Whiffing, A Pirate's Dilemna

[Zasalamel79]

Ok, i play some SC 4 yesterday with friends and you no what the one thing that pizzed me off what the the whiffing and getting hit by high when u crouch.

Cervantes + (Mid) will not hit Yoshimtsu using + ( his stance where the grabs his second sword and leans forward a fit) This might be random or not but am not sure i want to ask if anyone will know about these.

The other thing about getting hit by highs when ur TCing. Myfriend does Nightmare i blocked this and his instant follow up is Nightmare bitch slap with his hugh claw ( dont know exact button input) which is a high. When ever he does this u can interupt him after a blocked before he has a chance to bitch slap u. If i do + which TC it will hit him on CH after a blocked , but if i do + which TC aswell ( and is 4 frames faster than +) i get bitched slapped for a +15 and the followup. Is ther something am missing here about this.

Also is ther any other weird sheet that happends with Cervantes.

the TC frames on some moves aren't always active for the duration of the move, often times it's only TC at a certain point. They aren't T5 style high crush moves. Well, not all of them anyway.

Your most reliable TC move is going to be iWS A.

And the "bitch slap" you're referring to is GS A, so you don't have to call it the bitch slap any more. (Correct me if I'm wrong?)
But it can be easily avoided by blocking.

I dont want to sound like asshole but how do you avoid something by blocking. If i wanted to avoid it i would side step to nightmare's left. what am talking about is using a move TC's but u stil get hit by high hits, which is what tech crouch is suppose to do.

P.S. i prefer the term "bitch slap" more
