Question - Cassie Cage f3 option select question

[WreQMode1911]

I've seen videos on it I'm just completely clueless to its benefits. It looks like another blocked combo with f34 or any other f3, db2. Putting in extra inputs is beneficial to me how during a match?

option select = one input, same timing , multiple results.

So f3 db2 is what leads to your combo right. That's the ideal situation but it's unsafe, meaning if you just do that expecting it to hit and they block you get punished for it. Now f34 only does 18% on hit so you'd rather hit your combo rather than just doing f34 every time, however it is safe (0 on block) so on block it's way better to do f34. The option select takes away your guess, so you can put in the same command and get the best case scenario whether they block it or if it hits them (if they block you get your safe string, if it hits you get your combo opportunity).

Thanks guys! So for the Hollywood variation, what's the f3 option select input?

Is it f3, db2? Or am I hitting f34, db2?

You input f3 db2/4 then a direction like forward or up. It is pretty strict though. Go to the cassie cage beginners guide for some tips. I can't get it 100% yet.
