Uh I’ve beaten supers by accident twice with a command grab. Once I used Rock’s 360 and stopped Blanka’s DL. Then just yesterday, I used Iori’s command grab and stopped Eagle’s super. So is this hard to do? And why does it happen? I know you can’t do a P or K throw when ppl super you. What makes a command throw so powerful?
You can normal throw a lot of supers. The easiest example is Kyo’s flame. While he’s holding it, throw his ass.
I’ve also seen Zangief do a FAB against a honda headbutt. When I saw that, I went, WHAT…DA…FACK?!?1 Because I know for a fact that his FAB can only grab grounded opponents. Which means the headbutt must have been RCed.
At any rate, you want see me trying to scum gale(Iori’s comm grab) against blanka’s supers. Again, scum gale only grabs grounded opponents, and some supers get airtime.
The only thing that puts command grabs apart is that they can be done at any time. So if it has 8 frames of startup, you start it on the opponents reversal frame, and he gets grabbed on the first ‘throwable’ frame. Command lets you do a grab when the computer forces you to do a normal. There’s no invincibility, no extra range(minus kara command grabs), and you still can’t grab airborne opponents.
rock command grab versus DL? what…da…fuck? Sounds to me like a free counter hit for blanka.
Zangief did the 720 instead of the qcf qcf + K super? About Rock command grab…I did the 360 and Blanka started glowing. But then it stopped and Rock finished the 360 without get hurt. Meanwhile Blanka’s meter went from lvl 3 to 0 without doing anything. The only reason you can grab Kyo out is because of the delay. I’m talkin about when they initially start with their invincibility frames.
That also happend to me. When Guile jumps in the air and I started using Zangief super jump lvl 2 the after that Guile AIR THROWS me and everyone scream what happend ?!?
Ok I think that’s different but I’m not sure. Maybe you did the air super too early and so Guile was able to throw you after you missed.
I didn’t I’m sure Guile is in the air as I use the super air grab of zangief and then was counter by an air throw.
I lost to that game because of that stupid air throw. (darn Guile)
I’ve tossed Blanka hella times with Rock’s command and Cammy and Kim’s regular throws. I never plan it, but it just happens sometimes. Same situation: hella close and I see them walking forward from down back (first half of DL input), I think they’re gonna throw me, so I toss them. Screen flashes, Blanka loses all his meter, and ends up on the ground. Weird ass shit. I can’t explain why, though, just thought I’d validate your claim. It’s on video somewhere…
All I hafta say is, dont try doing this in the middle of a match randomly. Cuz this sounds more random than Nick T. doing s.RH with Blanka and beating Sagat’s Roll Super (L2 Tiger Raid)
Happened to me a few times yesterday. I did the b, f, b, f + k super with Blanka and got thrown before the super actually started. My meter went from 3 to 0 without any super flashes. I think I got thrown in the startup frames, after the super had been inputted, before the super flash, but after the super actually started.
Make fun of that if you want, but the shit actually works. I’ve done it more than a half a dozen times.
oh wow lol I didn’t know people replied. But thanks, it makes me feel better knowing that I’m not crazy. So have any of you found a consistent way to do it? BTW…how do you do that with a regular throw? I thought all supers were invincible to regular throws so that when you try to throw a super, you would miss and get hit.
