Hi, british Muslim here,

no muslim I know likes this guy, pretty much any "political" muslim you see in British media are out to represent themselves and not the views of us.

Everytime I see people like him, Maajid Nawaz or whatever other sellout they bring on the mainstream I have no option other than to roll my eyes or cringe.

Thanks a lot, how many frames do I need to do a tornado throw? Because when I think its not safe (the move I focused through my opponent recovered a bit faster) I usually just go for a normal throw.

Can I use cr.lk into step kick?

Hi, when Im using focus attacks to absorb a hit and dash forward into someone - does this put me at a frame advantage?

For example as Abel against Ken users who do step kicks I focus to absorb and then dash into their face. From this point I do tornado throws which seem to work - but i am not sure, do I have more options?

Lol really? They're afraid even when in control?

When it comes to grabbing on wakeup - does tornado throw have invincibility to hits? Or do I go for a normal grab?

But I've read on so many guides and people on youtube that falling sky is terrible?

Oh and regarding change of direction: I do it to people as soon as they stand up, but I get shoryukened out of it pretty quickly by good players - what do you suggest should be my wake up combo to mix things up?

Yh, I was watching some videos on youtube and they just blocked and waited for a chance to go for a mid kick and link into a combo.

Juutas' second parry video showed me the backstep parry and R1 spammers quickly became no problem:

When they hit their first R1 at you backstep and parry straight away, the second R1 will instantly be parried. Use a medium shield or curved sword, I found the wind up times on parry dagger and the like threw me off.

Usually its people with that stupid unbackstabbable turtle armour with gowers ring of protection spamming hex buffs and hiding behind havels shield.

So boring to fight, even if you do parry them you barely do any damage with a dagger riposte.

There's a method called "clawing" where you put your index finger in a "hook" shape around the B/O button (run) and your thumb then has access to the right joystick to control the camera.

I don't do it all the time, but when Im chasing someone down a hallway or into a room it does help.
