Side question, I was a very casual T7 Steve main, and I might be misremebering, but I swear, was Steve stronger in T7? I'd play a game on T8 and do my usual Steve stuff, getting counterhits and combos in, and the enemy still has plenty of health to spare. Regardless, Steve is my favorite character, so I'll stick with him!
@soulxcv6 ай бұрын

@soulxcv6 ай бұрын
Steve is DEFINITELY much stronger in T7 due to how the meta is played. It's a CH game in T7 and Steve has df2 and B1. In T8 they nerfed a lot of his tools and gave him LH in a game where overwhelming force is the meta. So he's a little bit weaker here

If you want to do anything besides hard callout a power crush with throw, you'll probably have to condition them to block by using the Lionheart mix a few times.

It's a muscle memory you can develop, and with all muscle memory, you have to start slow and build up from there! Luckily Steve doesn't require you to be fast, because the point is to evade highs the entire time. So just do it at your own pace, my friend. One day you will be duck cancelling so fast

I have all your video saved in the favorites. Can I ask you something? First of all how the hell do I enter pekaboo stance seamlessly. You manage to do that while comboing, and I don't get it. The second thing is... about ducking: i dont understand when to use it since it leaves me open to many mid attacks that are usually opener for many characters. Do you think it is usable by less experienced players who are not aware of the opponents movement? Because I tried it yesterday in ranked and I realized that I was gambling everytime, and many times i got it for that
@soulxcv6 ай бұрын
Thanks man! For PKB, some moves like 121f, FCdf1 and 21f put you in PKB with good plus frames to work with provided you hit the first moves before the transition. Also another tip is that Steve's PKB and flk are active the first frame you input it. So if you input it raw, you can actually plink your next move and you won't see Steve actually enter the stance. He's just gonna do the PKB move. I do it a lot when I want instant PKB2. And as for ducking, it's the same with Mishima wavu pressure: if your opponent doesn't respect the stance and just mash you everytime, then there is no point in adding this layer. Just directly use your CH buttons when you duck in or just use the stance to close the gap safely. Just make sure you practice duck cancelling so you're safe the entire time. Hope this helps, cheers!

Can you make a guide on PKB? I'm only just about Red ranks but I for the love of god cannot get this stance to do anything other than the grab. I get jabbed out of it every time, or get hit low immediately and can't do anything ever with it. I know it's supposed to be good for offense but I find it to only be a grab enabler.
@soulxcv6 ай бұрын
I covered it on one of my vids: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqqYanWAe5edickm25s Basically the gist of it is you keep harassing with PKB d1 and PKB df11 string until they get frustrated and press at a disadvantage. PKB 12 gives you frames and PKB2 is your CH launcher from stance if you feel like they've had enough of your poking. PKB df1121 is delayable so you can keep playing the timing like how you would Bryan's df111112. Once they press, end the string and db2 is guaranteed.
@Dunkaholic186 ай бұрын
@@soulxcv I guess my question is when do you start with the D1 pokes? I'm getting hit out of my PKB like all the time before I can even press something, or even before a regular PKB 1 comes out. Only thing I can ever actually get with it is the grab.
@soulxcv6 ай бұрын
Ahh gotcha. If you transition from a blocked string, say 121f or 21f, you're minus so you can't press if they mash. When you hit your buttons and transition to pkb, that's when you can start your offense because you're heavily plus. If they hit you out of PKB using jabs or punches, PKB2 will be your most used button as it sabakis or counter hits them.
