Kick


 * See Also:Punch

The Kick is a very basic type of attack seen in the Street Fighter series. When pressed, a kick-based attack is used, the type depending on the strength of the button pressed. Kicks generally have more range than punches.

Types

 * Weak: Usually angled down, these kicks are very fast. When crouching and using the weak kick, they are often chained together easily. Special attacks that use the weak attack are the least powerful and most slow.
 * Medium/Strong: These kicks are typically angled straight forward. When used with special attacks, they have moderate speed and power.
 * Roundhouse/Strongest: Angled upwards, these kicks are very powerful. When used as a crouching attack, they trip the foe. In most cases the user turns around and delivers the blow, hence the "roundhouse" nickname.

The kick button, as with the punch button, is the basis of many special attacks, such as the Flash Kick, and every type of Tatsumaki attack. However, they are generally used less in special attacks.

Trivia

 * Balrog's moveset completely omits kicks.
