its intended. Also your hitbox is wider when you crouch. So you can be grabbed from further away and UOH always hits with maximum advantage (i think).
I don’t know if I like that or not. It’s certainly interesting.
…You play SF3, I’m surprised you’re surprised about the extra damage on crouching opponents (actually, a few other fgs have this modifier as well). I do wonder though if a crouching target yields +F a la SF3 as well. No idea how to go about testing that though.
No, in 3S you don’t take more damage if you’re crouching. You can get caught with a UOH if you’re crouching but it has to be spaced correctly to do anything. UOH’s are used more on wakeup as a meaty or as a general poke. I believe Ken could kara-cancel the UOH and I know Remy’s UOH has an extra frame of hitstun. But UOH’s aren’t a big part of the game.

control+F “crouch damage”
Sorry buddy, don’t know how long you’ve played 3S for but the SF3 series has crouch damage modifiers. Use akuma or ibuki (former ibuki main here) and get hit crouching with ryu cr.MK, SA2 and you will CERTAINLY notice a difference in damage lol.
Stuff Edit:
http://yokappa.com/threads/yatagarasu-crowd-funding-stream-at-the-jaxel-dome.115/
stream this wknd in NJ for yata fundraising. Going to actually try and make it out to this (chances are dire though). Either way, hope people tune in and support/ask questions/provide info.
What if we try and cater to fanboys to donate based on a characters cuteness alone?
Okay there is a crouch dmg modifier but it’s about 5% extra damage. Easy to miss. Not like Yata where the crouch dmg is an extra 15 to 20% easily.
Okay, it actually depends on what you combo into and you get between 5 to 10% more damage. I fucked up.
I think its common for this game to give a “risk factor” to every abusable gameplay solution:
You can’t spam parry while blocking (you’ll get hit).
You get huge punishment for failing parry in mid air.
You punished if you try to turtle using “block low, parry high” tactic (overheads are usually more predictable and some attacks can whiff if you crouching).
Since I exposed myself I found another weird thing regarding crouching:
Chowdah’s cr.C, Drop Kick BNB does not work on over half the cast if they’re crouching UNLESS you use EX Drop Kick.
The BNB still works on Jyuzumaru and Hanzo. That’s right, it doesn’t work on Chowdah, you would THINK so right?
What’s weirder is that you cannot combo into EX Drop Kick if it’s Shimo but you can combo into EX Drop kick against Hina…
Some other things I found:
Hanzo’s QCFx2 Kick super has no invincibility. Can’t use it on wakeup. Her Grab Super has super armor but she takes double damage during the super.
It’s a good thing she has wakeup EX spin kick as an option lol. Also Hanzo taking double damage on hit during grab super is pretty hilarious.
Stuff:
-Jet’s “genei jin” super has small invuln on it so it can actually be used as a reversal/wakeup super. And due to the time freeze, you can scout attacks and react accordingly to whiffed meaties or attacks in general (e.g. reversal genei jin > opponent’s attack whiffs > super punch). It does have small recovery after the activation so you can’t do dumb stuff like a mistimed genei jin then parry to cover yourself.
-Everyone takes the same damage. There are no unique damage mods that correlate to total health or the like.
-However, at about 30% health or so, a damage mod kicks in and you take a bit less (didn’t confirm %)
-Should have mentioned this a long time ago but stun in this game is pretty messed up. You get launched on dizzy hit and are put in BLCH state (minus the damage bonus). So this means you get the silly BLCH herpderp juggles if you’re on point (e.g. Chadha LK drop kick x4~5). AND to make things worse, after the combo is done the target will STILL STAND UP DIZZIED lol. tl;dr: don’t get stunned ever!
Well it’s a given that EX Spin Kick is a good option. It’s another thing that resembles 3S Chun. Luckily you only need to Parry the first hit of the EX (and you can Parry high or low) and you can punish her with whatever.

July 20th Yatagarasu 4.2 World Series
Start Time: July 20th 08:00 (EST) / July 20th 05:00 (PDT) / July 20th 21:00 (Japan)
Livestream URL: http://ja.twitch.tv/sny321
This came out of nowhere. Welp, looks like I’ll be getting up early on a Saturday…
Also, I’m thinking about doing another Replay TV stream tonight with possible coverage on system mechanics (if I can get my hands on a controller of sorts). Will post up in a few hours if that’s going to happen. Thinking about starting maybe 11PM EST
Good stream. No idea why they were running 4.2 but good stream.
I just realized that Chowdah can combo off of HP Scourge Impact (Punch)… Holy shit.
As far as buffs go for Chowdah. Other then 360 Jump Protection I was thinking that maybe HP should be an Overhead? He can’t combo off of it and as-is his UOH is not terribly great. You can only follow up UOH with LP for a tiny bit of damage and use UOH as an obvious Tick setup. Compared to the rest of the characters that can easily land super (except Kou I think) off of UOH it would be a tiny buff for him.
Went into full internet stalker mode after the jp toruney this morning and did some intelligence gathering. Here’s what I have so far:
Twitters

(Hiya) - The strong ass Hanzo user
https://twitter.com/NALKAMI
(Narukami) - The cheap ass Shimo user
https://twitter.com/BBSLEVEL
(BBS) - I’ve seen the name on the JP leaderboards for 4.3. I think he mains Chadha but I’m probably dead wrong. He’s definitely “up there” in terms of online presence.
https://twitter.com/SNY321
(SNY) - Organizer of today’s online jp event. Not sure if he has an alias or who he runs in Yata. He understands a bit of (simple) english too so maybe you can squeeze some info out of him about other top players in the jp scene.

Donation stream going on now. Go in and DONATE
The donation campaign has gone up about 1500 since jaxel started streaming. 73,000 is looking a lot more possible.
yeah, if the major stream producers keep promoting and exposing new audiences to the game then their target goal will be possible. Much respect to jaxel and the yata devs for setting this whole thing up. A shame I couldn’t make it out there to put in my two-cents on the game. Also, was kind of expecting the party to have done some research on the game before attending an event exhibiting the gameplay but was still entertaining to see first impressions from established players in the fgc.
…I’ll never let the “Crow is godtier” comment fly though lmao.
p.s. #babydick
FAP EDIT:
FOLLOW THIS MAN AND THANK HIM lol
Also, suggest you set aside extra napkins…
T_T EDIT:
I think this is the artist for yata. omfg this concept/sample art is GORGEOUS. Never really followed an artist’s work before but this may be a first.
Random Plug EDIT:
How does one get this front paged on srk. I think the info is valuable and there seems to be some interest buzzing around for the game for bit now. Think they’d bother with a front pg post?
Well, I learned something today. I learned that Kou is a dude. I retract my request for breasts.
