[General] Special Mid Strike

Unlike normal Mid Strikes, Special Mid Strikes deal no damage against characters in a Crouching Guard position. However, Special Mid Strikes against characters in a Crouching Guard position force the characters to stand and remove their guard (1).

Special Mid Strikes are also known as EX Mid Strikes.

Approximately 2% of all Mid Strikes are Special Mid Strikes.
