Hugo performing Neck Hanging Tree on Ling Xiaoyu
Neck Hanging Tree is Hugo's regular throw in Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter X Tekken.
Descritpion
Hugo uses his size, strength, and leverage to lift his opponent by the head. He then proceeds to squeeze their head with his arms twice. He then throws them away.
Tactics
Like many grapplers, it is very important to vary the usage or command and regular throw. Using regular throws can allow players to punish or chase down tactics that would otherwise be costly. In Hugo's case he can EX Backbreak opponents jumping away or neutral jump attempts to punish a command grab.
Trivia
- This move is a more dramatic version of WWE wrestler Great Khali (who was also a tall man)'s Vice Grip, which squeezes the head of his usually smaller opponents with his two hands.
