Description
Crouch Confirm is a strategic and timing-based technique in fighting games. It involves a player staying in a crouched position and initiating an attack, such as a low punch or kick. Upon confirming that the attack has successfully connected with the opponent, the player then proceeds to execute a more powerful follow-up move or combo. This technique requires quick reflexes and precise timing, as the player must be able to distinguish between a hit and a block within a fraction of a second. Crouch Confirms are often used to start combos safely and ensure that the subsequent attacks will not be wasted or leave the player vulnerable. Mastering this technique can give players a significant edge in competitive play, as it minimizes the risk of being countered while maximizing damage output.
Examples
- In 'Street Fighter V,' players often use crouching medium punches to confirm into special moves or combos, ensuring that the initial hit connects before committing to a more significant attack.
- In 'Tekken 7,' a common crouch confirm involves using a low jab to hit-check the opponent, followed by a launcher or a juggle combo if the jab connects.
Additional Information
- Crouch Confirms are particularly useful for characters with strong low attacks.
- Practicing in training mode against a blocking opponent can help players improve their crouch confirming skills.
