What’s your character?
I’d say 60 is about average off of a standard launcher, wall-less.
That being said, damage is super situational, depending on positioning, what launcher you used, if you’re opting for max damage, oki, and of course walls and floor breaks.
I play Lars. Still trying to figure out wall combos, though.
Db2,1 then after that do f1,4
I play Lars too ( and Katarina). Here is what i found so far, but there have to be more optimal stuff out there

combo 1 is : FF2, 3, d/f 3 (hold down to enter DE) , DE2 , d/f21, DE12
combo 2 is fb21, d/f 3 (hold down to enter DE) , DE2 , d/f 21 , dash up 1+2
combo 3 is U/f 4 , d/f 1, d/f 3 (hold down to enter DE) , DE2, B1 , DE12 , d/b21, f1+4
@NupoChromine d/f21 and B1 are pretty interchangeable in most of these combos, B1 is more consistent in juggles but it does lower damage. There are also alternate routes like doing F123, DE1+2
Looks like training mode doesn’t save your recorded dummy actions once you quit. Pretty annoying to record the strings all over again each time you go into training mode.
It would be nice also if when you make him repeat a combo from the move list the dummy went back to blocking so that you could see if it’s punishable or not.
I wish revenge match worked like it does in arcade, it would be faster to rank up instead of what it is now.
Katarina is such a scrub killer character. I like it.
Two hours of EWGF-practice thus far today, with more coming up.
There’s something weirdly fun about practicing this move, in spite of how rarely I actually manage to hit it. At least I’m making slow but steady progression.
Why doesn’t Lars have an Electric? He’s a Mishima too :^(
How’s Lars’ rage drive? Is it worth burning in memory?
EDIT: Shaheen’s damage is crazy…and his stealth step is just like Lars’ DE/SE. I might play him.
No joke, landing an EWGF is always always satisfying. It just has this brutal feel to it. It’s like slamming a sledgehammer into someone’s lower jaw. Only thing that feels better is doing 2-3 in a row.
It is decent because it is plus on block and you can corner carry like crazy with it on hit. It is something i need to explore more with for sure though.
Honestly, I feel that rage comes way too late in rounds, kinda makes it hard to use it consistently.
I’m not at that point yet. Not even close. I hope I get there at some point, but in the meantime I need to be somewhat consistent at doing them on both sides. P2 is fine-ish (around 50% hit rate), but I don’t think I’ve landed one on P1-side in a real match yet. Actually block punishing things with this move seems pretty daunting. On the other hand, getting to launch hopkicks on block seems… pretty insane.
That being said, I initially wanted to play Kaz in spite of EWGF. Now I want to play him because of it. I kinda like this character =p
Lars does not have an electric because he is a worthless robo-sexual bastard that was haphazardly shoehorned into the story.
I can still only do the perfect EWGF like, 1 out of every 15 tries.
Neutral? Mash 4. Launcher? Down-back 4. Juggle? Mash 4. Approach? Forward 4. Screw? Forward 4, 4. 4 the win.
No, but seriously, I’m surprised so few people low in the rankings pick her. Easiest execution in the game, relatively big damage off simple shit (launcher, 444, 22, forward 4, 4/rage drive is 70+ to 90+ damage, huge wall carry, and basically just involves hammering two buttons).
Also, why the fuck is it so hard to get Phoenix Smasher from the left side? I get it like 95% of the time from the right! I want to play Paul so badly, but I suck too much!
Anyone wanna play on PC?
Cause he doesn’t use their fighting style. He’s SUPERHERO.
He’s a cheap-ass Swede.
About Shaheen, does anybody know an easy way to get the slide? Motion seems kinda awkward. Sometimes I get it 10 times in a row, sometimes not.
I also read on Zaibatsu that he gets a guaranteed WS3 after a slide, but right now he automatically transitions into stealth step after it and 3 doesn’t connect most of the time. Did they nerf him or what?
