Basic Q&A Thread

Sorry i meant to escape the grab. Since you can use A to cancel an A+G grab and B to cancel a B+G grab, can u cancel either one with a simple A+B button. Maybe my timing is wrong but im having a hard time canceling with A+B
 
Is there a difference between an auto GI or a meter costing GI?
Some auto GI only GI certain things (Ex. SBH aGI does horizontals only). The window for some aGI is also vastly different, aPat's A+B for example has rather tight timing (aGI all mids) while Sieg's SBH will last forever as long as he is in that stance. aPat's also "levels" the more you successfully do it during a match and with Sieg's you get 91 free damage if the game is on your side. There are many other examples for unique aGI aftereffects but those two are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
 
I was playing and i noticed that sometimes, moves do less damage when used in combos (such as patroklus' CE in his 66b 66B+K CE combo. Is there a rate at which moves do less damage?
 
^That's an excellent question, I want to know that myself. It seems different for each character to me. Nightmare gets scaled way less than Siegfried.
 
The more the hits in a combo the less the damage they do, specially those ones that come last.
Check Viola's crazy combos or Leixia's, or anyone else's. If the moves in the combos did their normal damage, then I guess the matches would end really fast. Specially a Viola-Elysium would end the match in no time with one combo, just by taking advantage a single mistake...

So yeah I guess the damage reduced depends on the moves' properties, the combo length and the position your opponent has. Also it depends on their health as the moves' damage is reduced once the lifebar turns into yellow.
 
What're the recommended sizes for banners? I want something big, but not too invasive. Not certain on the rules regarding the allowed height, so figured I'd ask here for general consensus.
 
If it's too tall, it scrolls within your sig and without stretching anything. The rest is common sense, I'd hope...

I ought have mentioned it's not designed for a sig. My bad. But yeah it seems obvious, I just wasn't sure if there was a max limit, though I doubt I'd hit it anyway.
 
Is it just me or if you play too much you cant do CE quickly anymore? :'( I've played like couple hours a day for a week... Im C3.
