Why does nothing happen sometimes when I press Rage Art

[epic FUZZ]

I thought it was supposed to interrupt what was happening, or am I missing something?

And explain how I'm on the ground, press down and 3 to kick the heel and roll away, opponent goes to hit mid and I get hit. If I'm on the ground shouldn't mids miss completely?

are you trying to use it while you're being hit?

You're pressing the button while you're getting hit, and that doesn't work ever

Yes, that's why I'm trying to use it. If I wasn't being hit, I wouldn't be attempting to use it (unless I'm a safe distance while opponent is attacking)

It doesnt interrupt your opponent's combo, that would be broken, you have armor on the move though

Rage Art has a very small delay before it activates and as others said, you can't activate it while you're being hit.

Depends on the attacks to be honest. Not all mids will hit you. Some mid attack animations start from the ground-upwards like Asuka's d/f+3, this will always hit you when you move while grounded.

rage art should be used during a combo or when the enemy is about to hit you for the first time not during a combo..rage art allows you to take damage without flinching but of course not if you are already being attacked..that would be pretty cheap and lame! its not a get out of jail free card..its easily blocked and opens you pretty badly if you miss..i find Rage drives much more useful and make for amazing combos! <3

I'm aware of all that. Wasn''t completely aware of the it doesn't interrupt if you're already being hit thing when I asked. I should learn some Rage Drives
