Description
Executed by pressing forward plus Heavy Punch and Heavy Kick (or pressing forward and Drive Impact for Modern Control), Terry strikes the opponent with a backfist, knocking them away.
Tactics
As a Drive Reversal, Back Knuckle serves as a way for Terry to escape offensive pressure being applied to him; similar to Alpha Counter or V-Reversal. It cost 2 bars of Drive Gauge. This move can be only be performed when Terry is in blockstun or on a successful Drive Parry. Upon activation, Terry is fully invincible during the startup and active frames of this move. On hit, it inflicts decent amount of provisional damage. Back Knuckle can also break armor. It is also effective in keeping the opponent in the corner should they attempt to force their way out. Once the opponent is knocked back, Terry can approach the opponent on the ground with Burn Knuckle or keep them at a distance with Power Wave.
