Description

Executed by performing a quarter-circle backward motion and pressing kick while in the air, Twelve angles his arms as if he was a fighter jet, and "kamikaze attacks" the opponent.

The angle of the attack is determined by the kick button pressed; heavy kick version has the shallowest angle of descent, light kick version has the steepest, and medium kick version lies somewhere in-between.

The EX Special version introduced in the same game is faster, hits twice and knocks the opponent down on hit.

Tactics

The attack has excellent priority and can be used as an air-to-air attack, or on grounded opponents who are in the middle of a whiffed attack. If it is blocked, it has a large amount of recovery, and so is easily punished. If it hits, it does not knock the opponent down; however, it deals enough hitstun that it is generally safe on hit.

Trivia

• The abbreviation of this attack possibly stands for "Diving Roll Attack".
