  - Zangief cannot Backstep or Long Jump backwards.
  - Using the Advancing Guard doesn't reduce the amount of damage
    taken; it only attempts to create more distance between you and
    your opponent.  It's wise to not always use it as it's possible
    to be hit by an attack as you recover from pushing yourself forward.
  - You can Tech. Hit (Ukemi), out of almost any throw in the game,
    including ground and air throws, as well as:
        - Hulk's Gamma Tornado
        - Spider-Man's Web Throw
        - Zangief's Flying Powerbomb / Air Spinning Piledriver
        - Zangief's Running Throw (either version)
 - All of the "Variable" moves will switch your active character with
   your partner when the move finishes, except the Variable Assist.
   In the case of the Variable Combination and Variable Cross, you may
   not switch characters if the incoming ally is hit.
 - Remember that the Variable Assist can be used a certain number of
   times per battle, depending on the character.  So be careful and
   don't waste this move if you can help it.
 - During the Variable Cross, both characters will come on screen and
   remain there for a while.  You can control both of them during this time,
   and you'll have an infinite Hyper Combo bar for the duration of the
   Variable Cross.
