Free Step Dodge

And I've grabbed Ein between his kicks in 214K at least twice

Some specific moves from stances can be grabbed as natural because they are immediately shifting to another stance while in neutral. For example, you can neutral throw Rig's 6KK into bending. Literally will work from the middle every single time.

strike recovery frames = throwable m8 no matter how dumb it looks like, check out the move details

I mean something like this

Helena got grabbed between the 2nd and 3rd punches of that 3-in-1

@WAZAAAAA I thought recovery frames didn't matter if another strike in the string was coming

they matter

So hypothetically if a character has a string like KK and there's 6 frames between the K's where P1 is in recovery and P2 is active for whatever reason like they crouched under the first strike, P2 can successfully throw P1 before the second K comes out even if P1 inputted KK?

You learn something new every day

ye a possible scenario can be run > throw in the middle of their whiffed delayed string

Hmm... I don't think so in that case. For example, Naotora's K has 24 recovery frames, but if she does KK (even if max delayed) and you crouched the first K then you can't throw her before the second K comes out, you'll get HiC hit.
When doing KK (or whatever) there are not recovery frames until the string ends/is cancelled as far as I know.

@Nikotsumi that is not the case https://i.imgur.com/7VfC5MM.gif

When I tried that I got HiC every single time lol.
You can really learn something new every day.

Wait, I'm dumb. When delaying a follow up I thought it would only affect the start-up frames, instead it adds recovery frames on the previous move of the string as well (in which you can be thrown). I've never noticed this on the move details until now.

I wouldn't risk it against Helena. XD if I'm fighting her, I rather just space her out tbh

Though slightly different from the Helena case. Never knew about that. For a minute I thought Chap was talking about specifics in stances that you can throw them out of.

Rig's 6KK / 2Ting Hayate's wind dash etc etc.

Alpha-152's 236236T can sometimes beat strings like that even though it's not an OH because of the high crusher frames. That's probably the most common scenario too.
