Special Moves
- Death Row (
+ 
x3) - An arcing rekka series made of three slashes that hit three times each. Death Row connects from cancelable Light attacks and causes a soft knockdown on the last hit; the player can use this attack often in basic hitconfirm combos and even Drive Cancel the last hit to extend a combo.
- Each part of the rekka can be delayed in order to make a frametrap on block or to stagger the timing in a corner juggle to connect with more hits.
- The first slash in the series is the safest on block though with the right spacing Death Row can be difficult to punish on block for some characters.
Death Row ( + + , + x4) - Mature's EX rekka has five slashes although this doesn't deal much more damage than the usual. She moves forward further though which will always allow the attack to connect after Light attacks where the standard version can sometimes whiff.
- Metal Massacre ( +
) - Causes Matures to attack with a horizontal slash that leaves the opponent standing. This attack is safe on block and can be Drive Canceled on hit. Only combos from Heavy attacks outside of a juggle combo.
- The version causes Mature to immediately use the forward slash while the slow alternative makes her run forward a bit before getting close to the opponent and then slashing.
- Metal Massacre ( + + ) - An improved slash that leaves the player with enough frame advantage on hit to link a Close to continue the combo. This version will also push the opponent back much further on hit and can be looped to perform a grounded corner carry combo.
