When you go from the back sway to practicing on the dummy are you cancelling the back sway by sidestepping again? If so is this more useful than cancelling the sidestep sway by hitting up back after tapping back from ss1? Ive got a few questions but think this is a good one to start with
@cactuarkid1469
27 күн бұрын
Yes I'm cancelling the back sway by sidestepping into the background for hayashida step into back sway and repeat this is more evasive and spaces more distance. Going into up bk (I'm assuming her backflip) is more of an example of how much can be done from cancels. It can be dangerous if your opponent makes a read. But the traditional hayashida step movement is quicker and more safer because she recovers faster. Let me know if I have answered your question

I recommend practicing directional inputs slowly, you will know you done the back sway as Nina will perform the animation and same advise for the sidestep 1 cancels. Ik it sounds a little counter intuitive but your working for muscle memory and becoming comfortable with the input. It will take time to get used to but with dedication to learning it will become a breeze. Trust me I remember learning wavedash and electrics

Hey, a question. If SS1 -> cancel -> df1+2 is the plan, for the cancel part, I see players slightly differ as in, "SS1 -> b, bu-->df1,2" vs "SS1 -> b,bu,u -> df1,2" . Looks like the backsway motion cancels on both uf OR u input. Do you think it makes frame difference including UP command or not?
@cactuarkid1469
6 ай бұрын
In the clip I did the cancels as basic demonstration for SS1 in between strings, it doesn't matter what string really as long as you have some idea on why you want to utilise a particular string. Play around with the cancels and experiment. The cancels themselves are as a fast as you can cancel them. Some strings are risky to cancel from so be sure to check the frame data displayed I do up method because ergonomically it's closer to holding back or down back for defending. Uf can be risky as not consistently precise by nature as you could potentially get a fwd sway. Hope this helps answer your question

@@cactuarkid1469 hey, thank you for your reply. For some reason youtube didn't send me notification. I think I asked a question in a wrong way with wrong notation initials and confusing for you. instead of "BU", I should've used "UB" (upback). Let me try again. I use fight stick, for snake shot loop, I use SS1->QCU (b, u/b, u) instead of (b, u) To cancel out of SS1 to mix up with other move like db3, 1. SS1-> b, u/b, up -> db3. (this goes into another ss motion on last UP tap) 2. SS1-> b, u/b -> db3. I noticed finishing the directional stick at upback instead of Up free up Nina quickly than going into another SS.

is Hayashida step better than Korean backdash for Nina?
@cactuarkid1469
6 ай бұрын
It's dependent on the situation you are in. Backdash distance is nerfed but it still blocks high and mids. But hayashida can block lows and sometimes create whiffs on slow chunky mids given the correct read. But the spacing aspect is faster but at the cost that it's not a straight line and hypothetically you could step in a corner and become pressured
