I compiled my thoughts into a random twitter thread
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:12 AM
You’re doing gods work.
KrackatoaToday at 1:12 AM
Just for STP
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:13 AM
But I agree. S tele is really strong. Do you think it will become less so as people become more accustomed to Faust’s?
KrackatoaToday at 1:18 AM
No.
[1:18 AM]
My eyes see all.
[1:19 AM]
They might get better at defending themselves
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:19 AM
Although. Potemkin hurts.
KrackatoaToday at 1:19 AM
But I'm talking about it as if they already can
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:19 AM
He can grab you at ANY point with the super buster
KrackatoaToday at 1:19 AM
Jump. :V
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:20 AM
No no. I mean. Of you 246 S , he can snatch you out of invisible air
KrackatoaToday at 1:20 AM
You have 6f of throw invuln on wakeup, and potential out of blockstun. I would use it.
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:20 AM
With his leaping super. Forget name
KrackatoaToday at 1:21 AM
Right, but you PRC on the ground.
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:21 AM
I could be confused. But I’m 99% positive he can connect it prior thr the PRC
KrackatoaToday at 1:21 AM
Like, S Teleport leaves you invisible right in front of pot on the ground
[1:21 AM]
And the PRC window comes so quickly that he can't possibly react in time to do heavenly
[1:22 AM]
So he would be doing random yolo heavenly
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:22 AM
It might have been. But I was playing one player who caught me twice in one match, a third in another
KrackatoaToday at 1:22 AM
I'm talking about PRCing out of the startup of the teleport
[1:23 AM]
Not PRCing post impact
[1:23 AM]
Well, I'm talking about both
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:24 AM
Maybe I’m talking out of my ass as I’m trying to relearn how to..talk about fighters.
KrackatoaToday at 1:25 AM
Well, in this case, are you PRCing at the top of the screen?
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:25 AM
All I’m saying is of you pull it out, and it’s S, tele, Potemkin can grab you I think prior to PRC
KrackatoaToday at 1:26 AM
Unless you got some footage I just can't believe that unless the move is super super super oddly programmed.
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:27 AM
I’ll see if I can find it. I intentionally saved anything I thought might be useful to the players better than I. And remembered this as odd and frustrating punish
KrackatoaToday at 1:27 AM
This sounds like you're not PRCing teleport immediately upon the movement happening.
[1:28 AM]
Because Faust is stationary, and in 1 frame he moves right in front of the opponent, and if you PRC it puts you in a grounded PRC animation smack dap in front of them for 7 frames
[1:30 AM]
So unless he has some magic throwable box throughout the duration of him being hidden, at the top of the screen, even then it shouldn't work.(edited)
[1:30 AM]
Unless Pot does a super random heavenly
[1:30 AM]
It sounds like you're doing S Teleport, Pot is reacting, doing HPB, and he grabs you during the downwards followup
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:30 AM
Yeah ok. You very well may be right. The way it felt was that he did infact have an magical box you can’t see, hence why I mentioned it.
KrackatoaToday at 1:31 AM
At which point you can't PRC to ground.
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:31 AM
Yeah. Very possible. You’re likely right.
[1:31 AM]
I’ll try revisiting it and seeing if I can recreate it/find the video.
KrackatoaToday at 1:31 AM
Have you tried STP > Fast PRC > Grab yet?
[1:32 AM]
I really don't think that's HPBusterable
[1:32 AM]
If it is... damn
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:32 AM
No not yet actually. Just the PRC aspect
KrackatoaToday at 1:32 AM
The mix I'm talking about involves three things
[1:34 AM]
S.TP > Immediate PRC > Grab (Unreactable full screen grab)
S.TP > Let it follow through > RC on hit (Can punish attempts to beat the above setup and other teleports)
S.TP > Let it follow through > PRC on block > Mix them up.
[1:35 AM]
The problem for them is most of the punishes to this attempt are hard reads
[1:36 AM]
They can't react to the PRC Grab attempt vs. letting it rip
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:36 AM
Got it. So maybe I was reacting too slowly
[1:36 AM]
As I wasn’t trying to grab
KrackatoaToday at 1:37 AM
Ah, it's not a reaction.
[1:37 AM]
The PRC grab happens almost instantly
[1:37 AM]
You just... instantly appear in front of the opponent and scoop em
[1:37 AM]
I'll see if I can find a clip
GeorgeLiquorToday at 1:37 AM
K so I probably wasn’t doing it right then. Hence the confusion on my part.
