Tips

  • Time your block right before an attack lands to perform a perfect parry.
  • Use kick to break an opponent's block.
  • Do not mash attacks. Spacing, timing, and reading your opponent matter.
  • If no one is online, try the AI practice mode first.
  • Grab a friend, download the game, and fight each other for GLORY!
