Description[]

Mine Sweeper

Rolento finishing the move on Guile in Ultra Street Fighter IV.

Executed by performing two quarter-circle backward motions and pressing punch, Rolento rolls backwards, dropping grenades as he does so. These grenades explode almost immediately, in a wave which juggles the opponent towards from one explosion to another, should the first explosion connect properly.

How far back he rolls and how many grenades he drops are determined by the level of the Super Combo in the Alpha series.

Tactics[]

Mine Sweeper

Because the grenades land only along the path Rolento rolls, the attack must usually be performed at close range to the opponent in order to hit with them. Even if the opponent blocks, the force of the explosions will usually push (or more so pull) them towards a waiting Rolento.

The attack is also effective against jumping opponents if timed correctly - an opponent who jumps in and/or attempts to cross-up Rolento) will be caught in a wave of explosions that will leave them vulnerable to any assortment of juggles.
