It is supposed to be the same result for pushing the same button
Also that looks like one of the staff moves of xavier in eternal champions on Sega Genesis where you press the button x on 6 button control mode and he swirls a staff in a long pattern when you are close to an opponent
Nothing I have seen has convinced me that this new found game is better than the old eternal champions on Sega Genesis
Do not buy new games until they reach or exceed the old standards
