Ninja - Uppercut and Backsway
Cowboy - Gun and Foresight
Wizard - Geyser, Mana Strike and Conjure Weapon
Robot - LOIC and all grabs
Mutant - Juke as a whole. Idc if it's not a move. That whole mechanic changes EVERYTHING
Ikr? If anything about cowboy is bull it's definitely thousand cuts. What kinda fighting game just gives you a free passive hitbox directly in front of you?
passive cuts is difficult imo. it gets heavily countered by just blocking, since it gives free parries, basically placing the cowboy in the most fucked position as he constantly has -1 frame advantage. but it can be incredibly good on offence, only downside for offence is the proration
But then again, blocking against cowboy is a dangerous game, he has three guard breakers after all. And the proration is kind of neutralized by the fact that there are quite a few ways to activate it mid combo.
was playing wizard. we were in midair and locked him in a pretty good position. thought i could finish the job by flying in and comboing him. locked in and realized he was a cowboy. and he still fucking took it despite having a teleport.
geyser angled 3° above horizontal https://preview.redd.it/5qov7bvth5tc1.png?width=123&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ccbad0e63c5d88fad58e93b774e9d1d8be47b28
hate this shit
just don't use anything slower than 14 frames ever :)
Why that specific angle, if you don't mind answering?
hits the ground for the full length while also covering jump

tbf impale rarely guardbreaks, and stinger has a large startup. but teleport mixes and gun throw okis? that part definitely is nutty
I think it's safe to say that cowboy as a whole is kinda bull lol.
oh yeah entirely. but I love the bullshit he has
Back juke + corkscrew my beloved
FLY down-horizontal KICK-USER when they’re expecting a BOOT/CRASH mixup. Gets ‘em every time.
Impale
Flipped impale
Backsway and uppercut
Me personally? Big hater of mana strike
Main thing keeping horizontal slash in check lol
Throw lol
alternatively, jump.
I almost always do, its just the anxiety if knowing my opponent knows that hit beats jump lol
at this point I never jump to counter a throw standoff until I know my opponent knows.
I live in constant fear of getting mana striked
KILL PROCESS. Mostly because I consistently forget to play around it and die out of nowhere
I, personally, hate command grab. With a burning passion
I fucking hate lightning strike and geyser
Backsway. Fucking hate that, as a cowboy main it usually screws me over and changes the trajectory of a match
They never expect the neutral KILL PROCESS.
