Garou: MOTW Thread

Yeah I use the dp+a version, seems like you dont land the second hit of your qcf+b if you use the dp+C version.

The thing that helped me the most was buffering the qcf+B out of the Braked dragon punch. Make sure it comes out as fast as you can handle. (worked for me at least) The tough thing is that sometimes you won’t get the launch if you’re not close so hit confirming can be tougher.

I’ve thinking of picking this game up. Is it better than neowave or 03? Or is it of a different breed?

^It’s one of SNK’s most balanced games, so yeah get it.

Main problem with picking this game up is that it’s not very popular…it will be hard to find competition.

eh…comp aint a probelm. I’m more casual so i’m good just playing by myself or with close friends.Thanks i’ll get it.

Great link man!

Nice buddy, his DH kinda reminded me of yours too.

In the one vid, Tizoc did his taunt cancelled into a justice hurricane. Whats the difference between using that and using his one feint? Does his taunt dodge low?

I saw a video where Jenet pulls of two close D -> lots-and-lots-of-kicks-super… how the hell do I pull this off :slight_smile:

I have no real problems in feint-canceling close D -> another close D, but I cant seem to cancel that into the super :confused:

You have to be faster…close D(1 hit), d+AC(not f+AC), then crouch C, qcfx2+P is easier to pull off.

for connecting the punch super the one I see alot (and it’s easier no feints) is cr.b st.a xx punch super.

Well… if you connect a cr.b it’s probably smarter to continue with qcf+B->break->kick super instead for more damage (I believe).

Also I had no issues connecting two close D after eachother (for a 3 hit combo) feinting forward… Im pretty sure you have to take a step forward directly as you feint to connect though, so I guess getting the super out should be something like
close.D->feint->step forward->close.D->feint->super… but I cant get the super out fast enough :confused:

OK, in that site Tea posted is a Jae Hoon vs. Tizoc match (note sure which one it is I’m afraid), and in it it showed that the Big Bird can combo into his Air Throw, so I sat down and tested this and this is what I found:
1- Jumping Attack Counter Hits–>:qcf:+:snka:; Basically do a Jumping attack with Counter Hits, then ‘cancel’ it into his :qcf:+:snka:
2- :rdp:+:p: Counter Hits jumping opponent–>Jumping :snka:/:snkb:xx:qcf:+:snka:; Note that I only managed to do this with the :snkc: version, not sure about the :snka: version, anyway the command is self explainable.

So based off that, I could say that Tizoc has THE MOST BUGS in the game, other than those are:
1- Perform his :hcf:+:snkb: when ur opponent’s life is near 0 (also make sure you’ve corned them or are near the corner), then quickly input :qcf::qcf:+:k:
2- Perform his lariat at the corner, then do a Crouching :snkd: or his kick super.

OK, so 3 bugs, BUT I don’t think there are other characters with bugs of their own…

Also you don’t have to counter hit to combo into Tizocs command air grab you can just press jump A then go to neutral into the command grab motion and it connects but doesn’t combo.

nah see the thing is, if your to far away for that to hit you can do this, plus I think they both do comparable damage.

Been playing this game a bit recently, I just wanted to stop in and thank Nocturnal for mirroring all the recent Howard Arena matches at YouTube, and thanks to everyone that has contributed information to the thread.

I’ve been trying to add a bit to the wiki, but damn thing is puking all over itself. I’d like to at least get the frame data from Howard Arena copied over.

Speaking of HA they got the new 3rd Garou Ranbat up on filebank, here is the link:

Http://www.filebank.co.jp/guest/haraheriwolf/haraheriwolf

password: haraheri

This time you have to enter that number code they give you so you can get the file, so first put in the password on the first blank. Then after that put the number code they give you under that. It’s the 3rd file, 22 matches total, 381 mb total right now it’s DL pretty slow since it’s probably getting lots of DLs from others. I’ll also upload these on youtube once I finish with the others, I’ll try getting those done by tomorrow if I get a chance. Enjoy.

Just curious- to ‘leech’ off of youtube.com, you need to use Firefox right?
