A Stock Pose common in video games, covers, and art. It features one character about to exchange blows with another one; the angle doesn't matter, but it's usually shot Over the Shoulder. One side typically looks as if it has an advantage. Other instances feature a sense of symmetry by having the characters balance each other out; whether by having a superior-looking weapon against an intimidating looking "partner", or by having both look like they can kick each other's butt. This isn't limited to covers and still art. Motion pictures can also make use of this in the form of Hit Stop, where instead of Overcranking and stopping on impact, they stop it when they're about to hit. Thematically, it emphasizes impending conflict or battle. Sometimes Rule of Cool applies when the battle is ongoing and the fighters are about to unleash fiercer blows to each other. Closely related to Charge-into-Combat Cut, but instead of cutting into something else, it simply just cuts to end scene altogether if it does cut after the pre-clash. See also Mirrored Confrontation Shot, which is similarly about impending conflict, contrast with Fearful Symmetry, where the participants are already at it. Related to Hit Stop, which is used for emphasizing impact. Compare Versus Character Splash, where character portraits juxtaposed to each others are used as prelude to a fight in Video Games. |

Monster Hunter. The covers always feature a Hunter using a Greatsword about to clash with whatever the flagship monster of that game is, background is usually inconsequential (MH:Freedom for one uses a plain white frame and a small circular background). | |

In For Honor, before a multiplayer match the two teams will be shown facing off with each other, adopting different poses whether they are on your side or the enemy's, with the player's hero always being at the front. When the match begins, both sides leap at each other right before cutting to the battlefield. | |

Final Fantasy XIV does this in Stormblood to replicate the trailer duel that the Warrior of Light has with Lyse atop the statue of Rhalgr the Destroyer in Rhalgr's Reach. During the Level 80 Monk quest in Shadowbringers, your Monk trainer and sworn brother, Widargelt, takes her on as a new student to start rebuilding the Fist of Rhalgr and to also give her Boxing Lessons for Superman. | |

This can happen in-game in Tekken 7. If you and your opponent are closing in on each other at the same time and the next hit will end the round for one or both characters, the action will slow down so you can take in who lands the deciding hit. | |

Tekken: From Tekken 6 and onwards, the Namco Bandai logo shows Jin and Kazuya about Cross Counter before the screen turns black at the last second. In Tekken Tag Tournament 2, this also happens to be their special tag winning pose. This can happen in-game in Tekken 7. If you and your opponent are closing in on each other at the same time and the next hit will end the round for one or both characters, the action will slow down so you can take in who lands the deciding hit. |

Virtua Fighter: A downplayed version (due to it being a Long Shot) appears in the fifth installment between Eileen and El Blaze.◊ where we get an half non-Evil Overlooker in the background and the rest of the cast in the middleground spectating the fight. The Virtua Fighter 5 opening features dozens of character match ups. |

A terrifying one occurs at the end of Chapter 20 of Star Wars: Clone Wars, featuring Master Ki-Adi Mundi facing off against experienced Jedi-killer General Grievous. Grievous leaps at him, wielding three lightsabers simultaneously; Ki-Adi plants one foot behind and prepares to engage him. End of the season. | |
