    | Rare SFA2
      Combos by Desk
     |  
    |  |    
      
 
  
    |  Regarded
      by fans as one of the most polished, fun, and competitive 2D fighters of
      all time, Street Fighter
      Alpha 2 is a beloved and influential installment in the series'
      35+ year history. Even though SFA2 remains a widely-respected
      competitive classic, known for its unique mechanics (such as the Custom
      Combo system), there are still some very "broken" and jank combo
      possibilities that exist in the game. In certain situations, a glitch in SFA2
      can lock characters in a position facing away from their opponent. Once
      locked, characters locked into a "back-turned" position
      can still hit the opponent after initiating a Custom Combo (costing some
      of the super meter). 
 
    
    
    
    | World-renowned
      combo video creator, Desk,
      shows off a selection of Street Fighter Alpha 2's
      ridiculously-cheap (yet effective) Custom Combos using a wide variety of
      characters while using this particular glitch. Although these combos are
      situational (but could still occur in high-level competitive play),
      Desk's "backwards" combo exhibition below is a great study on
      the subject, and no doubt a highly-entertaining watch!

      demonstrations by Desk over on his YouTube
