Poll: Did you find Soul Crush and Critical Finish hard to execute?

Critical Finish had many flaws, the conditions were severe, it was hard to pull off etc. I wonder what went wrong with it in the first place

 

[SCPartisan]

All of my characters have an awful soul gauge game so CFs were never really an option. However, in the event that I DID get a Soul Crush pressing ABKG was E-Z-P-Z.

It was too varied and imo pretty unbalanced.
Take Siegfried's SC game, then compare it to NM, or Cervantes to Sophitia... Or ANYBODY to Voldo -_-
CF input was easy though =/

 

[Hot Rod Dave]

I agree with yall. Different characters had different soul gauge games (Maxi's is fairley decent) but to execute a CF was no problem. I have left trigger for my block and I leave right trigger standard, so all I gotta do is pull both triggers.

HRD

 

[EminentRising]

as for the actual pressing 4 buttons it was ez. its just that everyone's gauge game was not well balanced imo.

 

[Fatal_Exodus]

I pulled it off every now and then, but it just seemed hassled whenever the armor broke in the middle of a combo, especially when you were mid-air or in the middle of an attack throw or something.

If they didn't block...which is what many noobies do. I can't warble people, I aint that leet.

It's not hard, I think their main design was for special Versus, I find I get a lot of them there.

Play against a Voldo player in standard, you'll be flashing quickly man. =/

I can't soul crush with Tira, it's too difficult, I don't remember me doing CF online with Tira. But you guys are definetly aware of it, some chars can execute CF too easy.
Example :
My bro was playing online with Raphael and his opponent was Yun, my bro got owned by 3 critical finishes in a row!!! LOL

 

[tresto]

With Amy and Voldo as main characters (particularly Voldo), soul crushes tend to happen

 

[l3wis_1337]

I find SC'ing difficult, CF'ing is easy to execute but SC is such a pain in the arse, with 6b+k,b,b and her 214,a+b aside Taki doesn't deal that much damage with the majority of her moves. So it becomes a lengthy and painful process for me to perform... especially against your average pitballin' n00b.

 

[Afrofrog]

I never really paid attention to anticipating the SC, had more focus on the actual gameplay. I think online I only pulled it off 50%, and the other 50% when I didn't, their health bar was already pretty low and the win was nearly guaranteed.

But I do agree the discrepancy among different characters made it uneven in terms of competitive matches.

 

[Norik]

Hm... It's uncommon, but not hard to execute at all.

 

[KiraxSummers]

Of course, it depends on character. I could get a CF with Raph and Yun pretty easy. Pressing all face buttons in not a problem, getting to soul crush is. XD Speaking of which, it seems easier in SC5. Hmm...

 

[Aetheron]

I honestly almost never had the opportunity to execute it during battle. I never have difficulty actually executing it when I do get the opportunity, but that was so uncommon, especially when versing other people (coms were slightly easier).

 

[CassSophFan]

Critical Finish wasn't too hard for me to pull off. You just have to time it right. That's all.:D

 

[Marginal]

I hit HRD with one once. That's the only CF I remember actually doing.

 

[KiraxSummers]

If you're actually trying for it, it isn't that hard.

 

[Hot Rod Dave]

I hit HRD with one once. That's the only CF I remember actually doing.

Why is it that people always have a "this one time i was fighting HRD and did....." leave me alone you jacksagons!
