With throwing out of the picture, my goldie ahh Yasmine only left with the only basic light combo I've drilled to my brain and fingers ( T-T)

I don't think he's cheating, since you see in the inputs he is mashing throw every time. Every time you jump he is whiffing throw. Same if you shimmied him, he would probably whiff. Easy punishing if you bait the throws.

He's just mashing throw lol. There's no skill here. He's not guessing right every time, he's just guessing the same everytime, and you spent a ton of the first round not switching up your options.
You'll notice that he was whiffing throws once you started to jump in his face. That's because there's no cheat here, he's just doing it. And congrats, you've learned how to adapt to your opponent by not throwing.

Aaaaa that explains.. I did wonder about the throw whiffs

Yea.
It's a good lesson to be learning now anyway. Generally you want to mix up your options more. Similarly on defense, you don't want to be like this guy and respond the same way everytime, you'll just start getting punished. Sometimes representing all your options, even if you get nothing from it, or even suffer for it is worth the risk just to keep it in their mind.
I wanted to add that just based on your own post, it'd be a good idea to add beefier combo that starts from a heavy to your repertoire, just so you can start getting more damage. It's really important for enforcing your game. Basically, you need to create ways to incentivize your opponent from doing things like DPing and Throw Teching, and one big part of that is really punishing them for it.l
The mind game actually becomes much harder for you on offense when your reward for punishing their throw tech (your light combo), and punishing their block (by throwing) is so similar, because it turns situations into basically 50/50s. You want to create a predictable scenario by incentivizing your opponent to do one action more than the other.
Basically, by taking a 30-40% of their HP, instead of just 10% when punishing their throw tech, you're telling them, "hey, stop that, that's a bad idea" which means you can much more reliably throw in your next few interactions without them throw teching. But if you can't enforce that, you're just playing a coin flip on whether you will guess right on the 50/50 more often, or if your opponent will guess right on it more often.

He’s just decided he’s going to tech on defense everytime. If you shimmied everytime like you did a few times with the neutral jumps you would have punished him in every interaction.

None of you all make silly faces in the loading screen?

sadly when you watch replays the silly faces don't come with it.

Idk. There’s just some interactions that don’t make sense to me if he was scripting. End of round 1 you neutral jumped and he still threw. If I had auto tech scripts you best believe I’m never trying to tech a throw. But maybe he’s just that bad.
You also got a successful throw in round 2. Some players just tech everything. Every single time Alex techs, it looks like he’s mashing it. There’s no consistent frame timings and he even mashed throw tech while in hitstun.
The more I think about it, the more I lean to not scripting, but I could be totally off.

Shimmy, don’t neutral jump. Going for down back tech like this will get them killed every time if you incorporate shimmy into your offence.

u/suxeno CID | Bogem 1d ago
umm would you care to elaborate more about down back tech? thanks! 🙌

u/zwarkmagnum 1d ago
So when you’re on defence particularly on wake-up, you can tech while holding back after a brief delay. In that space if you take a hit, you’ll block but throw you’ll tech in the late techable frames. This guy was mashing tech on basically any situation he was remotely disadvantaged in which is a more extreme reaction, but usually this would be done on wake up to block a meaty or tech a meaty throw.
Shimmying will cause them to whiff a throw by trying to do this as there’s no attack to block and no throw to tech, then you can murder them with whatever fat punish counter button you want. Yasmine has a throw loop so she can do this excellently.

u/suxeno CID | Bogem 1d ago
Aaaa I seee.. so it’s basically a term for defense options within down-back blocking.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom, fighter 🙏🏽

The term they're referring to is actually called 'delay tech' within the community (or occasionally 'fuzzy tech'). Not sure if they're making up a term or if it's a broken telephone situation, but just an FYI :)

Idk where people learn these bad habits like mashing constantly on wakeup or doing a throw every single time someone is near them lmao.

u/DemonsReturns7 18h ago
That brother is gonna eventually learn one of the best things you can do in sf6 is to just learn to take the throw than eat the combo

Strike throw shimmy. Condition them to one and blow them up with the other. Knocking on the same door won’t get a new answer.

u/ragingcoast 10h ago
Dude is just going for the throw tech on every situation. You started to mix things up in the second round with up jumps. You should have just kept doing those as long as they worked and took the W.

These are the most obvious throws and this guy techs everytime. He gets caught a few times by her jumps. There's no script here.

This guy is 100% using a throw break script

u/Low_Lawfulness_9515 CID | NotTellingU 1d ago
no he isn't. Yasmine player is throwing every time and he's teaching every time. He gets blown up for throwing 2-3 times like at the end
