Sonic Boom from crouch block on a leverless controller

Charge on Down-Back so you block low the whole time, then let go and press Forward + punch.

  1. Hold Down + Back to charge.
  2. Press Forward with Square (Punch).

Watch it slowed down, then press Try it and do it yourself with a controller or your keyboard (A, S, D and Space, or the arrow keys). Timing is not frame-accurate. The animation shows the order of presses; check exact timing in your game's training mode. The animation assumes the Capcom/Neutral SOCD mode (Left + Right = Neutral, Up + Down = Neutral), which is how the MICRO and SWORL ship. Game and character names belong to their owners.

Pro notes: Sonic Boom from crouch block

Notation [1] 6 + P. Directions are written for a character facing right.

Keys you press vs what the game reads

Top row: the buttons you hold. Bottom row: the direction the game receives. No opposing directions are held together in this input, so every SOCD mode reads it the same way; diagonals are two keys read as one direction.

Frame and timing notes

No frame data is claimed for this entry. Use your game's training mode with the input display on to confirm the window.
