特殊技
An overhead attack that cannot be blocked while crouching.
Evaluation
Viper Elbow is C. Viper's 6MP command normal — an overhead that connects into combo on a late-hit (meaty) timing. Slow startup makes it readable, but the overhead property forces crouching opponents to stand block.
How to Use
- Overhead mix-up: Hits overhead, so crouching opponents must stand to block it. Use it in okizeme and pressure sequences to threaten the upper guard.
- Late-hit combo: Lands a meaty connect into combo. Timing is strict but gives real combo damage from an overhead.
- Pressure layer: Showing Viper Elbow conditions the opponent to stand block, which in turn opens up Seismic Hammer (low) and Burning Kick high/low guessing.
How to Counter
- Startup is relatively slow — you can react and stand block on reaction.
- After blocking, C. Viper is at disadvantage — punish immediately.
- Predominantly used during okizeme and blockstrings, so be alert for it after knockdowns.
