Ultra Street Fighter IV/Deejay/Introduction

Introduction

Dee Jay has managed to fuse his two true loves together: fighting and dancing. Using his impeccable rhythm and flexibility from dancing, Dee Jay managed to literally dance around his opponents and defeat them in a Street Fight. with his prowess as a kickboxer. But despite what may happen on the dance floor or in the ring, Dee Jay never gets his spirits down and a smile never leaves his face. And as he builds up more wins and gains more popularity as a Street Fighter, it certainly couldn't hurt his record sales!

While he has very few aspects in which he excels, Dee Jay provides a variety of different playstyles that he can easily switch between depending on what the situation calls for. His Air Slashers can allow him to play a zoning game, and his other special moves like Machinegun Upper and Double Rolling Sobat allow him to act as an effective rushdown character. No matter which playstyle you choose, you should always aim to get your opponent into the corner. With no room for your opponent to back up, they will be much more susceptible to being hit by Dee Jay's attacks, which will have more combo potential and mix-up ambiguity.

Frame Data Glossary - USFIV
Active	How many frames a move remains active (can hurt opponents) for. For projectiles with a limited active period, a value may be listed in [brackets], but this number is not factored into the move's total frame count. For multi-hit moves with no gaps between the active hitboxes, active frames are listed as X,Y. For multi-hit moves with gaps between hits, active frames are listed as X(n)Y where n = the frame gap between active hitboxes.
Cancel	Available options for canceling one move into another move. "Chn": Chain cancel (Light normals) "TC": Target Combo "Sp": Special move "Su": Super Combo "FA": Focus Attack Note: Su and FA almost always share the same cancel properties, except that EX moves can't cancel into Supers outside Training Mode "j" or "Jmp": Jump cancel (usually on hit only, if applicable) "sj" or "hj": Super Jump or High Jump cancel (Ibuki and C. Viper only) "Dash": Dash cancelable (e.g. Focus Attack dash cancel) If one hit of a multi-hit attack is cancelable, this can be indicated with (1st), (2nd), etc.
Damage	Attack damage on hit. Multi-hit moves may have the damage listed for individual hits as X,Y. Damage listed in () parentheses may be the total damage of all hits, or the damage of an alternate version (like a non-cinematic Ultra connect) based on context. This will usually be explained in the description.
Guard	Refers to the direction an attack must be blocked. L is for Low attacks (must be blocked crouching), H is for High attacks/overheads (must be blocked standing), HL is for attacks that can be blocked crouching or standing. T is for Throw attacks which cannot be blocked. If an attack cannot be blocked, like a Level 3 Focus Attack, no Guard property will be listed (and no Block data will be given in the frame data columns).
On Hit/Block	These are frame advantage values when the attack hits or is blocked. If the number is positive, then the move will recover before the defender can act again. If the number is negative, the defender will be able to act before the attacker and maybe even punish. In general, Counter-hit adds +1 hit advantage to Light normals and +3 to Medium/Heavy normals. Exceptions or unique Counter-hit properties should be noted in the move data. KD refers to knockdown on hit, with SKD = Soft Knockdown (allows quick wake-up) and HKD = Hard Knockdown (no quick wake-up). If a KD Advantage is listed (HKD +30), this refers to the amount of time the attacker is free to move before the defender has recovered from their knockdown. This also assumes that Delayed Wake-up is not used. Some USFIV characters have non-standard wakeup timings, so this refers to the most common timing (tested on Ryu).
Recovery	How many frames it takes for a move to finish after the active frames have finished. For projectiles, recovery is considered to begin after the first active frame. Airborne moves may have recovery listed as X+Y land, where X is the airborne recovery and Y is the landing recovery.
Startup	How many frames it takes before the move becomes 'active' or have a hit box. The last startup frame and the first active frame are the same frame, meaning all values are written as Startup + 1. Moves with multiple relevant startup values may be listed as X(Y); for example, a move that hits airborne first before hitting grounded opponents, or a 2-hit move where the first hit whiffs at some ranges.
Juggle Info	When a character is put into an Air Knockdown state, it is often possible to follow up with a Juggle attack before they hit the ground. In the simplest terms, there are 2 main juggle states: Free Juggle: any attack can juggle, causing an Air Reset or an Air Knockdown Limited Juggle: only specific attacks with juggle potential may juggle The following is a more detailed overview of the juggle system: Juggle Count (JC): The status of the character being juggled. A high JC limits which attacks can work in juggles. JC0: free juggle state - any attack that can hit an airborne opponent will work JC1+: limited juggle state - juggle only works if the attack's Juggle Limit ≥ defender's Juggle Count Juggle Start (JS): When starting a juggle, the opponent's JC will be set to this value. Attack with Juggle Start value of 3 will put opponent at JC3, so only attacks with Juggle Limit value ≥ 3 can follow up Juggle Increase (JI): When opponent is already in a juggle state, attacks will increase the opponent's JC by this amount. Airborne opponent at JC1 followed by attack with Juggle Increase value of 3 will set opponent to JC4 Juggle Limit (JL): Property of an attack hitbox that determines whether it connects on a juggled opponent. The JL must be ≥ the opponent's JC to hit successfully. An uppercut with a JL value of 5 will connect on an opponent at JC5 or below, but will whiff on JC6 opponent Most normals have a JL value of 0, meaning they only work in Free Juggle (JC0) states Some multi-hit attacks have different JL values on each hit, so a 3-hit move may only hit twice in juggles An example to tie everything together: An attack (JS3) launches opponent into the air (Opponent now at JC3) Followed up with an attack (JI2/JL4); it connects, because JL4 ≥ JC3 (Opponent now at JC5) Attempts to juggle again with same attack (JL4), but whiffs because JL4 < JC5 (Opponent hits the ground)
