Slide Overview
Slide is a long-range Low attack that sends your character sliding feet-first at the opponent. It is a move shared by Law, Lee, and Shaheen, who are often referred to as "Slide Characters." It is a low that knocks down on hit, side-swaps, and requires the opponent to use a specific float combo to punish.
-
Law's Slide
-
Lee's Slide, not to be confused with his Mist Step 3+4 (MS.3+4)
-
Shaheen's Slide - Shaheen enters his "Stealth Step" (SNK) stance after his Slide successfully connects with the opponent
Characters with a Slide can often form a game plan around it by mixing it up with their other moves that can be done from While Standing, like Law's ws1,2 or Lee's ws2,3, or from Full Crouch like their hopkicks.

Shaheen's hopkick (u+4 or uf+4)
How To Slide
The input is df,d,df+3 while in Full Crouch.
Slide is a move that can only be done while you are in Full Crouch (FC for short), which means you need to be crouching for at least 11 frames in total before your Slide will come out. If the input is done too quickly then your character will just do FC3 instead. You can utilize Instant Full Crouch (iFC) techniques, like using the first input of Slide to buffer the full crouch or inputting d/b first, to ensure you were crouching long enough while still getting Slide out in a reasonably short amount of time.
When done as fast as possible, your command history would look similar to the following examples:
| Standing | |
| Full crouch | |
| Half crouch | |
| While standing |
Keep in mind that you can also hold down-back or down-forward for your crouch, or even perform Crouch Dashes to throw your opponent off before you finally Slide, so your inputs could also look something like this:
