What is Pressure Time in Street Fighter 6?
In Street Fighter 6, Pressure Time is a small window of opportunity to effectively counter your opponent’s attacks.
Pressure Time isn’t specifically a move or combo you can use, rather it is a timing that you need to gradually come to terms with and is displayed by the characters briefly glowing white.
For some characters, it can be seen during their blocks or when they are winding up their projectiles, so if you can close the gap and take advantage of their own attack, you can catch them off guard.

It is a fleeting opportunity but one that, if executed correctly, can deal some devastating damage. The best way to use Pressure Time is to gradually close in on your opponent. Once you control the space, you can adjust your attack style to make use of Pressure Time.
