Description[]
A stronger version of God Press, Rugal slides forward with his rear hand open. Once he gets close enough to his opponent, he slams them back-first into the wall he's facing, causing a pillar of red energy with a skull to form. This functions as a blockable hit-grab.
The variation of this Super Special Move has Rugal drag the opponent to the wall behind him after slamming them into the first wall.
In KOF 94 and 95, he will jump back immediately if the attack is blocked, akin to God Press, which puts him out of reach of retaliation. Normal versions of Rugal and later versions of Omega Rugal do not have this extra motion as they merely stick their hand out forward in place when blocked, allowing it to be punished. Rugal will also only leap backwards upon the attack properly finishing.
As of KOF 98, Rugal actually runs while approaching the opponent with the move, only slide-dashing once the move connects successfully.
