Description
Executed by pressing Light Punch, and then Medium Punch, Urien first delivers a quick jab. If the initial attack hits, Urien finishes the combination with a cross punch.
Tactics
This is one of Urien's target combos from close range. It does slightly less damage than his other target combo. However, it can be cancelled into his special attacks, such as Metallic Sphere, Chariot Tackle, or V-Trigger. While this combo is -4 on block, it can be difficult to punish Urien due to the pushback of the two moves.
Despite inflicting minimal damage, Killer Straight can serve as a combo starter or extender. His Standing Light Punch has a 4-frame startup, making it Urien's go-to move for quick punishes. By linking with Standing Medium Kick and cancelling into one of his special attacks, Urien can inflict decent damage with this target combo. In addition, Killer Straight can be cancelled from Light Chariot Tackle, allowing him to extend combos and maintain pressure.
