How to play
Select your fighter and enter the arena to battle against an opponent in a series of rounds. Use the arrow keys to navigate the stage, jump, or crouch to avoid incoming strikes. Execute offensive maneuvers by combining movement with your attack keys. The objective is to deplete your opponent's health bar before they do the same to you, requiring a balance of aggressive strikes and defensive maneuvers.
Tips for beginners
- Watch your opponent’s animations to anticipate and block their attacks.
- Mix up your attack patterns to break through an enemy's defense.
- Maintain proper spacing to stay out of reach while preparing your own strike.
