Super Canceling is new to the King of Fighters series, but has been around in the fighting game world for quite some time. Super Canceling can best be described as canceling a move into a DM / SDM. It may sound utterly overpowering and easy to do, however these thoughts are about the exact opposite of Super Canceling. Super Canceling in some cases requires precise timing. It is indeed quite powerful, but it takes 1 stock to cancel and 1 stock to perform the DM / SDM. So the disadvantages are as clear as the advantages.
 

Each character has at least one Super Cancel move, whereby when the character performs the move, it is cancelable into a DM or a SDM. It has been noticed that Super Canceling moves are not too difficult to perform and they deal very hard damage.

 

It is rare to find an opponent who Super Cancels a fair amount, which goes to show that most people who Super Cancel, it is for style and flashiness.
