A very nooby question but...

[FixdSwine]

When knocked down on the floor, how do you prevent yourself from standing up? Also, what other options do you have when knocked down?

To stay down just push no buttons to just lay there, to roll back I believe tap either 1 or 2, I think both work, and each character can wake up with special moves. . . of course some being better then others depending on the situation.

Hold down to stay on the ground for a short time. You can also press a single button, such as Front punch of front kick and so on, when you are about to stand up and your character will roll backwards. And of course you can also do a wake up attack by inputting the command when you are about to stand up.

Er yeah, the hold down part.

Are there any attacks you can get his with while laying on the ground?

Also, can you wake up with an attack after holding down for however long you decide to hold it down for?

I know that you can be hit with low attacks while laying down. Though, you can block them. Not sure about having Wakeup options, though.

Yes, Mileena's back 2 is unblockable when laying as it hits overhead and opponents on the ground, not sure of any others. You can't use wakeup attacks after staying down.

Well, as long as they aren't holding down when it hits them, they can block it even if they're still on the ground.

Found out the hard way tonight that Retile's dash sweep will hit you while you're laying down.
