Free Fall Kombat
Free Fall Kombat can be initiated on certain levels (refer to our Levels section for more) by knocking or throwing your opponent off of a ledge—usually through some sort of destructible restraining wall. Moves that normally send your opponent flying horizontally are the best way besides a throw to break into a Free Fall Kombat segment. Certain levels feature drops prominently, some without a limit on the number of Free Fall Kombat segments you can initiate.
Free Fall Kombat is risky, however, since things can turn against you in a split second. While in the air, you'll be able to switch positions with your opponent. Whoever is on top at the bottom will dole out the damage. So what should you be doing during these sections? Well, if you're on top, you should randomly hit the face buttons to beat your opponent.
If you are on the bottom, you must match your aggressor's button presses. One way to simplify this, and not risk timing problems, is to mash a single button and hope it comes up randomly in your opponent's random pressing. This works quite well against computer controlled fighters.
As the fighters swap spots in the air and accrue damage, a meter on the side of the screen will be filled. When this meter reads "SUPER," hit the RB to perform a special move to end the Free Fall Kombat early and ensure damage to your opponent (up to 30%!). You can hold out longer for a higher meter, and thus, higher damage, but you risk your opponent turning the tides on you.
