My personal blog for Virtua Fighter

A lot of the old assets are not working anymore in this blog. What I had intended for this blog to be, a very well-organized notebook for the latest version of Virtua Fighter will now be transferred over to a private discord. I might use this blog instead for a variety of VF articles.

[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.
