My favourite bad move is from Tekken 7. It's Leroy bringing his dog out to have a 50% chance of attacking or 50% chance to just sit there looking like a cute, dumb bag of fur. It has long start-up and may not even work. I've won rounds with it and it feels amazing.

My favorite garbage move might be Dio's 623X with Stand on in Jojo HFTF. It's called "DIE!". Dio will send out the World to attack you from behind with full screen tracking. Except it's uh, really goddamn slow. I mean extremely slow. I think it might actually take real world seconds to reach you. You can just walk up to Dio from fullscreen and hit him for using this. The move whiffs if the opponent moves at all. Dio cannot move until the move is finished. I'm pretty sure it's not even a cross up. It's also negative incase the opponent does block it, somehow. It feels like it's just there to punish people for accidentally doing 6236X. Also if the opponent hits you while the move is out, you take double damage and you lose your stand.

you can actually make it attack sooner if the world reaches the Opponent. However the funniest part about it is how you just can't combo off of it, not does it knockdown. It's literally just there so that Dio could have a bad move (though his grab and guard cancel already fit that spot)

One that stood out to me is Aang's neutral special in Nick All Stars Brawl. By default it's a decent edge-trapping move, him spinning his staff in front of him. Has good range, is fast, and can gimp some recoveries. But once he goes over 100% damage it changes to him activating the Avatar State, and he's surrounded by all four elements referencing when he fought Ozai at the end of the series. It's him at his strongest...except the move doesn't do great damage, has NO kill power, and leaves him super vulnerable if you miss with it. I have no idea what the move's good for. Maybe they improved it in later patches but it stuck out to me as like a punishment for taking damage, making one of his better moves way worse.

@@damienlee4992 You actually can combo off of it with RC, and it's actually an incredible combo starter if you have meter to burn - Sol can do 343 midscreen and 379 in the corner. The problem, of course, is that none of those things fix the major problem with the move, that it has incredibly massive startup, can't be comboed INTO, and on reaction. The problem has never been the damage, it's been landing it. And this is only exacerbated by requiring the opponent to have 340+ health while you have full tension, AKA you pretty much need to land a gold burst to try it. There are some valid uses for it (notably you can punish a move that is super minus, like most raw supers), but in general it's super situational.

An extra bad thing about Margret's "reversal" in P4A is that even when you hit with it, it kind of leaves you in a bad spot. The opponent recovers above and in front of you at angle she's not well-equipped to contest them from (her anti-air is kind of slow if the target isn't right on top of her, and only the first hit is air unblockable, the head invul is hard to time effectively, and it's pretty rough on whiff), and top characters like Mitsuru and Adachi have really strong jumping moves from that position. So you could suceed with your insanely risky "get off me" option, only to wind up right back where you started pretty easily. Ran into this when I picked her up after the game got rollback, and oh boy, was it unpleasant. It does say something about her that she's one of the game's strongeat characters deapite such a glaring weakness, though.
@callumbreton8930

In 98UM it was significantly buffed. Orochi Leona could move immediately after throwing it out, while the regular Leona could move shortly after. Startup and recovery frames were also significantly reduced so that while it's still slow, it's no longer a free punish from anywhere. Orochi Leona's version is practically safe when spaced properly and is actually quite good. The problem with the regular Leona's version is you simply had no reason to be doing it altogether even with its buffs because you're suddenly killing off whatever offensive momentum you built to throw out a projectile where the payoff is if your opponent rolled past it into your punish.

That Krillin move reminds me of the Kensou super in KOF 97 & 98, where he spends 1 bar and recovers around 1 punch worth of health meter, but the recovery time of the move is 1+ seconds. And Kensou also got a max version of the move which costs 2 bars and the recovery time is 3+ seconds, plus it restores LESS health meter. It's like Dan's taunt super that basically serves no purpose but to taunt your opponent. But Kensou's is double qcb punch so you are likely to pull the move on accident at some point if Kensou is your main character. There are also a few other ridiculously shitty moves in the KOF series that have no practical use but to annoy the player.

One I always remember feeling like a terrible move was Shadow's "Shadow Punch" from One Must Fall: 2097. Shadow is already considered pretty bad, their projectiles are perishable on block from full screen and this move was one of their projectiles. It's been a while but it felt slower than Shadow Kick, another projectile move that at least hit low (as One Must Fall did not have overheads as far as I could tell). So it was a slow move that did a little bit of damage and was incredibly risky to use, despite how cool the concept of the character was. They were basically Noob Saibot's "shadow clone" gimmick before Noob had that, which is neat.

I appreciate this video and I think I can help. There are two types of moves in all fighting games: viable moves (these are practical moves that you would use in a serious tournament setting or for a better win/loss ratio in ranked) non-viable moves (these are impractical, but usually fun to look at moves that you can use for casuals or just to mess around) It's interesting that you spoke of Tekken at the end with Kazumi. I've been playing 3d fighters for some 20 years and I can tell you first hand that Tekken is notorious for having very few viable, tournament level moves across all characters. Another move you may want to mention from Tekken 7 is Miguel's 1 hit KO. It's a 1 hit, unblockable mid KO punch but the startup is something like 100 frames. Miguel laugh's and walks forward slowly then pulls back and BOOM. It's a funny move, but not of any real use in serious tournament play.

I think Wolverine's Swiss Cheese in UMVC3 should be on the list. Not only is it a bad move on its own, its existence is actively detrimental to Wolverine. Because it's a mash move (you need to mash an attack button to use it), Swiss Cheese will come out when you press buttons too quickly. That means that you have to be extremely precise when you plink/wave dash, and you have to consciously slow down your button presses when pressuring. Or else Swiss Cheese will come out and you get punished. I swear Capcom only added this move in Ultimate to indirectly nerf Wolverine.

Soul Calibur 5 Ezio's 6K2 is a hilariously bad useful move. It's a barely reactable standing low with ambiguous startup that's launch punishable (-18) on hit. It's only saving grace is that as a standalone move it did 15%, so you could toss it out as a game win.

Easily one of the most situational moves in SF history, and - Heidern's Kill Bringer reversal (but sure wins for style points however, especially since it heals him as well). - Leona's I-Slasher in KOF 97-98. Good grief this move was basically the equivalent of giving your opponent a handicap. Even if it hits your payoff wasn't worth anything. Her Earring Bomb ranged projectile is another stinker, but at least it's not completely useless. - Sogetsu Kazama's immobilizing qcf+S bubble projectile when using the Slash/Shura version. It's so slow to start that your opponent literally has time to run up to you from the other end of the screen and punish you. Sure, if it does hit you get a hard punish, but they'd literally have to be asleep to not see this coming. - Ramon's Tiger Lord > Cross Chop move in KOF 2002/NeoWave. Unlike the other moves listed here, it's not actually a bad move. It's however, completely redundant when in 2002 Ramon gained a new move called Force of Will which has the same startup animation, covers the same range with the same attack animation that turns into a grab for more damage and is unblockable to boot, while still being able to hit an airborne opponent. So in other words, Force of Will was the exact same move but better and unblockable, so the Cross Chop just felt needless. Thankfully in KOF XI it was revamped so that the Cross Chop is faster and goes full screen with a better air to air hitbox, so its overlaps with the Force of Will were mostly gone in XI.

In Melty Blood Actress Again, Len has a "projectile" where she releases a kitten that slowly walks towards the opponent. The kitten has about 3 different colors and only the golden one does a sliver of damage. The others do nothing, so it's a gamble...

Not a DB player so feel free to disregard my take on it, but that bean does seem quite handy if Krillin is your only remaining character, it might be a weak move but I wouldn't call it terrible as it does have some circumstantial use. Also my favorite terrible move is Kuma/Panda Fatal Wind which unfortunately was removed in Tekken 7. It's unblockable and a instant kill but has around 100 frames of startup and the range is so bad the opponent basically have to walk into it

One that comes to mind is Alex's Spiral DDT from 3rd Strike. It's a move so rarely used that people who don't play him probably forget it even exists. Super telegraphed and punishable since he's airborne, and whiffs on crouching opponents. Even though it's bad, it is really fun to just throw it out every once in a while and catch people off guard

@23:52 I've seen Ulsan hit fools with df2 MANY times. It's a REALLY good whiff punisher and you get hella combos off it. Also 18 frames is NOT slow in Tekken terms, considering our fastest moves are 10 frame and 15 is launchable for most of the cast.

In regards to Jiren's 5H, it's meant to be used in stagger pressure. That's an issue I find with the FGC, they love to trash on moves that were clearly designed to be option select, and they either don't use them properly, or get destroyed by it.

Smash has a few stinker moves in the series. In 64 and Melee, for example, they quite literally forgot to put the finishing hit box of Luigi’s dash attack in the game. Also in Melee, either Mario’s or Luigi’s (I forget which one) downward-angled forward tilt is entirely useless, not even launching at 999% In Brawl, Meta Knight (the best character in that game by far) had a horrible rapid jab. There was no reason to use it instead of his forward tilt and it also had a random hit behind Meta Knight that serves no purpose.

To this day, what I feel like they should have done with jirens 5h was give it a charge function like some other normals. Just pressing the button makes it a normal heavy hit like everyone else, but holding it turns it into the command grab. It would justify the slow startup while creating a unique frame trap situation. Then again I can't say if this is a bad idea or not, but other characters have more toxic options.

Double Dragon 95's moves ticked me off the most! Not because of the gameplay. Because -Billy- Bimmy and Jimmy were given knock-offs of Ryu/Goku's moves. Even though the Double Dragons already have their own set of iconic moves since DDII which is the Ten Satsu Ryuuji Ken (Hyper Uppercut), the Ryuubi Ranbuu Kyaku (Cyclone Kick), and the Bakuma Ryuujin Kyaku (High Jump Knee). And don't get me started on Double Dragon V!

It is surprising how often you can get Jirens grab in DBFZ. The amount I’ve hit it is a shit ton more then how much I’ve hit it. Idk if it’s cause they just forget it exists or some other reason but it’s clutched for me so much that I can’t not love it

Worst move I use is Baiken's 65314K~H in Guilty Gear Xrd, it's a 32 frame command grab that can't be comboed into unless your opponent is asleep. But, it's a fantastic way to make your opponent just feel bad.

Videos like this always make me wonder how long they take to make and how they were made. Did you guys have pre-recorded scenes of the moves in question, or did you load up each game separately and perform the move live in front of each other? If the latter, did you already have the games running, or was it like "hang on, let me boot up this game, training mode, character select, etc."
