Light Punch

The Light Punch is one of the five basic attack types in Street Fighter VERSUS. Its a pretty straightforward manuever all characters can utilize.

Light Punches are the fastest and weakest attacks in almost every character's arsenal, meaning they are good to stuff slower attacks or put quick, safe pressure up but they will not do a lot of damage when done in succession. These are the base building block of many characters' selection of Chain combos, although of course it depends on the magic series a character has.

Many characters can rapid fire their Light Punches by pressing the button multiple times in a row. This will cancel the current Light Punch into more Light Punches. Almost every character has the ability to do this, but not all, such as Haggar.

This can also be done while crouching, or in the air. Crouching Light Punches serve the same uses as the standing version, for the most part. Jumping Light Punches are the basic start for most characters' Air combo.
