Tech - Goro Goro Anti-Wakeup corner setup

[Cage Redfield]

Credit to @EGP Wonder_Chef for originally finding this setup

So imagine that but optimized and done against more common/troublesome wakeups.... which brings us to this!



(dunno how tym deals with linking playlists)

I would've tested the entire cast but I got sucked into playing like 60+ games on chef's stream. Scorpion's EN Teleport was the single wakeup I tested that straight up beat this setup. Kitana's Assassin Strike can potentially fuck with it if you do any other normal that wasn't the one I used against it. So like yeah, corner game with Goro made slightly better and you don't have to try relying on kinda-works-but-not-always meaty 3D3.

And then he realized that nobody else plays Goro...

I like it.

I don't give a damn about it as an Unbreakable Sub-Zero, but I like it.

 

[Asodimazze]

I have been doing this for around 2 weeks honestly, so nothing new for me

I'm still trying to find what wakeups can be consistently stuffed using 3d3 though...it looks unreliable :/

Actually you do. That parry has startup and is going to lose to a meaty attack every Time.

Even EX?

Even EX?

Does regular parry beat ex punchwalk? Because Sub only has single hit moves you could just do ex punchwalk if you think they'll wake up, if parry doesn't beat armour.

Parry is 5 and 2 frames if I'm not mistaken.

Parry beats anything grounded.

Yeah but don't EX moves have invincibility frames?

Well why am I asking when I can try it myself lol. I'll test and tell you what happens.

If you are referring to Sonyas parry I would never recommend that move on wake up. slow start up. EX is I think 2 Frames faster.

I'm talking about Sub-Zero's parry. The EX one has a 2-frame startup.

 

[BunLantern]

This is probably the most helpful post on this forum right now and it's so under the radar lol. Been using it almost every match. Thanks.

Very good tech only problem is characters with perrys can realllly screw up goros game especially with the fact that just about all of his strings are highs and mids. thats the only thing to really look out for.
edit
Spoke to soon lol

 

[Pterodactyl]

Been doing this forever, didn't think much of it.

Cool that you're spreading the info though!

This is honestly one of Goro's best traits, he probably destroys wake-ups better than any other character in the game right now.

 

[RoboCop]

Have you had a chance to test it against Jacqui's MB.bf1? Since it's quick and passes through you, I was curious if this still beat it out. Also ggs yesterday!

 

[SPY]

I'm talking about Sub-Zero's parry. The EX one has a 2-frame startup.

From what I remember Sub's exParry had armor.

 

[DabJr 187]

oooh my god i didn't even know Goro got love on these discussion threads you dudes are awesome

cage you have a ps4 right? i believe i played you a day or two ago

 

[Mortal Komhat]

vs. Scorpion being EX teleport happy, you replace the EX Punchwalk for a EX Stomp. It's less damage but it has the added advantage of being a hard knockdown and you're near corner.

Either you armor the first hit and stomp them descending or you hit them out of the teleport and hit them for 14%. Is it optimal damage? Nope, but it defends vs. Teleport. This is just a way to stuff that shit out so you can maintain EX Punchwalk anti-wakeup.

 

[RyuKazuya]

wow nice i was using this also but without the b3. Goro has cool traps and setups ^^

 

[MasterZenith]

I don't understand what you are doing in that second playlist link. Just punchwalking?
