Throws

Command Normals

1. Geshiki: Yumebiki - f+A, A

  • swipes forward with his hand, which looks identical to his far C
  • can be followed up by A, which does decent damage but will only connect from close range
  • the A followup is cancellable into specials and DMs, f+A by itself is only cancellable to DMs


2. Geshiki: Goufu In "Shinigame" - f+B

  • Iori does a very slow ax kick
  • since it comes out so slow, it isn't of practical use. It can be punished on hit by a few moves unless cancelled out of
  • overhead
  • cancellable if cancelled into


3. Geshiki: Yuri Ori - b+B(air)

  • Iori kicks behind himself
  • Jumping behind is pretty much the only way to hit with this move, although some characters have large enough hitboxes that this move can hit from the front

  • can be crouched under by most characters
