[@XxSesshxX]

BRO I LITERALLY SAID THE SAME EXACT WORDS IM SO PROUD OF THIS LIL NIGGA 💕🤧🥹

[@mysterious77135]

T'y riddles love u

[@roxasform]

I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL BRO!!!!!

[@Leap623]

The advice with holding the diagonal input for EWGF is great, I noticed that a bit ago during an input viewer stream and my EWGF's went from like a 10% success rate to about 80%. Also for crouch dash cancelling, he kinda touched on this but from what I understand the biggest thing is to make sure that you both flick and release the C stick while the left stick is being held, i.e. (Hold Left Stick) > (Hold C Stick) > (Release C Stick) > (Release Left Stick) all in quick succession. Helps to practice the motion at a slower pace and gradually build up how fast you do it.

[@HawkTeevs]

I think it really helps to think of it like this: just flick the C stick as you’re dashing Start dashing, then flick the C stick as you’re dashing

[@Leap623]

@@ashervanmaanen3353 You're pushing left or right on the left stick (towards your opponent), and down on the c-stick. Expect to get some down tilts by mistake as you work out the timing. If you're asking about smash vs. tilt stick, I believe you need it set to tilt stick, I wasn't able to get it to work with smash stick.

[@Oz1455]

I played him since he came out and I had no idea you needed to hold the stick input.

[@nathanshepard3751]

People on this comment thread deserve the sloppiest of top for these tips

[@Jinxypoo100]

It actually helps doing it with my eyes closed so I can focus only on the motion instead of my animation!!!

[@omgvanta514]

I migrated from tekken kazuya and adapted to the smash kazuya. After getting used to the GC controller was able to execute moderately in smash after like 1 week of playing. They did a very good job at bringing their iteration of kaz in the game.

[@djcleaner69]

Wow every tutorial made that input seem hard but that 32 seconds was more helpful than anything else 💀 thank you so much

[@macd-man3787]

I appreciate that he turns all the way around just to show us how to input

[@EWGFmas]

You did a phenomenal job, I couldn’t have said it better myself. Great hand visuals, great communication, thoroughly explained each input to a T. By far the most helpful EWGF and Crouch Dash guide. Really love how you emphasized holding the input on electric as you press A, that’s a game changer. Great job Riddles! 🙏👊🏼⚡️🏆

[@xenokiia]

Its EWGFmaa

[@blayze_fgc]

1:54 I just figured out why kazuya does that. So basically everyone else that does the crouch dash input without having crouch dash does a dash walk. It’s more of a precise input so flicking the c stick is the preferred way. Since kazuya has the crouch dash input, him doing the dash walk with the c stick will result in a crouch dash because the game recognizes the c stick flick as doing the input with the analog stick. Just thought I should share that because I just found it out while in training mode. (Also I’m not the best at explaining things, so sorry if it’s hard to understand at first lol)

[@eyekahnzuya]

As a Kaz main myself, he gave the greatest simple explanation I have probably ever seen aside from Parz! Def take notes if you take interest in Kazuya y’all!

[@LoyaltyRB_Art]

I love the videos man, godbless you. Thank you for the amazing tutorial man. Continue to grind 🐐

[@landronsc]

I knew about the dashwalking technique for wavedash, but i never could get it consistent but now that i know you have to hold and release the c stick during the left stick input, ill probably use that instead, because my movement was always garbage so thanks for uploading this. Very helpful

[@DemonTime27546]

thank you VERY much. I have recently gotten into kazuya and have been told to learn ewgf, which I have been thriving to do :,)

[@mastergamingdude6191]

Thank you so much for this riddles ive been trying to figure this out for months!!

[@ZetsuZack]

Showing off this hardwork that riddles has committed this tech to muscle memory. Godlike.

[@zurich316]

I really like the editor's work. Good job with your examples

[@realchezboi]

The exact input for tilt stick crouch dash is: Forward, Forward+Down on Tilt-Stick, then Forward, then go to neutral if you want to immediately repeat that. Essentially, hold forward, but tap down (By hold, that just means any length of time 3 frames or longer)

[@realchezboi]

This works because the game recognises, Forward, Down, Forward as crouch dash too, rather than strictly being Forward, Down, Down-Forward. Since down on the Tilt-Stick is a macro, the game reads a down input from it.

[@Sickmmaner]

Just got the crouch dash because of this comment! Thank you!

[@1-tru-1]

Instantly my favorite riddles video

[@daconsti7531]

Finally someone said it! You have to hold down-forward! I swear no other tutoriel tells you this!

[@chance6991]

Ikr

[@mierta7751]

Totally agree, other tutorials are junk compared to this

[@TheWanderingFreedom]

That was great tutorial video, I've been practicing the CDC for Kazuya and have that down for the most part. I still need to work on my electric. I have had success with the C-Stick input for Electric: Side input the hold Diagonal forward flick the stick at the same time thrn return it to neutral at the same time you press A brings the electric out. But it is a bit awkward to bring out while moving I just need to work on my og input XD

[@converse53]

I was just about to practice kazuya anyway and this shows up in my recommended. Great tutorial btw

[@masoner789]

For anyone that’s struggling, press the attack button and just hold down ↘️ so basically ➡️⬇️↘️ A (hold ↘️)

[@TheMaxxter]

Poggers, finally THE tutorial we all were waiting for

[@julienyapiskan9016]

Finally I can do the ewgf thank you riddles ❤️❤️❤️

[@djcleaner69]

Wow every tutorial made that input seem hard but that 32 seconds was more helpful than anything else 💀 thank you so much ( I main ryu, ken and bayo and thought something was wrong with me lmao)

[@foresttaylor7850]

Thanks! I had EWGF down for a while but couldn't do the fast dash

[@2hot4u97]

To those of us playing on drifty joycons: RIP

[@seizureboy333]

FINALLY THANK YOU LORD RIDDLES 🙏

[@RUDxEJAPAN]

Thanks I just started using him so I needed this 😊

[@terrantony2635]

I'm pretty sure the c-stick dash doesn't give you full s like the normal input dash cause its canceling into itself too quickly.

[@realchezboi]

Basically, since the regular crouch dash method is slower to perform, he's more likely to play the full dash out, which basically is crouched the entire time AND has upper body intangibility almost the entire time.

[@Supertacodonut]

Very apparent when he posted playing Tekken with TMM

[@scide6372]

To think that I would learn EWGF in Tekken 7 in a SSBU video lmao, thank you, the key is hold the damn down forward

[@metheinvestor]

We needed to hear the best kazuya player in the states finally state how. Great explanation bro. Keep grinding

[@simonscheucher5984]

Okay the first minute surprised me really with the hold the down forward input.

[@macmain9940]

Thank you for the video, I didn’t realize you had to hold the stick to get ewgf

[@WeebGamer101]

I've Been waiting for this

[@Rhulkallos]

Best video!! I legit had no idea how he was doing that haha.

[@zen5767]

You finally reach 1k subs in Twitch bro!? Thanks for this ❤!

[@2scarlat]

Ok I actually got it now thank you riddles 😭

[@mickirules110]

What a considerate Kazuya God he is to give us this!!! I won't be half the player Riddles is but he makes playing Kazuya so much fun

[@spackmoose6002]

Welp, I guess its finally time to practice my Kazuya. Thanks Riddler

[@this.just.in.]

crunch i am so proud of you for doing electrics

[@oliverhoffman3818]

I am A Kazuya main and this is very helpful because I know how to do every single command input with Kazuya except electric and I love Kazuya.

[@michael13849]

thanks riddles, very cool.

[@Borochov808]

Im gonna like this because i just got smash a few days ago and i already know your kazuya greatness, and i also know people have apparently been asking for this for a long time, and my hands are dead from trying this, and that tip to hold the diagonal input at the end apparently went over everyone elses' head who made one of these vids

[@CaptAUGseome]

I picked up Terry because of how godly you play with him. I tried Kazuya and I was wash, so this is pretty nice to know. Thanks from a fellow Torontonian.

[@aidensemkuley3596]

Thank you riddles

[@aregalslap]

I had become somewhat proficient with Kazuya but this made it so much better, it's also get legit interesting to listen to him talk about this

[@smokz4856]

absolute big brain the first 2 seconds

[@Savagejustice432]

3:29 how to get joystick drift speedrun

[@zinkpopovitch9519]

Literally increased my ewgf success rate tenfold We don't deserve riddles

[@duke4088]

See, this is what Sakurai intended to balance Kazuya. You basically have to spend months giving yourself bruises on your fingers and getting carpal tunnel to be able to do the things Riddles and Tea do seemingly effortlessly in a fucking tournament setting. It's why Kazuya isn't a pick up and play character like a Luigi, a wolf, a Steve or a ROB.

[@Shiggles_65]

Learned how to EWGF after this video, this shii helped so much

[@welfare_ninja]

yoo ty great video

HES FINALLY NOT SUGARCOATING IT

LETS GO EDITOR GOOD SHIT

[@tmtv2234]

Thanks to this video I learn how to do EWGF. I feel like I’m rotating the left stick a full circle to make it happen lol. Also it’s Easier for me when I’m crouching then input the EWGF.

[@milo4885]

Thank you

[@marlinmurrell620]

Neat. I guess I kinda learned how to do EWGF the Tekken way after playing Tekken for about a couple of weeks. ➡️🔹️⬇️↘️+A (the 🔹️being the stick returning to neutral.)

[@alvaroqr2832]

Yooo the editor is crazy

[@StrawHatAura]

PLEASE READ: If you're having a hard time with electric, use your fingernail instead of your entire thumb on the A button. By that, I mean press down on A with your fingernail and then immediately slide it down off the button. I promise it works. Good luck lol

[@angelor2513]

I feel ya editor. Always harder for me to do inputs facing left like rar or ewgf

[@baneyama103]

You can also input down- down forward- back down- down forward + attack and you will do ewgf, its the same for all dragon punch inputs... also the street fighter 4 negative edge mechanic is still in the game from Smash 4 so you could hold the attack button do any manual input let go of the attack button and he will do said manual input... which means you can do electric win godfist three different ways

[@gregdesandro9484]

Negative edge only works for his reflect split kick apparently

[@baneyama103]

@@gregdesandro9484 I used it to input electric sometimes... I literally just finished playing...

how to beat smash brothers: step 1: buy Kazuya step 2: master the skills step 3: only play kazuya

[@EnemyMex]

I recently just learned how to CDC with c stick. Now I’m just learning how to DGF out of it and ferp tech.

[@attackontyrus7318]

I can’t explain how grateful I am for this and I’m just a casual player lol

I never asked for this but ppl would've stopped asking if you did it a long time ago bruh. Appreciate it tho as I like kazuya :)

Meanwhile pros and tekken players knows how to use kazuya and mishima fast wavedash: that's normal for us

Hi Riddles, HOW and WHY do you input the turn back Ferb's tech with no dash 💨 animation ? I think I saw you hitting diagonal but I'm not sure 😊 Thanks 🙏

[@purple_roy2190]

IT IS MY TIME TO SHINE!!!

[@Torkelmoment]

Now there's gonna be even more Kazuya's better than me. Great tutorial tho

[@OniiChanPls]

Dang bro. Didn't know you had to hold the down forward

[@Hired_Merc]

This shit was so helpfull😎 CDC is still hard to get consistent in the beginning but i'll try my best to improve

[@prestonsasaki]

He finally got tired of people asking him how to cdc and electric lmao

[@killian.4628]

YEAH

[@benbardi2824]

Is there any use for the crouching back down tilt? I've never seen it used before

[@realchezboi]

It's one of Kazuya's very niche moves since he already has overlapping and incredibly good ones (EWGF), crouching bd tilt can really only set up for a pretty good tech chase situation, they usually land about one or two forward dashes away, but it all depends on percent.

[@thomaswilson4441]

Playing on handheld switch has been a real joy -_-

[@spacedoutfoo]

Let's go

[@Dragoon_Kenji27]

Also it might help with stick sensitivity, go to controller and mess with it to help their is low,normal, and high sensitivity

[@calebrobbins6406]

Oh my god, he actually made a video about it XDD

[@AJZTheMagnificent]

I can hit ewgf no problem in practice, but hitting it under pressure is hard. Also, crouch dash I'll have to practice for sure

[@mierta7751]

Me too! Guess we need more practice

[@AJZTheMagnificent]

@@mierta7751 I've actually been able to start hitting them In matches here and there. Keep practicing it and working hard and it will happen. Trust me

[@SmashJEFF]

I belive the crouch dashing with the c-stick cuts off some of the invincibility Kazuya gets from the crouch dash because the c-stick is mapped for a direction and A, so there could possibly be an attack that's canceling the invincibility early. I don't know if that's true, just a theory

[@realchezboi]

I'm pretty sure it's just because the c-stick method is way faster. Invincibility starts on frame 3 (given it's done perfectly in 3 frames), and upper body invincibility and low profileness lasts throughout the majority of the crouch dash. Because he does it so fast with the c-stick input, he's getting less invincibility and more of the first 2 frames that are uninvincible and standing up, by literally performing it slower, he gets more invincibility on average.

[@SmashJEFF]

@@realchezboi that does make sense
