Fatal Fury Special/Tung Fu Rue

Introduction

A glass cannon combo machine with short reach but explosive damage - Tung is a high-risk, high-reward character that requires plenty of practice to be played effectively, but has the potential to win a round with just a couple of good reads.

Pros	Cons
Fast moves Small size allows him to dodge moves easily Strong close range game	Just big enough to eat combos that don’t work on Jubei Low amount of dizzy points Has trouble getting in against good zoners

Version	Damage	Stun	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit Adv	Block Adv	Property
A	14 (3)	3	Mid	11	14	15	39	-8	-11	-
Safe on block when spaced correctly, making it a good move for dealing chip damage.
C	22 (5)	6	Mid	15	24	20	58	KD	-22	-
Tung's main combo ender. Travels much farther and is very unsafe on block.

Ressen Kyaku ([1]9K)

Ressen Kyaku
[1]9B/D

B

D

A command grab. Input the button slightly before the 9 direction to avoid accidental jumps.

• Having a charge motion limits its usability, but it makes for an excellent "get off me" move when being pressured up close as it has only 1 frame of startup.

• 

Version	Damage	Stun	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Hit Adv	Block Adv	Property
B	16	3	Throw	1	1	/	/	KD	/	-
Made irrelevant by the D version. Charge time: 25F. Does less damage than a normal throw but has more range.
D	26	6	Throw	1	1	/	/	KD	/	-
Charge time: 50F. Has more damage, stun, and range than the B version.

Shouha ([1]6P)

Would be a great anti-air, but the mash input makes it impractical. Potentially unsafe on hit as well. Mostly used as a chip kill/trick combo move.

Advances and does good chip, but unless it hits meaty there is a punishable gap between the 2nd and 3rd hit on block. To avoid accidental jumps, press BC slightly before 8.

Combos

Note: c5A whiffs on crouching/dizzy Mai

• c5AxN, f5A, 2D - 35 damage (N=3). Reliable combo. If near the corner and the opponent has no reversal, 2D can be cancelled into 6328BC for +20 damage in meaty chip.
• c5AxN, f5A, 2C > 214C - 54 damage (N=3). 214C may whiff against short crouching characters if done from too far.
• 2C > [1]6C
• c5D(2) > 214C
• Meaty 2B, c5A, 2C > 214C
• (Corner) Lane attack, c5C > Mash C
