How to EWGF and Crouch Dash/Wavedash with Kazuya in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

[@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

[@Dontannoyme34894]

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

[@itsevanonyt]

HE FINALLY DID IT. HE FINALLY POSTED IT!!

NOW STOP ASKING!

Imma hit top 5 in a major now

[@XxSesshxX]

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

[@Kreynnol]

T'y riddles love u

[@roxasform]

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

[@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! 🙏👊🏼⚡️🏆

[@cosmicwaste_o]

Its EWGFmaa

[@zurich316]

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

[@joltz_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!

[@RBBTW]

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

[@Peachkeeper87639]

omg thank you so much I was struggling a bit and needed some visual guidance of some kind and came across your video thanks bro! :D

[@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 :,)

[@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!

[@Phazed305]

3:06 that voice crack tho…

[@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

[@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)

[@ZetsuZack]

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

[@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

[@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

[@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

[@mastergamingdude6191]

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

[@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

[@metheinvestor]

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

[@JYBOIII]

i found a better and consistent way to do electrics note that im a new player on the game but i have platform fighter notions because im from brawlhalla so the way i do electrics is kinda easy ( ➡️A⬇️↘️ ) depending of the side this is easier then pushing A when doing the down or down forward motion and will get you an electric everytime

[@zen5767]

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

[@1-tru-1]

Instantly my favorite riddles video

[@foresttaylor7850]

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

[@WeebGamer101]

I've Been waiting for this

[@converse53]

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

[@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.

[@spackmoose6002]

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

[@Petra-six-face]

I have a problem with input commands where when I learn one, I’ll either never manage to use it on purpose, or try and find an opportunity for it whenever I can and just get punished for clumsily attempting the input command and failing.

[@masoner789]

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

[@julienyapiskan9016]

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

[@seizureboy333]

FINALLY THANK YOU LORD RIDDLES 🙏

[@jesus127681]

am i not suppose to have smash attacks on right analog stick for dashes?

Does anyone else have the problem where they always dragon uppercut and not wgf/ewgf

[@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.

[@4BigGuysm]

No one tells you hold the down foward input

[@PKG315]

Bro posted this after over a year💀

[@matteoriedo5406]

Bro thank you so much i could not do ewgf for 1 jears now i can do it thank you so much(remember to only press a very short

[@Ex0tic07]

Yea but there is no electric

[@KAIsibs]

1:12 AIN’T NO WAY THATS THE NORMAL WAY! THATS SO FAST

[@kentojin50]

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

[@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

[@Sugar3Glider]

Now my hands hurt...

[@RoxasRamirez]

FUCK! I am that guy who always lets go of that last down input! Thanks for the help homie 🔥

[@progamerniko5534]

Same.

[@darkakiza8673]

im a shitty kazuya i see so many things saying its easy and yet i can only do the electric punch that sends them flying

[@mlg_joe7]

Wait up if u hold it won't you do the dragon uppercut?

[@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...

[@macmain9940]

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

[@rupantarnirvor8132]

Everytime I try to wavedash i always end up doing wind god fist on the second crouch dash. Can someone tell me why I really need help with this movement its apparently easy after practice but i still cant seem to do it. Though I do have the Ferps tech and ewgf down pretty well (except when im facing the left that shit kills me)

[@realchezboi]

This happens because you have to cancel your first wavedash with a Forward input. I believe you are hitting tilt-stick down maybe a hair too early, and are thus hitting it DURING the first wavedash state, in which the game recognises it as an A button. Wavedash state plus A equals WInd God Fist.

[@realchezboi]

Make sure you hit forward before tilt-stick down.

[@TheMaxxter]

Poggers, finally THE tutorial we all were waiting for

[@2scarlat]

Ok I actually got it now thank you riddles 😭

[@scidestep]

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

[@jasperli4907]

Anyone know the song that plays at the beginning of the vid?

[@Nokolo72]

My arms hurt.

[@RUDxEJAPAN]

Thanks I just started using him so I needed this 😊

[@Rhulkallos]

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

[@sirupyju7188]

this shit is hard af bruh

[@nix_the_fur]

Fitting for a 69k special

[@wheresmyshield176]

I use C stick method, which they had that in tekken

[@OniiChanPls]

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

[@mamodokod]

well doing the EWGF is hard man my brain and hands cant press a within 2 frames of when the stick is at down forward/3.

[@crisvaz27]

yayyyy!!!

[@CharlotteMimic]

Wait you can do DP inputs without returning to neutral after forward?

[@Simplemente_porque_si]

The fact that his hands seem pretty shaky from those continuous combos he does with kazuya 😭

[@petergoodspieces130]

I think the gamecube helps a lot with not missinputing down forward

[@Xbambushaudix]

I dont get it i always do it right buit it doesn't work. There also are some blue particles that dont show up in the video

[@stayflexin5526]

Dude I’m doing it exactly how you are and still getting Inconsistent inputs do I need a new Controller

[@TAGsleepybob]

When i do ewgf it always sends people flying so I can't combo with it why doesn't it work?

[@obamadoingthings1281]

Riddles I have a question, so when I hold the Down forward input it turns into a wind god fist instead of ewgf

[@tmtv2234]

Make sure you hold down forward when doing it.

[@jasontran4525]

Thank you on behalf of all Asian NA SSBU players. We respect you brother!

[@Ironsol-fu1pv]

How can you did nair+fast fall+ EWGF?

[@this.just.in.]

crunch i am so proud of you for doing electrics

[@lightz816]

What exactly is "a"? Because when im doing it im grabbing the enemy. I Changed my settings so what move should be on "a"

[@thechosenone8332]

Now we can all not sugarcoat it.

[@cloud4876]

c stick doesnt work at all on my end. dunno if i need a game cube controller but the pro controller never even crouch dashed with that

[@Jackson-IsHim.15]

Make sure your c stick is set as tilt attack instead of smash attack

IT IS MY TIME TO SHINE!!!

"Now stop asking" I felt that on a spiritual level lmao

WOW FINALLY.

[@simonscheucher5984]

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

[@tinpot8197]

LETS GO HE DID IT AFTER MANY YESRS

[@TrevorAugustine]

Try (down forward>down>down forward + A) INSTEAD of doing (forward>down>down forward +A). It's a little faster for me. Found it labbing.

[@mastergamingdude6191]

Hey riddles is there anyway you could show the input slower you do it kinda fast

[@ivorydavis3870]

That’s the Thing You Practice it you Tap Forward and Then Flick The C Stick Down And Repeat it Again Once your Good at it Then you Can do it What he Just Did

[@The_unknown-gr6mc]

I guess he’s mad everyone is missing their inputs.

Im grateful, my controller on the other hand...

will crouch dashing with the c stick work with tilts bound to the c stick instead of smash attacks?
