Electric Wind God Fist _ Updt: 03.08.12

I got on SCV the other day realized SFxT taught me how to EWGF. I was throwing them around on Devil Jin like crazy. Makes me sad he’s banned, because that was fun as all hell.

I was kinda sad to hear he was a create a character or whatever but I still really wanna try the game and yes that does look like a lot of fun, I dont know what to get next sf4, sc5 or KOF13 I am torn on choices lol. Really wish I could take back SG the online is horrid :frowning:

Well SSF4 isn’t too expensive, KoF13 has a huge execution learning curve, but its very fun even at a basic level, and SC5 is just plain awesome. You can play it with no-nohow whatsoever, but don’t expect to be able to compete without doing a lot of studying. Very knowledge intensive.

Tested mist step xx ewgf, no luck. No idea what’s going on in the video. Hopefully the Jin players can pick it apart. Love that you can backdash at any point during Jin’s special step. Would be great if you could do that during mist step…

On a side note check the kazuya main thread for how to deal with jab jab jab *Hint “DORYA” :slight_smile:

Maybe I’m late but Tekken sure loves the Devil

Finally found a way to consistently input the EWGF…My method is to press hard immediately as you put the stick to neutral. Since then I’ve had many electrics!

make sure you got a technique you can rock for both crouching and standing too

Is there a way to buffer from crouching? Usually when I hit the link I let go of the stick and input the Mist Step, but is there a better way?

In theory? Sure. In practice? No…

Trust me, I can do raw EWGF’s all day, and this very seldom works.

When im standing i do it as follows: Input normal whilst its hitting input the mist step pressing punch at the downforward so it comes up as (F, N, D,DF+2)

When im crouching: i go for a lite wavedash input its pretty fast, it looks like this in the input (D, DF, DF+H. F,N, DF+2) looks kinda funny but its a quarter circle neutral down forward+2

Since im on the hitbox i have better control and precision over my movement im not too sure how it a stick user would fair if my method is too hard try QCFx2 and time your punch for the downforward of the second Qcf lemme know how it goes (Y)

I will certainly keep you informed. Thanks for the advice, even if it is coming from a hitbox player.

Progress! I can combo into the EWGF from crouching. How I’m doing it is hitting the crouching button, release the stick, and the input the Mist Step into the EWGF. Granted it’s inconsistent on the P2 side, but I can hit it! As for P1 side, I’m still trying to learn how to Mist Step consistently from both crouching and standing.

I have to recommend learning to roll your stick through the directions in a circle from diagonals – its a lot faster and easier. going from :df: to :f:, n, :d:, :df: is really easy once you practice it a bit.

With a bit of practice it’s not hard to go from :db: through to :df:, :f:, n, :d:, :df: pretty quickly. I used to work on that, but honestly, if you’re pressing a button you can’t block at the same time anyway.

For standing normals like st.Fierce I do :f: + :hp:, xx :d:, :df: + :mp:, for low normals, it’d be :df:+:hp: xx :f:, n, :d:, :df: + :mp:

Just give it a try for a while. The best part is you can be really sloppy, but as long as you hit the appropriate directions in addition to any extras it’ll work. Sometimes the crouching version feels like you have to go really high (sometimes i feel liek I’m almost trying to jump) but it always work when I feel like that.

Thanks for your advice, mate. I will practice those inputs and keep you informed. Thanks again.

Just dropping in to say thanks to all the people who contribute info for this and the other EWGF threads. The advice helps greatly. I just started trying to learn Kaz (After giving him up on Day 0 dismissing him becuase mist stepping was too hard for me). After 2 days and a lot of time in Training mode I can successfully achieve EWGF about 60% raw from P1 side and only about 10% or so from P2 side. I can link it off standing normals on P1 side as well but I still can’t quite combo yet.

I even went back to Tekken 6 and did a few there just to try my hand at it, though I’m a lot less consistent (I play Bryan in T6 so I never gave EWGF much thought back then). I plan on grinding out a lot more in training mode to improve my consistency and then go to hit confirms from normals, then combos.

Again just dropping in to say Thanks.

Congratulations on your success. There is many people (such as myself) in the same boat as you. :slight_smile: I hope you get to the point of ViolnetDjango, when you can do EWGFS at will! Stay with it!

:db: through to :df:, :f:, n, :d:, :df:
You don’t get ex or regular DGF with that crouch normal xx EWGF motion? On p1 side, I have to calm down and do :d:, :f:, n, :d:, :df: in order to get EWGF (don’t really have problems on p2 side).

Nope. I probably accidentally get EX maybe once in 100, and I very seldom get Demon God Fist unless I’m just being sloppy in general.

MIst Step/Wavedash into EWGF

First I show a single Mist Step cancelled into an ewgf, followed by a wavedash xx ewgf.
Second Video shows its application in a match setting, to duck under projectiles and punish.

I hit forward, qcf to start the mist step, then you have to do your regular ewgf input as kazuya is moving forward.
