While mechanical skill is key to winning any fighting game, it’s important not to underestimate the power knowledge can give you over your opponent; Understanding core game mechanics can give you a huge edge over an opponent who doesn’t know them. In this guide, we’ll help you get better at DNF Duel by showing you how to use your Super.

How to activate Awakening Skill in DNF Duel

In DNF Duel, your “Super” is also known as your Awakening Skill. This is a special, ultimate attack that can only be used when you are in the Awakening state, which triggers when your HP is low. To activate it, first make sure you are Awakened — you’ll know you’re Awakened when your HP bar is red and flashing. When in this state, simply activate your Awakening Skill or “Super” by pressing the Awakening button. On Playstation controllers, this should be L2, or the Left Trigger on Xbox controllers.

Your Awakening Skill is incredibly powerful, and proper usage of it can be the difference between life and death. You’ll want to make sure you use this ability at exactly the right time. Holding on to your Awakening Skill for too long can see you losing without even getting it out, but using it too early can put your enemy in the Awakened state and leave you open to face check their own super.
