more effective than normal punches but are harder to execute.

pressing the opposite direction on the control pad with a button.
Roll Moves
Rolls are done by performing a rolling motion on the control pad and then
pressing a button. The instructions under the Character Profiles indicate
the key directional points you must hit during the rolling motion, but you
should try to hit all points in between.
Combos
Combos are basically a combination of buttons and moves that, when strung
together properly, award the player with extra hits. The best way to start
a combo is by performing an "Opener."Jump-in attacks, as well as some of
the Special moves can act as openers. To open with a jump-in attack, jump
into your opponent with a jump punch or a jump kick, and immediately follow
it up with the opposite button to receive an Auto-Double. An Auto-Double
can be produces multiple hits and can be performed by pressing the correct
button after successfully hitting your opponent with an opener. Even more
moves can be added to a combo after the auto double to get 20 or more hits!
Combo Breakers
There is nothing worse than being on the end of a big combo. But if you
have what it takes, you can stop them cold with a combo breaker. Each
character has a special move which they can use as a combo breaker. the
combo breaker can be executed between the opener and auto-double, as well
as the extended hits of a combo.
Ultra Combos
The Ultra Combo requires a specific ending move on the end of a combo. The
move depends on the character being used and can only be done when the
opponent's life bar is flashing. An extremely humbling experience, a victim
can only watch as his or her character is beaten mercilessly.
