Vagina Tax is still a thing, and Cammy has her token. Iā€™m estimating her health at 900, based on the following combo:

Ryuā€™s j.HK, st.MP, cr.FP xx VTrigger, cr.MK xx Hadoken xx CA

This combo does 448 damage, and shows as just about 50% damage on her. More datapoints are obviously needed, so hit her with the beefy stuff in training and letā€™s see how clos this estimate is.

@d3v did u play anyone that remotely knew wat they were doing lol

Or was it so laggy u couldnā€™t do anything. That seems 2 be happening a lot lately

I just want to test something with Cammy, and found a few nerfs oh WoWā€¦

hk doesnā€™t hit crouch opponent, the hitbox is nerf?
lp, mp version hooligan jump arc are very high. Some setups no longer work.
I feel ex cannon strike has more high restriction. Canā€™t use when jumping back. Not sure was it like this on 2nd beta
cr.hp no longer a crush counter

Iā€™m having troubles keeping pressure on their wake up. What frame traps are you using? At the moment I find myself just using meaties and in one second theyā€™re out of range. No real mixup, just block.

And how are you using divekicks?

There arent many frametraps in this game. Pretty much meaty r ur best bet stMp, fHK are gd options but yes after about a second ur advantage is gone. The thing bout meatys tho is u have 2 time them well. I have seen f HK get stuffed by wake up jabs if not timed correctly

Iā€™m still yet 2 find divekicks useful. After a lk dive it seems Iā€™m still at a disadvantage. It may be a case of online or maybe Iā€™m doing it at the wrong height tho

F.hk is being a huge disappointment for me. I thought it was at least airborne but you can be thrown out of it as well. Iā€™m actually finding it useless at the moment since Iā€™m only using it for meaties and st/cr.mp leaves me closer and with better frame advantage on block.

And what the hell is wrong with capcom and footsies?

Being -2 close to your opponent is really really bad. No wonder poongko was mashing DP after it, at least the opponent has to respect you instead of you dealing with their throw/frametrap guess.

I donā€™t think he did.
I played LiangHubb more then 5x and he was jumping around like a rabbit and didnā€™t even tried to use grounded normals.
Wakeup?jump
The opponent is fullscreen away?jump
Crossup failed?jump
You getting 10x in a row anti-airt? jump

So far only 2 Nashs from England played somewhat solid and didnā€™t try to jump around like crazy.
This Beta is a disappointment for me, Cammys Buffs arenā€™t in this build and everyone is jumping around like french frogs.
This is actually worse than SFIV, when it comes to the level of play.

Oh thatā€™s interesting, has her Cr. RH always been a crush counter? I donā€™t remember using it very often during the last two betas, so Iā€™m likely just be behind on that detailā€¦

Every sweep is a CC now.

How the hell do you punish Vega?

f. RH if you space it leaves you outside throw range so -2 isnā€™t that bad. It also is super easy to meaty & OSā€™s different tech options. I just really miss it blowing up lows. It doesnā€™t have as much of a purpose in footsies right now other then near the corner because you can go in with the first hit active and if they try to poke you out they get caught counter hit. Midscreen in doesnā€™t move forward enough to catch people walking back most of the time.

Best way to open up with cammy seems to just be with walk speed and baiting stuff. Her cr. MP and st. MP are really solid. You can frame trap with st. MP still (at least it seemed like it). You canā€™t stay in though, just get 1 frame trap or maybe 1 staggered string. I liked doing cr. jab x 2 (confirm) st. MP -> cr. MK (confirm)

You can cancel the st. MP into hooligan if you want to get creative or you can stagger step back cr. MP instead of st. MP. There are options. honestly dash->throw is something I feel you have to do some times. Once you get the stagger or the expectation it is good. Also cr. MP counter sets up cr. MK which Iā€™ve found REALLY useful.

After a spiral arrow in the corner FP hooligan is pretty solid and the hooligan dive seemed to have better properties than the raw one but that could have just been my imagination. FP Hooligan dive baited divekicks in the corner, just have to be careful to not cross into the corner with it.


Vega rolls are only -4 so st. jab is probably your best option.

Yeah but spaced you canā€™t combo after because cr.mp doesnā€™t reach.

Forget this post I completely misread ciphers post my bad

Too many people pressing buttons against f.hk, once they figure out to punish it though, Iā€™m dead.

I will not forgive you!!!

What did you wrote? =)

Could we combo stmp into sweep before? Huh, I wonder if it will prove useful.

Iā€™m really having trouble pressuring the opponent in this game with Cammy. Two blocked hits and youā€™re back on neutral and you donā€™t really have confirmable frame trap.

Played around a little bit with Ryu, Nash and Vega too - they all feel like they have more options than she does.

Yeah, Iā€™m having some trouble with Cammy too. I canā€™t figure out how to use her divekick for mixups, and in this game her walk-up pressure strings seem greatly diminished.

The last beta I played Karin and Vega, and it seemed they had good normals, but also relatively safe specials. This game seems to be more based on 50/50s and hard reads than always confirming into full combos. Thatā€™s fine, but it means that a blocked Cammy combo ending in a special will lead to a full damage punish, while a blocked Karin/Vega/Rashid combo could lead to more pressure from Karin/Vega/Rashid.

Cammy has no Problems.
The problem is how everyone plays right now.

The best players I meet just jump back the whole time and throw fireballs with Ryu, nobody stops jumping. As for Lauras they never stop pressing Buttons.Everyone is either mashing jabs,DPā€™s or jumps.

I actually want to play SFIV and I hate SFIV.
