BAEK DOO SAN ------------ Written by IC December 26, 2000--12/26/00 Tekken Tag Tournament is a copyright of Namco 1999, 2000. Version 1.2 Email:ic35@hotmail.com URL: http//home.dencity.com/riskbreaker Update: Not much but I just needed to spellcheck and fix Baeks BIO. Again if I wrote something wrong or miss something let me know by emailing me. It seems that I see a lot of people that want to know how to master Baek and his infamous Taekwondo. Personally I use to love Baek in Tekken 2 as he kick butt with his combos. Although Hwaorang is in part 3, you notice the differences. Most of everyone seeing this FAQ will see Baek's basic moves as seen on other FAQ's and most Baek's fanatics will already know the moves and combos, but I'll try to add all the technical stuff that I possibly know and help Baek's beginners. In conclusion please don't sell this FAQ or copy to another FAQ because this is meant to be on the net and it took me hours to do this(yes you can print it). All written aspects are copyright to IC aka "Riskbreaker". Thanks I. Bio II. Baek's Techniques -Throws -Parrying -Arts -Flamingo Stance -Juggles -Against all odds(coming soon) III. His Apprentice Hwaorang IV. Thank you ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I. Bio. The history of Baek is little known to anyone. Baek was born in Korea and has taught himself Taekwondo since his childhood. When he was a teen he became friends with the Law family from China and he offer to train the son (Marshall Law) with Taekwondo. They really became close. The years went by and Marshall wanted to learn Jeet Kun Doo and realize that was his art. He then made a Dojo to train others. All forgotten was Baek and furiously thought he didn't care about the mastery of Taekwondo. So furious and forgetting his friendship, Baek went to the Dojo while Law was out and brutally defeated all of Marshall Laws' students and tore down the place. Beak was then manipulated by the Mishima family as he started to work with their corruption business and forgetting about his students and old life. Baek and Marshall became rivals throughout the Second Tournament of the King of the Iron Fist. They finally met at the Tournament. No one won this fight as both beaten to death by each other. They shook hands at the end and Beak realize that he had no right to make someone's choice as he holds a pendant of himself and young Law. All grudges were settle as Baek became more positive with himself and decided to train Hwaorang as Marshall train his son Forrest to go to the Third Tournament. (Hopefully I got his story right, anyone give me a e-mail if I need to fix/add it) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ II. Basics Well on we go with the basics. I will specified his throws, I will show you from left to right: moves, name of move, positions(low, medium, high), and hit/percentage. here we go: Throws: Front 1+3---Hammer Throw - Baek grabs the opponent on his/her waist and drops down to hit on the side to the head. This does 30% damage 2+4---Blue Shark- Baek grabs the opponent on his/her waist and drops backward for a flip to the head and back. This does 30% damage d/b+1+3---Swordfish- This throw is like a Judo side throw. This does 35% damage f+2+3,(5)---Cannonball- This is one of the new techniques coming out of the pages of Hwaorang but can be a tag throw also. 30% damage, tag-able with Hwaorang only, 40% f,f+2---Roll and choke- Baek grabs opponent by the neck, monkeyflips him/her and then crack to the neck(you get the picture). 30% damage Side 1+3,2+4,2+5,(5)---Left-Snake's Revenge-This one is pretty cool. Baek grabs opponents arms and lift to a side kick. 40% damage, tag-able 1+3,2+4,2+5---Right-Hunting Serpent- Another cool one. Grabs opponent arm and double kicks him/her to the head. 40% damage Back 1+3,2+4,2+5---Reverse throw(with your back to the opponent)- My least favorite throw from Baek. a reverse Judo throw. But hold on, this throw differs hit % depending the part on where you catch the opponent. 1+3,2+4,2+5---Starfish throw(close to opponents back side)- This is better as this move is inescapable. 50% damage. Parrying/Blocking: Although Baek has no reversal he does have parries which can result into reversals: d/f-----------Low parry b+1+3, b+2+4--Parrying-works only against punches B+1+3, B+2+4--Parrying Flamingo-works only against punches, turns into Flamingo Taekwondo Arts: I will show you from left to right: moves, name of move, positions(low, medium, high), and hit/percentage. *(new moves) W/A-while standing J-juggles U-unblockable ~-Immediately Move Names Position Hit % --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1,2(starter)---------left, right punch-----HH----------5,10 * 3,3,3,4_(d+4)------Butterfly-------------HHMH(L)----15,12,12,15_10 * 3,3,4,4,3,(f)------Black Widow-----------HHHMM------15,12,18,10 * 3,4,3(5)-----------Wing Blade(J)---------HLM--------15,8,25 * 3,3,4,4,4,3--------Silver Mantis(J)------HHHMHH-----15,12,15,18,15,15 * 3~f----------------Flamingo--------------N/A--------N/A *SS+1----------------Hammer chop-----------M----------8 *b+1-----------------Stealth Needle--------M----------17 *b+2-----------------Bolt Cutter-----------H----------15 *u/f+2---------------Bone Stinger----------H----------22 3,3,3,4_(d+4)--------Butterfly ------------HHMH(L)----15,12,12,15_10 3,3,4,4,3(f)---------Black Widow-----------HHHMM------15,12,15,18,10 3,3,4,4,4,3----------Silver Mantis---------HHHMHH-----15,12,15,18,15,15 3,4,3(5)-------------Wing Blade(J)---------HLM--------15,8,25 f,f,F+3--------------Killing Blade---------M----------30 f,N,d,D/F+3(5)-------Wind Blade(J)---------M----------25 u/f,3,4,3------------Hunting Hawk----------MMH--------15,8,25 u/f,N,3,3,3,4_(d+4)--Butterfly-------------HHMH(L)----15,12,12,15_10 u/f,N,3,3,4,4,3,(f)--Black Widow-----------HHHMM------15,12,15,18,10 u/f,N,3,4------------Hopping Double Kick---HH---------25,20 u/f,N,3,d+4,3(5)-----Wing Blade(J)---------HLM--------15,8,25 (J) D+3,3,3(5)_(d+3)-----Snake Kicks(J)--------LLM(L)-----12,7,15(7) b,3------------------Flamingo--------------N/A--------N/A W/S+3,3,4------------Double High Kicks-----HML--------12,10,10 W/S+3,4,4,3,(f)_3----Eliminator------------HHMM_H-----12,15,18,10_15 F+4,3(f)-------------Heel Drop-Mid(stuns)--MM---------22,10 W/S_F+4,4,3----------Triple Threat---------MMH--------30,15,15 f,F+4----------------Hammer Heel-----------M----------15 W/S_d/f+4,4,(4),3(f)-Albatross-------------MMM--------15,25,10 d+4,3,3,3(f)_(d+3)---Baek's Rush-----------LMMM-------10,10,15,25_15 * b/d+4--------------Heel Axe--------------M----------17 * b+4----------------Heel Lance------------M----------14 * 3+4(f)-------------Lightning Haldberg----HH---------12,12 d/b+3+4--------------Dynamite Heel---------U----------40 f,F----------------to Flamingo-----------N/A--------N/A Flamingo Stance: The Flamingo stance is a great advantage because you can sidestep, backstep, and go forward and trick your opponent. You can do combos like Eliminator, Albatross, Hurricane, High Low Kick, Head Crusher(b,b,3) and Pick Hurricane(d_d/f_b/d+3). 10-Hit: I will get back on the position and hit % to you next time(sorry). 4,3,3,4,3,3,3,4,3,4 (last hit Unblockable, but can be reverse) 4,3,4,3,3,3,3,3,4,3 (last hit juggles, if hit of course) Juggles: This is in construction but here is what I know so far. Starters: d+3,3,3(if last hits) 3,4,3 d/f+2 (1)d+3,3,3 1,2,3~f,1,2,3~f 3,3,3,4 1,d+2,4,4 b+4,1,2,3~f,3+4 f,N,d,D/F+3 d/f+3+4 u/f+3,4,3 (1),d+3,3,3 3,3,3,4 1,1,2,3~f,b+4,3+4 Against all odds: (comind soon) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ III. His Apprentice Hwaorang: As you are aware you know you can tag/pick anyone in TTT but the best choice has to be his student, Hwaorang. Because they both know Taekwondo? No, because they have more combos and moves together. As the Cannonball(f+2+3~5) is an awesome tag throw that they both do, you can also do the Snake's Revenge(left throw~5) and do the Dynamite Heel with Hwaorang!! (massive %) or any heel for that matter. Other moves you can try that works well for both is the Wind Blade (Hwaorang is f,d,N,D/F +4) and then tag to do great juggles. The only disadvantage I say is their lack of punches, luckily Baek has some new punches and parries. There are other exclusive moves that they have so play with them (also if your good with Hwaorang that helps). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IV.
