EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK · SECTION 9: FIGHTING

1. READ

Every punch has a tell. The glove glows before it swings.

2. DODGE

Dodge away from the glowing glove. Hooks can be ducked; uppercuts can't. Dodge late for a PERFECT.

3. PUNISH

After a miss, a perfect dodge, or a taunt, they're open. Hit them. Punching a guard gets you countered.

4. OVERTIME

Fill the meter with counters and perfect dodges, then throw a HAYMAKER. The final K.O. has to be a counter, a punish or a haymaker.
