Hello everyone, today I bring you a tutorial on how to find your inputs when they are reversed as Jason, as well as a universal armored OS for him.
What are the reversed inputs?
Credit to SonicFox for posting the reversed inputs during Kombat Cup after his match vs Cycl6ne during Week 10. He did a Jason mirror and after the match posted the reversed control patterns in the chat, saying, "I only need to find 1 input and I'm good". I screenshot the chat cause I never knew the reversed controls and I knew that would come in handy later. I'm sure it was found elsewhere but for me that's how I found out. So thank you Sonic.
There are 3 combinations (following the regular 1,2,3,4 pattern):
-2,1,4,3
-3,4,1,2
-4,3,2,1
How should I find my inputs?
Your best option is to crouch (holding up, directions are also reversed) and hit your regular 2 button. This is because according to the reversed control schemes above, your 2 button will never be an uppercut, and doing a crouched normal in the 2 position will give a different crouched normal, all which recover faster than your uppercut, making this reliable. Then deduce which reversed control pattern you have.
So say you hit crouch 2, and you performed what would usually be your crouched 4. Your control scheme would then be 3,4,2,1.
Universal Armored Option Select as Jason
When your controls are reversed, performing the input EX UFB4 will give an armored attack regardless of how your controls are reversed and this works for all his variations. For Unstoppable/Relentless, you'll get EX Clothesline/Squeeze/Backbreaker, and for Slasher you'll get EX Shoulder/Slash/Choke. Don't ask me how it gives you choke, it surprisingly just does lol. In the video this input is demonstrated at 2:57. Just be careful doing this midscreen, especially as Slasher.
