"Lunge forward with a powerful attack. Can be used to absorb an opponent's attack while launching your own offensive."
—Description, Street Fighter 6

The Sumo Crunch (ぶちかまし Buchikamashi?, Face Strike) is E. Honda's Drive Impact, introduced in Street Fighter 6.

Input
Classic Arcade-Button-HPunch+Arcade-Button-HKick
Modern Modern dl

Description

Executed by pressing Heavy Punch and Heavy Kick simultaneously (or pressing Drive Impact for Modern Control), Honda steps forward to smack his opponent upwards.

Tactics

Like all Drive Impacts, Sumo Crunch has 2-hits of armor during the startup frames. This makes it useful to absorb the opponent's attacks and retaliating as they are recovering. Hitting the opponent with Sumo Crunch as a Punish Counter puts them crumple state on hit, giving E. Honda enough time to start a damaging combo. In the middle of the screen, this move can push the opponent back on block. This gives E. Honda enough time to perform Sumo Spirit or charge for a Sumo Headbutt.
