Battle Craze!!/Glossary

Craze Gauge: A 3-section gauge above the Adrenaline meter. This gauge increases as you take damage, as well as successful uses of Craze Technique and Unique Trait attributes. Each section of Gauge that is filled changes its color, notifying which Craze Cancels you have access to.

Craze Technique/Craze Tech: A maneuver specific to each character. It compliments their moveset or their Unique Trait.

Craze Cancel: A global mechanic that uses the Craze Gauge. The screen flashes as the action pauses momentarily, and you are reset to neutral. If you hold forward while using this on the ground, you’ll get a short dash. If you use this in midair, holding up can give you an extra short jump, and holding forward or backward will drift you in that direction.

Craze Focus: A Craze Cancel that costs 1 Gauge. Usable in neutral and while using certain Projectile-type Specials outside a combo. Primarily used for surveying the scene, disorienting your opponent with air control, or following your projectiles to make an approach.

Craze Assault: A Craze Cancel that costs 2 Gauge. Usable when moves are blocked, whiffed, or in startup. Useful for making risky moves safe or faking out your opponent.

Craze Blitz: A Craze Cancel that costs 3 Gauge. Usable after any hit or during any combo. Allows you to extend your combos even further.

Dire Counter: Special Counter Hits that have stronger outcomes than normal special moves. Dire Counters are a result of hitting the opponent during the recovery of certain command normals, specials, supers, and during their taunts. After landing a Dire Counter, the next time you use a move with a Dire Hit Property during that combo, the effect will trigger, extending the combo.

Heartbreaker: A defensive maneuver to get pressure off of you when blocking.
