Fighting games aren’t just about reactions—they’re about reading your opponent. Yomi is the art of predicting their next move before they make it. Spot patterns, bait responses, and stay one step ahead. The best players don’t just play the game—they play you.

First seen in Mortal Kombat 9, X-Ray Moves deliver brutal, bone-crushing damage at the cost of three bars of meter. Today, Fatal Blows have taken their place, but the impact is just as devastating. When the bones start breaking, you know it’s about to hurt!

When you hear Versus, think Marvel vs Capcom—fast-paced, high-flying, team-based chaos! With tag mechanics, assists, and relentless mixups, these games push reaction time and strategy to the limit. One mistake? Say goodbye to your character!

Blocking is your best defense... until it isn’t! Unblockables can’t be stopped by holding back, forcing you to dodge or parry. They’re rare, but when they show up in your fighting game, you better have a plan!

Got grabbed? Not if you tech it! A well-timed throw tech lets you escape and avoid getting locked down in fighting games. But be careful—tech too often, and you might get baited into a big counter. Stay sharp!

Critical Art, Desperation Move, Skybound Art—whatever the name, Supers are the flashiest, hardest-hitting moves in fighting games! They cost meter but can turn the tide with massive damage, power-ups, or extended combos. Time it right, and make it count!

Sometimes, dropping a combo is the plan! A reset tricks your opponent into thinking they’re safe, only to open them up for even more damage. Smart players use resets to mix up defenses in fighting games.

Want to throw a fireball? Master the Quarter Circle Forward motion! Down, down-forward, forward + button, also known as 236 in numpad notation. If you've ever thrown a Hadouken in Street Fighter, you know the motion. Keep practicing, and soon it’ll be second nature!

Feeling the pressure? Pushblock helps you escape relentless offense and reset neutral—but be careful! Used wrong, it can leave you wide open. Time it right, and you might just get your turn back!

One Character Victory—when a single fighter wipes out an entire team without breaking a sweat! But if the last character makes a full comeback? That’s a reverse OCV, and it hurts.

Before the combos and pressure, there’s neutral—the battle for control. Great players use movement, footsies, and strategy to force mistakes and take the advantage. Win the neutral, win the match!

When all three of your opponent’s characters get caught in one combo, it’s a holiday disaster... for them! Assists take extra damage, meaning a single mistake can cost the whole game. The ultimate gift… but only for you!

Keep ‘em airborne and rack up the damage! Juggles extend your combos with wall bounces, ground bounces, and creative follow-ups. The better your juggle game, the more effective your combos!

An infinite combo means getting stuck in a loop with no escape! While most games have mechanics to prevent them, players always find a way… until the nerfs hit!

Slow, strong, and terrifying up close—grapplers thrive on command throws and mix-ups. One wrong move, and you’re eating a hug that takes half your health! Respect the grab, or pay the price.

Footsies define the neutral game—the careful back-and-forth where players battle for control without taking big risks. It’s that classic dance of spacing, baiting, and punishing with quick, low-risk pokes to chip away at your opponent while staying out of danger.
