I choose my R2 after I choose a team, what I’m looking for in a R2 is 1. can take sagat 2. doesn’t get horrendously raped by other common R2s 3. can turtle or attack, depending on what’s needed
cammy would fail at least the first 2, I’ve never seen a turtling cammy before but I’m sure she could do it, unable to answer sagat, no answer vs A-blanka (like most people in K), that’s all I need to know, 98% of the time, unless you put her first, she’s gonna get wasted, and I don’t recall 2/1/1 team order 98% of the time being a good strategy anywhere…nope, so I really don’t see how K-cammy would constitute as being able to take other teams, unless you’re heavily reliant on your R1s, in which case you may as well make them R2 if you’re gonna be so reliant on them
I mean, cmon, I’m crazy enough to use R2 C-Rugal, I still wouldn’t play R2 K-cammy, at least neither sagat nor blanka can completely shut out rugal (and puts him away from A-saks, C-chuns, hibikis, and K-cammys usually, minimizing his chances for nigh helpless matchups), although he’s usually the lowest tiered guy on my team, putting him R2 grants me the best overall efficiency allowing me to handle the most teams with the best relative advantage
you know, as opposed to going into every match knowing unless your R1s really give cammy a huge head start on sagat, you’re gonna have tons of fun being locked down all day
so yeah, please explain how R2 K-cammy means can take other teams when 9 of 10 times it’s the R2s that decide the match, when she’s at a 2-8 (I’m being generous) disadvantage 90% of the time?
really, choosing a R2 isn’t rocket science, but it’s a little more tactical than pick the highest tier in your team, she’s not even flexible ffs, she’s the most 1-dimensional character in this game, I can’t even think of a high tier that hasn’t devised a way to deal with her
