Throw counterability

    Hi just wondering if anyone knows how to discover if a move is throw counterable or not?

    I mean technically throws are instantaneous so doesn't that mean you should be able to throw someone after blocking any move where you recover first and are near your opponent?,do you need a certain number of frames adv?

    First off, there's the lists. But I know you are more asking about the mechanical aspects. RSW's VF Page contain notes in the moves lists on if they re high or low throw counterable.

    If I remember correctly, 25 (maybe it was 30?) frames recovery was the determinant? Well, thank goodness throw counterable moves are clearly makred on <A target="_blank" HREF=http://world.std.com/~opus/vf>Rich's Site</A>

    Just checked the site... Looks like any move that has a frame disadvantage of at least 9 when blocked. However, 3d movement is also a factor. For instance Akira's b,f+P+K (back throw counterable) or Aoi's dedging sidekick and their frame disadvantage to a block are less than 9.

    you need +8 in frame advantage to throw after blocking something, +9 to throw if hit, +1 if MC. and for many moves the numbers might be there, but it's impossible due to positional and range variables.

    I dun know all these frame rates n stuff...
    too confusing for me.
