Attacks off Objects

One way to catch your opponent by surprise is to attack off an object in the environment.
This works especially well off walls and poles, but you can also launch attacks from large
objects such as a car or a fountain. To attack off an object, position your character near
the object and then press the D-pad toward the object at the same time that you pull the
Right trigger. Wall attacks can only be performed with your back towards the object. You'll
fl y off the object with a powerful and nearly unstoppable attack.

Alternate Stances

Alternate stances enable you to do alternate moves while fi ghting. Each character has two
alternate stances and the ability to do a punch and a kick attack from each one. When you
change to your alternate stance, you remain in it until you perform an attack or move out
of it. Moves from alternate stances build up chi m ore quickly. They also allow additional
combo strings that provide a different look to your fi ghting—a good way to keep
opponents off balance. For information about the button presses required for an alternate
stance, see the Basic Moves list.
