    DOA5U Throw Punishing

    It depends. Ppl like Christie can afford to do frame advantage throws because of her speed and lack of throw damage. She is NOT meant to do it from throw punishing tho. Her 7 frame throw is her punish throw, and it should be used as such. For her, her 4T can be used from neutral or from HiC for...

    THE STRONGEST THREAD IN THE WORLD (The LEON Thread)

    Fork, I didn't mean to say that he plays like Bayman. Bayman just seems to have more options than Leon, considering their speeds. Leon's style is basically "strikes and desert falcon". Maybe I just have a few issues with him trying to be in-your-face offense. He's slow for a strike character...

    Why Do You Main Christie?

    Care to elaborate? Or are you just summarizing what I said?

    THE STRONGEST THREAD IN THE WORLD (The LEON Thread)

    I see why ppl gravitate to Rachel already. Do Leon's charge moves make a big difference? It seems like his (kick) charges can be seen easily. I'm gonna guess also that Leon has a big focus on environment, from his air throws. I kinda wish he had more to offer, like Bayman, but do ppl pick him...

    "Did you enjoy my full course of technique" - Leifang General Strategy Thread

    I have very similar questions about her in terms of her playstyle. I feel like a deer in headlights when I get her in random, but she does intrigue me. I'm curious to know how variable her playstyle can be. She rly is a character I just don't get. I know her pokes, her stuns, but then...I get a...

    THE STRONGEST THREAD IN THE WORLD (The LEON Thread)

    I can't help but compare Leon to Rachel in terms of playstyles. There must be something that I am not seeing. What differentiates these two?

    Where's the love for this skinhead Canadian?

    I am interested in looking into Rig. I just found out his throw damage is nonexistent, but he seems like he can breathe down your neck a lot (pressure). He's not very safe, but he seems like he can be very annoying with his mixups. I'm trying to figure out how to play a beginner Rig; all I got...

    Bayman Q/A

    So I got a Q. How often should I be landing advanced holds and OHs? I'm currently playing him as a interrupt/power/ground grab/backbreaker character, not sure what other strats I should be using so far. Is there a list of his guaranteed ground grabs? It sucks that not all of them are guaranteed.

    Why Do You Main Christie?

    I wish there were more character-specific versions of this thread. But anyway guys, I'm gonna repost this from another thread: "Throw in costumes, cool factor, looks, some story stuff, etc. and you have a mess to choose from, right? Well, it took some years, even after playing online A LOT, and...

    DOA5U Bass General Discussion: Champion Edition

    Damn, caught me red-handed. I barely played DOA5 and just started on ultimate. Bass is NOT my character. I just saw what I saw when I picked random casually and posted. I should have tried harder to see where it could have been posted already. It must have been cool when the TFBB shortcuts were...

    Kay, seriously, how do i get back up?

    There's a tutorial piece in the game that touches on grounded state. It suggests to mash the Hold button to get back up, optionally while pressing a direction. If there's a throw/hold that gives you trouble, see if the AI can tech. If it can, then it's just a matter of practice to tech throws/holds.

    Characters and Playstyles

    Man, this thread is probably my greatest idea ever! You guys are fucking awesome; I appreciate all of the work in these posts so far. Too bad no one's touched on my faves yet, but this thread does give me ideas on what to look for in characters when I try them out. After looking in this thread...

    System Stun types?

    There'a also the new fancy VF5S additions described in this thread: http://freestepdodge.com/threads/list-of-vf5fs-gameplay-additions-to-5u.3338/ As far as stun types, there aren't really categories. But if it helps, you can remember them as three kinds: shallow (ex: most characters' 3k)...

    Changes in DOA5U

    If that's the case, then great. I basically JUST started exploring this game, and I can only go by my newbie/DOA4 experience. I look forward to exploring everything that DOA5U has to offer. I still do wonders what it was that they saw wrong with DOA5 Vanilla's ground game tho. This is a new...

    Changes in DOA5U

    I don't want to be a downer, but why did they Jeff the ground game? Did they say why? I don't want to believe it's because a lot of casual players (meaning players who will drop the game after playing a couple of weeks) complained about it. I prefer additions to subtractions. I think fighters...

    DOA5U Bass General Discussion: Champion Edition

    I'm not sure if this piece of info is anywhere here for Bass, but I found an easy way to do TFBB. 66 41236T, as in forward dash, and do his half-circle catch grab. You can do the whole thing in one shot for TFBB, or you can pause in between (a decent-length pause will still allow the grab). Tina...

    Hurricane Tina Has Hit FSD - A Tina Breakdown

    I always hear her saying Tina Psycho! (like "I'm going to overkill you with throw damage") Anyway, I'm not sure if people are sleeping on this info, or if its just not that useful, but I found out the bolded piece of info for myself. Just dash and do 214T for JOC? Yes plz. Have the small army...
