Well this is my first faq that I will be doing so 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 faqs 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. Thanks
The history of Baek is little known to anyone. Baek was born in Korea
and has taught himself Taekwondo since his chilhood. When he was a teen
he bacame 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 furiouly 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. They become 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 bacome 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 opponnent 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 opponnent 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!(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 inescapeable. 50%
Parring/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--Parring-works only against punches
B+1+3, B+2+4--Parring 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-juggless U-unblockable ~-Immediately
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
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).
Well its time for me to say thank you to everyone and hopefully I can
help someone out there about Baek. I have to thank Gamefaqs for letting
me put this faq out. Namco for giving us something to not give up the
coin-up industry and putting the best fighting game out there. I like to
thank my girlfriend Erika for letting/supporting me while playing
Tekken. Also I like to thank Catlord and the tekkentagtournament.com for
having all the names of every single moves in TTT and great faqs. If
anyone emails me I promise to respond just give me some time please. Oh
and I love to hear your feedback about my Baek's faq. Thank you
IC
