Jack's Special Moves & Combos:

First up, we've got his signature punches. These are crucial for building up damage and setting up bigger hits.

1. Circular Motion Punches: This is your bread and butter for building meter and landing hits. You'll be doing a circular motion input (think: back, down, down-forward, forward) followed by a punch. The timing here is key, and Jack will often call out numbers.
• 'One' Punch: Perform the circular motion until 'f' and press 1. Jack says 'One' just before you complete the punch. This gives you 20 damage and builds meter.
• 'Two' Punch: Continue the circular motion until 'f' twice and press 1. Jack says 'Two' just before. This gives you 40 damage.
• 'Three' Punch: Continue the circular motion until 'f' three times and press 1. Jack says 'Three' just before. This gives you 60 damage.
• 'Four' Punch: Continue the circular motion until 'f' four times and press 1. Jack says 'Four' just before. This gives you 80 damage.
• 'Five' Punch: Continue the circular motion until 'f' five times and press 1. Jack says 'Five' just before. This results in 200 damage, but be warned: continuing the motion after this will cause three more spins that can't be canceled, and Jack won't say anything.
2. Ground Smasher (df+1): This is a great uppercut-style move. Input down, down-forward, then 1. Jack says 'One' just before completing this uppercut. It deals 22 damage.
