You get a choice? Why would they decline? Talk about being mentally defeated before even beginning
Yea it was pretty bad like who comes to evo then doesent want to be on stream? They made us coinflip and I lost both times
How did ves do against infiltration? Any other Blankas do well?
Ferris did well. He got out of pools(losing a close set to Xian), and got a few games out in losers.
I choked my ass off vs. infil.
I wanna see said choking lol anyone record ur matches or ferris’s?
my only match I know that got recorded was my match vs. SuperJ(Honda), so sad I lost. LuckyD recorded it.
No idea about Ferris.
I was on just not enough sleep/food for Infil. Was playing completely cold too and he’d been warming up for over an hour.
Made it to winners finals of my pool, which was 99.9% charge characters, but didn’t make it out. I defiantly choked at some key moments in both sets and can only blame myself for that. No excuses though, only improvements. This was my first evo, and knowing that I was so close to making it out has me really motivated to keep working towards next year.
was watching Evo… and was quite impress with PR Rog’s use of FA, any thoughts to this and how this can be incorporated in Blanka’s game?
-LAU
I use it in exactly the same way already, but it’s harder to get the crumple because Blanka doesn’t get as much frame advantage off cr.lk, close st.lp (and they have worse range than Boxer cr.lp) or far st.lp
Plus Blanka can’t force block of level 2 and actually get pressure
In other words wish for a FA upgrade in Ultra.
Balrog’s FA range is horrible though - not sure I’d trade more frame advantage for shorter reach. Of course I’d like to have the best of both worlds.
so maybe can use it during electricity pressure?
-LAU
There is a big difference in FA for balrog and blanka. Balrog’s leads into RIDICULOUS damage with only 1 meter. Blanka’s doesn’t lol.
Cl.mp s.lp xx electricity for very basic combo isn’t that bad… Now if you wanna get fancy you can do c.lk then whatever…
Rog gets cl.hk, cr.mp xx ex upper, cr.lp, cr.mp xx hp headbutt
Huge difference.
Also rog can throw reset.
Blanka can too! cl.strong kara throw
nyuk nyuk nyuk
Cast and dj vest also both made it out of pools
booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
