Practice mode doesn't mention this anywhere, but there are moves that has backturn state built into them that activates before the move itself. Most of the moves that puts you on BT work like this:
Move happens > character enters BT. These moves can be parried because you're parrying the move before the character entering the backturn state
But in Xiaoyu's case, it is the opposite. It's backturn first, then the move happens, this move is not the only one but some characters has them like
Lili's standing 3 (stop with the ankle bs)
Reina's b4
Xiaoyu's b3
This isn't a bug, it's just that you can't parry BT kicks
@SebboTK no, I meant an attack button. In some games, you can't just hold back or db you need to also hold the x button. I think you'd hate playing those games lol
@SebboTK yeah it's just unfortunately not about your last input, it's about your current input. Imagine if we had to hold a button to block like other fighting games. I think mk makes you hold x
@SebboTK the inconsistency is coming from inputs, or lack thereof, from your controller. You have the power to block or not block. I get where you're coming from. Getting hit when you're getting the correct read is annoying, but tekken is more than just one good read. It's also execution
@SebboTK you're thinking about it as the attacker deserving the reward of hitting you. I'm thinking of it as the defender not defending correctly and therefore deserves to be hit. I see where you're coming from, but they threw out keepout and you tried to make it whiff. That's on you
@BathedinBrena yeah gamestop is pretty dead atm, ebay has no reason to accept this offer. What would gamestop even offer to them? Feels like a hail mary
@8BitClosedFist I think Mortal Kombat has the simplest controls, but when people think of skill floor, they usually are biased to what they're used to. My vote is Mortal Kombat tho
@Ruenaan I mean like idc fr, but I wouldn't really know why lili is too weak? I know you're talking in comparison to bryan and anna, but is there something she's lacking?
