Killer Instinct (2013)

Combat Traits

Name	Description
Demon Loop	Omen can perform consecutive auto doubles in a row by pressing a button of lower strength during an auto double. Successfully completeing a cycle of Demon Loop (ex. Opener-LightAuto-MediumAuto-HeavyAuto-Ender) locks out one bar of the opponent’s Shadow Meter for five seconds.
Triple Shadow Meter	Omen's Shadow Meter is split up into three stocks rather than the regular two - however, it fills up just as quickly as any other Shadow Meter. In fact, every single one of Omen's combo enders also double-functions as a Battery Ender, so these traits give Omen much quicker access to abilities requiring Shadow Meter.

Command Attacks

Name	Input	Description
Furious Swipes	[→ + HP]	Omen advances with two swipes. Similar to Sabrewulf's Ragged Edge.
Phantasmal Slap	[LP] (air)	Omen swipes, causing flipout on airborne opponents.
Demon Glide	[→ →] (air)	Omen sprouts wings and glides forwards, swooping low to the ground. Can be canceled into any aerial.
Demon Retreat	[← ←] (air)	Omen sprouts wings and glides backwards slightly. Can be canceled into any aerial.
Throw	[→/← + LP+LK]	Omen grabs his opponent and straight kicks them away. Can be canceled into Shadow Rashakuken or Shadow Orda Shield.

Special Moves

Name	Input	Description
Rashakuken	[↓ ↘ → + P]	Omen throws dark fireballs with randomized behavior. Button strength determines number of fireballs; Light throws one, Medium throws two, Heavy throws three. There are eleven potential patterns for the Rashakukens to follow: Accelerator - Starts slow before speeding up. Anti-air - Fires at a 30-degree angle into the air. Boomerang - Fires outward before circling back and leaving behind Omen. Bullet - Rockets across the screen at maximum velocity. Crawler - Drops at Omen's feet before sliding forwards along the ground. Decelerator - Flies forward before stopping about halfway across the screen. Dud - Flies directly into the ground, about one character length away. Looper - Travels in circular loops that speed up as it crosses the screen. Tracker - Slowly homes in on the opponent until it hits or times out. Wave - Moves in a slow sine wave pattern across the screen. Wiggler - Moves side-to-side in front of Omen five times before fading.
Demon Slide	[↓ ↙ ← + K]	Omen performs a sliding kick along the ground. Hits low and switches sides with the opponent. Button strength determines distance.
Furious Flurry	[↓ ↘ → + K]	Omen rapidly kicks four times with one leg. Button strength determines range. Holding Kick extends the number of kicks.
Orda Shield	[↓ ↙ ← + P]	Omen swings a single Rashakuken fireball over his head, similar to Sabrewulf's Eclipse. Button strength determines number of hits. Light is fully invulnerable on startup.
