Description
Executed by performing a half-circle forward motion and pressing punch, the attack sees Necro slide forward and perform a series of spinning punches. The attack has three hits in total. The attack has different properties depending on which punch button is pressed; light punch causes the attack to knock the opponent down if it connects, and has only a few startup frames; medium punch does not knock down, and heavy punch leaves the opponent in a "stun-like" state.[1] The EX version has five hits as opposed to the regular three, and is much faster.
Tactics
This is Necro's staple rush attack, as it is very flexible and fits into almost all of Necro's combos.
