shin-shoryuken

(n.) The super-powerful form of Ryu's Shoryuken technique. When not used at extremely close range it deals mediocore damage, but if used at such a range it deals horrendously massive damage (Somewhere around 1/3 of a full health bar, on average).
"I was doing good, I almost had him beat, and then he busts out the Shin-shoryuken and whoops my sorry ass."
