i’m a newbie in the SF3 3S world… and for me it takes a lot to make a karathrow cause honestly i don’t know what am i doing wrong, i try to do everything that the tutorials say and execute the commands as accurate as possible but nothing… is it a thing of practice of months or should i just become a janitor at my local school cause i just dont have “it”? despite i have seen plenty of tutorial made by the people here and learn everything neccessary I still don’t get it. What can i do to improve when i have already seen and read everything there is?

[System_1]

Lol, Emphy will take your money too easily.

Probably. I’m pretty bad.

ALL of these examples can be red parried somewhat easily. In fact, Ken’s cr. forward cancelled to any hadou doesn’t even combo from about max range. If you were in the range to do that, you might as well have done shortshort anyway.

I’m not telling anyone to do these things in matches. I’m telling them to practice it. I didn’t say Ken’s combo was practical, I just listed it because it is a combo of that nature.

USUALLY, that hadou smacks you in the face, so you only get one hit of shippu in.

you misread

While it IS 10 times safer, that doesn’t make it safe itself (…which means whiffing throw is REALLY bad). You CAN be beat out by stronger, well-timed attacks and you can also be parried by people who like to cover their attacks with parries.

so according to your theory sticking out a crouching jab is < whiff tech? if not that don’t argue with me on this one. GENERALLY, doing a crouching tech is better. there is no option in thirdstrike that is always better than the other. unless it’s something like parrying a fullscreen fireball

How is “rush down on chun before she has bar!!!” part of one’s execution? Also, even though you said you’re making this thread to steer theory fighters into the right direction, karaPALM 5 times doesn’t even come in handy later. It is VERY hard to get karapalm down consistently, but EVEN IF YOU DO (…which would be going theory fighter), you just pressed 15 buttons in 3 seconds to NOT EVEN GET 15 EXTRA POINTS OF DAMAGE on your combo.

Edit: If you actually meant karaCLAP for Hugo, don’t bother with it. You have to steer clear of f unless you want hcb + k, which makes it not too practical, considering you only get a TINY LITTLE bit of extra range.

i was saying, these things can come LATER, when you have the basics down.

Do you BELIEVE you can or you CAN? No offense, just asking.

no offense taken, i simply believe i can.

[System_1]

hmmm

Yes, I misread/misunderstood the reversing cr. forward to shippu part, but only because I’m used to doing or talking about reversing cr. forward itself with shippu. No one around here really does fireball afterwards simply because you can red parry it. BUT, when some people get really obvious in reversing cr. forward with shippu, then they usually throw a fireball or an ex one to waste their meter.

I KNOW generally crouching tech is better than standing tech. In fact, I pretty much spam the hell out of it. I’m merely stating the dangers of it to help people who try what you said look out for these dangers and adapt. Crouching tech outweighs standing tech in the pros part for sure. The only con the crouching tech is if you’re getting obvious. Standing tech has a LOT of cons. I think there’s only one real pro to standing tech, and that’s to get an accidental throw. I’ve gotten pretty used to baiting these.
Eh, I tried to IMPLY that I believed crouching tech > standing tech in my first post, but whatever.

As for karapalms after getting your basics down,

doesn’t even come in handy LATER.

There are a few times you might NEED it, but those are rare.

Thanks for replying :karate:

[System_1]

Eh, that’s true.

Keni, sorry about the thread.

[Dragon_Light]

So the option select tech is useful with ALL characters?

And yea make sure to post the vid on CV.com or something fellas. It’d suck to make us “international EVO attendees in spirit” guys miss out on the good stuff. Don’t ask Thongboy to do it either, coz some people want it Tuesday.

Never seen ThongBoy play either. Should be interesting stuffz.
