While Potemkin is the stand out in terms of this technique, "kara cancelling" exists in many fighting games. Here's a guide on how to kara cancel in Guilty Gear Strive.

Correction: Kara Garuda is quarter circle back, forward. Not half circle back, forward. If you were to input it like that with 50% meter you’d get Kara Giganter. Other than that, good video.

I don't know why I can't do kara garuda. I can do kara buster, kara back megafist, but can't do kara garuda for some reason. I have a hitbox with sanwa buttons, I heard someone in reddit that also had the same problem with the same setting, I think it may be a specific timing problem with those buttons?

Kara Potbuster is definitely essential to using Pot at a high level, or even intermediate. It increases his offensive potential by a ton. After that, kara garuda and kara heat knuckle are probably the most important. Kara back megafist is also a huge part of his optimal combos and something you want to eventually utilise. Doing it midcombo has it's own quirks you'll need to wrangle with. But when you're just starting out, you don't need to learn karas right away. I recommend just practicing them for a few minutes every time you boot up the game. Over time you'll get better and more consistent and be able to implement them into your gameplay.

The technique that's generally easier for those is actually different than the traditional Kara input. Most people find it easier to do buffer Kara QCBs where the buffer 6K during hitstop and then do 214P after that. Time it right, and 6K-214P gets you kBMF for your loops. The difference is significant on "messier" input devices like pads.

It's harder regardless of your button configuration simply by virtue of needing to get more inputs in the same amount of time. Your window between last direction and button doesn't get larger just because you're kara canceling, and for moves that don't end in 6 you have to fit 6k in there instead of just k.

I was practicing this a while back and just couldn't do it consistently. maybe I just gotta grind harder. I'm really bad at execution stuff which is why I picked Pot initially cause I didn't think he'd be someone I'd have to learn really big combos with. but then I found out about the kara stuff. I feel like I'm only playing half potential now since I can't quite nail the kara stuff.

Go into training mode and turn on inputs, and practice trying to roll the inputs (basically, you're rolling your fingers to hit both buttons, one slightly before the other) and watch your inputs. If you see the two buttons on the same line you're doing it wrong, you wanna see them one right after the other. It helped me visualize it anyway because the principle of kara inputs and plinking is the same lol Edit: I meant you wanna see the button you're doing the kara with first and then together lol sorry
@chemicalexposure8537
@chemicalexposure8537 2 жыл бұрын
Kara cancelling as pot is a 2 frame window. If you miss that window by plinking too late, you get 6k. If you press the buttons at the same time, you get a normal special The input history in training for kara buster should look like: 6PK 6K 4 1 etc Replace P with whatever other special move button you're using If you get don't get the separate 6k in the input history, you pressed the buttons at the same time (too soon). If you do, but you get 6k, you pressed the special move button too late Hope this helps!

Kara is great in terms of the options it opens up; but is garbage in terms of the execution requirements. Hopefully devs make it more accessible. This could have been handled as different versions of the move(s) with their own unique properties. Execution barriers are not core to fighting games and is utilized by the developers as a lazy way to balance their game, but the FGC loves to pretend that execution is an important part to the genre and that without execution barriers their game is dead. How wrong they are is beyond me. This is my "I don't care if my statement triggered you" insurance. :P
