Meat Squasher



The Meat Squasher is one of Hugo's special attacks. Executed by performing a full-circle motion and pressing kick, the attack starts with Hugo raises his arms and dashing forward in a manner similar to the beginning of Zangief's Flying Power Bomb. If Hugo reaches a standing opponent, he will pick them up - by the face - and run with them toward the edge of the stage. When he gets there, he will let go just as he performs a body slam, squashing them between his considerable mass and the wall.

The attack is difficult to use in high-level play, but it has the unique property of always leaving the opponent in the corner no matter where in the stage Hugo first grabs the opponent. Because of this, the opponent will always be in a difficult position after the move finishes.

As the attack is a command grab, it cannot be blocked or parried.
