Whiffing mainly used to lesson the recovery of a longer recovery move in MB,
Hammering in both games may be looked upon differently?
GG, has more options on Hammering someone then MB persay, So GG Hammering requires more of a mix UP, and GG can hMmer a bit fall back a bit but still maintian the offensive, whiel MB has to keep the hammer going hoping ur oppoenent so happen to miss a low or high block, or tick throw.
GG just has more options of the high low, where in MB most characters only have like 1 type of overhead or throw or what not.. so MB has to keep the offensive on and hard to actually get an opening, more of a pace thing? while GG is more of mind games and tricks? MB has mind games too, just i think it doenst' have enough high low game sometimes :X
