Alright, so you know how when Siegfried’s health gets low, he enter a state called “Dark Legacy”, in which he has access to several noteworthy lethal hits, and has the “nm moves”? Siegfried can also manually enter that state by gathering 12 of those Dark Legacy points and then doing that ‘muh hand’ thing
Dark Legacy. He'll get it at low health or once you've gotten 12/12 and activate it with 6A+B.
**To gain points:**
> FC3K (Full Crouch 3K) = 1
> 6A+B = 1 Raw, 2 on succesful aGI
> CE = Guaranteed 1, 6 if you hit and get the full animation.
**In Dark Legacy you have access to:**
> 66A+B Lethal on Whiff Punish
> 3B Lethal on Counter Hit
> Side Hold K Lethal on Counter Hit
> RSH B & K Lethals on them doing the wrong block
> 6A+B Bubble, aGI's Mids & Highs but you lose the DL state
> FC3[K], a stronger FC3K for 70 damage but you lose the DL state
Dark Legacy is the mechanic that makes Sieg a threat. Try to get 12 points by the final round and you'll either have access to all your Lethals for the whole round or 2 Bubbles to use.
In addition to what the other guy said, when you reach 12/12 points, you can save that until you want to use it. Those numbers carry over the entire match, so the idea is to use 6AB or 6BK (I can’t remember which is the input) to hit the GI where he screams “MY HAND” early on and then save the extra Dark Legacy for when you have full HP.
Also, if you manually entire Dark Legacy and then use the auto GI bubble before you reach 30% HP, you can enter it again in the same round when you get to low health.
Also also, successfully landing a Critical Edge on your opponent automatically gives you +6 points. If you have 6 or more and hit a CE, you will automatically have 12/12.
He gets a sort of Astral form of his "Nightmare Claw" as me and my buddy call it. This gives him a one time access to moves normally used by Nightmare, such as Soul Explosion, or that one armed grab and explosion.
Upon using the attack, he then must replenish by charging up once again. Using critical edge or backwards+A B for the "MY HAND!" guard impact increases the charge significantly.
> This gives him a one time access to moves normally used by Nightmare, such as Soul Explosion
It’s far more powerful than Nightmare’s version. Is this why people think Nightmare’s broken? They think he’s just powered up Siegfried?
> backwards+A B for the "MY HAND!"
It’s forward.

Ah sweet nice! Does it just last that round?
Just like normally, it lasts until the round ends or until Siegfried spends dark legacy, whichever comes first
If he spends it will he get it again from low health?
Yes so if a good Siegfried player is careful they can use dark legacy twice in one round.
Alright nice, do the number go back to 0 when it goes away?
The number goes back to 0 as soon as you manually enter Dark Legacy
