You know, a move that's easy to pull off, tough to counter, and easily performed repetitively, like Nina Williams' nuts kick in Tekken 3.

King's "prison kick", where he drops and slide/kicks you in the shins 3x

Back back forwards!

Ice Man's "Ice Beam" in MvC2, and Cable's pistol move.

Hundred Hand Slap on the SF games that let you move while you're doing it, I suppose?

oh my god Hundred Hand Slap so OTM. Rrr I get frustrated just thinking about it.

Liu Kang -- alternate F F Punch and F F Kick until victory. Repeat until Shang Tsung.

Raphael's move on Soul Calibur 2, where he just twats them on the head three times with his sword!

OTM.

Pulling your opponent's joypad out.

haha one of the best moments in my gaming career came watching two friends playing goldeneye, one friend (uh called 'flakey') went into a blind rage and threatened to stab my other friend (fr wht I thought was just a legitimate beating wtf?) and removed his pad from the N64 and continued to play out the rest of the deathmatch, all remaining 5 kills.

YES otm, with also hemming the opponent in a corner so they can't stand up in time to execute their move because you're constantly leg sweeping them.

Leg-sweeping on Virtua Fighter 3, with Shun Di(the drunken master guy). i once beat the entire game doing little else. They can block a front sweep, but not a back, etc.

Paul's punch/elbow combo in Tekken.

― kingfish superman ice cream (kingfish 2.0), Thursday, 22 September 2005 13:54 (twenty years ago)

the unblockable angel/devil's laser attack in tekken 2! aaaaargh stop doing that you bastard!

― haitch in SYD (haitch), Thursday, 22 September 2005 13:57 (twenty years ago)

That move in the Soul Calibur games where Yoshimitsu sits on the end of his sword and pogos about.

― melton mowbray (adr), Thursday, 22 September 2005 14:04 (twenty years ago)

also in Soul Caliber, ivy when she extends her sword into the ground and it pops up about 3 yards away.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 22 September 2005 14:06 (twenty years ago)

Liu Kang's hat-throw in Mortal Kombat II, when you could steer it up or down depending on whether your opponent jumped or ducked. Also, with any character, getting your opponent in the corner and uppercutting them, and then uppercutting them again on the way down.

― antexit (antexit), Thursday, 22 September 2005 15:12 (twenty years ago)

pretty much all special moves in mortal kombat, basically.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Friday, 23 September 2005 06:34 (twenty years ago)

I agree about Raphael, ugh, that Ivy move is totally not cheap though!

The was this thing on European Club Soccer where you got the ball ANYWHERE near the halfway line and shot and then headered the shot in from the edge of the penalty box, it was effectively unpreventable and like always worked always.
