[@skychaos87]

Because one wrong guess and you take damage close to three throws. They should remove throw loops in this game, its scrubby af. MenaRD said so himself.

[@HakumeiTenshi]

​@@skychaos87 People need to get it in their heads that "taking the throw" is not the safe option they tricked themselves into believing it its. The logic goes out the window when 80% of the damage you took the whole set was from getting thrown and you didn't do a darn thing about it the entire time.

[@koreyg8552]

Because this game is trash, you risk teching and losing half your life. This whole corner throw loop is garbage

[@skychaos87]

@@HakumeiTenshi Nope, taking the throw is still safer than getting hit meaty into a full combo. You are saying this because he guessed wrong over and over. If he gets hit and take 30-50% damage you'd be saying he should have taken the throw. The problem is not about the reads, its about the damn throw loop that keeps you locked into the guessing game if you guess wrong.

[@HakumeiTenshi]

@@skychaos87 What does it matter if the meaty doesn't come? You like everyone else make the same mistake of thinking that taking less damage means you're safer, when we just watched a whole demonstration on how untrue that is. "Taking the throw" is a meme that came from SFV, where defensive options were scarce. You have an abundance of drive gauge in this game, and JP in particular has a counter that activates on throws, and he only used it twice the whole set. People are so terrified of taking damage that they'd rather stay in the worst position possible in the game than attempt to get out it. Makes no sense.
