Thanks for this Mainman 🙏 This is a very imp technique for many matchups. Saint has put a lot of emphasis on this.

After spending a lot of time learning what fuzzy guarding actually is I can say that this is a very solid explanation. Hopefully this helps people who, like me, just became very confused by the huge amount of different definitions for fuzzy guarding that you can find online

These guides are so helpful. I love seeing this kind of content!

Grammar police; Fuzzy guarding is specifically for these (mids highs or mid lows with different timings where-with good timing-you can guard both) Option selecting includes fuzzy guarding but also stuff like reversals, sidesteps, special commands, basically, any time in a matchup where your character can “take” a 50/50 away from your opponents tool kit.

​ @K1V0 one that springs to mind is Gigas'd RD mixup. It's a true 50/50 for alot of the roster, but not-for instance-Paul, Jin and Akuma (and some others). Paul can "truly" option select it by inputting backsway and holding back; If high, the backsway makes the high whiff, if mid, the mid is blocked. If neither, Paul is in neutral. It is a true option select and Gigas can do nothing about it (except not use his rage drive in that match).

If you want a better example of a good fuzzy guard use, it's versus Law. His Junkyard string and its variations is something you either fuzzy parry or die to.

@EternalSilverDragon

Жыл бұрын

Tbh, that's not a very good example of fuzzy guarding at all. As TMM said, fuzzy guarding is when you defend against a "mix-up" by exploiting the different timings of the mix-up options = standing at the right timing to block the mid option and ducking at the right timing to either block a low option or duck under a high option. After Law's b+2 (the start of junkyard), the 2nd hit is always a low or a high and there is no mid option (and therefore no mix-up), so you just low parry. That's an option select, but not a fuzzy. This string's actually a bit more complicated than just that... but it's not fuzzy guarding or fuzzy parrying because Law has no mid option. The only part that even comes close to fuzzy guarding is the last hits of b+2,3,4 (mid) and b+2,3,d+4 (low). But that low can be blocked on reaction, which negates the need for fuzzy guarding.

I never knew about this, but I did see many players do it. This should be explaining in-game, like the stagger recovery in Virtua Fighter.

The replay feature had some wild conditioning with Geese

This is why Tekken is the greatest game ever! You always learn something new when playing tekken, it's like an endless ocean!

If you fuzzy guarded and punished right, the low won't even come out. The reason you want to punish fast is cause ff2 by itself is like -15. fuzzy guarded into punish will punish all option

Fuzzy Guard in a nutshell is Anticipation of your opponent's moves, the speed/frame of the opponent's move/mixup, training your reflexes to blocking it accordingly depending on the speed of the move/mixup that's it pretty much to boom overview hopefully understood this it's a Easy Money Meme Hah..

hmm thank you tmm i understand how it works, a move that seems like a 50-50 ones a fast attack ones slow stand guard everything but when you see the slow you block basically dont worry about the fast attack just stand guard and focus only on the slower one so you can react and block it

@EternalSilverDragon

Жыл бұрын

No, you do not react to the slower option. That's the whole point of fuzzy guarding = you don't have to rely on your reactions. Even the slower option is too fast to react to. You get used to the timing difference between the two options and then you quickly move between standing guard and crouching guard with the correct timing (you have to get the feel for it by practicing) to win against either option without having to react to either one.

@@BakedConjurer5 Yes, that's it exactly. As you practice more and more it becomes muscle memory. Different strings have different timings so practice against the strings you want to get good at fuzzy guarding. One that I like to use is Jin's 2,1,4 (fast mid kick) and 2,1,4~4 (slow low kick). It's similar to the Geese example in this video but the timing is easier. Record Jin doing both and don't try to "see" which kick he does, use standing guard immediately after blocking the 2,1 and then switch to crouching guard. If he does the fast mid kick, you will block it; and if he does the slow low kick, you will block that too.

One example of an option select that isn't fuzzy guarding is dealing with Law's 3+4 on block with Paul. Law will either finish the 3+4,4 string or he won't (2 options) and Paul's d+1+2 beats both those options.

yep fuzzy guarding but i always mess it up

When it comes to the Geese string, you can also straight up react to the low instead. I find it less difficult than fuzzying it, although still not easy. There's also at least one weird example of a string that you can "fuzzy by reacting", which sounds confusing perhaps but I find it easy to do even in the heat of a match - Lee's ws23/ws24, where the high extension is a lot slower than the mid. Considering how for example Imyourfather gets away with using ws24 against top Korean players, it's actually hilarious how easy this is to do. I made a video on it.

Good ole FGC terminology
