Corpse Hop

A Corpse Hop is the name for a tactic in Street Fighter games.

Description
A Corpse Hop refers to using an attack (that usually goes airborne) that can Sideswitch the opponent while they wake up from being knocked down.

Tactics
Corpse Hopping is usually done in an effort to keep the opponent guessing which side to block, very siimilar to a Cross Up. Some Characters such as Cody use this tactic as part of their overall gameplan. It is recommended that players who use characters who can use this tactic to learn the range of the "lunge" over the knockdowned character, to keep the side that will be landed as ambiguous as possible.

Generally characters of the smaller side of the spectrum such as Cammy and Menat are more vulnerable than bigger characters such as Hugo and Abigail to this tactic. As a bigger horizontal "lunge" is required to pass through characters with bigger hurtboxes, this also lowers the ambiguity of the landing of the attacks that can corpse hop bigger characters.
