Why doesn't this work?

[Ladd-Russo]

I was in training mode earlier today messing around with naoto and i found a pretty neat fuzzy guard setup she can do during okizeme.

However, when I tried recording the setup and using it on myself it didn't work. Can anyone tell me why this is? Any help is appreciated.

What didn't work when you tried it on yourself?

It could be like Blazblue where the training dummy always wakes up with a standing animation even when you set them to crouch block. Mu can get some training-mode only fuzzy guards this way, for example. Anyway, if you want to do the real fuzzy guard on Narukami, just do deep jC > rising jAAAA etc.

Oh. Okay, thanks.

I came across this months ago too and thought I hit gold, until I did some extensive testing on this. Basically, its not really a training mode/dummy only thing exactly. If you crouch (holding either 2 or 3 instead of 1 aka downback) this will hit even a human controlled character. But thats the thing, it doesn't work on anyone actually crouch blocking, aka its not viable at all. Probably has something to do with the change in hitbox size when a person goes from a regular crouching state compared to a crouch blocking state. As for it working on the dummy even though you held downback, i'd say its exactly what Zeromus said. Training mode can be silly.
