hey guys…recorded a few matches between me and a buddy tonight so let me know what u think…didnt get a chance to do anything fancy and i botched a few things, but meh lol
^I don’t know what you could improve there that was pretty ruthless! Really good Cammy :karate:
Nah wasn’t boring! They were fun games. Couple of extra pointers you might want to try:
[LIST]
[]Some of Cammy’s normal attacks are better than others, when you’re not that close to your opponent standing mk, crouch mk, and standing hk are probably the best ones to throw out there looking for a hit. And remember to buffer the spiral arrow after a crouch mk. If you’re next to your opponent crouch lk is probably the best attack to use as it sets up some nice combos.
[]You built up her Super meter fully in most matches and didn’t really use her ex moves. Ex-Cannon Strike is really useful, and Ex-Hooligan is good every now and then. If you’re playing against someone with a fireball Ex-Spiral Arrow is good for going under the fireball.
[]I don’t think I saw you do a single wake-up cannon spike when you were getting up from a knock down. Thats actually a **really **good habit but they can be useful in the right situation. I was able to just walk up and throw you a lot when you were getting up, a cannon spike would make me more cautious.
[]Another good technique when getting up from a knock down if the opponent is right on top of you is to just backdash, just keep tapping back as you get up and it will get you out of a lot of situations.
[]Practice the focus attack into ultra, remember to dash as you’re landing the focus attack or you won’t get the full ultra. Try to use the focus attack a little more in general, you don’t have to charge it fully, as soon as someone connects with your focus just let go and you’ll probably hit them.
[]Always keep blocking even if someone starts a combo! A few times i landed the first couple of hits of a combo then messed up my timing and you could have gotten a block in but didn’t so I could carry on, hold down+back just in case even if someone is landing a few hits on you
[/LIST]
I think ur underrating him
He knows me very well and how i like to bait those headbutts,thats why he doens’t use it alot.(Every jumpin late hk i do is a bait for a headbut)
He also knows my weakness to canon spike the last bit of hp,thats why he did super/ultra to chip me
for some reason i drop c.lk c.lp c.lk more then i do the other combo, so i use c.lp more often, but im trying to work in c.lk whenever i can to make it my #1 combo.
yeah i didnt have a chance to cs fadc cs or cs fadc ultra that match, but those are big parts of my game.
Im also having problems lately with hitting c.fp c.mk combo…i get the link maybe 4/10 times…any advice?
the timing for c.hp, c.mk isnt that strict some guys around here plink it…
try it in training it could solve your problem, the input should read:
:d::hp:
:d::lk::mk:
:d::mk:
then do regular HK SA…
for plink you basically press mk~lk it would seem that you pressed them together but actually you should press mk first followed by lk…
i dont use plink, i guess im used to the timing
and honestly i dont like it because with plink the game registers mk twice… so you may end up with MK SA version or EX SA version (the extra mk registered + hk)
for wake up canon strikes are you refering to tkcs? im still working on the timing for those i always end up jumping forwards and kicking.
after i was done playing you i chance played against an abel as my first opponent.
I will always update my channel with videos, there are 6 ones from last night where my game play still sucks, but its fundementally different from my original match. Fireballers still own me, my timing on the hooligan and backfist suck for closing the distance, i also keep catchign my self accidentally throwing out comboless SA’s and ultra’s. Usually if im panicked or something
{edit} I also notice im spammng the shit out of mk and switching between s.mk and c.mk and i dont think they link at all do i should stop that because i keep getting hit inbetween
i was also trying to priactice my CS fadc CS but i always dash twice and end up on the other side of the opponent, need much more practice!
Sorry I wasn’t refering to TKCS, I wouldn’t worry about that for a while, I mean cannon SPIKE, the upwards attack. Do that while you’re on the floor after being knocked down and you can get up immediately doing that move.
Now I really shouldn’t be recommending someone to do that as its a really bad habit to cannon spike everytime you get up from a knock down, but it has its uses. Like if someone jumps in at you with an attack while you’re knocked down and getting up (like the Abel in your video does that wheel kick thing of his) or someone stood next to you trying to throw you as you’re standing up (like I kept doing), a cannon spike would probably beat them both out. Just don’t do it everytime hehe! Mix in just backdashing as you get up, or get up and throw, or block etc. Can’t be predictable.
And I noticed you spamming her MK and crouch MK a lot :wgrin: Just try to be a little more deliberate, don’t just hit them randomly. Like MK is good if they are a certain distance away, but if your opponent is right next to you it becomes the close MK version and its not great, in that situation close MP or crouch LK would be better. Further away then MK, crouch MK and crouch HK are better. Just learn the best distances for her attacks.
I had 10 (best of 5) matches with DBC tonight, didnt win any of them but it was fun.
Here is the link to all of them (3 are still uploading)
But of them number 6 was my best match i think

9 was okay
[media=youtube]sqL7KQHux2o[/media]
self crit:
my wake up is pretty bad, i always thought he was closer so i have a lot of whifed/missed CS’s. need to work on that. Also i need to work on my block strings and spend more time in the TR with combo practice. I have also been having a problem with accidentally doing the DPM (CS) instead of QCF (SA)
edit: video’s have no sound, i forgot to turn duel output on the ps3 on so the pvr didnt recieve any sound just my tv
DBC has got a great Cammy, you’ll be able to learn a lot watching those matches back and spotting what he does in certain situations.
Some things to keep in mind:
[LIST]
[]Try to avoid using the close standing versions of MK and HK. Up close stick to things like her LP, LK (standing or crouch), and standing MP. Also don’t jump in with MK, use HK instead and try and follow it with crouch MK.
[]Also be ready to dash out of a focus attack, if you’re charging it up you need to be prepared to dash always, whenever you land a focus attack you can’t let the oppourtunity go
[]Slow things down a little when you’re close to your opponent, don’t throw out lots of normals as it leaves you a bit open for a counter attack. You can wait to react to what they do rather than always taking the fight to them.
[]If you can land a throw, Cammy’s back throw is better than her forward throw.
[*]When in doubt just backdash on wake-up (DBC is the master of that!)
[/LIST]
ive watched them all like 3 or 4 times already i rewatch all my recorded matches multiple times looking for things
edit: i moved 9 and 10 into that playlist since they where still uploading when i went to bed, In those matches i played a bit different, weither or not it was better i dont know.
1: stop mashing. go into training room and practice her BnB combo. the combos you are doing up close are unsafe. Such as mk xx spike and c.mk xx spiral arrow. See, when DBC hits you with c.mk->spiral arrow, hes either comboing it or doing it just out of the c.mk range preying on the fact that you are gonna press a button that moves your sprite forward into the c.mk xx arrow. If you havent noticed already, if you do c.mk xx arrow on an opponent, and it hits or blocks, the arrow will come out no matter what if it makes contact. Now if you do it just out of range so it doesnt make contact, the arrow wont come out.
2: There is no number 2, you have to have safe combos as well as combos to punish with in your arsenal to start to find out your real flaws. And do what ixion said as well. Specially the part about spamming normals. I know you can see DBC spam normals as well, but his intentions are different. Hes playing the footsies game while you are just pressing buttons. Also, as you can tell, he can back those pokes up with combos are are hit confirmable.
Once you have her hit-confirm combo down pat as well as a good punish combo, then you can learn the footsies game and then finally start playing the true mind game of street fighter. So yeah, thats my advice, get some combos up your sleeve. Good Luck, fellow cammy controller.
Some new video’s from me versus a good ryu
[media=youtube]CimFZL5pAtM"[/media]
[media=youtube]fC6NYJZGUs0"[/media]
1:46 very interesting,a quick lk canon strike will make the dp miss
[media=youtube]Ovcx5ziXxP0"[/media]
1:55 hooligan>super
I am smashing my buttons because my fingers are cold
interesting note,neutral jump mk hits almost everything out of the air.
you know why… because that ryu couldnt stop jumping into it could he…??
Hooligan Slide underneath Super was EPIC… im at work and i just burst out laughing in the office… (people r giving me weird looks )
overall ditn… Good Job… huge improvement… i enjoyed the matches thoroughly…
quick pointers tho:
air throw… its really awesome… especially at corner pressure if they try to jump over you… jump back and air throw them back into the corner
against ryus wakeup… jump and lk strike… if he DP (it will miss) you land behind him… if he doesnt… you land infront… (aim for the head!)… EX strike is awesome in this situation also… since you can follow it up with your favorite combos…
there is nothing Ryu can do about it except block (its a crossup)…
i give you props for using Hooligan and SBF… the two moves r useless if im playing my friend… he stuff them everytime… (only EX hooligan against his hadukens)
Heh that takes some good timing or some good luck, want to know something that gets nearly every Ryu mad? When you THROW him out of the super, I have pulled that a grand total of 2 times but it was hilarious each time.
I dunno man this was pretty good! Honda’s headbutts are so quick and unpredictable most of the time and that of course is a good source of heavy damage he can stack up on cammy if he catches you off guard (speaking for myself anyway) so I’d try to look out even more against those. You look pretty solid in the first video! (the only one I watched) Good shit.
i probably dont have enough experience against honda to critique the matches… overall good job… you and Stein recently posted videos against Honda…
now the difference is that YOURS were harder… (honestly)… simply because that honda used his AA attacks more effectively… splashes and EX headbutts KILL Cannon Strike attempts… it just shows how a defensive honda can be a real PAIN!.. if only he used FA more frequently… you’d probably have a tougher time against him… and damn … hands combo into HK = half your life bar is gone!!..
things that i liked:
lk crossups
meaty c.HP (followed by combo)
i saw one lovely meaty s.cl.mp, c.lk, SA FADC (totally took me by surprise… )
great ex and regular strike mix up on his wakeup…
things that i noticed?:
Reversal Wakeup Cannon Spike: that honda had NO mix up plans when you are knocked down… he just waited for you to miss Cannon Spike then punish!!.. seriously… i thought you will catch that and STOP cannon spiking on wakeup…
EX hooligan: worked once… cost you the match the next time you used it… im not sure if its useful in this matchup… and can be predictable… especially if honda is sitting on charge while you are a full screen away (with EX meter)…
other than that awesome sauce… im also clueless about this matchup…
3-bar connection, completely laggy so we both play badly. This is a cammy who doesn’t even punish balls, so i keep doing them. But still thre are parts to the matches that show the pressure game cammy can mount. I played this set before i played cobelcog.
