Description
Executed by performing a Shoryuken motion? and pressing kick, Yun performs a pair of jumping high kickstwice in succession while moving at a relatively low angle.
The distance and height are determined by the kick button pressed: the light kick version barely leaves the ground; the medium kick version goes about half a screen's distance to the top; and the heavy kick version goes all the way to the top of the screen.
The EX Special version travels twice as quickly at the heavy kick version's height.
Tactics
The attack's hitbox and trajectory make it difficult to use as a truly effective anti-air[1], but it can be useful for juggles.
Trivia
- This move shares many similarities with the Renkantai (Chain Linking Thigh), a move used by characters in many other fighting games: Athena Asamiya from the King of Fighters series, Miyako Arima from the Melty Blood series, and Rin Tohsaka (as well as Kirei Kotomine) from Fate/Unlimited Codes.
