-1 (+5)

Notes 8-15f Low Crush (feet are strike invincible); puts airborne opponents into limited juggle state; Punish Counter launches opponent high into a limited juggle state; can be spaced for significantly better advantage; extends a hurtbox 1f before active that is vulnerable to projectiles; first 2 active frames have shorter range (makes it easier to space properly); causes camera shake effect on block when connecting with final active frame (easier to tell when Luke has advantage)

Notes Whiffs on crouching opponents at farther ranges unless they extend a vertical hurtbox; puts airborne opponents into spinning limited juggle state; no head hurtbox during active frames, making it a useful anti-air; after DR~4HK on block, Luke is at the edge of throw range and can also threaten with 2LK~2LP to punish walk back, or 2LP to beat reversal 4f normals; extends a hurtbox 1f before active that is vulnerable to projectiles

47(15)

Notes 5f gap on block between hits; causes a staggered tailspin when performed after Punish Counter 6HP (allows a cancel into fully charged Flash Knuckle of any strength or a +28 DR Cancel); this Punish Counter version forces stand and does not incur any extra damage scaling

Notes Puts airborne opponents into limited juggle state; has some juggle potential; can significantly delay the cancel into j.214P, allowing unique combos after pf.214[LP]; lower body projectile invuln 9-22f (cannot be used to avoid the 2nd hit of JP's OD Amnesia bombs)

Notes Cross-up

Notes Cross-up; lower body projectile invuln 7-20f except around attack hitbox (cannot be used to avoid the 2nd hit of JP's OD Amnesia bombs)

Notes Better horizontal range than j.HP for long-range jumps; lower body projectile invuln 10-19f except around attack hitbox, and 10-24f for lowest part of foot hurtbox (cannot be used to avoid the 2nd hit of JP's OD Amnesia bombs)

Notes Can be input during forward/neutral jump (or back jump when canceled from j.MP); the final 12 recovery frames are in a crouching state; puts the opponent into a limited juggle state (can follow-up with 623LP if opponent is juggled at max height)

Notes Can be input during forward/neutral jump (or back jump when canceled from j.MP); 7f extra landing recovery on whiff if input during the first 32 jump frames; Luke is in a crouching state from 4th landing recovery frame onward; improved frame advantage when done lower to the ground, and spaced out at farther ranges; can only be up to -1 on block if not precisely spaced; can partially charge the attack and release early for better juggle advantage after 214[LP]

Notes Can be input during forward/neutral jump (or back jump when canceled from j.MP); the final 12 recovery frames are in a crouching state; puts the opponent into a limited juggle state; kara-canceling the startup with j.214P~PP can affect Luke's trajectory and frame advantage

8 SA / 16 follow-up

Notes 2-hit OD projectile, full screen length; puts opponent into limited juggle state; can follow up with PP for 1 extra Drive bar; extends a projectile invuln hurtbox on frames 19-36 (more vulnerable to ranged jumps and anti-projectile moves)

Notes 1-hit OD projectile; costs 1 extra Drive bar; () refers to scaled damage after 236PP connects; causes a wallsplat on hit (can combo near the corner, or whiff 236K~P to safely gain ground); extends a projectile invuln hurtbox on frames 10-32 (more vulnerable to ranged jumps and anti-projectile moves)

Notes Reduced damage and higher juggle start/increase/limit on active frames 2-10; cannot hit cross-up; does not juggle into SA3 despite being cancelable

Notes Reduced damage and higher juggle start/increase/limit on active frames 3-10; cannot hit cross-up; does not juggle into SA3 despite being cancelable; much higher juggle limit than other versions of Rising Uppercut (useful in corner juggles)

Notes Reduced damage and higher juggle start/increase/limit on active frames 3-10; cannot hit cross-up; does not juggle into SA3 despite being cancelable

Notes Reduced damage 3rd active frame of 1st hit (will only do 1 hit for 600 damage on later active frames); cannot hit cross-up; can cancel into PP follow-up on hit for 1 Drive bar; 2nd hit whiffs vs. crouch block (reduced chip damage, worse advantage)

Notes Follow-up on hit only for 1 additional Drive bar; can whiff against high juggled opponent; counts as a separate hit for damage scaling

Hit Confirm

19

Notes Puts opponent into limited juggle state (can only juggle into canceled SA3); worse KD advantage vs. airborne opponents (+31 when juggled after 5LP~MP~HP); can cancel into SA3 on reaction if opponent attempts a Drive Impact; pulls back hurtbox on frames 5-15

Hit Confirm

Hit Confirm

19

Notes Puts opponent into limited juggle state; no head hurtbox on frames 6-17 for improved anti-air; the final 2 recovery frames are cancelable on Hit into specials/Supers (enables a corner juggle into 623LP or SA2)

Notes Puts opponent into limited juggle state; active frames 3-4 can nullify normal 1-hit projectiles; canceling to SA3 will cause juggle to whiff; 1f more recovery on hit/block; no head hurtbox on frames 6-29 for improved anti-air

Notes Hold LP 18-20f for perfect version; launches opponent high into a limited juggle state; active frames 3-4 can nullify normal 1-hit projectiles; canceling to SA3 will cause juggle to whiff; 1f more recovery on hit/block; no head hurtbox on frames 6-29 for improved anti-air

Hit Confirm

14 (1st) / 47 (2nd)

Notes Puts opponent into limited juggle state; active frames 3-4 can nullify normal 1-hit projectiles; listed recovery is for blocked/whiffed version (on hit, automatically transitions to 2nd hit); 1st hit is cancelable into PP follow-up for 1 extra Drive bar on hit only; can juggle directly into any Super (canceling into Super will cause SA3 to whiff; SA2 will whiff on final cancelable frame)

Notes Costs 1 extra Drive bar on 214PP 1st hit only (cannot activate on block or when armor absorbed); leaves Luke close enough to walk in for a strike/throw mixup; counts as a separate hit from 214PP for damage scaling; in juggles, only connects on opponents low to the ground and will not come out if opponent is juggled higher

Notes Costs 1 extra Drive bar on 214PP 1st hit only (cannot activate on block or when armor absorbed); leaves Luke close enough to walk in for a strike/throw mixup; counts as a separate hit from 214PP for damage scaling; in juggles, only connects on opponents low to the ground and will not come out if opponent is juggled higher

Notes Can be input during forward/neutral jump (or back jump when canceled from j.MP); 7f extra landing recovery on whiff if input during the first 32 jump frames; Luke is in a crouching state from 4th landing recovery frame onward; improved frame advantage when done lower to the ground, and spaced out at farther ranges; can only be up to -1 on block if not precisely spaced; can partially charge the attack and release early for better juggle advantage after 214[LP]

Notes Can be input during forward/neutral jump (or back jump when canceled from j.MP); the final 12 recovery frames are in a crouching state; puts the opponent into a limited juggle state (can follow-up with 623LP if opponent is juggled at max height)

Notes 5 hit Super projectile, first 4 hits travel 65% screen, final hit goes fullscreen; higher KD Adv. when farther from wall; extends a projectile-vulnerable hurtbox during startup frames 2-5 (more difficult to use as an anti-fireball tool)

Notes Extremely fast super that works well in juggles; in the corner, gives Luke an auto-timed strike/throw mixup; on hit, the animation is not invincible until the very end (can be hit by delayed projectiles like Kimberly Spraycan or JP Amnesia orbs); Full Dmg distribution: 300x3,200x6,700

Notes Luke runs forward; active frames occur upon reaching the opponent or on frame 27 (whichever occurs first) but invincibility is not extended when far from opponent; has juggle potential; on block, bounces away with a fixed recovery period (whiff recovery is 26f slower); cinematic time regenerates ~2 Drive bars for Luke; takes opponent to Memphis
