Played with it today. Orbs and shoulder nerf is suck.
First opponent was that Japanese dude with the dinosaur. LOL.
It went back and forth, with him with the edge. They were also the first matches that I felt lag in. Against Stryfen and Janks everything felt as well as offline, but hit confirms, punishes, and combos were very off(guess the distance) as I got used to it, I was doing much better. I like his fighting style, he still rolled with the shoulder, and was very effective with it, but of course the nerf meant no long combos.
Been messing around and found some weird glitch. Using Headbutt xx Combo Maker will sometimes cause me to slide to the other side of an opponent. Could TK A.Fireball become easier to perform, I mainly get a whiffed kick when I try to combo with it. Iāve been able to juggle HP several times with Dash xx LP xx HP then Super Canceling. Combo Maker, Invincible, Pounce Ground Stomp, and Meteor Super work well with keeping the juggle going for big damage. Been able to get 85%.
EDIT: Flying Kick whiffs on HP Juggles. Maybe Im timing it wrong?
Well been in the lab with that new move āRising Kicksā. Learned it can be performed in the air and could be cancelled from any air normal. It pretty much solves air combos since it whiffs the first few kicks after performed after HK and hits during the last. Rolling Kick after brings it above or close to 20%. Paired with Ground Stomp you could follow up with HP and RsK. To keep it goin Rollin Kick twice (LK, HK) and itāll be close to 39%. Overall RsK drop juggles and has tons of combo setups. Also found out that Ground Stomp works even if the person is starting to standup.
Damage on some moves doesnāt change, LK Rolling Kick and HK have the same damage for an example.
EDIT: TK RsK (Rising Kicks) causes a pseudo - super jump, great for escaping pressure and projectiles.
FaceMeAndBeBroken > me. I need to work on my TK Air Fireballs online. Crazy how good Cyndi is. I never played as her before tonight and I think I won more games with her all night than with all other characters combinedā¦keep in mind, thatās like 7 games out of 50, but hey.
Iām down to play sets with people in this game anytime feel free to send an invite.
Kinda sad that post-patch this is no longer the manliest fighting game ever, but itās still fun. Iām still undefeated so come show me how this game is played.
^^ Definitely not just you. I can be in training for an hour, leaving to check for XBL matches every 5-10 minutes and not get a match all night. There really needs to be a matching service while in training mode.
About a week ago when I started playing, I seemed to be finding matches easier, but I havent played online at all in a few days.
Donāt forget to post with your Gamertag in there. I might know it, but others donāt. Also, Iām an old man and my old-man-memory is going, so it helps having it all in the one thread.
Haha a tourney! How awesome Unfortunately I will be out of town this weekend, so Iām gonna miss out.
Hereās something you can try though, go to options: press LB + RB, then BACK + X + Yā¦ then you can create a lobby match. Not sure how good it runs, tried a few times, and it seems ok although sometimes it will drop people.
