Pull/Push takedown?

[Zonkybro]

Can anyone help me? I love the push/pull them to the ground and hit them while lying there move, but I only knock them over once or twice out of maybe 10 times. I usually just pull theminto me and more often than not they are in the middle of a swing. This is getting embarrassing . Anyone know a reliable way to knock them over?

Please no flames about this being cheap/lame.

When you pull make sure you are straffing left or right and the person will fly by you.

 

Gotta be careful with those DFA ers though

Remeber to try to push or pull whne they commit to an attack as well. Push will not work if he is just standing there. I also try to set myself up in a good postion to push as well. If there is a wall I try to place my opponent between me and the wall so I know where he is going to stop. And one last tip..if you pull..strafe..like Raith said then quickly come around and hit. Stance is also important. Red is slower so you may not get the swing off in time. Yellow (medium) is also iffy to depending on how far you pushed him. I'm not saying always use fast but take your range into consideration.

You have to get them right as they start whatever action they are going to perform. If you miss it then they wont fall down. also strafe to left or right and then get them after they fly by.

If someone is attacking or moving/jumping, it makes them more susceptible to the effects of a push or pull. If they are standing still, push/pull has virtually no effect.

 

Pushing people into walls is a very effective method. On the other side, pulling people INTO you is also effective, because often when they collide into you they'll fall. Just make sure you don't get skewered.
