This pretty cool. The beginning is the d throw to nair footstool setup but with pk freeze, so it makes sense that it works. Overall cool stuff dude. Glad to see more people use pk freeze.

Yeah. It might work on most people if they don't mash out quick enough.
It's all good fun, however.

I always appreciate feedback!

Calling it "PK Freeze footstool jab lock" is kind of a misnomer since the PK Freeze had zero to do with the actual footstool to jab lock, but PK Freeze off of down throw seems like a nice way to rack up damage early since you can get a quick 9% tacked on before you even do the follow-up 12% with nair. Always nice to find more mix-ups to apply to my game.

True. I going to change the title. Sadly, this isn't a true combo, but it can't hit if they try to attack.

Freeze off down throw isn't a combo, but it's almost guaranteed that if you did it at low percents the opponent would airdodge out of fear, letting you follow them down for a more powerful freeze.

Oh sorry I meant guaranteed.
I still have to practice on the follow up freeze because they can airdodge or jump in time.
Unless I'm wrong because I tested this with real people when they were at 0%

Sorry, should've been clearer; I was just replying to Jose planning on doing Freeze out of a down throw.

I guess we have to read how they react and time it correctly. I was aiming for an alternative to the common neutral airs, but it's still a cool follow up, though.
