SPECIAL METER : You can accumulate three Power Stocks and you keeps it when you tag your partner. With this Power Stocks, you can do Super Special Moves and Duplex Combos. The Special Meter fill up very quickly when you're using Special Moves, and when you hit the opponents or when they hit you.
PARTNER METER : The Partner Meter fill up automatically, and when it's full, you can tag your partner or you can use a Team Duplex. When you're tagging your partner, he comes out running and he hits the opponent. You can also use this in combos.
FIRST IMPACT : After pressing CD, the opponent fly into the air and you can do a special combo (in the air). Each fighters has specific combo, consisting of a series of different buttons press (indicated at the bottom of the screen). Other combos are also usable when your opponent is near the edge of the screen.
DUPLEX COMBO : By doing QCF + BC, you can do a Duplex Combo (used two Power Stocks of the Special Meter). To do this kind of attack, your two partners should have energy life and the Partner Meter must be full. It's like a Team Super Special Move. Your character will ram the opponent. If you hit the target, your character will do a combo and your partner will come out. You can even do a second Duplex Combo with your new character before the opponent falls down. Timing is the key.
Note : If you fight with your Special Partner, the Team Duplex will be different and exclusive for the team, comparatively to a Team Duplex with any other partner.
SUPER SPECIAL MOVE : Each character has one Super Special Move, but you have access to two different levels of power. If you make the move with WP or WK, this will use one Power Stock of the Special Meter. But if you make it with SP or SK, the attack will be more powerful and it will use two Power Stocks of the Special Meter. This attacks are very devastating (similar to the Desperation Moves and Super Desperation Moves in King of Fighters).
SPRING ATTACK : Like KOF 2001, some sort of Wire Attack exist in this game : the Spring Attack. However, the opponent don't bounce back at you. In fact, he stucks on the wall a few seconds and falls down. After several Spring Attacks, the wall will disappear and the background comes taller (like Real Bout).
SURRENDER : One of your character can surrender during a fight. This technique has the characteristic that your surrending partner will give you his remaining Power Stock(s). To do a Surrender, your two partners should have energy; the Partner Meter must be full, and you should not be under attack.
SPECIAL NOTE : Some characters have Special Cancels (Fd + WP or WK)
