Added DiffLines:
'''Basic Trope''': A "special" attack which is humorously ineffective.
* '''Straight''': Bob learns the FingerPokeOfDoom. When he uses it, the "Of Doom" part is missing and he just pokes his opponent.
* '''Exaggerated''': Bob learns the "Extended Finger Thrust of Hypercharged Ultra Ultimate Demise, Pain And Death." When he uses it, not only does he do nothing, he breaks his finger on the opponent's armor/hard muscle.
* '''Downplayed''': Bob learns a new attack. It works somewhat as advertised, but his instructor had exaggerated its effect.
* '''Justified''': ???
* '''Inverted''': HeartIsAnAwesomePower
* '''Subverted''': Bob uses an alleged FingerPokeOfDoom on Charlie. Charlie scoffs. Bob claims YouAreAlreadyDead...
* '''Double Subverted''': ...after the {{Beat}}, Charlie starts rolling on the floor laughing as if being tickled hard.
* '''Parodied''': ???
* '''Zig Zagged''': Bob uses an alleged FingerPokeOfDoom on Charlie. Charlie scoffs. Bob claims YouAreAlreadyDead. After the {{Beat}}, Charlie starts rolling on the floor laughing as if being tickled, and gasps out "Hah, some ultimate attack". Bob coldly tells him to wait. Charlie can't stop laughing harder and harder, and eventually dies laughing.

* '''Defied''': Bob asks for a demonstration before he learns the new attack. It's the FakeSpecialAttack, and he tells his teacher not to waste his time.
* '''Discussed''': "Nice fake attack, Bob. Got anything else up your sleeve?"
* '''Conversed''': "How much do you want to bet that Bob's new attack will do something stupid?"
* '''Deconstructed''': Bob realizes how stupid the attack is partway through learning it, and doesn't finish training it.
