Cool, other then holding and blocking wake-up kicks. Could you "meaty" them?
I haven't labbed this yet but some wake-ups have a lot of range so I have no clue, unfortunately. I would just stick to holding since it causes lots of damage.

Does anyone know how you avoid that weird laying down grab that the drunken master bitch does after he flops on the ground? lol

Well fuck my leg and call it Sally.

Thats NOT good. That kinda discourages trying new people...
Indeed, you need to feel pretty confident to try a new character.

Dash backwards when he's down XD (not sure if that works that well though) or, if you want to do it like a pro, to get out of any throw you have to press T right when they grab you and it works with all throws in the game except if you're airborne.

Backing up was what I was doing after I figured out that no matter what low attack I did would get grabbed anyway lol. But I was wondering if it was punishable.

So basically you either run away or tech the throw? I need to practice teching throws! Thank you :)

Yep, you can't really punish unless he whiffs completely which would mean you're far enough away.

That's great congrats :D which character are you playing with at the moment?

lol well... the ranking up didn't happen. Been getting vs better players now and losing.

But it was with Hitomi, because she has good buttons that don't require lots of the weird directional inputs. Playing tina at this current moment tho.

I'm glad this game got a Free-to-Play version, as I wasn't going to invest on the full-price game for it. So now I can play it with the few characters I wanted. However, I do kinda miss these two:

 
Im in C now fighting my way to B and people are totally now calling me out on my bullshit Bayman gimicks. I know what I need to do but fighting scrubs who have been free to offensive holds has taught me bad habbits I need to unlearn.

Nico was really strong.
This character makes me so fucking salty. Nico and Hayabusa

Yeah, the game was so promising and their story mode is a freaking train wreck.
This is why i kinda held off on buying the game because of shit like this. Regardless of how fun you think the game is, people who pay money for bullshit practices allow companies to keep doing it over and over and over. Speak with your wallets cuz obviously they only care about that all mighty dollar. And reading the comments is making me happy that most people are starting to call them on their shady tactics.

Momiji joins the roster September 19th.


One of the cooler characters from the Ninja Gaiden series who joined the DoA franchise, imo.
Whoa, that's pretty soon.

I miss playing the game. I was really into playing with combo routes, and the different stuff unique to the game. I was hoping I could play two games at once, but Mk had people and doa didn't. It just kind of faded away.

They also did everything they could do to damage the pc version after it came out.
