Pangaea Burst (パンゲアバースト Pangea Bāsuto?) is G's Critical Art in Street Fighter V.[1]

Description[]

Executed by performing two quarter-circle forward motions and pressing Punch, G unleash several horizontally-advancing fire pillars to burn his opponent. If no directional input or button is pressed, G takes a bow before dropping back to his stance.

Tactics[]

Like most Critical Arts, this move is used to end combos to deal large amounts of damage to the opponent. The Pangaea Burst can be cancelled from most of G's special attacks G Smash Over, G Smash Under, or G Burst. He can also cancel into his Critical Art from his normals and unique attacks. G is also fully invincible during the startup and active frames of this attack. It can be used to punish other zoning characters as they are about to launch their projectiles at G. Not only does Pangaea Burst negate the oncoming fireballs, but it also inflicts big damage to his opponent at the same time.
