When the opponent is attacking his character, the player can press forward or down to parry the attack and put the opponent in an easy position to counterattack. However, this is a very difficult technique because the player must guess the intention as well as react quickly and accurately.

A new feature in Street Fighter III is Super Art, a powerful move similar to Super Combo. Each character has 3 different super powers and will be selected when the player chooses the character.

When the super boxing column is full, the player can unleash the super spell.
