Quick Turn To Block.

[Emulsion]

Probably something simple that I have missed or over looked, but how do you turn quick to guard? I start getting annoyed when Ayane, Kasumi, Lisa, etc... attack or knock me down, jump over me and attack from behind. I have seen other players do it. A fair few times I have used Christie's 4P+H to spin them round and they turn pretty much instantly to block.

I think it's just hitting the guard button, but I could be wrong. I have the same problem you do.

Simply hold . From back turned it is the command to turn around.

Cheers. I have always been holding back to block, rather than H to Block. That's why I missed it.

If I'm not mistaken, it takes 5 frames to turn around, so you won't start blocking until 5 frames after you press and hold H.

You can also turn around while crouching with , avoiding high strikes and throws. Back turned crouching takes only 1 frame, i.e. it's faster than front turned crouching.

Thanks for the extra info.

You can press to guard but you can also use or depending on which way your back is turned to this way you are not only going to block but aso create some space between you and your opponent making your opponent's next move wiff.

Creating some space as well as blocking sounds good to me. I'll give it a try.

Thanks.
