[Xrd] News & Gameplay Discussion 2 - Console is Out!

Back throw OS is a thing? My confidence as a GG player just shattered.

I think he means just doing j.4H instead of trying to j.6S+H and accidentally getting 956 for an IAD. Less damage if they don't burst but less misinput prone I guess?

Never mind ignore this.

[NecroTheReaper]

I meant more along the lines of how does this not give you FD? Every time I use to try it, I just blocked. Is it plinking or something?

Disregard, I was thinking of something else.

I actually mis-wrote. Sorry guys :-P

OS throw is forward only, but throwing with 4 will solve your late IAD issue, and let you create Burst safe OS combos.

[Destin]

I usually do the back throw, but in my head I say I should be doing forwards throw OS P+H or something like that.

[dot_Nova]

I personally do forward throw OS 4P+HS if I'm fishing for a hard read or if I'm facing the corner. I end up doing 4HS out of reaction and habit every other time.

How do you get a forward throw out of 4P+HS? Wouldn't that be a back throw?

[D.R.F.]

4P+Hs would be FD. Which means you wouldn't be throwing anyone.

You're right. I didn't even think of that. I don't use OSs, so that completely slipped my mind.

On the ground 4P+Hs is nice against slayer and Leo. If they try to crossup dash then you throw them out of of it

[NecroTheReaper]

So a back throw OS is only applicable in crossup scenarios?

Are they toying w our emotions again? Announcements in near future...maybe...hopefully...baiken lol

I can't think of an another reason to use 4P+Hs that is isnt just FD... so nah probably not. Someone else could clarify this, though. Maybe Bedman, but with the change to 6Hs, that might be more dangerous than it's worth.

[Pomparomp]

Clashing with a DP and triggering dangertime danger time lets you RC the dp :|

[NecroTheReaper]

Eh... why would you RC it when you could just cancel it into FD?

[Pomparomp]

I was under the impression cancelling out of clashes was for normals only, turns out i'm very wrong.

[Destin]

Back in the day, in certain scenarios where you thought you would get clash, you could enter in double dp.  Outside of execution not a huge reason not to, and it would blow through any post clash button they pressed.
