Straights and Jabs

Straights are utilized mostly as an intercepting strike or a start to a combination. Use your Straight to intercept an opponent who is throwing Hooks or Overhands.

Inputs:

^X^ or ^Y^ (Hold ^LT^ for Body)

Hooks

Hooks are a close range strike used to cause heavy damage. Use a Hook to catch an opponent who tends to move right or left often. Body hooks can often be used in succession within combos, to deliver high damage.

Inputs:

^LB^ + ^X^ or ^Y^ (Hold ^LT^ for Body)

Uppercuts

Uppercuts are a close range strike used to counter an opponent who is leaning forward or attempting a takedown. Uppercuts to the body pack a lot of power, even as a single strike.

Inputs:

^X^+^A^ or ^Y^+^B^ (Hold ^LT^ for Body)

Overhands

Overhands are the most damaging punches available, but also cost the most Stamina so throw them wisely. If the opponent is turtling up, trying to throw an overhand after a few jabs, to blast through the block.

Inputs:

^RB^ + ^X^ or ^Y^
