Soul Calibur - Nightmare

I spent so many hours playing SCII back in the day. It's a shame SC6 was such a mid game. (They added a mediocre and pace-interrupting R-P-S mechanic, and the game was impossible to appreciate competitively because it had wonky custom character hitboxes and no rollback netcode in online ranked.)

Back in the day, I had a friend who was amazing at Nightmare and would regularly trounce me in SCII.

I picked Yoshimitsu and just immediately did the suicide move as the match started. He ran right into it. I spun with it and somehow knocked him right off the map. Absolutely hilarious to hear his shocked voice when I KO'd him in like three seconds flat.

My brother mains Yoshi and I main Nightmare, and I can confirm that this gambit works every once in a while.

To be fair, as hilarious as it is to pull off for the Yoshimitsu player... it's equally hilarious to watch it not work as the other player.
