General/Other - Commando Commando Variation Discussion Thread

Hello everyone, i'm a new kano player i want a pro advise about something i found.

F33 seem to be useless for a lot of people, but you can cancel it into Command Grab. So you can do F33 and go for the Rib breaker motion, if the opponent block you pressing 4 and your command grab wil catch him, if you hit with F33 just press 3 to confirm into kano's ball ( Rib Breaker and Ball finishing the same way by BF).

i found that with a little training you have enought time to see if it's hit/or block and to go for 4 or 3.

Block or Hit, your F33 will always lead you to damage the opponent.

I find it useful, and you ?

P.S: sorry for my bad english...

The problem with this string into command grab setup is that your opponent can armor, backdash, neutral duck or jump the command grab after blocking the first 2 hits and punish your whiff. Therefore, it's far from guaranteed command grab on block. On hit you do get the damage, but the string is just bad as it's slow and first hit is high. At high levels there is no reason to use this string, at lower levels you can get away with it.

Lol yep.
Can anyone give me advice for fighting black plus frames guy? That stupid pink shit is annoying as fuck. Why is it +7?
Ha. Well online its prolly hard. But when you see his arm pull back d4 him out of it. Then get your turn. You an parry alot of his stuff epscially if hes doing f21 for range and plus range. He does suffer from getting low profiled but when hes in your face it take more time to know when to poke or armor.im sure the other dudes prolly know what to do better than me though

Online sucks. Scorpion's F4 becomes a 50/50 option and people poke me out of my laser restand follow up even though I'm supposed to jail into s1 or b1.

With f33, once they expect the tick throw you can cancel into ex ball cancel to catch them trying to escape. I can't remember if f33 ex ball has a gap but I'm fairly sure it doesn't.

It's not a great guessing game but it's something.

Is it just me or is there like some strict timing after 32 EX NJP? I've dropped this set-up for so many times online over the past 5 days that I'm completely frazzled out.

What are you tring to do?
By the way, this variation ahs huge utility as a pocket character, you can really expose players with bad defense, or ancy normals choices. Parry parries alll weapon attacks, so long as they're attached to the opponent in some way.
Tyler "Diaphone" Kusich put Biohazrd into losers with it at Buffalo Brawl in an extremely hype 2-1 match. Commando Kano's command grab beat Ruthless Ferra/Torr's on a trade twice in a row, it's an interesting property.

I wouldn't bother with NJP after the launch. IIRC, you only get 1% damage increase for a timing that is much more difficult to land.

Yeah kinda. I wouldn't even use that move anyway unless it gets buffed, ex ball cancel combos do more damage/scale less.

hey guys im trying to learn some commando kano but it seems like all his good combos require a EX BF3 cancel into either JIP or NJP. well this seems hard AF to pull off. any tips and do you recommend JIP or NJP as an easier option. i can get 5% more off NJP but if its less reliable i will settle for JIP

Okay here's a preview on some OS tech I'm working on with Commando Kano

I'll be posting a full thread with a full video on how and why it works and other option when the PSN is back up and a few other cool things

But sure I might as well post a glimpse to give people an idea
