To do this, Teleport is required. When you are far away from your opponent, lock on to them and start your special technique. Immediately before you launch it, press R2 to teleport directly next to your opponent. A better way to do this is if you have uppercut; hit you opponent into the air, start your technique, and teleport right next to them. By doing this you will have a clear shot and should not miss. This is a great way to defeat Bosses and can be done be anyone.
