Same thing as beam it only reflects amped hit if you are out of range of first one. The boulder only reflects if you are at bounce range. Geyser second hit can't be blocked or jumped but earthquake first hit gets sent back.
Or because it wasn't thoroughly tested...
Rooflemonger also made a very complete one testing it against all the projectiles:
I think he didn't test Cassie's Flippin Out due to the fact that nobody should be using that move in the first place.
Ask and it shall be given to you. Well, not everything, but at least some testing against Cassie's strings and flippin'out:
Lets you plant your axe at one of 3 distances and call it back to your hand by pressing up+2. It only has a hitbox when returning, but it pops them up for meterless combo extensions, for example:
After command grab you can just dash and jump over and still be plus to get Oki. No need to spend the meter.
That crossup pressure is good shit. There's so much to do when +70. So many options.
Yeah, and when the opponent is conditioned to block on wake up you can start your pressure with F2121 mixups (F2121xxDB3, F2121xxbf1, regular string, F21 pseudo stagger, F214, etc). In addition, it is very easy to hit confirm the string, in order to avoid the command grab cancel if the first hit connects.
Could be useful in a close, down the wire match where they just want to kill you with an u3. You do that into 111 fatal blow to take the round.
I haven't gotten it plus enough that you can punish them in whiff recovery (have a similar setup with Skarlet and she can punish), but if they're gonna block then you have that juicy command grab. But, yea, just a little trick up the sleeve to be sparingly snuck in there somewhere.
How plus have you gotten it? Enough to guarantee a d1?
I only experimented with it until I could get the wake-up coming out the wrong direction; tried a little bit more to get a whiff punish but couldn't quite get it. You're plus enough for a fast button that'll hit if they mash but they can block. Blocking still dangerous against this guy because of this throw game plus the command grab in this variation.
Gonna be testing this tech to see if they can do anything about the buff with this setup, other than just blocking. Also keep in mind, for this setup specifically where you armor through the wakeup attack, the timing to combo punish it is pretty strict. If done too late they can just block it after they do the wakeup attack.
Does this remove their ability to WU 111(7f starter)? Is it timed specifically where they can only block or WU U+3?
They can wakeup 1 but you can amp buff then block it. Not the best setup but it’s something. Nightwolf has such horrible framedata that been trying to find good setups and strats otherwise he is not worth using unfortunately.
I guess its best to only combo if you see the flash otherwise I think its good to backfash to safety if possible and punish U3/U2/Froll maybe there is a timing like an OS to input someone for multiple options with the armor?
