Another point I'm surprised you didn't cover is parries are a universal counter, why would you use a counter that costs meter and has super flash when you have one available in parry? Yes you need to guess high or low on oki but it's still significantly less risky than using a counter super that has a guaranteed punish if you bait it.

On Guilty Gear, there are 2 major counter super exist, both don't have super flash/freeze on startup but activated on confirmed parry. Baiken counter super accessed by inputting the super on her sword parry animation on block (S+H) which is very difficult but technically a reactive super, while Anji counter just give tinge of sound effects upon activation which most of the time its too late to react to the super. EDIT: After re-watching, I realized another factor. Anji counter super on Strive has 2 possible followup. There are maximum vertical and horizontal distance on initiating effects to determine the followup, within the effective vertical distance (IAD for example) the animation will lock on until completion, when the attack came outside of the effective vertical and horizontal distance, it will turn into whiff punishable attack with decent reach to punish half screen distance at best but not much on upper hitbox.

@@NoirLouisStream since you brought up Guilty Gear, I remember Hakumen's counter super in BlazBlue Calamity Trigger used to have this super flash/freeze during startup. they changed it to happen during parry confirms in second installment of BB and onwards, but they kept he big red circle that signifies it being counter super (as opposed to the smaller white circles on his normal counter moves)

The last point is a really important thing developer's don't always seem to understand. If a game has moves with full invincibilty, a counter is almost always WORSE, because the counter won't come out if the opponent isn't hitting, and fully invincible moves can be used in the same situations and more. It's especially bad when counters don't work against throws and projectiles, while invincible attacks do. The few edges counters may have is if they trigger grab-like moves that work every time, like in KOF. That means they may work in rare cases that just invincible moves would whiff, and they can counter from any range without falling out. In KOF there are a few anti-air counters that are useful for this reason, when DPs may trade or whiff against some jump arcs, the counter always triggers the hit. SF has always seemed a bit strange to me how for a lot of supers the victims can just fall out, whereas in KOF very few supers do that, and most attack barrages are basically a cinematic that's guaranteed if the first hit connects without trading.

This is why SNK's supers are better you still get complete hits even if the opponent is in mid-air and Freeman actually just walks towards you when he does he counter super and Daimon's counter super can be used in HD combos though it gives 2 hits only. Btw, it's a great video.

Posted this elsewhere but thought it was interesting enough for a discussion on the issues with counters; they often lack the utility needed to validate using these over a dp in sf. Sf counters tend to be terrible because they’re incredibly limited. In garou, Rock Howard gets a counter and an invincible dp. You’d question why use the counter when the dp has more going for it on account of it not needing you’re opponent to attack to make it work, except the counters have a lot of utility behind them. They build meter really well on whiff for a character that really wants meter., and have next to no recovery on a generally turtly character. On counter hit they cause a spin which can let you combo after for extra damage on a character with bad damage and this is hit confirmable because when it’s a normal hit it hard knockdown for oki. And lastly Rocks DP is a charge motion. This adds some dichotomy to them as the need for charge makes it so you can’t use it for a panic move but it can be used offensively as well. Rock has tons of reasons to use his counters despite the overlap because there’s situational merit to using it over a dp in a situation. In street fighter who would ever use cross counter even ignoring parries? You could either take damage and maybe hit a jump in, or land a dp that’s fully invincible. Why pick ultra 2 with Fei long? Everything you’d possibly want to choose two for sans animations available in his ultra 1. And he still has a dp for that sort of issue anyway. These options are completely skewed.

I think Kolin is the first SF character to have a meaningful counter because of its frames, since it starts at 2 frames and most pressure in SFV is based around 3 frame moves (DPs included), so it actually has an edge over certain DPs when it comes to disrespecting pressure if you have the right read, all while doing quite a bit of damage, it also makes your opponent pressure sub optimally, making the match go back to neutral, which is where she shines anyway. Gill's parry works very similar to this as well, heck, even Ryu has a somewhat useful parry since it let's him navigate through fireballs with ease, but that's not really a counter in the mechanical sense

It’s kinda like Xrd Axl where its literal only edge over just DPing is that it does more meterless damage when you land it, but at least Axl gets to have both instead of just picking the better one literally every match

@WHATISUTUBE

Cooler in DBFZ has a counter super. It works on everything in the game except grabs and will always connect because Cooler will teleport to his opponent and it freezes them.

It's not just the Universal Overheads that have the mid-air locking issue - a lot of reactable moves that this would work well against are considered airborne. Shoto tatsus, Yun's dash punch, Elena's Rhino Horn, Remy's divekick, Sean's Wheel Kick and Hugo's dropkick/butt shoot/leaping headbutt are some moves that fall under this. Also some moves just blow through it entirely. Urien headbutt, Yun's bicycle kicks and Ibuki's neckbreaker slide are moves that blow throw it, I'm sure there's plenty of other moves that do. It's so bad even when you guess right.

Something that would make this super significantly better is if it was available in his other Super Arts like a Raging Demon. I wonder what would replace it as SA3 tho, maybe the command grab version that is in 4rd Strike?

1:03 That never made sense to me, putting a freeze on a counter, which is supposed to be unexpected. ALL Capcom fighting games with counters have that issue. Deadpool’s 4th-Wall Crisis and Taskmaster’s Aegis Counter from UMVC3 stand out to me. Imagine if Smash Bros had Counter Final Smashes. And the idea of selecting a counter and telegraphing it to your opponent is the dressing on the dirt pile.

The reason for that is that it has no start-up (1 frame?) and almost "absorbs" nearby attacks with a weirdly large "hurtbox".

Sometimes things in a game don't work and they just never mess with it again after a game version breaks it or if no one pushes on it. Joe's ranbu drops in kof vs the kyokugen characters comes to mind. Plus a counter super in a game with generic parries is DOA.

The comparison with Daimon’s counter super really goes to show that, as good as 3rd Strike is, it’s still an old ass fighting game and newer games like KoF XIII are able to make certain design choices better than it with the benefit of hindsight.

I actually play a lot of Remy, and frankly I wouldn't say he's under balanced he's just not a good fit for SF3. I believe Big Yellow said "He's in the wrong game." I agree, his sonic booms for zoning don't really work when you can have them parried and give your opponent meter. I tend to use his okay buttons baiting jump ins for flash kicks, but then again parrying also stops this when they empty jump. He's awkward to play in this game, though I enjoy his playstyle.

So as far as counter-supers go, I've seen one game do a very good job about it. Urban Legend in Limbo (and the psudo-sequel, Antimony of Common Flowers, which was basically the same game but with assists and a few extra characters, and without the weird orb gimmick). Only one character has a counter-super: Byakuren. It's actually even more pronounced than Blue Nocturne, having a super-freeze AND requiring you to declare your intent to use it before use. However, another one of her mechanics interacts with it. Byakuren can throw some kind of throwing weapon (I can't honestly tell what it is) as her basic bullet attacks. If they hit or are deflected by an enemy projectile, they bounce upwards and can be caught by Byakuren. If she catches one, her next use of that attack throws 2. However, if she catches one while using the counter-super, it goes off even if the opponent did not hit you. And since the counter-super is a big honkin laser blast, it can do a great job as a combo ender if you know a good enough setup.

Any less than that will make people not want to use it even if they don't have a DP.

Hello, if you want to see how Remy should have been as a character in 3rd Strike check how he plays in 4rd Strike Arranged Edition and notice how much better he is: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dGWel81vite9ndI.html

Remy’s biggest problem is his charge inputs. If he had the exact same moves but as motions he’d actually have some of the best damage in the game with incredible space control tools. Which tas videos show is possible already but not humanly due to the charge partitioning being impossible for people. It’s impressive how good Remy theoretically is, and is low tier primarily because of his inputs completely shackling how good his kit could be.

@@Neogears1312 I mean, that is the point of charge motions. The moves themselves are flat better than most comparable moves in the game because the motion is inherently limiting them in was a 236 motion isn’t

wtf this came out in July 2021, i never saw it until now.

I completely forgot Remy even HAD this super lol

Could there be a bad balance on Æ Yun?

I'd second this, I hear horror stories of AE twins but I came into sf4 in 2012

@@AmeriKameVictor the funniest part is that Capcom even gave him a winquote that pokes fun at how *absurd* they made him: "Cheap? Don't you know how much I paid for this cap?"

Blue Nocturne is for baiting parries and punish by buffering.

Think of how much better he would be if this was just his shippu. And if you miss the confirm the counter comes out

Remy funny enough one a French national a couple years ago. So by all accounts; remy is viable. I think he’s needlessly shackled by being a charge character but there’s no denying you can get mileage out of him. He’s just got some glaring weaknesses

some Guilty Gear characters have the mechanic of parry super like you described. Hope you check out Strive!

I've spent years assuming I understood why this super was bad. It turns out, I was _naive._

If they re-balanced this game everyone would immediately flock to it which is sadly the reason they will not re-balance it.

This guy is so cool

Sometimes you’ll blue nocturne something and get punished for it. Is you BN the 1st hit of Shin Sho, the rest of the super will connect before you can start the counter flurry.

As bad as it is, im happy a counter super is in the game to experiment with at all. Notably on a hypothetical multi-hit attack in the unlikely scenario where you parry all hits except the last and use blue nocturne to punish for minimum damage.

Honestly, the biggest issue with it is just that parrying does the exact same thing for better reward with lower risk. Counter supers are innately redundant in a game with universal parry.

Wooot

they should bring Remy back, cool design

I'm not really familiar with SF3, but how much better do you think S.A.3 would be if it had 3 stocks and worked against projectiles, would that be balanced?

It would merely have the same amount of ex stocks as sa2 while still being almost impossible to land in a match. Baf didn’t mention in this vid that blue nocturne is accepted as the worst super in the game so for it to be good it would need major changes. Making it work vs jump ins would be a start...

This move almost seems like it exists just to fill out Remy's movelist because he needed a third super so, in an effort not to undermine his character, they gave him a third super that is completely irrelevant compared to his other options because those already work well enough for him. Things like a short, single stock super meter is evidence of this when his other supers have longer meters with two stocks. They recognize how practical his EX moves are and how useful his first two supers are so they are literally dissuading players from bothering with his third super, which provides none of these benefits.
