Description
In the realm of fighting games, a Heavy Punch is a significant move that players can execute to deal substantial damage to their opponents. This move typically requires more time to perform compared to lighter attacks, but it compensates with its ability to inflict greater harm. The Heavy Punch is often used strategically to break through an opponent's defense, create an opening, or capitalize on a moment of vulnerability. While it may leave the player momentarily open to counterattacks due to its longer wind-up and recovery times, its impact can be decisive in turning the tide of a battle. This move is a staple in many fighting games, providing a balanced risk-reward element that adds depth to the gameplay.
Examples

- In 'Tekken 7', Kazuya's Heavy Punch is a formidable attack that can be combined with other moves to create devastating combos, making it a crucial part of his offensive arsenal.
Additional Information
- Heavy Punches are generally slower but more powerful than light or medium punches.
- They can often be used to start or end combos, depending on the character and game mechanics.
