Every aura farming move, explained (6-7, mewing, Siuuu, boat kid and 40 more)

The complete list of moves used in aura battles, with what each one looks like, where it came from, and how much aura it's worth. From the sigma stare to the sandal lasso.

An aura battle is only as good as your vocabulary. These are the moves that show up in street battles from Mexico City to Madrid and in the edits that came before them, grouped by type. Almost every one is performed by the 3D fighters in the Aura Battles game (where the street name belongs to a show, a brand or a person, the game uses its own name, given in brackets), and the rarity tells you how it looks, never how strong it is.

Stares and stillness

• Sigma stare (rare): unsmiling, unbroken eye contact straight into the camera. From the "sigma" edit genre of 2021 onward.
• Lightskin stare (uncommon): furrowed brows, pursed lips, piercing eyes. A Vine-era face that TikTok revived in 2021.
• Gen Z stare (rare): blank, unbroken, mildly terrifying to millennials.
• Piccolo (epic; in the game: Arms Crossed): arms crossed, cape blowing, zero reaction while everyone else panics. From the Dragon Ball edits that defined "aura farming" in late 2024.
• Cinematic sip (uncommon): sip the coffee, look at the horizon, hold it.
• Look away (uncommon): eyes to the side or down. They don't deserve eye contact.
• Eye roll (common): eyes up, slight smile.

Gestures

• 6-7 (rare): palms down, hands wobbling side to side at chest height, "más o menos". From Skrilla's "Doot Doot (6 7)" and LaMelo Ball edits. The full story of 6-7.
• Mewing (uncommon): jaw forward, tongue to the palate, a finger tracing the jawline, sometimes a "shh". Why mewing is in aura battles.
• Shhh (common): finger to the lips. The crowd goes quiet.
• Chin touch (common): fingers to the chin, thinking about nothing.
• Laced fingers (common): hands behind the head, chest open.
• The snap (uncommon): one snap. The lights change.
• Shades adjust (common): push the sunglasses up. Say nothing.
• The shrug (common): shoulders up, palms out, couldn't care less.
• Perfume spray (uncommon): two sprays "para elevar el aura". Contestants really bring bottles.
• Grape shake (rare): shake a bunch of grapes. The Duke Dennis clip that named the whole thing in September 2024.
• Over 9000 (rare): crush the scouter. Dragon Ball Z.

Walks

• Aura walk (rare): slow, straight back, eyes forward. "Caminar en cámara lenta."
• Rain walk (rare): walk in the rain, no umbrella, never had one.
• Walk off (rare): turn, leave, never look back.
• Mog (rare): stand taller, look down, loom. From "mogging".

Sports celebrations

• Siuuu (epic): Cristiano Ronaldo's jump, spin, arms down. Shout it.
• Messi (epic; in the game: Ear Cup): hands to the ears. Hear that? That's aura.
• The silencer (rare): LeBron's three floor-pushes, chest tap, scream.

Dances and emotes

• Griddy (rare): heel taps and glasses hands. Allen Davis, 2018, via the NFL and Fortnite.
• The Floss (rare): arms swing one way, hips the other. Backpack Kid, 2017.
• Boat kid (epic): one arm forward, the other sweeps under, stone face. Rayyan Arkan Dikha.
• Orange Justice, Boogie Down, Hype, Default Dance, L Dance, Dab (common to uncommon; in the game the first three dance names become Hip Swing, The Boogie and Lobby Dance): the video-game emote canon. The dab is dangerous in 2026.
• Stinky leg (uncommon): shake the leg like something smells.
• Hop kick (uncommon): hop on one leg, little kick at the end. Seen in Mexico City finals.
• Push-ups (uncommon): drop and give them five, mid-battle. Also seen in Mexico City.

Anime power moves

• Domain Expansion (legendary; in the game: World Shift): Gojo's hand sign, held. The world changes.
• Hollow Purple (legendary; in the game: Void Orb): circle the hands, blue meets red.
• Power Up (legendary): scream, hair goes gold, rocks float. Super Saiyan, the visual root of "aura".
• Arise (legendary): hand out, shadows stand up. Solo Leveling.
• Spirit pressure (epic): Bleach's reiatsu. Everyone kneels.
• Genjutsu (epic; in the game: Mind Trap): Itachi eye contact. They're already in it.

Bits and props

• Sandal lasso (epic): spin the chancla overhead and lasso your opponent. Kaled Rosales, 16, won at Bellas Artes with it in August 2026.
• Spider roll (rare): forward roll, land in the crouch. A Spider-Man cosplayer did this at Monumento a la Revolución.
• Force close (rare): close the door with the Force. The button was right there. Obi-Wan.
• Business man, Shy guy (common): TikTok photo poses that migrated into battles.
• Let him cook (uncommon): stir the pot. He's cooking.

How moves are used in the game

In Aura Battles you bring a set of 8 moves into a match, and each move has a size from 1 to 4 (light, medium, big, massive) and one effect, one line long. Every round one fighter leads with a move and the other answers it; both fighters perform what they played, and the bigger move takes the pot. What you see is style: each of the 24 fighters performs the moves its own way, so the same effect can look like a Siuuu on one fighter and a moonwalk on another.

So a move's rarity is how it looks, never how much it is worth. A massive beats a big whatever it looks like, and every effect is earned by playing, never bought. Your first battles hand you a new move each time. The full rules are in the game guide; start a battle and build your set.

FAQ

What is the most popular aura farming move?

In 2026 street battles, the 6-7 gesture, mewing and Ronaldo's Siuuu appear in almost every report. Online, the boat kid dance and the Piccolo stance dominate.

What is the hardest aura move?

Stillness. Holding a stare or the Piccolo without breaking is harder than any dance, because laughing loses instantly.

Can I invent my own aura move?

Yes, and organised events reward creativity. A frog costume with a giant clog and a sandal lasso both won rounds in Mexico City.
