Slipping and avoiding attacks

So the way I understand it is that slipping in an direction but backward avoids highs and throws, but I seem to get standing-thrown regularly while slipping. Does anyone have any reliable info?

Thanks.

 

Would timing a ducking dash forward and backwards really fast do this. If you know some one might do a throw and you do a crouching dash back to evade the attack and attack right away while they are recovering even dashing forwards slightly while they are recovering.

 

Just to add to what Myke said, you CAN be low thrown while Slipping Left/Right.
But yeah, slipping to avoid a throw and countering with hook to the head is very satisfying.

 

Well, I have to confirm that slipping left/right does not avoid high throws. Maybe my timing is off, though.

 

I understood what you said, bro, and you're right... but I don't think hook interrupts throw attempts though. I'll have to test some more.

 

Any attack interrupts a throw attempt. You just have to make sure you've actually started the attack animation. For instance, you can buffer an attack during recovery frames, but you can still be thrown until the recovery actually ends. I don't actually know whether there are frames where you can be thrown between the slipping animation and the start of the attack from slipping, unfortunately. But to sum up, everything in this game is timing.
