Did you? Because I asked about what can Robert connect from a crB crA. I recall someone saying that he can’t connect a bunch of stuff like his DP for instance.
DP works if you’re at like point-blank range, but even then it only seems to get 1 hit even with the C version and not very good damage.
This last weekend I was doing crossup B+D, standing C, f+B, f+A, hcf+K (command throw)… low B, low A, f+A, hcf+K might work too but only at point-blank range.
Yes, you can TK it, no its not an overhead. The big thing is… Kim can cancel into his dive kicks off of a Jump A (short jump, what have you), i need to see if Robert can as well, because that will make up for it not being an overhead.
If you do a fireball after f+a the game seems to always want to make you dp instead, so I have to pretty much do hcf for the fireball so the game doesn’t detect it as a dp. Game is definitely ultra lenient on the inputs much like sf4.
Seems like every forums has their own jargon/notation; what does TK mean? Anyways, Robert can do:
-j.D/j.C/crossup.j.B+D, s.C, f+B, f+A, c.db~f+D
-j.D/j.C/crossup.j.B+D, s.C, f+B, f~b~f+K
-j.D/j.C/crossup.j.B+D, s.C, CD, f~hcf+P DM
Tigerknee motion, originally refferring to Sagat’s qcf,uf+K in ST. Nowadays people just use it to describe doing an air special/super instantly off the ground by buffering the motion first and then jumping.
It might not be an overhead, but maybe he can cancel an instant overhead j.A or something into the divekick for a combo?
Yeah, we know that. People use it in his st.C combos all the time.
No one posted but I want to know if j.whatever st.C,CD, c.db~fwd+K works. Or does is it not work because if you charge after the st.C the game will read the CD input(since you’re already holding back) as a guard attack?
Sorry if this is a dumbass noob question, but why would anyone pick Ryo when there’s Robert? Ryo’s fireball has no range, his fly kicks and uppercuts don’t have flames on them, otherwise Robert has all the same moves and supers etc. Note I have not played KOF dedicatively before (i.e. only a couple of times). Cheers.
Ryo has a command overhead (f+A), and can combo into f,b,f+P for a lot of damage, I think it does more and is faster (for combos) than Rob’s f,b,f+K. Someone would have to confirm that, though. I’d have to agree a this point, though.
Ryo I think has bigger hitboxes and his A uppercut is one of the safest moves I’ve seen. Plus having his personal set of parries and solid damage potential make Ryo a solid pick either way.
