Gates of Hell is a command grab and one of several Command Input Special Moves exclusive to Kazuya.
How to perform
Within grab range, the player must perform ↘ ↓ ↘ + grab input. If done correctly, Kazuya's arms will glow red prior to the grab as a sign that the input was successful. If it connects, a special camera angle activates in 1-on-1 battles. Kazuya will then force the opponent to the other side of him, bend them back and kick them away, making it a useful tool when cornered to reverse the situation. Being the most damaging throw in the game, Gates of Hell is a powerful tool for bringing opponents into KO range, though its follow-up potential on its own isn't great. The knockback angle is extremely steep, gimping characters with poor recoveries at high percentages on its own. Because the input is tied to the A part of R+A — the macro a grab button input uses — Gates of Hell cannot be used out of shield.
