these games are literally nothing but boxes of 2d coordinates with art draw/rendered out in place of the actual boxes.

you should probably care, if you know, you actually care at all.

Yeah I know but I have a hard time getting mad at pictures of hitboxes even when they're dumb as hell

Hardest thing to learn is back dash cancels and those aren't really that hard at all, especially if you have a stick. His combos are dead loving easy. Always be looking for chances to 6p or 6h counter hit.

do you mean cancelling into a backdash from a move to be safe or out of one to do a move to punish someone coming forward?

last gg post in this thread from me *ominously* for now *ominously*

I mean cancelling his back dash into a jump and cancelling that jump into a special move. This allows you to carry the six frames of invulnerability from his dash over into the special move you do.

Speaking from being on the receiving end of that, yes, you can get 3 and 4 frame moves afterward. That's enough for cancel into EX hadoukens, shoryukens, and v-trigger activations.

Anyone got any tips for Alex? I'm playing a mirror with a friend of mine and we usually double timeout as despite our best efforts we can't get any hitboxes to overlap with hurtboxes. Someone please help

Laura question.

So I've learned to follow up my command throws with LP Elbow as a meaty and that screws up a lot of people. Once they learn and start block what are my options that let me still meaty the poo poo out of them? As far as I can tell, forward dash throw doesn't put me in range.

Also a similar question for my followup after Forward throw. Forward HP elbow is my usual meaty followup, but is there anything I can do when they start blocking it? My plan so far has been to hit the forward elbow and then followup with LP command throw.

Block elbow will put you at disadvantage. You now have to guess

Alternatively instead of lp elbow you can do s.HK , fish for a counter hit and go into mp elbow.
