--KOF--
MAX Activation: An ability exclusive to the KOF series, where your character enters a glowing state. This allows you to use a desperation move without consuming a portion of your gauge. The use of powered-up DMs also becomes possible.
Fallbreaker/Safe Landing/Ukemi: A technique that makes your character roll (rather than fall) upon meeting the ground. This is deemed a ground escape in the MvC series.
max activation varies a lot in kof, in 2k it can hit and juggle oponents, in 2002 youc an perform it while hitting with basic or adv attacks, at the cost of one extra stock, but allowing you for better combos, let's not mention it's effects, that change even more.
safe landing in kof 11 has a variant in which you can roll forward.
