0. Introduction
Well, ChickyHearn is back with a character FAQ for
Dead or Alive's Brad Wong. As most of you know Brad Wong uses
Zui Ba Xian Quan (Drunken Boxing) which is a rare style that
has the user pretend to be drunk and then suddenly attack out of
unusual stances or positions. Although not the first or most
complex of the drunken boxing fighters in game history (Shun
Di from VF4 is probably the most complete drunken boxer) Brad
Wong can easily hold his own in any fighting game. This FAQ aim
to inform you and help you with tactic at using his style and
maybe teach you alittle something of Drunken Boxing.

1. Introduction to Brad Wong
(From the game)
Nationality: Chinese
Gender: Male
Birthday: September 10
Age: 30
Blood Type: O
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 168 lbs
Body Size: B45" W31" H36"
Fighting Style: Zui Ba Xian Quan
Occupation: Bohemain
Likes: Drinking
Hobbies: Game of Go, Chinese Fiddle
One day, the old master Chen, great teacher of Zui Ba Xian
Quan, says to Brad: "Bring me the legendary drink. The name
is 'Genera'" These words are a riddle to Brad Wong, and he
begins his journey in search of the mysterious "Genra." After
three years of wandering, he finds himself in a fighting
tournament.
(From me)
Brad Wong plays as a mix up character as he has 4
different stances. Of his four stances you'll probably only
be using 3 of them. The four stances are as follows:
Standing Stance
Haisei/Backward Stance
Kokoto/Lying Stance
Dokuritsu-Ho/Leg Holding Stance
You'll be using Standing, Backward, and Lying Stance most
as they are the most flexable; the Leg Holding Stance is not
very flexable due to fact that you have limited movement (some
wouldn't even call it a stance). Brad Wong fights as an
offensive character as his counters are only average. His regular
moves should let you easily hold your own in battle. A plus to
the fact that his moves are irregular is that moves that appear
to hit high or mid will hit low driving counter characters like
Leifang or Bayman crazy. The key word to winning with Brad
Wong is pressure.
(From Dave Higaki)
One of the key tricks about using Brad is that you have to bait
and trick your opponents with his moves. For example, the
Tenshi-Chu (P, P, P) is only an ok move. But after using a few
times, your opponent will expect the 3rd strike to hit high.
Fake him out by using Tenshin-Senpu and move to Haisei (backwards
stance). While he/she tries to counter high the non-attack, press
the throw button to execute Suiho-Unshin-Haiho for some nasty
damage, especially for when you’re near a wall. Ie, Brad’s easier
to use against a live player versus a CPU player.
Another trick with Brad is that many of his moves can be staggered
to throw off counter timing. For example (again) the Zenso-Tai is
normally an easy move to counter. However, you can put a pause
between the 1st-2nd and 2nd-3rd hits to mess with your opponent.
Do it as fast as possible once or twice, then slow down the button
presses to muck around with him/her. Most of the moves you can
stagger can also be Free cancelled. So instead of pushing the
3rd K button press, stop the chain and go for a low throw.

2. Dead or Alive 3 Controls
Here a little refresher course of the Dead or
Alive 3. This covers just the basics of the game, sort
of like an instruction booklet in my FAQ.
Control Scheme
Buttons
P=Punch Y Button
K=Kick B Button
F=Free X Button
F+P=Throw A Button
Control Pad
U(u)=Jump
D(d)=Crouch
T(t)=Toward (Character facing right)
B(b)=Back (Character facing right)
QCF= Quarter Circle Forward (d/df/f)
-If a move has a "/" symbol it means you press the
direction pad in both directions in the same time.
EX: d/b= down back
-If a move has a "," symbol it means you press the
direction pad commands in that certain order.
-Lower case letters indicate that you only TAP the
button and not hold it down extendedly.
_______________________________________________________
2a. Moving
Moving consists of basic movement such as
forward and backwards, Dead or Alive 3 also uses a
side step move by double tapping Up or Down. In this
game you'll actually be using the side step move alot.
Unlike many 3-D fighters walls deal extra damage thus
making this move an important one. Also in many fighting
games jumping isn't very important, however, you can if
you want. Its just that unlike 2-D fighters, jumping
doesn't play much of a role in actual game play.
U=Jump
D=Crouch
T=Toward (Character facing right)
B=Back (Character facing right)
u,u= Upper Side Step
d,d= Lower Side Step
________________________________________________________
2b. Attacking
Of course like any fighting game attacking is
important. With Dead or Alive 3 their are only three
basic button that are needed to play the game, but because
of the Xbox controller you'll be using the extra four buttons
as "hot keys" to make game play easier.
P=Punch Y Button
K=Kick B Button
F=Free X Button
F+P=Throw A Button
Punch
////////////////////////
Basic punch attack, animation/move changes depending on which
stance you are in and input command.
Kick
////////////////////
Basic kick attack, again animation/move changes in response to
the stance you are currently in and input command.
Free
////////////////////
Allows you to have free movement, thus you are able to move
up/down on the fight stage.
Throw
////////////////////////
Throws are "unblockable" however they can be interupted by
having the other opponent use a throw or other move a moment
as soon as you begin the throw. Again throws vary according
to stance and input command.
__________________________________________________________
2c. Defense
In DOA3 defense consists of blocking and holds.
With blocking the only thing you have to do is hold the F
(Free) button and if it is a low attack press down. While
blocking you take no damage, however their are certain attacks
that are unblockable like Jahn Lee's flying kick. You can
however counter throws by inputing the throw command right in
the beginning of the opponent throw. Also often times blocking
is a combination of switching from high to low. By the way
midsection hits are considered high level and thus you do not
need to press the block button and down at the same time.
F+P= Counter Throw
F= Free/Block
___________________________________________________________
2d. Countering/Holding
The trademark of the DOA series gameplay are the
counters/holds. These are moves that allow you to intercept
another move and use one of your own moves to do damage.
Basically every move you throw is a move that can possible
back fire and damage you instead. Do perform holds all you
need to do is press the directional pad in the opposite
direction of which you are being attacked and pressing the
F (Free) button. This also takes in account where you are
being attacked. Being attacked high mean you press up/back,
if your being attacked mid level you press back, being
attacked low means down/back. Some holds require you to make
two motions but Brad Wong has none of these types of holds.
High Hold= u/b + F
Mid Hold= b + F
Low Hold= d/b + F
____________________________________________________________
3. Brad Wong Movelist
Brad Wong has quite a few moves, some more useful
than others of course. Three out of his four stances have
real potental and can be useful through out a battle.
I'll be listing the moves along with a description, move
input buttons, and tactics on useing the moves. To see
which button is which take a look at Section 2 Controls.
EXAMPLE
Name: XXXXXXXX
Command: XXXXXXXX
Description: XXXXXXXX
Tactics: XXXXXXXX
Special Notes: XXXXXXXXX
Here's the button key one last time.
Buttons
P=Punch Y Button
K=Kick B Button
F=Free X Button
F+P=Throw A Button
Control Pad
U(u)=Jump
D(d)=Crouch
T(t)=Toward (Character facing right)
B(b)=Back (Character facing right)
QCF= Quarter Circle Forward (d/df/f)
-If a move has a "/" symbol it means you press the direction
pad in both directions in the same time. EX: d/b= down back
-Lower case letters indicate that you only TAP the button and
not hold it down extendedly.
-BTW if I don't write anything in the Tactics section of each
move, it doesn't mean that the move is useless, it just that
I don't use it much, if you do I don't mind adding it if you
miss you e-mail me your tactics for particular moves.
____________________________________________________________
3a. Standing

he is most flexable during this stance. He has fairly quick
moves that hit for good damage. Also from this stance you

beginning of fights.

This stance has Brad Wong holding knee close to his
chest while one hand is above his head and the other is next to

while in this position. Also the moveset within this stance is
limited and thus I rarely specifically use this stance. All moves

*Combos sent in by Dave Higaki*
Dave's Key
U: up
D: down
B: back from opponent
F: forward to opponent
HB: hold back
HD: hold down
DB: down-back
P: Punch
K: Kick
Free: Free
Free + K: You can guess
Free + P: I hope I don’t have to tell you this one :P
Standing:
1. Tantai,Shoshi-Suiteki -> Katsumen-Tai -> Sohaku
Commands: D, K, P, P, K, F, F, P, P
Description: Brad starts off with a low off-foot kick, followed
by two high punches, another high neck kick, then slams into his
foe with his elbows before ending with a powerful push attack.
Damage: 12, 18 + Stun, 10, 24 + Stun, 11 + Stun, 19
+ Stun = 77 damage ( the highly probable wall damage will add upto
+ 20 for a max of 97 )
Stagger?: You can leave a 1/2 second pause after the initial hit,
if you need to make sure to get the first Stun hit in.
Extra Notes: A personal favorite. Fast, with a nice low to high
switch. The Sohaku ender can be replaced with Senshin-Getsuga
(F,P,P) for a quicker easier string.
2. Tenshin-Senpu -> Suiho-Unshin-Haiho
Commands: P, P, HB, Free+P
Damage: 10, 12, 0, 47 = 69 damage ( wall damage can add upto
+15 damage to this strike for a high of 84 damage )
Description: Brad performs two jabs then fakes by Switching to
his Backwards stance, ending with spinning headbutt to his
opponent's back.
Stagger?: Not much of a benefit, but the 2nd P can be staggered,
as well as the HB, but the timing window is minute.
Extra Notes: A great fakeout move. More useful against live
players, who may try countering the non-existant 3rd hit, only to
be thrown afterwards.
3. Renkan-Bokko -> Kosentai
Commands: DB, K, K, D, K, Free + P
Damage: 18, 27 + Stun, 12, 40 = 97 damage
Description: Brad leads with a quick leg sweep, followed by a mid
donkey style kick and a low donkey style kick, and ends with a leg trip.
Extra Notes: Another relatively fast combo. Nice thing here is
that it's not reliant for a wall for some nasty damage. Beware of
terrain heights performing though.
4. Renkan-Bokko -> Fukishin-Haitai -> Sohaku
Comamnds: DB, K, K, D, K, K, F, F, P, P
Description: Brad leads with a quick leg sweep, followed by a mid
donkey style kick and a low donkey style kick. Finally, he strikes
at the foe's neck while rising and performs a deadly elbow-push combo.
Damage: 18 + 27 + 12 + 14 + 11 + 19 = 101 damage (wall damage
can add upto +20)
Extra Notes: A long but rewarding combo here! As long as the
attacks are followed through in a timely manner, your opponent
shouldn't have time to react and counter anywhere in this slow,
deadly combo. An end result of combining two of my favorite
combos together.
5. Renkan-Bokko Incom. -> Koshu-Getsuga
Commands: DB, K, K, Free, P, P, P
Description: Brad starts off with a quick leg sweep and a mid
donkey-style kick, then punches the opponent twice backwards then
spins into a double wrist slam.
Damage: 18 + 27 + 5 + 6 + 16 = 72 damage (wall damage can
add upto +20 damage )
Stagger?: Don't try.
Extra Notes: A somewhat difficult combo because of the Free-Cancel.
If you're a near a wall, replace the Koshu-Getsuga with Renkan-Yokegi
(P,P,F,P,P); it's wall damage potential can have the attack deal
upto 120 damage!
From the ground:
6. Fukushin-Bokko -> Fukishin-Haitai -> Sohaku
Description: Brad moves in for a low push kick, followed by a rising
neck kick and ends with a powerful elbow-push attack combo.
Commands: Free+K, K, F, F, P, P
Damage: 24 + Stun, 14 + Stun, 11 + Stun, 19 + Stun = 68 damage
( the more than likely wall damage will add upto + 20 for a max of 88 ).
Stagger?: Don't try and don't really need to.
Extra notes: This personal favorite is great because aside from the
last hit, every attack will stun your opponent. Also, by knocking them
airborn, you can substitute different attacks in for the Sohaku, or even
use that opportunity to go for a tag combo. The Sohaku ender can be
replaced with Senshin-Getsuga (F,P,P) for a quicker, easier string for
slightly less damage.

5. Extra Stuff
Just basic extra information on costumes, quotes,
and ending.
_______________________________________________________________
5a. Costumes
Brad Wong has a total of four costumes in DOA4,
however, two of which are just color swaps. The last two
must be unlocked via DOAU or the DOA3 booster disc.
Costume 1: Brad's defalt costume, consists of a redish and
black upper section that flows into a blue/gold loin. His
pants in this costume are blueish with an Asian design. He
wears a unique necklace, arm bands, and his drinking gourd
is hanging off the back of the uniform. In this costume he
has no shoes just half wrappings on his feet.
Costume 2: Brad wears a basic martial arts gi which is white
with blue trimings, also wears a necklace, wristbands, purpleish
shoes, and his drinking gourd is again on the back. Pressing X
gives you an orange version of the gi.
Costume 3 and 4: Brad wears a basic Chinese dress with what
appears to be a dragon design on them. The only major
difference is the color of the dress, Cos. 3 is white while
Cos. 4 is purple and the color of the drinking gourds, Cos. 3
is purple and Cos. 4 is black.

Brad Wong is shown on the top of a mountain meditating
as the seasons around him are constantly changing. Then suddenly
