Yes, this is known for quite some time now. This actually even works midscreen to some extent. If you end a combo with carefully delayed EX TF so that 3 hit whiff, the added one (EX) will restand your opponent. Althou it's super strict timing and usually not worth it (if you whiff 3rd hit your opponent won't be sent fullscreen which is usually a desired outcome in this variation).

As for the one you posted, it's situational. Used it like several times already, timing is pretty strict and it's not like you gonna rush down your oponnnent to the corner with Balanced Kenshi but again sometimes it's useful.

Anyway, thanks for posting.

Don't know if this is known, but found a bug with tremor. Based on what blocking animation he uses, he makes Kenshis b1 whiff.
In the video you clearly see this happening at the start. In the second half, during the pauses you can see the different blocking animations tremor is using.
Kenshi continues to get worse? lol

@Pan1cMode @Pig Of The Hut and whoever else plays this damn character

Already knew that, further more B1 based on animations whiffs on several crouching characters not only Tremor.

And he can't get any worse, since he is at the bottom.

Seems like Kenshi could use a little HGH himself.

For his eyes in particular.

Nah mainly his toolset. That injury he suffered during the Injustice Era preparing for MKX season was worse than Jamaal Charles torn ACL. He tried to come back early with the main roster but clearly is a shell of his former self. He can't even cover his zone without having speedy receivers run in it right after the snap and strong running backs knocking him down with ease. Had he waited to fully recover and arrive with the DLC like Tanya and Tremor he'd be much stronger this season. Instead of being noble and rushing back from injury he should have took the HGH Kung Lao offered him. You see how well the HGH that Liu sold Lao helped him recover from actual death injury, imagine if Kenshi had taken it.

I dunno man. If Kenshi could do it over I'm almost certain he'd have taken that HGH that Lao and Liu juiced up on.

All very true. Kenshi should NOT have declined when Roger Clemens offered to stick that mysterious needle in his bum

Sigh, I wish people had that sort of healthy skepticism when the deflategate reports came out, but it was the pats so everyone was thrilled to believe Mortensen!

Not trying to derail this thread btw, your manning gif just gave me the idea to insert "HGH" in place of "Nationwide" in that dumb yet catchy commercial song.

Information: The first hit of Kenjutsu's EX Spinning Blade did not hit Jason while he was in the Tight Squeeze (non-EX) command grab animation. Both attacks whiff, Jason blocks the other two Spinning Blade hits, and (not shown in the gif) the utterly bewildered Kenshi player gets hit by a follow-up command grab.

May as well delete Kenshi from the game at this point. Right?

If you mean Tremor, I agree xD

 

[xInfra Deadx]

Nope.

 

[ismael4790]

Nope.

I read "him" instead of "Kenshi". Maybe it's my love for the character xD

 

[Pterodactyl]

I forgot how much fun Kenjutsu was.

I haven't had any major problems with it since it was lass buffed, but I look forward to at least a few buffs come KP2.

 

[TerribleMatt]

don't know if anybody knows this yet but sub zero and possibly other characters can duck teleflurry while holding block. This entirely eliminates the mix up between spirit push and teleflurry at mid range.
