I honestly don't get why in any circumstances you'd use this move. It stuns sure but so do other moves. Plus it's extremely weak. Can someone please explain how they use it?

it might have another use. since one of its better qualities is its range, it could in theory stop someone from charging at you after a knockdown, say. compared to most of Taki's moves, this is actually a viable keep-out option because it doesn't require you to be right in their face to attack. and it has decent frames on hit.
Problem with this is....it's punishable on block, really doesn't have any range, and all-around shitty move if they're on their feet. =P
Taki has plenty of much better options that do the keep-out thing like you described. FC 1A+B is definitely not one of them.
so what else would you use for keep-out then?
options other than "HELLO HERE'S A BOMB IN MY HAND, GIMME A MINUTE TO CHARGE THIS THING UP."? lol :P

Oh yea FLG I was reading your siggy and did you know that on 44K Tech trap you actually don't have to do 44K PO for a BT B+K. If your timing is excellent you could do a 44K standard into 3bK PO Cancel and repeat the last part of the sequence 3bK Po Cancel, 1 BA Po Cancel, FC 1 A+B, 44K). If they stupid enough to try and tech again you an rinse and repeat, and put the opponent in an unlimited stun combo (3bK Po Cancel, 1 BA Po Cancel, FC 1 A+B, 44K, 3bK Po Cancel, 1 BA Po Cancel, FC 1 A+B 44K,........~).
The reason why I recommend this over just doing a standard 44K stun combo is the fact on block 44K standard is extremely punishable on block and if you catch the opponent in a TT it's damn near impossible to shake the stun (only if they start shaking after the stun). I believe 44K is probably the hardest stun to shake in the game, but i'm not 100% sure on that.
*tries it out*^
Yea you can't PO cancel into a FC, just 4, but the thing is if you combine 4G you will go straight into guard and then can go into duck afterwards.
