The source is me. Theres no way the window is the same in mk9. idc what anyone says. Because only in this game were teching a grab is an issue.

Okay then, a combination of anticipation and reaction. My point still stands though.
True, but it is so hard to recondition myself. Seems like every other fighting game has throw tech as the same buttons as throw. On reaction I always press throw.
Yeah, hitstun was the wrong word to use.
In other words a read like I said
I guess, I suppose what I meant was if you have a difficult to read opponent who mixes it up between mids, or oh and low, and grabs. Sometimes neutral ducking is too risky and just holding block and looking for a grab allows you to tech it on reaction. Online though it's a complete read, no reacting involved.In other words a read like I said
That would honestly make throws stronger lol. The way it is now you can option select tech throw with different pokes.
If you're poking you aren't getting thrown though?
Throws do randomly beat pokes sometimes for no reason, I got thrown out of Cage's D4 the other day. This wouldn't be a bad idea though as long as it teched both directions with the same button.
Online or offline?
It was actually offline while playing against a friend. I dunno what online would have to do with this situation either way though.
Asking because that means there are hitbox issues during animations where the body gets lowered. If it happened online we'd chalk it up to lag. Offline though, that's bad. I do know I throw Shinnok out of his teleport every fucking time in training mode, before he could land an njp or anything.
Well that's why I suggest hitting the button a couple times at least. It's not that much different than in SFIV doing the os for throw breaking. It's just that holding back in that game doubles as blocking. Whereas holding down and hitting a button doubles for getting out of pressure as well as throw breaking.
But when you think about it you only need to tech with the button closest to corner, because unless it kills them throwing out if the corner is a favour for you
I've given up already. So many people say that they can handle grabs with ease. I'm probably just doing something wrong. My opinions and thoughts don't matter here. Enjoy your free 12%.
I guess I have a advantage then. Sometimes I throw and forget to hold forward. Or I run and throw forgetting tutu let go of forward. Lol
People mashing low pokes deserve to be thrown, it's bad fundamentals, and a reasonable way to stop it.
If I was predictable with my low pokes, you'd just block and take me being -5+. Or low crush or just plain whiff punish. Personally irks me that it's a high but will beat how low moves.
Nobody abused them like some players do now in MKX even though the mechanics were pretty much the same. Maybe this means Mk9 wasn't that fleshed out at all?
