Description
Deadly Rave is a term originating from the fighting game series 'The King of Fighters.' It is a type of special move that involves a series of rapid, chained attacks that a player initiates with a single command. Typically, once the initial move connects with the opponent, the player must input a specific sequence of buttons to continue the combo. Failing to input the correct sequence results in the combo ending prematurely. This move is often associated with characters like Rugal Bernstein in 'The King of Fighters' series, where it serves as one of his most powerful attacks. The Deadly Rave requires precise timing and dexterity, making it a high-risk, high-reward maneuver that can turn the tide of a match if executed correctly.
Examples
- In 'The King of Fighters '94,' Rugal Bernstein can execute the Deadly Rave by inputting a specific combination of buttons after the initial hit, leading to a series of powerful strikes that can decimate an opponent's health bar.
- In 'Capcom vs. SNK 2,' Geese Howard also has a version of the Deadly Rave. Players must perform a precise input sequence to unleash a devastating multi-hit combo, showcasing the move's iconic complexity and power.
