Psy has like 4,000 jumps she doesn’t deserve AD imo. Now…
If Gief had an air dash he’d be god-tier. Air dash cross-up SPDs, psychic flying drivers, Tri-jump Lariats with a double-sided hit-box??? Air dash metal anything. Plus he’d get a fuckin ROM. Luckily
Hmm Some interesting stuff about Sonson. Since her Giant Gorilla super DOESN’T allow u to block the first few frames(2-3?), she can create unblockable DHC’s. The best person to DHC into would be IM. Iron man, PC becomes very fast when u DHC into it(1 frame i think). The timing is a bit tight, so u have to do everything VERY fast. Just Do her Monkey super and as quickly as possible DHC into IM. It will be unblockable if done fast enough.
She can also make some AA unblockable. They have to be fast(Cyke,psylocke, but Doom and tron can work). Read about it here.
I also found out she has a infinite(looks to be corner only). For some reason i can’t cancel out the S.Hp into the crawl. Probably because of my shitty execution.
woah, I was not aware of that. You can learn something new every day!
sonson ron
c.lk+tron, c.mp, c.fp sjc before it animates, low ADF, sj.lp, sj.rh, this hits the opponent overhead, land, run back in bnb, launch, sj.lp, sj.rh for sped up FS. call tron after FS, monkey super to create UB and thats a dead character.
hmmmmmmmm
if you’re going to exploit that setup, it might be beneficial to give yourself a character that can dhc safely behind that. I would slap morrigan on that team. If the UB with tron failed, I can always do srk+pp and have it be safe. I can also use the UB part of the monkey super to DHC into morrigan and create a UB since its a screen freeze as well. Her distancing on her UB DHC isn’t as good as IM’s but she has other options that leave her safe which is a plus.
Hit him before he hits you. :rolleyes: And if you’re playing on xbox/ps3, kill him before he has meters because otherwise you have to hold back the entire match. Bait him to waste his meter or you’re pretty much down to a guessing game.
Unfortunately Cable doesn’t have that many bad match ups esp since since he will be paired up with any of the top 5 god tier, plus runaway for 70 seconds in a match can get annoying.
Best Advice is to wait until he makes a huge mistake, either by going around his AHVB or Snap his ass out and send him weakest link character usually it’s Capcom but if he has either Doom,Blackheart,Sent,Storm then don’t know what I can tell you, Oh wait you can also be very brave and go after the assists you have a slight chance that you could take out the assists before he try to punish you once again this strategy is very risky.
Cable’s worst matchups: A good Mag, Sent or Storm (in that order IMO).
As everyone says… you pretty much have to wait for him to mess up. Especially if you are playing characters with the average low-tier mobility options.
I think that it’s not the character that can compete against top tier… it’s the overall game. Defense, knowledge of DHCs, knowledge of situational low-tier gimmicks and so on. Just about everybody has something that is more useful than generally given credit for. The challenge is to find it and use it. Without getting shot.
IMO it’s storm/mag (storm can get in easier/safer/with more tools…or runaway, but mags can fuck you up more if he hits)
if your sent is better than your OPs cable…then yeah, sent. but if you are just as good with each, cable beats sent…
you want some fast characters/characters that can go through his shit
since it’s a low tier…wolvy, VDO uses rogue nicely, sonson, etc. only problem is they don’t have damage output as much. so you’ll want someone fast, but who can then keep on the pressure/mixup after their short combos. or use DHCs
Sonson would fit that bill then. she does about 68 points of damage off 1 bar(that i know of) with no assist. That’s pretty good. And yeah Cable ownz sent.
God damn you Capcom, damn you ALL! Nerf Wolvie, yet don’t even touch Mag or Storm? Fuckers even got the CPU storm tri jumping!
which would be better against cable? ice man or strider/doom?
with ice man i can block the viper beams and drain his meter but i cant do much damage wise. and with strider/doom i can chip him to death but that doesnt always work cause usually storm comes out after and just fucks me up.
