Tech rolling VS Quick Rise

sorry if this has been discussed before... I did a search and turned up nothing.

It seems like tech-rolling is better in all cases than a quickrise (rise in place). It gets up faster, gets out of the way of pounces better, etc.

Are there any situations where a QR is a better idea?

 

It's been discussed before, and you should check out the document (<a target="_blank" href=http://virtuafighter.com/view.php?section=vf4&file=vf4_break_fall.html>http://virtuafighter.com/view.php?section=vf4&file=vf4_break_fall.html</a>) that's hosted on this very site.

 

I have actually read that doc, and its very useful, but it seems that while they are subtley different, a TR is always better than a QR.

they both have similar risks: you can be hit with mid attacks in the while-standing or crouching phase....

but the TR avoids pounces and is faster (at least to my eyes)...

what about specific examples where one might QR instead of TR?

 

Hmm, pay attention to the bit in the document of how you can get backstaggered from a QR or a TR.
