Guys, this is a true left/right unblockable, although there is a 1 frame window to do a super. That’s IT. I’m not even joking.
Thing is, it’s not easy to set up but not impossible. Plus after you get it, you can’t REALLY convert into tons of damage by yourself, but still it’s pretty funny to see.
Folia had a left right unblock able… You just reset into drill xx super and the super hits on either the left side or the right side depending which direction you hold. Not sure if it still works post patch
eh, there no reason to be dramatic gilly, left/right unblockables are part of any 2D fighting game and this is hardly the first setup found in SG. Theres plenty of scummy stuff such as calling an assist to reset grab somebody while they’re stuck on the ground in preblock animations or 50/50 high/low/crossup guessing games.
If you’re not gonna post it, at least report back with more thorough testing.
So far works against Painwheel and Cerebella. Painwheel can get out of it mashing Death Crawl, but it being a left/right unblockable, it’s hard. Bella can dp+MP or grab super, both with basically 1 frame timing to do.
The fact that its not an air reset means half the cast gets out with their invincible reversal. SG has a 4 frame reversal window I think, with most either hitting on both sides or shifting hitboxes pretty dramatically. Its a small window but no way would you have to do it with 1 frame accuracy. Everybody will probably be able to get out with regular super but that might get blown up if PW has the reactions to Buer Thresher in response. This might sound silly but have you tried chicken blocking or even crouching to make it whiff?
This isn’t SF4, the center of your character doesn’t shift a few pixels when turning which direction you’re facing. That’s what allows “unblockable” cross ups in SF4 and afaik, this doesn’t happen in SG. Ambiguous crossups are nothing new.
I’m slightly confused, how does the starter have less range? I’m loving new Painwheel. Sure, you have to actually hit confirm now, but I’m using Cerecopter for that anyway haha.
You can do the new BnB from a throw, sure it does less now, but it still works and has the same ridiculous reset options.
