The Peach Gator is R. Mika's V-Reversal in Street Fighter V.
Street Fighter V |
---|
Description
Executed by pressing forward and all three kicks after blocking an attack, R. Mika delivers a front kick to her opponent's ribs. If the initial kick hits, she then grabs her opponent by the head, turns around and drops to a seated position, forcing their neck to drop down on her shoulder.
Tactics
Like most V-Reversals, the purpose is to stop opponent's pressure or to get out of tough situations. This move is a solid escape option. If the opponent is constantly pressuring, R. Mika can use Peach Gator to create space and reset the neutral game at the cost of one block of V-Gauge.
Trivia
- In professional wrestling, this move is called a "three-quarter facelock jawbreaker". It was originally popularized by retired WWE professional wrestler "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who called it the "Stone Cold Stunner". The kick portion of the attack is a direct homage, as the entire sequence was Austin's signature attack.
