Evil Ryu unblockable on Guile

[mozofuck]

Did you try this after a simple closeMP to HK Axe kick or standHP to EX AXe kick ?? I mean, is the dragon cancel a necessity ?

@mozofuck

No, it's not necessary. you can do it after just a regular HK axe kick or EX axe kick.

With HK axe kick, I found that I could only do the unblockable if I hit confirmed with cr. LP first. I guess it's a spacing necessity.

After EX axe kick I found that I could only do the unblockable after whiffing a st. HP, whiffing a sweep didn't work no matter how much I tried.

is this really unblockable, or is this one of those things that you can block at the last second. As in, holding a direction is what gets you hit by it.

@Theocrooks

Well as far as I know, all unblockables can be blocked, it's just extremely hard to do it. If you did this against the CPU and set it to block everything then the CPU will block this and every other unblockable I think.

[Theocrooks]

@RiceEater483 I've been told from some pretty good players that there are true unblockables.

[Theocrooks]

@RiceEater483 You can't test them by using the computer though, just like you couldn't dot that in mvc2 with sentinels unblockable. I'm not sure why.

[TheGosu]

After the axe kick, does the sweep come immediately after? (I know it's to time the safe jump)

Or do you wait a slight millisecond, I can't seem to get the timing perfect.

@TheGosu

I don't know the exact timing, but myself personally I am trying to do the sweep as soon as possible after recovering from the axe kick. Hope that helps. 

[TheGosu]

@RiceEater483 That sounds great, thanks I'll go try it out.

@enigmatic247 He is holding right and then left as Guile, showing that no matter which way you hold back you cannot block it.

[enigmatic247]

why is this unblockable though? it looks like a crossup? am i missing something?
