Super Combo Level Gauge will be the Custom
Combo Timer.

will end.
Custom Combo Hints

your character will roll forward and avoid being floored by your
opponent's move.
Block / Air Block
When your opponent is attacking, press Back on the control pad
instead of fighting back to avoid taking damage. Blocking also works
while you're in the air.
Alpha Counter

(Back, Back & Down, Down + Punch or Kick). This will perform an Alpha
Counter attack, which is a quick counter move against your opponent.

Move toward your opponents and press either a Medium or Strong Punch
or Kick button. Depending on the character, you may be able to execute
a throw or grab move automatically.
Taunting
To do some serious trash talking, press SELECT to taunt your opponent
(once per round). Just make sure you have the fighting skills to back it
up!

out. To recover quickly, press the Control Pad or any button rapidly.
