No.
It just seems too slow no matter what. I tried counter-hit start, Crouching start, counter-hit crouching start, all with no result.
I feel like I may have just gotten to used to BB leniency or something...
OK, so I'm new to P4U, and for the life of me I cannot get the first combo on the combo list to work. Am I just so out of practice that I can't push buttons or am I missing something?
This isn't really fast enough to catch them COMPLETELY off guard (like a mist cancel throw), but you could probably pull it off at least once as a gimmick against someone.
Not really a mindgame, though.
