DP osing grab and block
pray tell howyou do that, especially since dp is forward motion?
I’m guessing DF, DB, DF, DB (wait) P.
placed my highest yet in a tournament.
maybe it will be of interest for some. i went into traing mode already to correct mistakes but feedback is appreciatyed.
I’m actually doing F,DF,D,DF,F,DB wait a few frames LP+LK. Your way might work too.
Hey Kokopops, watched all those videos, thoroughly enjoyed your game play. Some of that commentary was salty so I was wanting to mute that. People wanting to complain about losing to THawk and call him the worst character in game need to hold that L.
a couple of things; I liked your use of neutral jump fierce, your reads were pretty much on point. Some criticisms however, and you might have your reasons for doing what you do but a lot of situations you resorted to heavy typhoon when you could have done close medium punch to DP which would have given you the same damage and kept you up close and in your opponent’s face.
Secondly when you attempted multiple splashes the opponents you were playing were auto correcting you every time so the situation called for more variance.
No tick throws but you were landing the throws when they counted. I personally use a combination of raw throws and tick throws. Tick would benefit your game by conditioning your opponents not to jump or press buttons.
I think you did too many empty spires to throw - you weren’t being punished so I don’t think it was wrong to continue it but always be mindful that if someone is waiting for spire you are super vulnerable. I’d use this more sparingly.
In the end it’s true your T.Hawk is based on making more reads and taking more risks to blow people up. With that said it’s hard to criticize when it’s a set approach to playing: Get in, knock em down, guess 1 out of 3, restart loop. You had all the boxes checked so far as I could see so well done!
3frame safe jump After l.SPD
thankds for the feedback dontdodat. yesim working on getting better punishes in those situations.like cl HK to ex Con dive or clmp, clmk, mcon buster.
i hear what your saying about spire but also it has one of the best recovery frames for horizontally moving special move in the game, so i look for it.
thanksfor the feedback again
Help please! I’m a pad Hawk and I never tried to learn plinking until this point. Seeing as how I can’t consistently s.HP > c.MK, I wanted to learn what the easiest way to consistently land it on pad? Thanks!
The concept is the same as stick, that being said there is no easier way unfortunately.
check out this thread: PAD Plink
(Apparently I never actually posted this message) The easiest way is pressing the MK button with your middle finger, then the LK button with your index finger. You can also slide/roll your thumb over both buttons.
Nope… Can’t seem to do it. I’m new to all this plinking stuff… So, how do I know that it was thanks to the plinking mechanics that I was able to land a certain hit and not because of skill, i.e. I managed to do it without plinking?
You don’t. Just watch training mode. If your input bar says:
LK+MK
MK
Then you plinked it. Plinking simply allows you to press the button one frame too early and still have it come out, since the button is carried over if you press something else the very next frame.
I see. I’ll try again tomorrow and post the results here. Thanks so much for the help, guys!
Two more 3 frame safe jumps after MP.SPD:
1.Whiff st.LP,walk forward slightly, then do a jumping forward MK
2.Whiff st.MP then do a jumping forward Mk (This won’t work on Guile)
I must be doing it too late cause I’m trading hits with Ryu. Are you whiffing and holding up forward?
Edit: stayed with it and got it done, but it’s gonna take more practice. You can do the second setup with jumping heavy kick too.
Isn’t the term “3-frame safe-jump” a little confusing? They’re range-based safe jumps after all, not affected by the start-up of the reversals (to a certain degree).
What term you think is appropriate?
I don’t know D: Long-range safe jump?
They’ve been calling it 3 frame safe jump for a while now, Guile has one, Makoto too, prolly more - haven’t looked. T Hawk seems to have quit a few.
