    1. Wolf's ss+PKG... it's annoying... so what's the leet buttons to escape it?

    2. Vanessa's poor man's Pak Sao (punch counter just by standing still. similar to Jerky). Can you wriggle it to escape? or is there another way?

    3. Wolf's weird multi throw. Can you input multiple throw escapes while he's groping you? guessing 1 out of 6 is horrible.

    I read it but some of what I need wasn't there.

    1. The throw escape for Wolf's sidestep+[G][P][K] was left blank in the mainpage but I'm sure there is an escape. I remember escaping it once, twice, thrice but each of them with different inputs like [4]+[G][P], [6]+[G][P] which was totally weird.

    2. AncientBeads, I know you told me already but I just wanna clarify here, is it possible to struggle out of Vanessa's neutral counter if you're really fast?

    3. Again, can Wolf's catch sequences be multiple throw escaped? It's not funny if you have 1 guess out of 6, really.

    Sidestep PKG is escaped the same way side throws are escaped... either f+P+G or b+P+G. It's based on which side the opponent is throwing you from and whether you're on the 1P side or the 2P side. I think the gist of it is: if you're on the 1st player side and the opponent is above you, f+P+G escapes, and if they're below you, b+P+G. The opposite applies if you're on the 2P side.
    If I have this backwards, I apologize in advance, experiment and you'll find it.
    I believe the same concept applies to lion's catch throw - where he can dodge to either side and then throw you.

    2. Vanessa will let go of you after a bit, I'm not sure if you can get out faster by struggling if vanessa chooses not to do anything at all. Usually the vanessa player will do something. For you to escape that "something" this is Myke's advice (via arcadia magazine):
    - The suggested way of escaping Vanessa's arm grab is to hold G and wiggle the stick between down and neutral to guard both followup attacks (punch or low kick).

    3. I didn't have to use the search for this one cuz I wrote it, it explains wolf's catch thoroughly... the short answer is "no".

    The type of throw that results from Wolf's dodge-throw depends on his position relative to yours. And so too does the throw escape:

    - directly in front, then escape with [P]+[G]
    - on either side, then escape like a side throw (left or right+[P]+[G])
    - behind, then it's unescapable

    Just to clear up Creed's explanation for the side throw escape:

    If you're 1P and the opponent is above you, then he is on your left-hand side. 1P should escape with [4][P]+[G] since [4] corresponds to left for 1P. If opponent is below (on your right-hand side), then escape with [6].

    1. Ahh that explains a lot! Bwahahaha, now I won't be abused by that st00pid move no more!

    2. Whoa, that's a funny option select. I'm assuming that this trick also works against her mount punches and Brad's grapple, of course?

    3. Wonderful... So I guess I need to stop the initial catch to not die a horrible death. >_<;

    Thanks you two, I owe you both cookies when I drop by in texas this summer. All our progress is due to you ppl...so how big is texas ^_^;

    Escaping [P]+[G] is my main priority, especially in left hand hold, where i believe the followup guranteed combo is around 100 dmg /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

    In most cases, the situation is even. Go to the Vanessa section and read her command list. The info you ask for, and a whole lot more, is there.
