How to play
The core objective is to defeat your opponent's team of three fighters in successive one-on-one rounds. You control one character at a time, using a combination of normal attacks, special moves, and powerful super moves to deplete the opponent's health bar. The game utilizes a four-button control scheme for punches and kicks of varying strength. A key mechanic is the Power Gauge, which builds as you attack or take damage. You can spend stocks from this gauge to perform more damaging Super Special Moves or enter a Max Mode state for a limited time, allowing for extended combos. In the early moments of a match, focus on poking with safe normal attacks to gauge your opponent's habits and build meter. During the mid-game, use your stocked meter aggressively for Max Mode combos to secure a life lead. In tense situations, a well-timed guard cancel or a desperate super move can turn the tide.
