Tutorial 7-14: Throw Break/Jump Attack Option Select

[CrucibleOfHate]

Is this even possible? The explanation doesn't really make sense, and 7>1j.A~1D doesn't actually seem to option select a throw break. Or a guard, for that matter. The old UNI wiki for the first game has an OS throw break strategy guide that explains the jump attack/throw break OS and the input as 1>7j.A~1A+D, which notable actually works - but this input doesn't seem to trigger a success for the tutorial. It doesn't count.

Maybe it's just a skill issue. Assuming the tutorial isn't broken, how do I do this input so that the game gives me a success and I can get 100% completion on the tutorial missions?

Idk. I tried though.

I think it might be a skill issue, because I've done it. I do remember it being a bit harder to do than in the first game though.

Okay, just tried it out myself again. Here's what you do:

It's all about inputting it correctly and timing it right. You'll actually want to be crouch blocking first to block the low, so the actual input should be 171A,D. Ideally you'll want to time this input so that you'll block the low string if that's what they do, jump back and do j.A if they Assault, and tech the throw if they throw, all at once with just that one input.

Wait until just a moment after they're right in front of you so you can block the low and not get caught standing or trying to jump. If they don't 2A, you'll jump backwards. Here you'll want to time your AD input so that you'll press A and then almost immediately afterward press D. Do it right and you should get j.A and not air Shield. If they try to throw you, it'll be right before you jump backwards, and that A,D input will cover the throw.
