| X-axis functions can be used interchangeably with Y-axis functions and vice versa. X-axis functions cannot be used in conjunction with another X-axis function and vice versa.

| | |
| In addition to the letter notation, an Unicode arrow notation will be used. The symbols →, ↓, ← will be employed assuming your character is facing right, which is the initial position for the first player when a round starts. Thus, → will denote towards, ↓ denotes down, ← means back and ↑ means up. Finally, the symbols ↙, ↘, ↗ and ↖ will denote the diagonals. Unless stated otherwise, the player on the player 2 side will just reverse the commands left to right for similar results.

| ==Game Elements==
| |
| | |
| Fighting Layer consists of mainly 2d fighting game strategies but also has the 3d ability to move in and out of the screen.
| |
| | |
| ===Basic Elements===
| |
| | |
| * Life Meter
| |
| | |
| Life meters for both characters are displayed at the top of the screen. Once this is depleted through being hit, thrown, or taking block damage, the character with 0 life loses the round. Both characters may be reduced to 0 life at the same time, in which case the round is a draw.
| |
| | |
| * Timer
| |
| | |
| Fighting Layer is a timed game, and once time runs out the round is awarded to whichever character has more health. If health is even, the round is a draw.
| |
| | |
| * Barrage Gauge
| |
| | |
| What is commonly known as a super meter, the Barrage Gauge is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Up to 3 blocks of super can be stored, which may be used on Barrage Blows (supers) or Hard Reversals. The Barrage Gauge is filled through attacking and blocking moves.
| |
| | |
| * Super Illusion
| |
| | |
| A dragon icon just above the Barrage Gauge indicates whether a Super Illusion is available. The dragon is gold if so, or grey if not.
| |
| | |
| | |
