I watched it without trying to think about your attitude, as a new Cammy player. Well, the verdict is: easy-mode play. You didn’t do ONE link. Not even the attaiable 2-frame one from C HP to C MK. When your jabs/shorts hitted you just mashed them out and went into offense again, instead of linking a special. This is average at best, even I do better after one minth of Cammy play.
Kudos for your good execution on the FADC combos, but really, that’s basic training stuff anyone can do. Get your links in so that you can finish attacks on hitconfirm.
And is a sweep the best Ryu can do after blocking spike? I guess it’s a good knockdown, but he ever followed through on it well.
Who gives a shit if i didnt link or not? are you serious?? please dont make me laugh. There was absolutely no need for me to go all out on that Ryu. Do you even know how i normally play??? no you dont, then stop talking so much shit a bout my gameplay being “Average”, wich is not the case. Alexanima is way better than that, if not ask the rest of the players in the cammy forum that have challenged me.
If you can’t take criticism, then don’t make a video and put it on the internet.
If you are as great as you say you are, you should have destroyed that Ryu imo. Uploading sandbagged matches and asking for our opinions is like requesting the entire forum to punish a whiffed Shoryu as hard as they can. Some people will throw, others will combo the shit out of you.
In case you didn’t get my point; don’t upload shitty videos and we won’t think you’re a shitty Cammy player. Welcome to the internet.
If you have meter to burn and Ultras to use, the best punish is walk up, Low Forward into EX Fireball FADC with a forward Dash into Ultra. I’ve done that to OTHER Cammy’s I’ve played.
Otherwise, I think low Forward into EX Fireball or Low Forward into Roundhouse Hurricane Kick is the best punishment. You have to be totally ready for it as Ryu to react quickly enough (basically be holding Towards on the stick before your Block Stun ends), but Cammy lands with a LOT more delay than most people think. I get away with a LOT of blocked Cannon Spikes because Ryu players just walk up and sweep me. I know they can do a lot worse to me.
god i wish we could i would but james would get mad
oh yea james a blocked CS is trouble your oppent has a lot of time to thing about what he wants to do. Most of the ryus i play do the sweep for safety reasons. But solshido will catch me with a quick focus that double forward punch thingy. cr.HEavy shoryuken haha.
hey guys so i recorded some matches vs Ken… please feel free to critique… im trying to improve… working on my footsie and pokes… my execution wasnt good that night… (i dont know what went wrong… guess i was feeling sleepy!) …
just to be fair to the ken player… he just switched recently to ken used to play Gouken… so he’s not familiar with his combos and setups yet… but still gave me a hard time…
cool stuff:
standing HP Vs Crossup
lk Cannon Strike Vs HP Shoryuken (and Mp i guess) …lk CS wins… aim for the head! :hitit:
someone around here advised to tech throw versus ken… so i’ve been abusing the hell out of it…
Your execution looked pretty good to me! You seemed to have her bnb combos down! Random thoughts as I watched:
[LIST]
[]Really good use of cross-up cannon strike (normal and ex)!
[]Empty cross-over jump into spiral arrow after a back throw at 1:20, cool! (part 1)
[]Was that reset off the focus attack into throw at 6:20 (part 1) intentional? pretty slick!
[]Ex-strike 2 into ultra off the focus, I think you would do more damage going straight into ultra.
[]Punish hurricane kick (Ryu or Ken) with crouch HP as they come towards you or move away.
[]cr.lk into throw worked well!
[]I like how you vary what you do after a dash cross-under after say a jump hk connects.
[]You use forward throw a lot, you could use the back throw to set-up the cannon strike cross-up/mix-up game a little more.
[]At about 0:36 into the second vid you could probably have done an ultra through his fireballs or ex-hooligan as he was just throwing them out one after the other
[*]That Ken really liked to mash out the hp shoryuken
[/LIST]
Olympian,
You had some cool mixups. I liked that Focus attack, jump over, low short, throw thing you did. When I saw it I thought the ken was going to mash SRK for sure haha.
There was 1 thing I saw that I would suggest you do. Cannon Spike more. The Ken did a lot of random tatsu and quite a bit of jumping. I know the standing fierce works pretty well as an anti air, but I firmly believe Cspike is the best anti air Cammy has. Heck if you can get a super late Spiral Arrow to be an anti air counter that would be even better.
ooooo actually let me talk about the anti-air arrow for a bit. If you do lk arrow, you hit them out of the air, but it’s not a knockdown. You also land right in front of him. Most people think it’s a knock down, but it isn’t at least what I remember. If you do mk arrow, same thing; BUT you land behind them, free crossup. I’m going to make a video of this sometime today.
Other than that good stuff. You’ve got a strong Cammy.
Good stuff, Olympian! The cl.s.HP tip against shoto jump-ins is a really good one - I’m working on training myself to do it in reaction to j.MK crossups and the like.
I don’t have much to add after Ixion and Stein’s very thorough posts, but props on landing the j.LK crossup on a not-huge char like Ken. And yea, I’ve been liking high LK dive kick against shotos for a while - I just love seeing their SRKs whiff completely, lol.
i went for EX strikes into ultra just to be flashy!.. (for a friendly/casual matches is alright )
c.HP to punish tatsu… i just couldnt get it out in time… unlike ryu… with ken you can tag him on his recovery with c.mk into SA as punishment (if he’s doing regular tatsu)…
“At about 0:36 into the second vid you could probably have done an ultra through his fireballs or ex-hooligan as he was just throwing them out one after the other”
yeah that was my random EX Cannon Strike = Ultra attempt!
in that match, yes:
just to piss him off! mainly
but honestly, its better to go for a combination of both… combo (something that ends with SA preferably)… and throws… just whatever gets him closer to the corner…
after i watched the videos again, i was like “wow… i should’ve Cannon Spiked!” (or reverse cannon spiked for crossups)…
Stein, why the hell does Sagats jumping elbow (j.mp?) trade with Cannon Spike?.. i was so pissed off last night against Sagat… especially for deep jump ins…
SA as anti air? emmmm… thats tricky… i will try it out… (but im afraid it will trade?)
me too i love me some whiffed SRK! lolx… be careful with s.hp as anti crossup against shotos… right spacing is crucial…
my own assessment:
I NEVER USED AIR THROW! WTH… i just noticed that now… it beats air tatsu… and jumping back air throw beats crossup…!!
i find it hard to incorporate Hooligan (EX or regular) and Spin Knuckle…
