Of course no one is going to block on reaction in 7 frames; the test times your reaction from when the NPC presses her button! Not when the signal for an overhead is given! It is important to differentiate between the two.

It is not (light flashes > press button) it's (light flashes > process stimulus > press button). It can be very close to how fighting games work but it depends on the situation; I have already given an example.
Very interesting; please post a link to the study. Anyways, the point I'm making is not that it can be done consistently; it's that it's possible for certain people to perform an anticipated reaction in 101 to 116ms.
Your example isn't a pure reaction though you're assuming someone is already blocking. And there's less information to process in that test than there is in a fighting game. You already know 100% what the correct response is to the stimulus. In a fighting game you're looking for multiple things at once(unless you're making a read) so a better test would be one with multiple lights each with a corresponding button on the right and a directional input on the left. I'd be willing to bet that the top reaction times double.
That is 100% false i personally did a Millia blocker test with Sonic a while back, and he averaged a consistant 20Frame Reaction time, and he was the Fastes of them all the others ranged from 21-27frame Reaction time.
I was right on my thoughts. This is from Guilty Gear. The male one is Sol Badguy. Tried arcade box on this Guilty Gear Xrd Revelation at my mate's house. Who's this chick there?i got 25 ill upload it soon, and thats not bad, the wole reason the Millia Blocker was made was because players on dustloop forums where claiming on Gulty Gear they could Block 20 frame moves and they said her 20 frame move was a wierd animation like a 16 frame move. so to put the players to the test they played this game, and was onlya llowed one attempt, of course players diod this test for a year afterwards and the fastes time recoerded was average of 18 Frames. and thats with a full Year Of Practice with players who played this game.

for my first time today that is a very good Score, some players average 29 on Dust Loop forums.
I'm fine with my score, because i know how the brain works after reading some test oin the subject, and that is literally better than 90% of average Humans. im doing that in 1/4th the time most people react in car accidents.
Post yours, and remember when we block its mostly off Reads, like what players usually do and telegraphed moves they don't even realize they do, like whan that sub Zero always does D4 into B2 without thinking, and im able to block a 10 Frame Move on reaction. i know my Reads are very good so it compensates for those 4 to 5 frames i lack
I couldn't have said it any better
you can do it without motion joy and use keyboard, some are just wanting to use there hitbox and all. just use keyboard. i use spacebar, anykey will work.
are you using the light background/theme? i have the normal default black dark theme. I suggest that. I along with like 5 other members use bright font. I have problems seeing the grey so thats why do what i do. Sorry if it hurts your eyes, really am, but maybe you can try the dark theme? or turn your brightness down?
And yeah, we have had this thread like 20 something times, since ive been on here since 2011 or 2013. and its like even though its available in threads and deep in the forum others forget about it and neglect the Search tool.
should be in account settings and if its not, ask Moderator, @Alien Substance @Tim Static and they can Delete it for you @PND_Ketchup
In my example you already know 100% what the correct response is to the stimulus. You are already in block-stun waiting for one signal (the point at which you know it's a low attack) from there you have only one response (press down). If you do not get signaled, you do not press down. This is a near identical situation to the green light test. It is an anticipated reaction where you either press the button or don't depending on what you observe. It is situational and does not apply to every reaction that can be made in a fighting game. It applies specifically to blocked strings that are negative on block and cancel into either a low or overhead attack while having a noticeable tell at least 8 frames before either of the moves hit.
yeah but you're also looking for staggers, throws, and cancels in block stun.
that is 6 frames. allthough its possible to react to that in other aspects or situations, a fighting game its not possible for the Brain to Register what the eyes are seeing For Example: An overhead move compared to Throw, Low high Mid Backdash in otherwords several options, and React to said Overhead and then Block it according ly in only 6-9 frames let alone be able to block 15 frame moves on pure reaction. you can see that in the Millia blocker i posted above.
Every hit of the string is -20 so stagger pressure is irrelevent. there is no throw that the string can be canceled into, only mid overhead or low attacks. I never said this applies to every situation nor did I say that any move with 7 frames of animation can be blocked on reaction. This seems to be communication breakdown; you don't seem to understand the point I am making and are arguing against points I never made.
theres no communication breakdown. You're saying it's possible for some humans to block a 7 frame mixup on reaction in ideal circumstances. I'm saying that all the available data in fighting games suggests otherwise. Even adding frames for input delay/monitor lag no human in the situation you're presenting would be able to accurately and consistently block aliens rekka mixups, and those are 17/18 frames.
