And he's broken the game, so they're taking it offline for a bit.
Players discovered they could use Rashid’s 'Ysaar' attack to create a tornado that would stay on the screen for a prolonged period of time. This meant whichever player made the attack could use this wall of wind to whittle down their opponent’s health until they ultimately got knocked out.
You can see how this looked in play thanks to fighting game pro Justin Wong in the tweet below.

Just a heads up eagle spike is like -36, which means you can just dash forward and do anything you want.
Better yet, most characters drive impact will reach and you'll get a free combo. Apparently with some characters you have to walk forward a tiny bit.

Dash forward?
Unsurprisingly this evening I got my arse absolutely handed to me at 2 star Bronze.
Double tap forward to dash. Or you can do a drive rush by parrying and then dashing, this gives you a big boost to your speed for a moment at the cost of a bar of meter.
I've taken Manon to platinum 1, but I want to give playing a non-grappler a go. I think I'm going to try Luke.
Went on another couple of Winning streaks this evening and starting to feel like I've earned my place in Bronze rank. I'm getting the sense that I can better adjust my style to an opponent's tactics. If they guard too much I move in close for throws and challenge them with jumps if they're all out attack I just learn to counter attacks they rely to heavily on. I'm still no good at punishing random Drive Impacts but my anti air is pretty decent. Modern controls really are an absolute life saver they keep me in the game so much and knowing when to break out auto combos is great. Mixed in with some of the harder combos which I'm pretty decent at I'm really enjoying the game.
I thought I was out a couple of weeks ago but after a few weeks of little play coming back to it I seem to have gotten better and can see a route to Silver rank!
I get really annoyed at articles like this. Its not 1995 anymore, obviously games can't cost £39.99 for a triple A game and expect to make any kind of profit, its not realistic. If consumers aren't willing to pay more at entry, they have no choice but to use DLC/add-ons/extras to get enough money to justify a games existence. In reality video games could be way more expensive currently then they are adjusting for inflation.
