DescriptionEdit

Executed by charging backward and then pressing forward and punch, Vega rolls into a ball and launches himself forward in a series of forward tumbles, with his claw extended out towards the opponent, ending with a crouching punch using his claw hand.

It can connect with opponents for multiple hits, with the number of possible hits (and the maximum distance rolled) being determined by the strength of the punch button pressed: light punch has the quickest startup with the least damage/stun and two hits; heavy punch has the highest startup, damage, and stun with 5 hits; and medium punch is a balance of the two with 4 hits.

The EX Special version introduced in Street Fighter IV functions the same as the heavy punch version, with an added invulnerability to projectiles and increased chip damage^[1].

TacticsEdit

The Rolling Crystal Flash is ideal for ending a combo, and can be dash-cancelled for safety on block, or dash-cancelled forward into a throw or another set of attacks.
