Very close stream match vs Momochi but my shitty execution strikes again. 64th place =/
Mike Ross is in top 8 for SFxTK using Blanka…
I wanna see ves
I saw your match against Momochi. Shout outs to landing overhead at least! Still unblockable.
I remember playing on those a bit at SvB a couple of years ago. At the time I couldn’t tell much difference, any particular reason you think it’s an improvement?
Lighter, more responsive, better button position, just better for me.
Is there a list of unblockables somewhere?
I need to update the unblockable thread actually. I have a few not in there.
I’m going to chart all my setups before evo and come up with new ones, so I’ll have it fixed soon enough.
I’ll also have unblockables vs. Blanka listed.
That would be awesome, I’m always rushing here after a loss trying to look up info but its scattered around and some of it is no longer applicable n stuff
Yeah sorry about that, I got things to do and SRK is very much on the backburner atm. Will definitely have everything redone by evo though.
Its all good man. Glad to see you have ur priorities straight.
Any of you guys headed to UFGT? Would love to get some casuals in with someone more proficient with this character than I am.
I saw Ves destroying a Rufus player on some stream yesterday
I played really crappy up until that last game.
Was having a lot of execution problems.
Also I can’t make it to UFGT. Will be at CEO though
The more I overlook Blanka’s framedata the less and less it makes sense. A lot of moves are designed to do x thing, but then Blanka doesn’t have the move to set that up.
this is vague.

cl.mk is a good example. It’s supposed to crush lows, but with the startup at 5f, blanka doesn’t have a good enough jab/short to set it up to do that. Plus it has no range so it can’t do it itself too well.
Why does far mk have so much recovery? It’s an okay normal with a solid hitbox but it’s punishable on hit!
Far hk is 3f which seems it should be used to crush lows, and tech from a bit farther out, but then it’s punishable on block and hit.
Mostly though it’s electricity it’s +10 on block, but Blanka has very limited ways to capitalize on it and it’s just weird. A different character with that move would be broken, but for Blanka it’s just annoying.
I’ve been playing around with s.HK recently… like most stuff in the game… just because the data says it’s punishable it doesn’t exactly happen in a real game… due to lack of knowledge, nobody cares about the move, the push back distance etc…

When I play really strong players they punish it though. I can get away with it against most people, but I’m already beating those people.
Feeling more motivated to compile stuff so I’ll get back on that, I feel when I’m doing mad labwork vs. just playing a lot I tend to play at a more even level with less high/lows.
Also I’m becoming more pessimistic about Blanka’s matchups in general.
