Sweet Jax and MKX is starting to come together I understanding the game better and playing better.

Closing out rounds with EX Ground Pound (corner):

After any string into jab loops, after 3-4 reps depending on the starter, immediately d2 and EX Ground Pound for a mostly unavoidable 13% meaty. Great for ending a round if a Gotcha / EX Gotcha won't quite do the trick.

This trades with most armored moves for the 13% free, but things like D'vorah's X-Ray will clear it cleanly. Know what characters can reversal out of this before going for it, but it's pretty dirty.

Shades of MK9??

Are there any practical use for Wrestler's two grab strings? (f3 or f4 1+3)

I think there should be an individual thread for discussing variation specific tools and strategy. I have some ideas but won't be able to lab until nex Wednesday or so. I'll make the thread then if it's not already a thing

Anyone else down?

Tick into command throw, side switch, cancel into gotcha to make yourself safe, or EW. You can go for overhead dash punch if you're feeling ballsy.

Yeah just realized you could tick f3/f4. So then they have to guess between the command throw or if they decide to dash out but get hit with the f4 string grab. I'm trying to get the ai to jump back but its not in the settings to see if they get hit with the string grab if they jump out

It helps me when I do the tiger knee motion kinda. I roll from down to back then press forward

 

[AcMilan91]

difference between f4 and f3 is?

 

[tjcombowins]

Great video my friend.

 

[chrisofrays]

i played against someone who chose Pumped Up and just spammed energy wave and dash punch. the dash punch seemed safe on block and the projectiles would keep me in block stun for way too long i pretty much could not dash in between shots and had to jump which didnt end well lol. anybody else run into something like this?

 

[Pterodactyl]

I'm pretty sure you can duck under the energy waves, so you can block one move forward and crouch.

When you get in dash punch range just be patient, it recovers fast but blocking it is better than eating a punch trying to attack him right away.

 

[AcMilan91]

Guys do u use negative edge,and other option about precision specials? I dont understand those?

That's not a Tiger Knee motion though.

I tried to roll from down to back then hit forward still not consistent, it seems actually hitting, d,b,f works more -- but that's not nearly as quick or easy as being able to roll to back then hit forward.

My bad thats what I thought it was called, its easier for me to roll it though. I guess I shoulda said hcbf?

So you do an entire half circle back then forward?

Yeah that works for me

 

[Undeadjim]

Took me a while to find a character I truly enjoy learning the game with and I'd like to thank you all for the tech posted in this thread/forum, going to look over it all tomorrow! Hopefully I will be able to contribute something of my own soon enough.

 

[SixShooter]

Your thoughts on f2,1 beiing +17 on hit? You can check them afterwards with 11, option select-b2, 3f4, etc. Or even 2,3xxOH ex dashpunch if you are feeling ballsy for a full combo. Sets up a nice mix-up IMO. Don't think that they can back dash or armor-through.

 

[chrisofrays]

With negative edge turned off I cant do a dashpunch after a B3,4,EN overhead dash. Its a shame cause its a handy midscreen combo and I want to take advantage of his D4 shenanigans

 

[Drecker]

Fun fact: b3,4 xx Overhead Punch whiffs on Goro.

Comboing after needs to be b34 xx bf4, 11 (continue).

One of the few characters you'd think nothing would whiff on. Good catch.
