Movelist

A movelist, often referred to as frame data, is a list of moves a character can do and details of those moves' properties. Movelists vary both in how many of a character's moves they list, and in how detailed those listings are.

Wavu Wiki movelists strive to be as comprehensive and readable as possible while also being dense enough for use as reference material, so reading them can be daunting at first. But don't lose hope – you get used to it pretty quickly.

For editors, see also:

• {{Move}} for documentation on how to add or modify move entries in movelists
• Wavu:Movelist for a standard of how movelist pages are organized

Header

NameThe name of the move in the English localization.Most often directly from the in-game movelist, but can also be a community name.

AltOther inputs that also perform this move, written in notation.

InputThe input to perform the move, written in notation. This is often used as the move's name.For strings, the input of the previous moves in the string is shown but washed out.

Hit levelThe hit level of the move.Capital letters mean it hits grounded.For strings,​ the hit level of the previous moves in the string is shown but washed out.

DamageHow much damage the move does without any modifiers.For strings,​ the damage of the previous moves in the string is shown but washed out.

RangeThe maximum range recorded of the move hitting Lars on-axis. (For Tekken 7, it's vs Heihachi.) Assume an error of about ±0.03.For strings, this is the range of the whole string.This measurement shouldn't on its own be used to compare characters: larger characters get more "range" by this measure, but their opponents do too.

Left TrackingThe tracking score to the attacker's left.Roughly speaking, when up close, if the defender sidesteps or sidewalks right for no more than this many frames, the move still connects.

Right TrackingThe tracking score to the attacker's right.Roughly speaking, when up close, if the defender sidesteps or sidewalks left for no more than this many frames, the move still connects.

BlockThe frame advantage on block.Blank if the move can't be blocked (e.g., an unblockable or an aerial attack).For breakable throws, this is the frame advantage when the throw is broken.

HitThe frame advantage on hit.Blank if the move is not an attack, e.g. is a stance transition only.For throws, this is the frame advantage after the throw.

CHThe frame advantage on counter hit.Blank if this is the same as on normal hit, i.e. there is no special behavior on counter hit.

StartupThe active frames of the attack. The "i" stands for "impact", i.e. impact frame.If there is more than one hit, a comma indicates that frame 1 is now the frame after the last active frame of the previous hit.For strings, therefore, this usually has a leading comma.

StatesThe frames where the attacker is in any special states, e.g. jump, parry, or powercrush.

RecoveryThe total number of frames, the recovery frames, and what stance the move recovers in, if any.The "t" stands for total and "r" for recovery. If no stance is listed, the move recovers in the default, standing position.For strings, the total frame count is from the start of the string with no delays.

NotesAnything that doesn't fit elsewhere.Many common move properties, such as whether a string can be delayed, go here.See Movelist#Notes for standard wording of common properties.

The above header, created from {{MoveDataHeader}}, has tooltips for each heading briefly describing what info is in each cell.

Notes

Many common properties are stuffed into the notes field. The following standard wording is used for these properties (see {{MoveDataIcon}} for colored ones):

Homing

Is homing. Can't be sidestepped.

Tailspin

Will cause a screw against an aerial opponent. Implies "Balcony break".

Spike

Will spike an aerial opponent, preventing them from tech rolling. Implies "Floor break".

Floor Break

Can floor break.

Balcony Break

Can wall/balcony break.

Wall Bounce

Will cause a wall bounce against standing opponent if he hits the wall. Implies "Balcony break".

Clean hit {frame advantage}

Can clean hit, will be at frame advantage {frame advantage} if it does.

Example: "Clean hit +24a"

Throw break {input}

Throw can be broken with {input}.

Example: "Throw break 1+2"

Throw break {input} on frame {range}

Throw can be broken with {input} during frames {range}.

Example: "Throw break 1+2 on frame 1~20"

Move can be delayed {frames}f

Active frames can be delayed up to {frames} frames. Implies "Input can be delayed {frames}f".

Example: "Move can be delayed 2f"

Input can be delayed {frames}f

Input can be delayed up to {frames} frames after the last active frame of the previous move in the string (when non-delayable strings can no longer be input).

Example: "Input can be delayed 4f"

Transition to {recovery} with {input}

Pressing {input} during startup will change recovery to {recovery}

Example: "Transition to r21 HMS with 3+4"

Transition input can be delayed {frames}f

Input for stance transition can be delayed up to {frames} frames from the first active frame of the last hit (when non-delayable transitions can no longer be input).

Example: "Transition input can be delayed 8f"

Enter {stance} {frame advantage} with {input} on {block/hit/ch}

Pressing {input} after the move {block/hit/ch} will transition to {stance} with {frame advantage}

Example: "Enter RSS +9 with F on hit"

Enter {stance} {frames on block} {frames on hit} {frames on ch} {total frames} {recovery frames} with {input}

A generalized version of the above. Frame data should be included in the order shown above.

Example: "Enter KNK -9 +2 with b"

Combo from {nth} {hit/CH}

Is guaranteed to hit in neutral if {nth} move in the string {hit/ch}.

Example: "Combo from 2nd hit"

Combo from {nth} {hit/CH} with {frames}f delay

Is guaranteed to hit in neutral if input is delayed up to {frames} frames and the {nth} move in the string {hit/ch}.

Example: "Combo from 3rd CH with 14f delay"

Jail from {nth} attack

Opponent is forced to block if {nth} move in the string is blocked. Implies "Combo from {nth} {hit/ch}".

Example: "Jail from 1st attack"

Jail from {nth} block

Opponent is forced to block if {nth} move in the string is blocked. Does not imply "Combo from {nth} {hit/ch}".

Example: "Jail from 3rd block"

Jail from {nth} {attack/block} with {frames}f delay

Opponent is forced to block if input is delayed up to {frames} and the {nth} move in the string is blocked.

Example: "Jail from 1st attack with 4f delay"
