      People can create their own combos using Light, Medium, and Heavy attacks that can be stringed together in a particular structure. The combos have the same animations but can be longer or shorter depending on strength. Having to watch and learn both punch and kick sets. Combos can be broken if you know what kind of strength is being used and enter that same strength at the same time the attack connects. Guessing wrong or missing the timing will lock you into the combo. Breakers can also be also be countered be the attacker if they think you are going to try and break. If successful, the counter breaker will not only lock in their opponent but reset the combo gauge for additional damage to add up in said combo.
      In short, combat is constantly a mind game. Is he going to try to break? Should I counter break? What strength are they using? Is it safe to break? Should I take the damage or risk even greater damage? This is not going into how a combo structure works. Specials. Combat styles. Potential damage vs regular. But this is basically what we are watching and paying attention to. The mind games between characters and players
