Notes and Strategy

He would probably be harder then Von Kaiser if he didn't die to star punches so quickly and also didn't have so many Opportunities to get stars but he does so make him pay!

Star opportunities

• When he taunts punch him when he smiles
• Counter his jab with a left jab
• Counter his left hook with a left hook
• When he's reeling punch him for a star. (He reels after a combo or getting countered)

Knockdown opportunities

• When he taunts, use a star punch for a knockdown .
• When he's reeling hit him with a three star punch for a knockdown.

Challenges

• Land a 3 star punch and win the match.

You do not have to score the final blow with that punch, simply connect with one at least once in the match and then go on to win. See Star Opportunities for techniques on earning Stars, then be sure to connect a Three-Star at least once. Still using a Three-Star for the final blow allows for his humorous special KO animation.

• Discover 5 different ways to earn stars.

See Star Opportunities above for the techniques involved.

• TKO Disco Kid using only 6 punches.

He always starts the fight by taunting. Punch him and wait for his next Taunt and then star punch for the first knockdown. The second and third knockdowns can be much faster due the fact he does a hook before he taunts or two for the third one. Tbh this challenge for the most part is just waiting for him to Taunt.

• Left Hook: Disco Kid does a left hook.
• Jumping Jacks: Disco Kid does up to two jumping jacks and then does the same amount of right hooks.
• Taunt: Disco Kid rolls his fist like he's hitting a punching bag while looking at you and then smiles
• Disco Flurry: (Done only after getting knocked down at least once) Disco Kid rolls his fist like he's hitting a punching bag and says "I can teach you how to move!" and then does three very fast jabs.

Notes and Strategy

Disco Kid is back and with a new grove! He now dodges your attacks and then tries to counter. He also has two new attacks. Jumping Jacks is just hooks but to the right and his Disco Flurry needs good timing to be completely dodged. He still goes down to three star punches when reeling so keep that in mind.

Star opportunities

• Hit him in the head when he jabs.
• Hook him when he goes for a hook. (Haven't tried with his Jumping Jack hooks yet)
• Hit him when he smiles during his taunt.
• Hit him after he's done reeling.

Knockdown and Knockout Opportunities

• Hit him with a three star punch when he's reeling for a knockdown
• Hitting him with a three star punch as he's preparing his Disco Flurry is a One Hit KO

Challenges

• Win the light and evade EVERY Disco Flurry (3-Jab Combo).

This one is a bit hard to do simply due to timing. If you don't feel like dodging it you can One Hit KO him and it will still count

• Last a round... without getting hit!

You simply need to know his basic pattern and don't swipe at him too much. Just remember that you need to go to second round or it won't count.

• KO or TKO Disco Kid in less than 90 seconds!!

To do this one abuse the fact that he will try to hit you when you swipe at him and remember his KO and Knockdown methods (See Knockdown and Knockout Opportunities for more info).
