The Nikankyaku (弐間脚 Nikankyaku?, Second-Chance Leg) is one of F.A.N.G 's special attacks, introduced in Street Fighter V.

Input
Street Fighter V Arcade Stick S+Arcade Button Kick

Description

Executed by performing a "Shoryuken" motion and pressing kick, F.A.N.G slides across the stage by doing vertical splits.

The Arcade-Button-LKick has the shortest distance, the Arcade-Button-MKick version goes a middle-distance, and the Arcade-Button-HKick version slides the farthest. The EX version also goes a far distance but has strike and projectile invincibility.

Tactics

Nikankyaku

This is a good way to escape corner pressure and to get as far away from his opponent as possible.

This move can also go through his opponent's body and cross to the other side. This leads to some tricky setups and mix-ups where his opponent has to guess where F.A.N.G will end up. F.A.N.G can cancel into the slide after a fireball and makes for great escape options when he need to switch sides from the corner. Every version of the Nikankyaku is projectile invincible after the 6th frame and helps F.A.N.G slide right under fireballs to get into the ranges he wants to be in.
