Yoshimitsu - Suicide Preparation

- Regular Move or Counter Hit Move or Auto-parry/Auto GI

[TrippalHealicks]

- Regular Move or Counter Hit Move or Auto-parry/Auto GI

Xianghua's split / stab move.

 

[ChaCha]

Tira's GS B+K counter, is easily the badassest auto-GI in the game.

 

[harlekein]

I pretty much agree, and even though I'm an Asta player I think Cervy's command throw is quite sick as well.

I miss Asta's back throw from SC2. :( I loved that one. They should have turned it into a side throw instead of the one where he just beats someone down.

 

[Angrel-San]

This is just for fun. Don't take it too seriously.


The categories are:

Critical Finish

Tie with Maxi and Setsuka.

- Throw or Command Throw

Rock's command throw. Everytime that hammer splats the other guy skull, I get all tingly. *flashbacks to Braveheart's brute*

- Unblockable Move

Any of Yoshimitsu's suicides.

- Regular Move or Counter Hit Move or Auto-parry/Auto GI

Tira's counter. Too bad is just a counter.

- Overall Most Baddass Move of SCIV

Algol kicking you from the throne.

 

[Sporko]

- Critical Finish

I haven't seen all of them, but of the ones I've seen I've gotta say Sophitia's. That's just wicked.

- Throw or Command Throw

Voldo's "Fool's Inquest". The one where he snakes between/around your legs.

- Unblockable Move

Gonna agree with some of the others, any of Yoshi's suicides.

- Overall Most Baddass Move of SCIV

Hmm. I think I have to go with Sophitia's Critical finish again.

 

[Plume]

Cervantes

- Throw or Command Throw
Voldo's BT 66A+G against female characters.

- Overall Most Baddass Move of SCIV
Rock's 22A.
Because real men do ballet.

 

[OuTk@sT]

Maxi's +:::: to BT + ftw.. gotta be the Jf version tho.

 

[StripesOrBars]

Not sure what button(s) you press, but Xian's attack when she's floored is funny.

Maybe not badass.

But, funny.

 

[ojste]

- Throw or Command Throw
Astaroth's Back Throw. i always smile when i see it xD

- Unblockable Move
Yoshi's Suicide Drop

- Regular Move or Counter Hit Move or Auto-parry/Auto GI
Tira's saw (GS B+K Auto-GI)

- Overall Most Baddass Move of SCIV
Ivy - Summon Suffering

 

[IKillYouTo]

Astaroth 214B+K, 28B+G is always a winner.

I've also always liked Mitsu's side throw where he trips them, stabs them in the back and twists his sword.

Has nobody mentioned Summon Suffering or Calamity Symphony yet?

 

[whatwhatwhat]

The best throw by far is Vader's where he pushes them away, and chokes them while he says "Suffer" has got to be the best. I don't play Vader much, I think the input is B+G, A+B but I could be wrong on that, since A+B is his normal unblockable.

 

[KingAce]

Why isn't Algol on your lists...he scream badass.
Asta's back throw...
Maxi's CF.
NM's 2A+B
Cervy teleports.

 

[KoshTheKoala]

CF:
Darth Vader.

 

[ShinobiBrown]

Critical Finish - Algol

Regular/Command Throw - Asta's back throw

Unblockable Move -As many have already said, any of Yoshi's suicidal ones.

Regular Move or Counter Hit Move or Auto-parry/Auto GI - This one easily goes to Tira. I always enjoy watching her GS B+K counter and GS CH 66K animations.

Overall Most Bad-ass Move - Tough one. I'll have to say Agol's CF primarily due to how it ends.

 

[ZenXacred]

Has nobody mentioned Summon Suffering or Calamity Symphony yet?

hmm...post above yours. tsk.

 

[IKillYouTo]

hmm...post above yours. tsk.

Yeah, you posted while I was writing my post, didn't feel it necessary to edit mine.

 

[Niichts]

- Critical Finish
Tira

- Throw or Command Throw
Where Voldo leaps at their head and goes *nom nom nom*

- Unblockable Move
Hilde - C4 B
I mean seriously.

 

[microgamer]

- Critical Finish
Taki's...gotta love the ninja illusions...also "Stay down!", though she says it a lot, is so fitting at the end; Algol's is runner-up...I like how he reappears and spikes them down after the initial launcher

- Throw/Command Throw
This one's tough, but I'll go with that one Mitsurugi side-throw that's a trip, to stab in the back (while the opponent is still in the air mind you) into the ground, then the twist afterwards. Runner-up is Zalamel- either back-throw (self-explanatory) or his side throw where he knees the opponent to make him double over, and then jumps on top of them into the scythe.

- Unblockable
Since everyone already mentioned Yoshimitsu's suicide variations, I'll say Algol's unblockable is the most badass. He fires a giant purple bubble from his chest. Yun's super-flip UB is runner-up.

- Normal move
I'll be different and say Sieg's 44B cancel. It's got like the hugest windup like, "omg I'm gonna lay the ultimate smack down on you-- just kidding". Runner-up is Algol's ejector seat throne attack.

lol at Voldo nom nom

this thread reminds me part of why I love SoulCalibur so much
