The olden DOA's had universal jumps, and in order to make normal moves involving 7/8/9 inputs easier to execute, the developers made the first few frames of a jump cancellable by buttons, including the Hold (aka Free) button.
But this pre-jump period comes with a short Low-Strike and High-Throw crush status like a real jump!
A valid input can be:
DEMONSTRATION:
NOTES:
- all three jumps (7/8/9) share the same 13F max cancel window
- in DREAMCAST input mode, attempting to cancel a 7-jump with H will perform a High Hold. In ARCADE input mode no Hold will occur
- a BT-8-jump has a max cancel window of 7F, not enough to gain any crush property, so it doesn't work while BT
- despite having unique jumps, the same cancel windows apply to Tengu/Bankotsubo
- the D-Pad and the Analog Stick behave differently in this game, and this only works with the D-Pad
This is pretty hard and very niche tech, it would be more interesting to use in a TAS rather than a real match.
