UFC 5 Spinning Strikes Tips & tricks

Learn how to improve your skills in UFC 5

How to Spin

In order to perform a spinning strike, first you must spin. You can spin clockwise (while standing Orthodox) by pressing ^A^+^B^, and the opposite direction by pressing ^LB^+^A^+^B^. After triggering the spin, immediately press an attack button (^A^, ^B^, ^X^, or ^Y^) to perform a spinning attack. Some fighters have access to additional spinning kicks that use the ^LB^, ^RB^, or ^LT^ modifiers in conjunction with ^A^ or ^B^. Some fighters have different spinning attacks available depending on the direction of the spin so experiment accordingly.

Inputs:

Rear Spin ^A^+^B^
Lead Spin ^LB^+^A^+^B^

Spinning Backfists and Elbows
