Thanks to Ring, we have access to the frame data for most characters in Soulcalibur II. Here is the frame data list for Nightmare (Siegfried):
This next section shows the frame data where it may fluctuate:Ring said:
This final section shows the differences between recovery frames after landing an attack on normal hit, counter hit, crouched hit, grounded hit or the recovery frames after your attack is blocked or blocked while rising:Ring said:
Please note that this is subject to change as PS may decide to release patches with the HD version.Ring said:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
H/B Data
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
H = regular hit
C = counter hit
D = crouched hit
G = grounded hit
B = blocked
R = blocked while rising
Frame advantage is a fluctuating number. The amount varies with the moment of impact. Your recovery time starts as soon as you've input a move. Your opponents hit / block stun starts from the impact frame. Therefore, the later you hit your opponent during the animation of a move, the more advantage / less disadvantage you end up with. Try to touch your opponent with the tip of the sword / foot for maximal advantage / minimal disadvantage.Regular Moves
