Tips
- 0
Interrupt Hwoarang's Flamingo pressure with your i10 jab (1) or i13 df+1, as many of his transitions leave him vulnerable to fast mid checks.
- 0
When Hwoarang uses d+3,4 to enter Right Flamingo Stance (RFS), be aware he is +8g to +10g on block; do not challenge his immediate follow-ups.
- 0
Use b+1 to track Hwoarang if he attempts to sidestep your pressure, as it tracks SSR/SWR completely and is safe at -6.
- 0
If Hwoarang whiffs a heavy kick, use the long-range f,F+2 (Demon's Paw) to punish or engage Heat, as it starts up in i15~16.
- 0
Hwoarang's RFF 3~4 (Backlash) is a power crush that is +4 to +7 on block; avoid pressing buttons if you see the blue sparks and wait for the recovery.
- 0
Launch Hwoarang's Sky Rocket (CD.4) with ws2 or d+3+4, as it is heavily punishable at -18 on block.
- 0
Use db+2 (Malicious Mace) to poke at Hwoarang's legs; it is i21~22 and leaves you at +3c on hit, making it difficult for him to start Flamingo pressure.
