Disco Kid's got just two attacks backed up by two different stylish poses. Reacting to his attacks is pretty easy as he gives plenty of warning as to which attack he'll throw. If Disco is waiting with his hands pointing to your right, he'll throw a right straight, and if he's standing with his hands pointing to your left he'll launch a left hook. Pay attention to his shifting body position to anticipate which attack he'll throw.

When Disco does either one of his poses (he starts with his disco pose at the beginning of every round), you can tag him in the face for an easily earned star. The poses also leave Disco vulnerable to instant knockdowns by way of a star attack. Taking advantage of Disco during his poses is key, as you can use the poses to TKO Disco Kid with just six punches. And for a difficult-to-find way to earn a star, dodge an attack and hit him five times in the head. As he recoils after the fifth hit, you can tag him with another right jab that can earn you a star with the right timing.

Right Straight

Disco Kid shifts to your left and then follows with a quick right straight. You can respond to this attack anyway you want to. It's pretty easy to counter with any left punch, which will yield a star. If you attempt to counter with any right punch you'll whiff and take Disco's shot. Because Disco Kid's only other attack can also be dodged with a right dodge, you should use right dodges if you want to dodge either attack, just to remove possible room for error.

Left Hook

For this attack, Disco ducks down far to your right and usually says, "Here it comes!" You can counter the attack with any right punch to earn a stara left punch will whiff. The timing for the counter is a bit tougher than the timing for Disco Kid's right straight.

Disco Pose

This is the first of Disco Kid's two poses, both of which act basically the same. Disco poses with his two arms out and his teeth sparkle, which is your cue to punch him in the face. Land any jab to Disco Kid's face just after his teeth sparkle to earn a star. Or, if you've already got a star, you can nail Disco with a star punch after his teeth sparkle for an instant knockdown. If you punch Disco Kid before his teeth sparkle, you'll connect the hit but won't get the bonus effect of a star or an instant knockdown.

Taunt

This is the second of Disco Kid's two poses, both of which act basically the same. Disco poses with his hand behind his head and smiles as his teeth sparkle, which is your...
