This section will be updated and released as soon as any codes are known. Game Genie Codes: BEHT-GAD4 In a 2-player game, either player can choose the Eternal Champion with the left button. 9THT-HCP4 + In a 1-player game, Player 1 plays BEHT-GAF6 as the Eternal Champion (can select any character, but will then play as Eternal Champion). This WILL lock up the game after an undetermined amount of play.

When just beginning, choose a well balanced character and stay with him/her. The folks on Sega's Game Play lines recommend Xavier as a good starting character. 2. Go into the 1-player practice mode and set your Inner Strength to "Off" (which gives you unlimited Special Move power), set the CPU to 4 (the default), and set the time to "Infinite". Cycle through all the characters until you can beat them easily. Slowly increase the CPU's ability until you are at 8. 3. Now, turn your Inner Strength "On" and the time to "90 seconds". Practice until you can usually win. The difference here is that you will have to rely more on normal moves, and can let the clock help you in certain cases. 4. Be willing to change your attacks!!! If you try a particular move or combo, and it fails every time (against a particular opponent), don't keep doing it!!! For instance, in some cases a leaping punch will counter a leaping attack where a leaping kick won't. 5. When playing in a "Contest", keep an eye on the clock. Try to get an early advantage (in terms of damage), then mainly play in a defensive mode, only taking advantage of obvious opportunities. When the clock runs low (under 10 seconds), don't attack at all (unless your behind) - just run and block until the clock runs out. 6. Once a move is started, it will complete unless interrupted by a counter attack. For fastest response time, prepare your next move by pressing the first set of buttons before your current move is done. This is especially handy when you get knocked down - you can often come out of it doing a Throw. 7. Make use of your character's special abilities - like being able to stun your opponent or using extra jumping abilities to avoid attacks or projectiles. ETERNAL CHAMPIONS MOVE LIST ------------------------------- NOTES: 1) For each Special Move, I tried to figure out how much Inner Strength is needed to execute the move, and how much it consumes. I mainly did this by Insulting the opponent until my I.S. was gone, then repeatedly tried executing the move until I had enough I.S. for the move to be allowed. I found out a few curious things: a) Sometimes when your I.S. is full, executing a Special Move will not drain it at all - at least the gauge doesn't change. I suspect that you can have more I.S. than the gauge shows. b) It seems that the more I.S. you have, the more it will consume when performing some moves. Several of the moves will consume either 0.5 or 0.75 of the total I.S. - depending on how much you started with. The numbers I have listed are when the I.S. is low (more critical). 2) Some moves can be performed by different button sequences. In this case, I only listed the simpler sequence - or put the additional button sequence in parentheses. 3) Some moves will have a different name listed in parentheses - for example: Medium Kick (knee smash). The name in parentheses is the move that occurs when you use the same button sequence but your character is standing next to your opponent. 4) The damages listed for the Regular Moves is the MAXIMUM damage that move CAN do. However, some moves have multiple hits and can be blocked mid way through. This will reduce the amount of damage done. 5) Once a Special Move is initiated, Special Moves are disabled until the current S.M.'s attack, mode or whatever is over. 6) Special Moves marked with "*" are those that will stun or freeze the opponent - making for an easy attack. 7) Regular Moves marked with "@" are those that will provide "extra air" by moving up again (while in the air). For Rax, press U + F > Y to leap, then hit Y again. Massive air time!!! 8) There is a "total damage" number listed with each Combo move. This number is the MAXIMUM damage for the entire combo. Usually, the computer can and will start blocking during the move. This will reduce the amount of damage done. 9) The Top 5 moves are those that can be used very frequently for effective matches, not necessarily those that do the most damage.

Use Tracking Blades (CB .5, F + X + Y) or side kicks (D > C) to stop charges.

Use Reflect Back Projectiles (CB + X) to counter flying objects.

Use the Smoke Screen (X + Y + Z) followed by (X+Y) or (Y+Z) to knock opponents out of the air. 4. Use Flying Mine Uzume-Bi (CB .5, F + Z) to stop a charging opponent in their tracks (does well against Slash & Trident). 5. Play her using a "hit-n-run" offense. Defensive Strategies: 1. Use the Smoke Screen (X + Y + Z, ...) or Throw (F > Z) if cornered.

Slash's strongest feature is his club. Use it crouching, up close, leaping, etc... 2. When close execute the Spinal Crush (F + Y). 3. Stun opponents with the Power Thud (Y + Z) then move in and stomp on 'em. 4. Don't try to Throw (F > Z) unless you're good at hitting the opponent when he/she comes down - if you miss, you'll be tired (watch Slash's tongue wag) which is just as bad as being stunned! Defensive Strategies: 1. Get out of a corner with the Running Head Butt (CB .5, F + C).

Xavier's cane is his strong point. Use punching attacks to make the best use of his cane. 2. Use the Flying Forward Cane Attack (U + F > Z) to counter any aerial attack, or to flick opponents off the ceiling. 3. Keep opponents away with Boomerang Cane Throws (Z). Tip: You can defeat Slash with this one key! He will just keep walking into it. 4. Freeze opponents with the Midas Touch (CB .5, F + Y), then Throw (F > Z) them. Defensive Strategies: 1. Use the Swap Spell (X + Y) to swap positions with opponent, or the Confusion Spell (A + C) - if you become cornered.
