Am I the only one who uses Cammy/Yoshimitsu?
Probably. No one uses Yoshi.
Chun Li all day, she builds meter like a beast, good walk speed, pokes, decent AA, and her ideal range compliments cammy very well imo.
just my 2cents:china:
Agreed. She also gets around Sagat’s zoning like it’s no one’s business.
I’ve been running Juri/Cammy for a while now, really have a lot of fun with that team. Juri barely needs meter so she makes a good battery, and she gets all sorts of AA damage. Easy confirms into team super when needed, and easy TCs off pinwheels either as a BnB or on block for Cammy to safely come in on, and then stay in with meter for ACs if I lose my pressure, or to punish lazy fb’s.
What I’d like to find is more mixups/shenanigans/craziness that I can abuse though, as I feel they’re kind of “linear” right now, at least the way I play them.
I’m also working on Cammy/Lili (and Juri/Lili) though, as I want to improve my Lili as well. They don’t seem to do to well together but I’ve barely cracked the surface of either character.
I’m currently running Cammy/Lili and I’m having a ball. Granted, they don’t seem to compliment each other too well, but they’re great fun to use.
The main problem seems to be that neither character can get really big damage without expending meter. Lili is very meter hungry and I find myself relying on switch combos for my damage way more than any other team. Though with Lili’s launcher doing 100 damage in combos as opposed to 50, it’s not so bad.
Im definitely having a lot of fun though
Indeed, I played a couple of ranked with Cammy/Lili tonight and it was fun, though it didn’t end well lol. Juri/Lili does seem to have much better synergy.
Meter’s probably my biggest gripe. On my main team, Cammy spends all the meter as anchor. With CamLili, even if I do spend meter I feel like I’m not getting good damage from it. Note: this is also likely a case of “user error” as I’m still learning the BnBs and optimizing. ;p
I spent a lot more time in training mode just practicing basic movement with Lili again though lol, as I’ve gotten much more comfortable with Cammy and Juri’s speed lately, so Lili feels really slow by comparison. XD
Can someone help me with Ken/Cammy synergy???
Agreed. That’s one of my biggest issues as well. I keep trying to play Lili like Cammy, but the difference in speed and general design means that’s hurting me a lot more than it should. Lili is definitely no Cammy.
The more I’ve been playing her, the more she seems like a defensive character than an offensive one. She has some very powerful tools but the times I find myself being most effective with Lili are when I’m playing a more patient game. I don’t know, Lili at first feels like she should be played as rush down, but the more I get in to it the more I see that perhaps a more patient approach is the way to go.
Hmm… I see what you mean. It’s funny though, the last few days (and particularly yesterday - thank you Ryan Hunter), I’ve started to really have my eyes opened to how good she really is once she’s in.
I didn’t realize how great her f.MP is, or her frame traps in general. She does feel like she has a hard time getting in, but once she is in, she can be a bitch to get away from safely. And she has so many ways to tag… she’s been a good anchor lately for both my Juri and my Cammy. Had a lot more fun the past few days with Cam/Lil than I thought I would, I’m kinda’ torn lol.
Hoping to get some more lab time/matches in today and beef up my skills with her little by little, and start learning some tricky stuff next week (when I have time off, w00t).
Cammy/Zangief FTW!!!
So as of late, I’ve actually been working with Cammy/Law, and doing well. The only major problem I seem to run into is that they are both meter hungry, but I usually run Cams on point as a battery since she can do alright without meter, where as Law literally requires it. Nice damage though I haven’t optimized their stuff yet.
My Law is kinda free though, so I’m working on that and will keep trying different partners with Cammy (keeping in mind that Juri/Cammy is still my main team).
working on Cammy/Xiaoyu team. good synergy between the two. :tup:
One of my secondary teams is Julia/Cammy. They are two of my favorite female fighters in any fighting game so it was inevitable I team them up. Cammy is a good tag-in after Julia’s launcher or upward kick. Because of Julia’s combo-centric playstyle, she’s a good batter for Cammy. I usually do 55% of my supers with Cammy anyway.
Tried Ibuki today, here are a few resets/mix-ups…
Juggle BNB:
Ibuki starter : 623K xx TC (Cammy) > cl.HK jc j.HP > cl.MP xx Spike xx TC (Ibuki).
Cammy starter : End with Spike xx TC (Ibuki) > 2HP jc j.HK > 623K xx TC(Cammy).
Cammy starter : Launcher (into Ibuki) > cl.HK jc j.HK > 623K …
Possible to keep the juggle going between these 2 as long as there is EX bars to tag cancel.
On guard:
Cammy … xx HK SA xx TC (Ibuki) > 2MP(blockstring) xx 236K (Ibuki dashes behind if it’s HK special dash).
Cammy … xx HK SA xx TC (Ibuki) > HK jc ambiguous cross-up.
Cammy … xx HK SA xx TC (Ibuki) > 4MK xx 6MK (Overhead) > combo on hit.
Ibuki … 623K xx TC (Cammy) cl.HK jc dive/cross-up.
Ibuki (long blockstring): ABC into HP xx 3HK xx 6HK jc 623K xx TC (Cammy) cl.HK jc …
Combo Resets (or on guard):
Ibuki … ground combo xx 421LK (reset) xx TC (Cammy) > cl.HK jc Dive …
Ibuki … ABC ending with cl.HP xx TC 1st hit (Cammy) > cl.HK jc j.lk (reset).
On hit:
Cammy … xx HK SA xx TC (Ibuki) > HK jc j.HK xx 623K.
Not sure if it’s the most versatile team but they seem to have a lot of pressure mix-ups option, and both have the ability to stay in forever.
She would probably fit well as a 3rd option for the Cammy/Juri team which is more passive. Ibuki/Juri have the same combos/mix-ups btw.
So I’m playing Cammy / Juri again, but also working on Juri / Law. Still beating my head against the wall for some sort of reset with Cammy / Juri that doesn’t require a bar or doesn’t feel way too gimmicky. Nothing still.
At least the team is still very fun to play though.
Wanted to try Ibuki but it just never worked out. Something about Ibuki - and I can’t tell what - just doesn’t sit well with me for some reason play-wise (love the character, just can’t play her for -ish in 3 games straight now).
Gief/Cammy is sick, really… I just startet playing them today, but what I’ve seen from streams, they have insane synergy.
How so, out of curiosity? :-o
Well, I’m not the best at this game. But from what I’ve seen, she covers Giefs weaknesses very well. She has many options to get in, which Gief kinda lacks, especially against heavy zoners.
You can rush down with Cammy and when ou have the life lead, Gief comes in and if you play him well defensively it’s *extremely *hard to get in on him for your opponent. Also comboing from AA-Lariat or AA-Cannon Spike is nice. The have both good normals, and playing footsies with Cammy and Gief is pretty good too.
And what someone else told me today:
Ah gotcha, makes sense. She definitely can get in pretty easily, off of a good TC she can put Gief in his ideal range. And of course they both do good damage, and can both do decently without meter.
Good, scary stuff.
