Tiger Knee is an advanced technique exclusive to ''Ultimate'' that involves making use of a jump alongside command inputs. Because none of his command input special moves can be used off the ground {{SSBU|Kazuya}} cannot make use of his technique. The name comes from Sagat's Tiger Knee attack in ''Street Fighter'', whose atypical input of '''↓ ↘ → ↗ + Kick''' allowed certain air special moves to be done as low to the ground as possible [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnTx4lRI8bA in other games following its debut]. This can be applied to any command input special move that can be used in the air; ergo, [[Super Special Move]]s, Oosoto Mawashi Geri, and Nata Otoshi Geri cannot be utilized with this technique. It is mainly viable with {{SSBU|Terry}} thanks to the sheer amount of aerial pressure he can exert using his special moves. However, there is niche utility with Ryu and Ken as well, albeit being extremely committal and not having much benefit over simply jumping and doing the input. | Tiger Knee is an advanced technique exclusive to ''Ultimate'' that involves making use of a jump alongside command inputs.

To perform the technique, input a jump alongside a singular A or B press prior to inputting a command special; for example, to do a Tiger Knee Burning Knuckle, one would do '''↓ ↘ → + Jump + Attack / Special''', in which the aerial version would be done, ignoring the ledge. Due to requiring a jump prior to the final input, it cannot be used alongside a special cancel, which puts a firm cap on its utility. | To perform the technique, input a jump alongside a singular A or B press prior to inputting a command special; for example, to do a Tiger Knee Burning Knuckle, one would do '''↓ ↘ → + Jump + Attack / Special''', in which the aerial version would be done, ignoring the ledge.
