Gallon Memos
- Has numerous effective Option Select throw traps
- Wild Circular with HK can often cause close HK to come out when the opponent jumps the command throw.
- Wild circular with HK+LP can cause nun-chucks to come out if the opponent is not in throw range. This is effective because nun-chucks are air UB and punish the opponent's jump
- Character highlights from Twitter
- Advanced Okizeme options
- Advanced Punishes
- K-Throw places the opponent backwards, causing turn around frames & negating the opponents ability to perform a REVERSAL. If the K-Throw is used to complete the first bat, Gallon will be backwards & cannot complete a REVERSAL.
- Gallon is considered airborne for the entire duration of beast cannon. He cannot be thrown.
- Gallon can be thrown during startup & recovery frames of QUICK MOVE. During the middle of QUICK MOVE, Gallon is off the ground & throw invulnerable.
- Meaty st.hp can LINK into cr.lp
- KEN's blog post about quick move
- KEN's blog post about combo damage & routes
- KEN's blog posts about utilizing short-hop
- KEN's "Common Punishes" video
- KEN's blog about using K-Throw at the screen's edge & it's ability to force a cross-up (or not!)
- KEN's blog post about Gallon's crouch & walk low-profile - Opportunities to go underneath attacks
- KEN's blog post about the intricacies of Million Flicker - Each version has different properties
- While in Dark Force, the Alter-Ego (Mirage) also does chip-damage. If you guard-lock the opponent in the corner, you can get 8-attacks.
- Moment slice "confirms" are unreliable so a recent trend is to use Moment Slice as a Frame-Trap. It's relatively safe, so it's a very low-risk for a high reward. a few possible spot to place are:
- After an ES-Beast Cannon on Block (1-frame reversal window for opponent)
- After a block 6mk (Frame-Trap opportunity with an attack or a throw)
- After a long-dash as Okizeme (Great buffer window for Gallon)
- After a corner pursuit, buffer & setup a walking Moment Slice
- As the opponent wakes up, such that Moment Slice will auto-correct on turn-around frames & be a surprise left-right mixup
- The fastest short-hop attack is 14-Frames. Because an action is only possible to start on frame-10.
- Special Moves can cancel dash startup frames.
- Gallon's Dark Force causes damage reduction to the final blow of Darkness Illusion & Luminous Illusion.
- Requires Verification - This could be a bad translation
- Gallon can jump out of Lilith & Morrigan's Option-Select HP-Throws. Morrigan or Lilith has to delay the HP by 3-4 frames to beat the jump option.
- Option selects to beat Zabel's Hell-Gate
- KEN's video about using 6mk to corpse-hop & force a crossup with Moment Slice
- During the hit-stop of Dragon Cannon, some moves will continue a combo. This is unrealistic to setup in a match.
- CPU can change beast Cannon direction at an elevation lower then usual.
- ES-Beast Cannon LINK ES-Climb Razor
- Dark Force Flow Chart Example:
- Gallon can use 6MK to reliably combo into Moment Slice on wider opponents

- While in D.F., Gallon can do extended air chains into a grounded UB

- Delay Dark Force Deactivation w/ Million Flicker
- No Push-Back Bug
- Beast Cannon's downwards animation is always facing to the right (P1-Side), regardless if Gallon is player-1, player-2 or on either side of the screen. This can cause additional turn-around frames for some situations. This also determins the knock-back direction of if the attacks is hit or blocked.
- ES-Beast Cannon Sometimes it's just "Hard-to-block" Cross-Up or Unblock

- Million flicker's Variable Attack Speed
- Alter Ego Reduction applies to Gallon's Dark Force
- Dark Force x Juggle State
- Step# 01 = Gallon's Dark Force deactivates while it's in the hit-stun of Climb-Razor. Step# 02 = Re-enter Dark Force and you can do Climb-Razor combos. It's unconfirmed if Lilith or Morrigan's Dark Force starting-up animation enables this BUG on Gallon.
- Unblock ES-Guard Cancel Frames
- See The first chart here - Gallon is at frame# 07
- Felicia's DF activation/deactivation & certain moves (Dragon cannon, Please Help Me, Es-Cat Spike) can cause Gallon's mirage to hit an additional time.
- Video example shows a 3-hit combo
