Description
The term 'Taunt Jet Upper' originates from the popular fighting game series, Street Fighter, specifically attributed to the character Dudley. The move involves Dudley performing his taunt, which in this case is him throwing a rose, immediately followed by his powerful 'Jet Upper' attack. This combination not only showcases the player's dexterity and mastery of the character but also serves to demoralize the opponent by adding a flourish before delivering a significant blow. It's a combination that requires precise timing and understanding of both the taunt animation and the 'Jet Upper' execution, making it a favorite among skilled players looking to demonstrate their prowess.
Examples
- In a high-level Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike tournament, a player used Taunt Jet Upper to finish off a match, showcasing both their skill and their ability to psych out their opponent.
- During an online match in Street Fighter V, a player taunted their opponent with Dudley's rose and immediately followed it up with a Jet Upper, turning the tide of the battle and securing a knockout.
Additional Information
- The move is not only about damage but also about psychological warfare, as the taunt can frustrate opponents.
- Mastering this combination requires extensive practice due to the precise timing needed between the taunt and the Jet Upper.
