Strap in, brawlers! We’re hurtling towards Skytrain Stage Seven in Streets of Rage 4, a high-octane level that tests your combat reflexes and platforming skills. This guide, inspired by my YouTube video, will equip you with the knowledge and strategies to dominate this electrifying stage.
Navigating the Chaos:
Skytrain Stage Seven throws everything but the kitchen sink at you. Here’s how to navigate the mayhem:
- Master the moving platform: This stage’s defining feature is the constantly moving Skytrain. Learn to anticipate its movements and use it to your advantage. You can use the train to dodge attacks, launch yourself into aerial combos, or even perform devastating throws off the edge.
- Beware of the drop: Missing a jump or being knocked off the train can mean a quick trip down to the electrified tracks below. Stay focused and prioritize maintaining your footing.
- Eliminate patrolling enemies: Strategic use of your special attacks can clear out groups of enemies efficiently, minimizing the risk of getting knocked off the train.
Enemy Onslaught:
- Cyborgs: These metallic menaces can be tough. Focus on interrupting their attacks and exploit their vulnerability after missed strikes.
- Kamikaze Soldiers: These suicidal enemies pose a constant threat. Time your dodges perfectly to avoid their explosive charges.
- Ninjas: Agile and sneaky, these shadowy warriors can teleport and launch surprise attacks. Stay alert and use throws or area-of-effect attacks to counter them effectively.
Showdown in the Skies: The Nitronic Twins
The Nitronic Twins, awaiting you at the end of the train ride, present a formidable challenge. Here’s how to take them down:
- Divide and conquer: The twins share a health bar. Focus on damaging one at a time to make the fight more manageable.
- Watch out for the electric slams: Both twins can perform a devastating electric slam attack. Jump or dodge to avoid taking heavy damage.
- Punish after missed grabs: The twins can attempt a grab attack. If they miss, unleash a combo to punish them for their overconfidence.
Bonus Tips:
- Don’t neglect your health: Keep an eye out for food items scattered throughout the stage. Grabbing them can be the difference between victory and defeat.
- Utilize your partner (co-op mode): Coordinate your attacks and revive each other to maximize your chances of success.
- Practice makes perfect: Don’t be discouraged if you don’t conquer Skytrain Stage Seven on your first try. Practice makes perfect, and by refining your skills and using these strategies, you’ll dominate this challenging level in no time!
