Revision as of 19:10, 6 February 2024
Electric Wind God Fist (EWGF or electric) is an iconic and difficult move of the Mishima-archetype characters, used as a pressure tool and a whiff punisher. It's a powerful version of the Wind God Fist, a Wave dash launcher move.
How to do
It's a Just Frame move, needing you to input the final command and button at the same frame. The character you choose will shout a word (for example Kazuya will say Dorya), and a bigger and louder electric effect will appear at their right arm. If you press the button a bit later, it's the Wind God Fist version that will come out, a -10 on block launcher with more recovery, no pushback and less damage.
Characters with an EWGF
The characters with an Electric are mostly from the Mishima bloodline: Kazuya, Reina, Devil Jin and Jin.
Kazuya has two ways to do an EWGF, from the wave dash (f,n,d,df) and from his Mist Step (f,n,df), a special step where he walks to one of his sides and can do the same wavedash moves. The Mist Step, since it's 3 commands instead of 4 and being just f,n,df, he can do Electrics one frame faster, allowing him to do things like the Perfect Electric Wind God Fist (PEWGF), a 1-frame combo starting with ws2 into EWGF for high damage. Reina can also perform the PEWGF by using her Wind Step.
Reina has another Just Frame move, called Electric War God Kick (EWGK), performed by inputting f,n,df#3.
Jin has a different electric from the other Mishimas, called Electric Wind Hook Fist (EWHF), with similar execution but with the differential being a more limited combo after hitting than the other characters, and he also cannot loop consecutive EWHFs into a combo like the other Mishimas, being restricted to only 1 EWHF after a launcher.
Characters with a similar tool
While the Mishima family has the powerful version, some characters has tools with same purposes:
- Armor King has the Dark Upper (Dark Smash in the move list), a Wave dash launcher with similar properties of Wind God Fist, being a high Full Launcher with same startup, -10 on block and no pushback. But since he hasn't a Just Frame version, it's used more exclusively as a whiff punisher tool.
- Bob has the CD.df+1 (Langue Washer in the move list), working more like Jin's EWHF, a high screw launcher. While it isn't plus on block and has more startup than the other characters (i16), it's safe enough (-3 on block), which can be used more oppressively than Armor King and not restricted to whiff punishment, although with the same Jin limitations regarding combo duration and damage.
