Re: Why do non-counter strikes do so little?

This happens with punches as well. Unless you land a counter punch you're basically whacking them with a nerf football.

TL;DR non vulnerability state strikes do nothing

I understand that not every roundhouse kick to the head is a knockout, but it shouldn't blatantly be doing almost nothing as well. I get rocked by him throwing a hook while i jab, but I land a flush head kick while his hands are down and he literally taunts me after. it happens over and over.
For me personally round house head kicks have been very effective. Check the replays and make sure they are not glancing blows off of the shoulder. Not saying your wrong, just I haven't personally found this to be the case
