After patiently waiting since 2019, fighting game enthusiasts are finally getting their hands on 2XKO around the world with Riot Games’ latest Alpha Lab online playtest, where fans must master every universal move and combo in the book to stay ahead of the game.
Every champion in 2XKO has their own special move set that sets them apart from the rest of the roster, giving them unique playstyles that will cater and appeal to a wide variety of players. There are, however, a static set of universal moves all players will need to memorize and master as they learn the different skills of each available champion in the game.
Universal moves are actions every champion can take in the game, from basic attacks and other strikes to various ways to block an incoming attack and many other moves that can help shift the tide of battle. They’ll all look relatively different from their peers, but serve the same purpose of setting up for their own special move set.
Here are all of the universal moves and combos in 2XKO‘s Alpha Lab.
All universal moves in 2XKO
There are multiple different universal moves in 2XKO, ranging across four categories: movement, offense, defense, and tag team actions. For movement, players have five options to choose from separate from the simple movements (left, right, jumping up, and crouching down).
On the offensive end, players have the option to launch normal strikes, a launcher attack, a champ’s special attacks, a throw, and a large number of other abilities. There will also be a bunch of different specialized combos each champion has at their disposal. Each attack will look a lot different from the last, depending on which duo you’ve chosen for your battle.
Defensively, players can block and counter-attack as well, whether they wish to simply block a flurry of strikes or parry them for a chance to strike back. There are also several ways to move yourself out of harm’s way, whether that’s dashing back, getting up quickly, or rolling backwards to save yourself from a deadly combo.
Finally, Tag Team moves are used to jump start your duo movements with your other character, whether you need some assistance with fending off an attack, a quick strike to continue your combo, or a switch off to change the flow of the fight.
You can also change up various inputs, whether you’re playing on a controller or on a stick, which should make it very easy for anyone to get into the game.
