Can you name all Izuna Drops in FGs?

[hikarutilmitt]

That’s why the video results (I’m at work, so I can only assume) show Hayabusa instead of Vega. It’s just more popular and, admittedly, a lot cooler looking.

Can’t forget Rock Lee in all those Naruto fighting games.

Best Izuna Drop imo.

Well, my point is that all special moves of same type should be called by universal term, which should not be confused with names of any of those moves.

Example:
Ryu’s Hadouken - a projectile (self-explanatory)
Guile’s Sonic Boom - a projectile (self-explanatory)
Ryu’s Shoryuken - an anti-air move (upward-aimed move to counter jump-ins)
Haohmaru’s Kogetsuzan - an anti-air move (upward-aimed move to counter jump-ins)
Raiden’s Torpedo - a forward dive (he dives forward to attack)
Dictator’s Psycho Crusher - a spinning forward dive (he dives forward to attack, and spins during that)
Claw’s Izuna Drop - a spinning piledriver (term from wrestling - a move that takes opponent into air, then drives his head into ground, spinning in process. It doesnt matters how attacker’s body is positioned, since term piledriver is used for any type of move described above. There are many kinds of piledrivers, which all drive opponent’s head into ground from some height)
Hanzo’s Shrike Drop - a spinning piledriver (term from wrestling - a move that takes opponent into air, then drives his head into ground, spinning in process. It doesnt matters how attacker’s body is positioned, since term piledriver is used for any type of move described above. There are many kinds of piledrivers, which all drive opponent’s head into ground from some height)

Now compare those explanations to this:

Ryu’s Hadouken - a hadouken
Guile’s Sonic Boom - a hadouken
Ryu’s Shoryuken - a shoryuken
Haohmaru’s Kogetsuzan - ashoryuken
Raiden’s Torpedo - a torpedo
Dictator’s Psycho Crusher - a spinning torpedo
Claw’s Izuna Drop - an izuna drop (although not self-explanatory, I will take a guess that all moves that drop opponent from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Izuna belong to this category)
Hanzo’s Shrike Drop - an izuna drop

or

Guile’s Sonic Boom - a sonic boom
Ryu’s Hadouken - a sonic boom
Haohmaru’s Kogetsuzan - a kogetsuzan
Ryu’s Shoryuken - a kogetsuzan
Dictator’s Psycho Crusher - a psycho crusher
Raiden’s Torpedo - a non-spinning psycho crusher
Hanzo’s Shrike Drop - a shrike drop
Claw’s Izuna Drop - a shrike drop

This is how your logic looks to me.

Basically, special move can be named after general type of attack it resembles, but not vice versa. We dont call all automobiles “fords”, and we dont call all superheroes “batmans”, and we dont need to call all special moves of certain type after specific name of special move of specific character.

And you were still wrong in the end.:lol:

In Japanese fables, often times the supernatural techniques of ninja and other mythic warriors are said to be learned from tengu upon mountains. I believe the Izuna Drop is one of these legendary techniques, and has been a signature ninja attack in Japanese culture for many years, especially in video games. There’s variations of its portrayal, mostly whether the attacker and victim spin on the way down, but it’s pretty distinguishable from other kinds of suplexes.

Origin of Izuna Drop

[media=youtube]Ya0Eeyg2ZRw[/media]

btw this is an old anime so the video is bloody

[bbq_sauce]

First of all, the move is called Spinning Piledriver. The fact that Vega’s one was named after Mt.Izuna doesnt means that every spinning piledriver should be named after it, lol. Hanzo’s one is called Shrike Drop for example, after the shrike bird.

You can as well try to name all forward dive moves Psycho Crushers, and all fireballs Hadoukens though :rock:

You realize you’re doing what you’re accusing him of doing when you say “all fireballs”, right?

Also realize every startup invincible, 623 input, move will always be a dp. So who really cares?

Jubei Yamada’s version (Fatal Fury 2/Special) is called O-izuna Otoshi (Great Izuna Drop), and its DM version Dynamite Izuna Otoshi.

[Ryodragoon]

Burning Batsu had a Spinning Izuna drop super.
It’s called Iwamano mozu Otoshi.

Isnt the Shrike Drop more like a reverse Izuna drop?

in the Izuna drop, your grabbing and facing your opponent in front you, and possibly spinning.

with the shrike drop , they’re on your back I believe, similar to a Demon Drop (Abel Ultra) but you still do a piledriver.

I need to play NG2 again. Hayabusa has both moves. lol

[Black_Shroud]

Hanzo/Galford do shrike drop/strike heads face-to face in the 7 2D games and RPG, and take opponent on their backs in 3 3D games, and in 4th 3D game they do jump-air suplex-spinning head-to-head thing
