as the title suggests, does anyone know why this happens?
it happens at least once a match… and it’s really annoying because the opponent can just punish me in the air. im sure im doing the motion right because it comes out every other time i do itand its not like a hard motion to do. but umm is there any like property that makes it so you cant IAT for some reason? Thanks

edit: it seems to happen most during fireball wars…
like im throwing out fireballs and then baiting them to keep throwing fireballs then i want to IAT and crossup fierce them but i get a jumping towards fierce and i eat a punish :expressionless:

Either you aren’t hitting your motions correctly or you aren’t hitting your punches simultaneously. All I can suggest is practice practice practice. View your replays and check your inputs when you get jumping fierce.

If you’re a bit too late between finishing the dp motion and doing the jump for the IAT this can happen.

hmm good idea I never thought about going back to replays lol. And I’m doing the up motion almost right after the srk motion… so it can’t be that I am taking too long

nice I figured out my problem in training mode. The reason why sometimes I got a fierce to come out instead is im not holding upforward the entire time, i let go of upforward THEN press all punches. What this does is sometimes the stick registers a Forward after my upforward and so a forward fierce comes out lol. So the solution for anyone who has this problem: HOLD upforward when doing the srk motion and press the kicks as you are holding upforward instead of letting go of the stick. Might be common sense to some but I didn’t know you had to lol.

I wouldnt suggest using upforward then srk motion coz then your IAT will be too high in the air unless you are godlike fast…
