1.The arena objects often have patterns you can learn. Learn where and
when the spears fall, and you'll have a leg-up on the competition.
Learn that consecutive meteors drift across the playing field, and
you'll be able to coax your opponent into their path.
2.Use a punch to throw spears or rocks. Use a kick to kick barrels.
3.You can interrupt punches with kicks_a good way to fake out computer
(or human) opponents. Try a power punch interrupted by a speed kick.
You can also interrupt attack moves by repeatedly pressing the buttons.
4.When you start to get beaten badly, learn how to use the guard. Let
the computer hit you while you're guarding, then respond with one or
two quick attacks.
5.Learn the special moves for each character. The moves which do two
or three collisions (combos) or cover a great distance are the most
valuable ones.
6.When a player executes a combination against you, you can do one of
three things:
a. Interrupt it with a very quick move timed perfectly;
b. Pound repeatedly on the speed kick or speed punch button in the
hope of interrupting the combo;
c. Guard, to minimize the damage you are taking.
7.When you fight a boss, it's wise to guard immediately after the bout
begins. The bosses can knock your arms off, and without your arms,
it's difficult to beat the boss.
