Canon Spike+Spin Knuckle

Classic Fighting Games Ultra Street Fighter IV
1

So I was testing this, If I do Light Spin Knuckle while I’m 0close to enemy, I can catch’em during active frames and 2nd hit lands on them.

Medium Spin Knuckle is enough to catch’em while u use cannon spike in a combo, for example close HPxxcannonspike.

My question is, I do quite good pressure with these but what about high level gameplay(which is an area I cant reach and I need your help)? Is It safe? Will spin knuckle be beaten by other moves? If this mix working well, will it be bad if we ask for faster spin knuckle?

Thank you for your replies.

note:both I have wrote tested in the mid of screen. About corner I havent tested.

spin knuckle is probably the slowest special in the game, or at least somewhere at the top, so it’s very easy to react and counter it, for people who are familiar with the Cammy match up. Other than that, I’m not really sure what you’re asking

Most high level players are even capable of command grabbing Cammy during that move. It’s really just not threatening.

One of the best uses I found for it was when a character like E.Ryu throws a fireball at heavy spin range, I light spin through it, and he goes into ultra because he thinks I was going for the heavy spin. It seems like it’s only uses are basically cheese.

I’m not a high level player and even at the level I play at it’s easily stomped.

Also, Valle’s Ryu vs Jwong’s Cammy about two months ago had a QSN, it looks as though Wong did it entirely accidentally and the only reason Valle didn’t punish it was because he didn’t expect it. It was just awkward. It even made a little break in the match where both players became unsure of what the other was thinking.

Way easy to spot, will be dragon punched/ultra’d/anything with invincibility’d.

high level players can punish Spin Knuckle, but if you use it only one or two times a game. most of the time, they will block it. Of course, in long run, it’s not a good idea. I played daigo at Norcal regional. He blocked my spin knuckle X2. You can search online alot of top players can’t react to it. Reaction have alot to do with prediction. Go search Sako vids, he used spin knuckle, people can’t react to it. I’m not telling you to spam it.
