Breakthrough Freddy Krueger Meter Building Data

[Aidan]

This is a continuation of my Meter Building project for all of the characters. This data gives you the basic tools for perfecting your meter game, so that's why there are only basic combos and specials. For block strings or more advanced combos you need to do the math yourself. Check out the General Meter Building Data Information.​

​

For All blocked normals and specials, they all build 8.996212121% (for simplicity 8.996%) of meter per hit. So if you hit someone with 334 on block you build 26.988% because they were hit by 3 normals.​

​

For blocked specials, you build meter on the initial use of the special and the extra meter because it was blocked. For example, if you use Glove Toss you build the initial 5.989% of meter, but if it hits a blocking opponent then you add 8.996% which results in 14.93% of meter build.​

​

This applies to all characters so Cyrax or Quan Chi for example build the same 8.996% on block.​

​

There is no initial gain from EX attacks.​

​

You also build meter by taking damage.
It takes 48% damage to build one bar.
This general information will tell you specifically how much build by the amount of damage you take.
You don't build meter when taking block chip damage.

Now for Freddy Krueger's data:

​

​

Thank you pulsiondemeurte for pointing this out.​

​

Blocked Normals​

Single hit normals (1, 2, 3, b4, etc.) - 8.996%, takes 11.11 for 1 bar​

111 - 26.988%, takes 3.7 for 1 bar​

b122 - 26.988%, takes 3.7 for 1 bar​

b12u1 - 26.988%, takes 3.7 for 1 bar​

221+2 - 26.988%, takes 3.7 for 1 bar​

f21b3 - 26.988%, takes 3.7 for 1 bar​

f214 - 26.988%, takes 3.7 for 1 bar​

b24 - 17.992%, takes 5.55 for 1 bar​

33 - 17.992%, takes 5.55 for 1 bar​

b33 - 17.992%, takes 5.55 for 1 bar​

f43 - 17.992%, takes 5.55 for 1 bar​

f421 - 26.988%, takes 3.7 for 1 bar​

​

Note: When it says "takes 5.55 for 1 bar" for example, this is an EXACT measurement to fill your bar up to EXACTLY 100%. 6 of these blocked attacks will give you 105% or 110%, but for the sake of depth the decimals are included.​

Great job!. Do you have the NMS meter data?, is very important because NMS can be canceled with special moves for extra meter. Maybe you forget to post it.

NMS does not give you any initial meter since it is not a special.

 

[pulsiondemuerte]

Really?. Damn! I got to check it out!!!

 

[Aidan]

Hold on. Do you mean like a blocked NMS2 cancels into a special? I don't know Freddy at all but if that is the case then he builds 8.999% off a blocked NMS attack and he gets meter from the special.

 

[pulsiondemuerte]

Nightmare Stance - The Nightmare Stance, or NMS, is one of Freddy's best tools because Freddy steps back and crouches. NMS builds meter, but you cannot block while in NMS. You can only block after canceling NMS with a front- or backdash. However, NMS gives Freddy access to three new attacks: 1, a safe launcher, 2, a safe overhead, and 3, a safe low attack. Each attack has its uses, especially in some match ups. In addition, NMS allows you to perform any special move, making NMS xx GT very powerful. NMS xx GT is basically a backdash fireball that builds double the meter and makes jumping attacks whiff. NMS xx GT also tends to AA a lot because of its slower start up, particularly when you train your opponent to jump a lot of GTs. Knowing how to use NMS correctly is key if you want to win with Freddy.

I mean this, according to m2dave strategy guide. I don't know Freddy too. I'm trying to learn.

qweeler, great job I've been working on something like this but you presented it better.

pulsiondemuerte NMS takes 27 to get one bar of meter so 3.703% of one bar of meter is gained each time you enter NMS, normals out of it doesn't build meter, any special out of it builds its normal amount.

The most important thing to take away from this is how much meter you build with his projectiles on hit and block. To give an idea Freddy takes 17 unblocked glove tosses for one bar of meter versus Sub-Zero freeze takes 27 unblocked for one bar. The enhanced ground spike is vital to his game, it can double a combo %. If you think you can make them block, always throw something at them.

I'm going to start a new thread for combos with damage/chip damage as I've been working on that lately as well.

 

[Aidan]

There, fixed it and credited you. Thanks for the info.

Bump for update

 

[AK Vip3r]
