Electric Wind God Fist _ Updt: 03.08.12

If anyone hasn’t tried yet, try double tapping. Can do EWGF about 80% of the time now, while before I could get it maybe 30% of the time.

I’m getting EWGF 100% of the time by double tapping Forward then Down/Forward. It’s much easier than I thought it would be, I’m able to chain them together now.

There’s no Wavedash requirement for EWGF, as showcased in the trial video that got linked earlier. People need to start acknowledging the difference between WGF and EWGF, because there’s a huge difference between them now.

For practice, I put cpu on all block and just go at it. You can see/feel the difference, along w/ the chip damage being higher…Watch the push back as well.

Since there’s no EX version, if you practice EWGF while pressing 2 buttons and get a successful EWGF there will be no EX regardless of hitting one button or two.

And it kills Fireballs. Just confirmed it.

Feels like I can EWGF more consistently if I do the correct motion but hit the punch right between d and df. So I get:
f (or df), d, P~df

I’ve had inconsistent results with this. I’m a tekken player so I’m not unfamiliar with it bt doesn’t mean it’s not difficult! I wish they didn’t electrify the wgf, easier to tell when u get it right that way.

Anyway, some success tryna do the punch earlier as mentioned. I’m not sure I understand what ppl r saying about holding down a button or using two buttons. Also, anyone tried multiple wavedashes into the Ewgf? To me it feels like different from tekken, although I cnt quite place it, might jus be me tho. Doing it from crouching normals is still a pain in the ass tho :expressionless: getting even the wgf from crouching is an issue, letalone Ewgf!

I’m having trouble doing WGF from any normal, for some reason when I try to combo into it I get his qcf 30% of the time and nothing like 50% of the time, I still do great with him but I can’t do any of his exceptionally good combos, plus the combos with Mist Step look cooler. I guess I just need to practice more, none of the shortcuts seem to work with me either. Oh well, I am prepared to practice one move for hours I guess, haha

hey guys,
i played around with the EWGF today and got some combos:

SUPERS/CROSS ART:
j.HP, s.HP, QCB LP, EWGF, c.HP, SUPER --591 DMG
j.HP, s.HP, QCB LP, EWGF, c.HP, CROSS ART --669 DMG (JURI)
EWFG, SUPER/CROSS ART --433 DMG/–546 DMG (JURI)
EWGF, EWGF, c.HP, SUPER --537 DMG (corner)

meterless:
j.HP, s.HP, EWFG, s.HP, EWGF, --438 DMG (corner)
j.HP, s.HP, QCB LP, EWGF, c.HP, special step, mp->lp --461 DMG

i tested those on Ryu, can someone confirm those work on all characters?

Finally found a way of doing Mist Steps that works consistently for me. I picture it like a C Motion, with the top right of the C being the forward input. It’s made it much easier for me to do them consistently now.

There seems to be some confusion on the difference between EWGF and WGF. If you are wavedashing to get a EWGF, if the electricity is blue; it is not a EWGF. It is a WGF.

I took a picture of the needed inputs for a EWGF - http://i.imgur.com/qY1DO.jpg It’s double tapping f, d/f+p. As you can see there’s no way to get a wavedash from that input alone, and since d/f+P must be on the same frame, there’s no way to wavedash into a EWGF, only WGF.

Sounds like it might work, I’ll give it a try

@haunted: just to clarify, you’re saying you cannot,at all, wavedash into a purple lightened Ewgf? Im skeptical about that, that’s one of his go to options in tekken an leads to big dmg, why wouldnt u be able to do it here especially given the properties of the Ewgf in this game aswell?

well technically it’s still an EWGF (hence the electricity!) but, it’s just not the just frame version

we really need to come up with some specific terminology for the just frame version

you can wave dash into it just like in tekken but, the timing will definitely take a lot of work

This isn’t a Tekken game, the sfxt engine treats it differently. Mist Step can be canceled into the follow ups or another Mist Step, but because of how this game works and since the EWGF has such a strict requirement, it won’t happen. I’ve tested following the Mist Step with a perfectly executed EWGF (having the d/f and the P be on the same frame) and it still end up with WGF. If anyone can figure out how to make it work then by all means I’m all for being proven wrong. But this isn’t a Tekken game, you can’t expect the same behavior from both games.

no point in splitting hairs over terminology when WGF (blue) and EWGF (pink) is a clear enough distinction as it currently stands since blue electricity behaves as WGF does in Tekken and pink as EWGF does.

I don’t know why I didn’t think of this earlier but what would the effect of double tapping have on the input requirements of EWGF since it has such a precise frame input?

Hmmm since some people say that the Kaiser wave motion (641236) is a good shortcut for the regular WFG… does doing the Kaiser Wave motion very quickly bring out a EWGF?

who ever can do the EWGF on a ps3 controller plz explain it to me.

I’m aware It’s not Tekken however that fact that the Ewgf (purple one) has the same properties as in Tekken I.e. higher juggle height, damage, increased pushback, it would certainly be a waste if u couldn’t.

I’ve been sitting here for the last hour trying to cancel the Mist Step into EWGF (Pink) and I can’t figure out if it’s actually canceling the Mist Step or just performing the EWGF on the first possible frame. Sometimes it looks like it works but it’s really, really difficult to tell.

I don’t have the fastest hands, I’m going to ask Mr. NAPS if he can confirm weither or not this works, he’s the best executional Kazuya that I know of.

If it DOES work, you have to preform another input inside of the Mist Step. I don’t know about the practicality of that. It would be fantastic if someone would actually try this out and get back to me with what you find.
