So I’m new to fighters and I want to try to pick up Jp and I looked up a combo guide for him and I’m confused as to what xx is. I heard it’s canceling but how would I go about doing this? For ex. B. MP > MP xx QCF+MP. How would this cancel work? Like what buttons do I press and when?

#

Medium Punch cancelled into QCF+MP

#

Where QCF stands for quarter circle forward

#

Down, down forward, forward

#

And as soon as you hit forward, you simultaneously also press MP

#

Think of back when arcades were how you played these games. The stick would be moved quarter of a circle ( 6pm 5pm 4pm 3pm clock analogy if that helps)

#

Nowadays there a lot of shortcuts to do QCF but you should learn the full motion first

#

There is also QCB which is quarter circle back

#

so xx QCF+MP is cancel QCF with MP?

#

#

Both are one special move

#

Qcf is what you are doing with your left hand, and MP is your right hand

ioh

#

my bad

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:09 AM

#

But your right hand presses MP just as you finish QCF (pressing forward)

#

mp is just medium attack button?

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:10 AM

#

Yes.

#

It would still work with LP or HP

#

But your combo guides wants you to use the MP version of that special

#

Other special moves might use a kick button

#

so how do i cancel the mp then?

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

You do the QCF+MP right as you hit your opponent with your first MP

uncut cove Jun 12, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

ok so it just cancels the animation?

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:11 AM

#

You can get technical in terms of recovery frames but for now just get a feel for it

#

Just do it as fast as possible

#

uncut cove ok so it just cancels the animation?

It cancels the recovery part of the animation of your first MP

uncut cove Jun 12, 2023, 2:12 AM

#

ok

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:12 AM

#

If you cancel before you hit (startup frames) or right as you hit (active frames), it won’t come out

#

Think of it as an actual jab in real life

#

You pull back (startup), you hit (active), you bring your hand back to original position (recovery)

#

You cancel into supers during the recovery

#

so i do have a qustion that is seperate from this. would it be helpful to get a stick controller? or is controler fine?

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:14 AM

#

Use directional pad on your controller

#

It’s fine

#

Many pros out there with controller

uncut cove Jun 12, 2023, 2:14 AM

#

can you block with that?

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:14 AM

#

It actually had advantages over stick

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:14 AM

#

uncut cove can you block with that?

Yes just hold back or down back on the dpad

uncut cove Jun 12, 2023, 2:15 AM

#

ok so you would need to hold both the left and bottom button?

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:15 AM

#

Yes

uncut cove Jun 12, 2023, 2:15 AM

#

ok i was just curious

#

also do you know anything about mortal K?

#

just wondering if this game is similar to mortal kombat because i want to use this game to help me prepare for that.

opaque sparrow Jun 12, 2023, 2:48 AM

#

Yes and no

#

The fundamentals are similar

#

If you get good at SF, it will definitely transfer over

#

But mechanically they are very different
