MASTER THE MECHANICS

Learn about the systems introduced in Garou: Mark Of The Wolves

TOP

Short for Tactical offensive Position, this system allows you to select one third of your life bar. As long as your life is in that region, you’ll gain a power boost and health regeneration. You can also perform an extra special attack with the C and D buttons.

JUST DEFEND

If you manage to block an attack at the last moment, you’ll perform a Just Defend – this regains some of your health, but more importantly doesn’t allow your opponent to build towards a Guard Crush. With good timing, these can be performed consecutively.

GUARD CRUSH

Sick of your opponent blocking all your attacks? Just keep hammering away and you’ll eventually cause a Guard Crush, which breaks the guard and momentarily stuns your opponent, giving you an opening to start a devastating combo.

COUNTER ATTACKS

By pressing A and B together, your character will perform an attack that hops over any incoming low strikes and hits the opponent over the head. If you push the joystick down and press A and B, you’ll perform an attack which counters mid/high strikes.
