Are people using cheats for breaking throws/grabs?
Are there even cheats for that? It's insane how some few people break my throws/grabs. I don't think that these people are pros, i'm only in the Warrior Rank, so they're not in a high rank either.. but they can break EVERY grab, no matter if i use them in a combo or really sneaky.. and i'm switching my grabs, i don't think there is any way for them to tell when i grab or which grab i'm using, most of the time..
i tried learning to break them myself, it's really really hard. I think they're cheating, or am i missing something?

I'm not good at it, but it's actually pretty good trainable to recognize and break them on time. If you know what to look out for, most throws will announce themselves quite clearly.

it's a trainable skill and they are seeable and reactable apart from a few very specific grappler characters where it can be a true 50/50 guess.

You can literally see which arm relates to the correct throw break and react to it in time. if you see both arms it's 1+2. Also it's not like a Sf throw tech breaks will happen as the throw is being performed.

Go look up PhiDX's channel on youtube he has a good tutorial on how to set up training drills for it in practise mode with Druganov.

You supposed to break most throws on reaction. When you get higher they will just duck launch you instead.

theres 2 types of throws, generic and command throws. generic throws are input with 1+3 or 2+4. these throws are broken with either a 1 or 2 input. 1+2 throws are a 1+2 break. not every character has a throw mix up. it may as well be youre using generic throws and your opponent is mashing 1 or 2.

orange rank or above, generic throws are mostly useless since people already know how to break it (it is reactable, not a script). throws are mostly used for pressure or changing side.

Most of the free cheats that break throws use the Assistance throw to do it so if every time you throw the menu pops up for a second then the answer is MAYBE. It could also be that people are exploiting the fact assistance throw breaks every 1 break throw in the game when mashed.

Easiest way to tell is watch replay with their inputs on. Consistent frame timing is usually the sign of a cheater. By consistent I mean without fail, same frames input, interrupts mashing to suddenly throw break, or input always happens on the first frame it can come out.

Example I matched against a King that I thought was just really good at blocking, it happens some people are really good. I watched the replay to see how I could open him up easier. 1 frame b followed by 1 frame db was input every frame he was idle. He was cheating but I am unclear how his character wasn't moving perhaps a turbo macro I do not know. I did beat him by breaking throws and CH's though and he rage quit at the rematch screen.

If without a doubt its a cheater report it and go on with your life.

Im sure some people are, most people get lucky or just know how to do it, but sometimes you get a match where they eat every throw for two rounds and then magically gain 2000 hours of Tekken experience and break everything single one of king's throws perfectly and thats an obvious rage activate.

Most throws you have 20f to react to. That's slow enough that an old man can do it.

Sometimes people will break a throw by accident because they were already pressing 1 or 2 for an attack.

When I see a throw if I'm not sure I press 1+2 because most people use that type of throw. If they're in the corner they're probably gonna do a sideswitch throw, so you know a 1 or 2 break is what your'e gonna have to do.

Seems impossible at first, try training mode with dummy doing a 1 break, 2 break, 1+2 break. You'd be surprised how fast you can actually get it down

You can be pretty sure, ppl using TO (not writing it out) was in T7 the same.
I mean reactable ? Kekw if your in your 100 hours ? sure sure. Then you must have trained it pretty intense. When you watch Lil_Majin playing KIng they wont break too often for the dmg it does.

If your in pressure (kekw pressure in T8 ppl dont know with all the mashing if they get pressured) its not reactable if your pretty much confortable with the opponents char, ye. But 100% ya sure theese ppl should go to offline tournaments. (pssst you will never see em there, have a guess why)
