DescriptionEdit

Executed by performing two quarter-circle backward motions and pressing punch, the attack sees Rolento roll backwards as he usually does, however dropping explosives (presumably mines) as he does so. These bombs explode almost immediately, in a wave which (if the opponent is caught by one) juggles the opponent towards from explosion to explosion.

TacticsEdit

Epic Super Clash Episode 7 - SFA2
Adon's Level 3 Jaguar Revolver against Rolento's Level 3 Mine Sweeper in Street Fighter Alpha 2.
Because the bombs 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 them forwards, toward a standing Rolento, who will usually be ready with an attack of some sort.

Another benefit of the attack is that it's effective against jumping opponents if timed correctly - an opponent who jumps in (especially those who attempt to cross-up Rolento) will suddely find him standing far away and themselves landing on a wave of explosions. How far back he rolls and how many mines he drops are determined by the level of the Super Combo.
