CvS2 Tech-Throw Reversal Glitch (07.31.02)
Kim-Hahn "ohayo1234" Hoang and Peter "Mouko" Nguyen
(originally posted on xerocrew.com)

Hello True believers! CvS2 is known for its crazy hot tactics (fierce, low fierce, ducking fierce, roll into fierce), but now with the Throw Reversal glitch you may be able to create many different funky effects that may be considered.... GAME-BREAKING. (ha ha ha....)

In order to do these glitches you will need the assistance of a friend, with the exception of Raiden. (Raiden’s glitch does not require an opponent to do a reversal, but just to tech the throw.)


1. First, throw your opponent.
2. Opponent escapes the throw (by throwing aka teching the throw).
3. Both players do a reversal special or super (i.e. fireball, roll, custom activation). Make sure the words ‘reversal’ pop up on both the 1p and 2p sides.

For those of you that don’t know: A reversal is a move performed at the earliest possible moment after leaving blockstun, while waking up, or in the case of CvS2, after a throw escape. While it’s possible to do anything with reversal timing, only special moves, supers, rolls, taunts, and custom activations will get you the ‘reversal’ message on the screen.

Not every super or special combination creates weird effects. Some lock up the game, while some others may have temporary effects. However, if you do the glitch incorrectly one or more of the following will happen:

- You will lose your entire super meter, without a super ever being done.
- The sound of the super or special will come out, but the move will not come out.
- Some characters have their own default thing if you don’t do the glitch correctly. Raiden will instantly switch sides with his opponent, while many others will suck you back in from the tech throw, resulting in no bounce back at all (i.e. Yamazaki).

One thing we here at xerocrew have found out is, when you escape a throw and both players do a reversal, the players are both invincible for a very short period of time. So, in the exhibition you will see a lvl3 fireball going through a Taunt without a Roll Cancel.

Some sample glitches are..


- Kim (lvl 3 qcb,hcf, kick) vs Akuma (lvl 3 raging demon) ........
(after a brief breakdancing competition, the two characters perform a strange teleport)
- Yamazaki (lvl 3 qcf x 2, punch) vs Dhalsim (teleport) ....
(Dhalsim becomes invisible)
- Rolento (lvl3 qcf x 2, kick) vs Yamazaki (lvl 3 qcf x 2, punch) ......
(HELLA knives fall down, with Yama being unable to block them)
- Zangief (lvl3 qcf x 2, kick) vs Rugal (hcb, punch) .....
(Zangief appears to abduct Rugal and flies off into the sky, locking up the game)

Have fun with these car ray zee glitches! If there are any questions please post in the forum at our site. Thanks and happy gaming yes!?!?!?!?
