Gigaton Blow



Gigaton Blow is a Super Combo of Balrog's. It is exclusive to the "A-Ism" setting of Street Fighter Alpha 3. Balrog needs a full level three Super Combo Gauge in order to use the Gigaton Blow. In this attack, Balrog will pause; freezing time to charge (as with other super combos) and then immediately release a Turn Punch. This Turn Punch will be multihitting; having a maximum of nine hits. At the receiving end, the foe will be launched forward spiraling for a few seconds and fall.

If the foe is not trapped at the start and is knocked down early (via aerial fall), this could give them an opportunity to make an air recovery and counter attack. In addition, the end lag also leaves Balrog open if the foe blocks (though this will affect the Stun Gauge heavily).
