Typically the only times I’m able to get launchers off is when I have some distance, so that I can play wavedash mind games with EWGF, ff+3, cd+4, and so on, or if I catch them slipping with a CH df+2. The rest of the time I find that I pretty much have to play defensive, and rely on punishment (thankfully Kazuya’s punishment game is top-notch).

Yeah it just kinda is a weird type of mindset to play, being that I’m a juggle happy Marduk hah.

make sure to check frame data and see what moves leave opponent at -13 or higher on block, thats a free ewgf. ewgf is basically 14 frames but with kaz’s mistep, its 13 frames, which the input would be f, n, d/f+2. the other mishimas are f, n, d, d/f+2.

11>2 and b+1>2 are great, you can hit confirm them which is the meaning of ‘>’

d/f4,4 is also hit-confirmable.

arcelonious, kaz is arguable the best punisher in the game.

ws12 is his other feasible launcher, duck highs punish with that. train them to duck, wd~ws12.

u/f+4444 is only good to use against big characters like jack as a wall combo, they all connect. dont use it outside of that.

Yeah I was going to tell him that… but he wanted something more easier to do

ah yeah that isnt exactly easy. practice your mist step electrics by doing d/f2 ch and see if you can launch with it. if you do it right, then its the 13 framer.

use practice mode, have dummy attack with a move that leaves tehm at -13, block it and whip out a mist step ewgf. thats how i practice it.

Right So, I’m entirely new to Shoryuken. My friend showed it to me for the sole purpose of this thread. I’m trying to use Kazuya a lot better and I’m not the best at the EWGF yet. (but i’m practicing that beast every day).
I did this combo just off the top of my head and i’d like some opinions about here…

d/b+3, 2, d/f+1, 2, d/b+2

It’s only like 50 some odd dmg but it’s got plenty of stun and it starts off a innocent poke… YAY OR NAY?

nay, I dont think that even comboes

try , EWGF, FF,1,FF,1,D/B+2 ,B! ,F*D/F ,4 ,1(hELL SWEEP) to get you started

Quick question about uf 4,4,4,4,4,4,4…

If you fake uf 4 and then the opponent bites, what is the best punisher/launcher at your disposle that is not EWGF ?

I have been using d/f 2,1 (I think that is the move) to launch and combo after.

I ask because mad peeps bite on this move. Any suggestions.

Peace!

U/F+4
U/F+4+4…
Is all EWGF punishable , don’t use that move man

Gotta know the move man or I cant help you.

Low parry that, 2,1,4 - d/b,2 Bound - and finish that shit off

dunno if that was a typo, but you cant low parry and then do a bound
