================
Health Gauge
================
I believe this doesn't require further explanation.
===============
Guard Gauge
===============
Below the Health Gauge, there is the Guard Gauge (red-colored). Each time
you or your Opponent get hits while guarding, the Guard gauge will fills
up. Beware, the higher your Guard Gauge, the greated the damages
you'll receive from your Opponent.
===============
Burst Gauge
===============
Below the Health Gauge, there is the Burst Gauge (with the obvious lettering
"Burst"). Burst can be performed by pressing "P/K/S/H+D". Burst can save
you from various situation. Don't use it recklessly though, or you will
instead get punished by your Opponent.
================
Tension Gauge
================
Below your Character, that is the Tension Gauge. It has various uses,
such as for using FD, Force Breaks, Overdrives, and Roman Cancels.
===============
Power Blocks
===============
This is exclusive to Robo-Ky. Instead of Tension Gauge, he have
Power Blocks to do various things just like Tension Gauge.
============
High Jump
============
By pressing "d, u" your Character can Jump higher.
=================
Multiple Jumps
=================
By pressing "u" once again, your Character can perform the 2nd Jump. While
Chipp and Justice can Jump up to 3x.
======================
Run/Dash & Air Dash
======================
By pressing "f" 2x your Character will perform running. With the exception
of Johnny and A.B.A for small dash. While Potemkin can't.
By pressing "f" 2x in midair your character will perform aerial dash. With
the exception of Potemkin for not being able to do it.
===========
Backstep
===========
Bye pressing "b" 2x you Character will perform backstep. The first frame
is I-frame. While Potemkin has a few more I-frames than the others.
=============
Just Guard
=============
By pressing "b" at the exact time your Opponent hit you, you'll activate
Just Guard. There's various benefits when you succeed at doing it, but
the timing is rather strict.
===========================
Faultless/Fortress Guard
===========================
By holding "b" along with two buttons "P+K/P+S/P+H/K+S/K+H". You'll
perform FD. Each time your Opponent hits you, you won't lose any Health
and you Guard Gauge won't fill up. But by doing this will lose your Tension.
=============
Slash Back
=============
New to Accent Core. By pressing "b+S+H" just at them moment your Opponent
are going to attack you to use this. Each uses consumes your Tension.
================
Air Recovery
================
When knocked into the air, press any button except "D" to recover and to
prevent your Opponent to continue the combo.
====================
Throw & Air Throw
====================
By pressing "f+H" close to an Opponent, your Character will perform a throw.
This can also be done in midair which of course you must be close to an
Opponent too.
===============
Throw Escape
===============
New feature to Accent Core. Just when your Opponent about to throw you,
press "f+H" to cancel it.
==============
Dust Attack
==============
By pressing "D", and if it hit your Opponent, you'll send the Opponet into
the air. Press "u" quickly" then you can chase your Opponent and then you
can combo your Opponent in the air.
===============
Sweep Attack
===============
By pressing "d+D" you'll perform a Sweep attack, if this hit your Opponent,
(s)he will get knocked down.
===================
Knockdown Attack
===================
By pressing "D" in midair you'll perform a Knockdown Attack, if this hit
your Opponent, (s)he will get knocked down.
====================
Dead Angle Attack
====================
Consider this as universal Counter Attacks since anyone can do this. To
perform this, your Character must be blocking an attack, and then press
"f" with any two buttons except "D". Dead Angle Attack used up 50% Tension
Gauge. Use it wisely.
==================
Clashing Attack
==================
When you and your Opponent use an attack at the same time at the right
range, the attack will clash with each other, and will recover immediately.
Don't waste the time after the quick recovery, quickly use any Move to land
some hits to your Opponent.
==============
Force Break
==============
New to Accent Core, Force Break is a Special Special Move. They have
various uses, some of them can be combo'd into, while some of them can't.
Force Breaks used up 25% Tension Gauge.
============
Overdrive
============
In SF, they're called Hyper Special Moves, and in KoF, they're called
Desperation Move. Each Character has their own unique set of Overdrives.
And most Overdrives used up 50% Tension Gauge.
===============
Instant Kill
===============
This move will defeat your Opponent instantly if it hits your Opponent.
But to perform this, you need to enter IK Mode first by pressing "P+K+S+H".
In IK Mode, the Gauge will slowly decrease and you can't use any
Tension-required Move (eg. Force Breaks, etc...). When your Tension Gauge
is empty in IK Mode, your Character will gradually lose health. Also
no matter the IK hits your Opponent or not, you'll lose your Tension Gauge
for the rest of the round.
Dizzy now have her own IK, but to perform it is difficult, and she doesn't
need to enter IK Mode first.
===============
Roman Cancel
===============
If you press 3 buttons at the same time other than "D" after you perform
an Attack or other Move, you'll activate Roman Cancel. Your Character
flashes red if you do it right. Any RC will eats up 50% Tension Gauge.
RC is usually used by experienced players to continue their combo.
=====================
Force Roman Cancel
=====================
FRC, different from RC, it only eats up 25% Tension Gauge. But you can't
use FRC freely unlike RC. Each Character have their own set of FRCs.
And the timing to perform them needs tons of practice. Your Character
flashes blue if you do it right.
========
Dizzy
========
If you combo your Opponent with lots of hits or you lands a powerful
attack your Opponent, your Opponent will enter a dizzy state. In this state
they're vulnerable to any attacks. To recover from this state, mash the
directions and the buttons.
==========
Stagger
==========
Some moves have stagger property when they hit an Opponent. Consider this
as mini-dizzy since their vulnerable time is shorter than dizzy. To recover
from this state, mash the directions and the buttons.

The Survival Mode in this game is different from the previous installment.
In this game, the game will also gives you various advantages such as stats
incrase, Health regeneration and so on. When you damages your opponent,
some of the damages will return to you as healt recovery. You can boost
this effect by getting the "Vampire Form" from "Gold" Slayer.
But first, I'll give you the list of the "Daredevils" in the Survival Mode.
When you successfully defeat HOS at Level 999, your Survival Level will
Level Up to Level 1.000 and then the Survival Mode will be over.
========

Tips
-------
This is how I cleared the Survival Mode:
1. Make sure to obtain the "Life Recovery" before fighting any "Gold"
characters.
2. Get "Soul of Zepp" from "Gold" Potemkin.
3. Get "Vampire Form" from "Gold" Slayer.
4. Use "Time Travelling" after you defeat "Gold" Axl if you need to level
up your basic stats.
5. In the end, make sure all 3 slots is filled with "Life Recovery",
"Soul of Zepp" and "Vampire Form".
Known by most players, don't guard too much when you fight "Gold" HOS.
Instead, keep pressuring him because he'll eat your attacks 70% all of the
time. And don't give him a chance to use his "Flame Distortion".
If you have troubles completing this Mode, lower your difficulty setting.
Set it to Normal (example) and then slowly raise your difficulty each time
you succesfully cleared this Mode.
