Daikyo Burning



The Spine Grinder (also known as "Daikyo Burning" circa Street Fighter Alpha 2) is a grab-based attack of Sodom. In this attack, Sodom will run forward pointing his weapons forward, and if the foe is within grabbing range, he will take the foe and drag then across the stage floor. The enemy receives small amounts of damage while being dragged until the end of the attack where they are burned and damaged greatly. The foe is on their back during this move, hence the original name of the attack,"spine grinder".

Initially, in the original Street Fighter Alpha, this attack was very strong and incredible at fierce power. It usually took around a 1/5 of the opponent's health bar when landed successfully. In SFA2 the power was nerfed but is still not to be underestimated.
