Yun-Seong General Discussion

A move whiffs when it misses the opponent (In other words, it doesn't make any contact with the opponent). Also, the weapon itself doesn't make a difference outside of special.
 
Hey thanks for the info. So a whiff is a deliberate part of the game? Is it caused by timing? Yun whiffs a lot.
I actually get amused when his 4B+K Unblockable lands and swirls around the opponent, but doesn't touch them...LOL. Of course, I feel cheated. But it's called a whiff.
I'll admit, people whiff on me too, especially when transitioning to CR. i can hear them calling Yun cheap through the TV. But I think I whiff more though.
But what about their attacks that cancel mine. Are there negative-whiffs, attacks that should miss, but end up hitting?
 
Yun's CR is a defensive stance that will evade all vertical attacks. Evasion moves are slightly different to whiffing because they are set in what you can do afterward. Forcing a whiff, means you have stepped away from, ducked or jumped over an attack so that it misses you, and you are in a position to input an attack of your choice to try punish your opponent.

Oh and only Astaroth has a negative Whiff.
 
fun question : How would yun fare if he had SC2's 4A+B, the move that crouched, and GI'd mids ?

interesting. I like jumping over crouched opponents. Yun does that quite smoothly.
Okay, smart guy:
What about Yun's B(while rising). It's that vertical stab, that a lot of times whiffs to the side of the opponent standing right infront of Yun.. It looks like a magicians magic trick.
Sometimes it hits, and it's great. Other times it misses. Is that a whiff? and what causes it?
 
It's a linear vertical high. Therefore, it can be stepped or ducked. All it takes sometimes is for the opponent to shift slightly to one side for a certain move to miss.

Ah SC3's 3B+K. I felt lost without that move for a minute. It'd be lovely if he had it. I used it for the TC more than the aGI. But CR does what that move did a lot better aGI-wise. He's fine without it. They'd probably make it unsafe per the current trend anyway -_-

Oh BTW Mikosu, your Yun is good yo. But it's ok since you know like all his combos :P
 
Are these combos guaranteed?

66:B:+:K: to :A:+:B::B:
66:B:+:K: to 66:A:+:B:
66:B:+:K: to 66:B:

I was goofing around with him today, and found that the com couldn't excape these if 66:B:+:K: hit. I usually do them to mix up his wake-up game.
 
Most damaging followup to 66B+K is 8KKK.
The only reason to use something else, is when you're out of range for it to connect. In this case 66A+B should be the best option.

They should all be guaranteed though, however I'm not quite sure about the last hit in A+B,B without testing.
 
Hi there, first post in the Yun forums here.
I just wanted to make this forum a bit more alive so let's discuss his Oki games :D.
Wich is my question really....what are good oki moves (for example after a throw or a knockdown)?.
 
There aren't any good, as sad as it is. As long as they stay grounded and just keep rolling your vertical stuff like 66B, there is nothing you can do to really hurt them.

A+K often whiffs through rolling opponents and is only useful if they stand up anyway.

1K,2K sucks, because they just block the second kick and you'll eat more damage in return than you dished out.

1K,kG can work a few times, but if you abuse it, almost every WS move or throw will catch you. Although I kinda like being in crane for Oki, it doesn't really favour Yun imo. They just have to stay on the ground and you don't have anything to hit them except A+K. Have that blocked and you'll get punished. Usually they just roll to my back and wait for the A+K. If I do it... punishment... if I don't, I'm in BT crane, hooray. Uncharged A+B will miss more often than not and the charged version is at least blockable on reaction and with though luck they're already behind you until it goes off :D

66K seems to be the best you can do.
 
Well okay 66K it is then, btw doesn't 22B catch rollers after...for example..the auto evade attack throw?
I use it alot but it may be that I was just lucky or the were rolling the wrong direction. Anyway I'll try to use 66K more then.
 
In general all of Yun's oki is side rollable like Zas' except for 1K. 66K is rollable. Don't use 22B for that. Too unsafe and linear. His oki only matters when they're KND and can't roll immediately. I outlined some situations in his Gameplan Guide. Check that thread out if you haven't.

66B+K A+B MSH B is AC-able but in 2 weird directions so you might get it to land. I only recommend it after 236KK as a tech trap since 8KKK can whiff.
 
sorry but im new to the whole in depth soul cal thing but i just got on here to find some good comp my main is yun seong and i feel i am extremely good and need some good comp so hit me up im on xbox 360 and my tag is chase221
 
I've always noticed that Yun's 9B+K has a weird hitbox (hits in front of him, a bit to his right, and even behind him during the last frames). Are there any cool set-ups/tricks for that move?
 
Sorry about the notation mistake, but yeah that's the one I meant. It always seemed like one of his better moves, especially since it tracks at weird angles.
 
It's punishable and somewhat slow, so you should only use it in anticipation of a low. The only cool thing about the move is the bt launch but good luck at landing that. I'd be interested in some setups for this, the bt combo is just the flashiest thing Yun can pull off :D
