Description[]
Utilizing his knowledge of Koppoken, Andy swings back his right/dominant hand back to ready it with ki and thrusts forward at their abdomen. If he makes direct contact with the opponent, Andy will follow up immediately with a shadowy jump to grab at the back of their head to climb and place his feet onto their body to lock themselves in a standing spider hold, and will forcefully drive his fists into their face; once with a palm strike into a constricting clutch, the second striking them in the nose or the chin. Upon disengaging and leaping off, the opponent is stunned and appears to convulse as if they cannot breathe, before a short while afterwards they are blown back by their face painfully restoring itself to form. During the delayed impact, Andy will time his taunting pose to punch into his palm upon the intended reaction.
Strategy[]
The attack replaces Geki Hishou Ken in Real Bout Special and Dominated Mind, and encourages Andy to be played as a rushdown setup character due to there being no ring outs like in its predecessor. The attack acts like a command grab, but must follow up clean to perform its full animation. Though it is not powerful despite its execution, its useful for resetting the neutral game, and for more skilled players, as a non-Special Power and Potential Power stylish "finishing move" like his shadow version's Kunai Dan or Geese's Atemi Nage.
