Never drop the blue stuff with Novriltataki’s Tekken 7 Windup Uppercut tutorial

Though officially listed as the “Windup Uppercut” in the Tekken 7 command list, the just-frame version of Jack-7’s combo filling uppercut is generally (and amusingly) referred to as the Electric Mecha God Fist (or EMGF) in the Tekken community. While not at all critical to the robot’s neutral play (EMGF’s just-frame blue spark is purely cosmetic and changes nothing about its frame data), it is the highest damage Jack can get in select situations.
