Command throws
This is more a rant than anything. I have 68 hours in this game and not looking to improve really... I just go into battle hub and try my best to win.
I play Luke and haven't touched this game in 2 years after I got platinum rank, which is nothing special.
I just don't understand neutral in this game with command throw characters. They are a hard read with jump, duck or OD. Obviously if they are in your face range 0 you can anticipate it more, but then it's a guess between command or normal throw - and how fast is a jump? Surely lots of other options beat this with ease - considering how fast recovery is on a lot of normals, opponent can just whiff and anti-air
I just checked the replay of a an E Honda Master that beat me and his command throw is 6f fast? I especially hate Manon. I was beaten by Marisa smurf 27 times who abused this on me, but he was good so I was not mad at all 😆
I am a little peeved about getting knowledged checked by Master players using modern controls and un-droppable combos. Maybe I will learn, but defense in this game just feels so bad that i'm kinda uninterested.
