damn that’s a sexy plink
Let me find a host, all of the ones I were going to use cost money now or require a signup and I’m lazy. I’ll try to get them up today.
I actually have a bad habit of letting go of the buttons and then I have to repress during the ultra. which you can see there.
I’m gonna practice that method for a bit, see if I can’t get c.lk, c.lk, c.lk Ultra 1 down or j.Hk/j.Hp, c.MK, Ultra 1. It will make CH c.MK, Ultra 1 easier too. No reason not to plink, at least that’s my philosophy.
I’m really bad at confirming the counterhit to ultra for some reason, but great at confirming it to another cr.mk or to sweep. I should grind that.
Ryu’s aren’t doing anything majorly different. Also the only time at all if someone is gonna force you to block a nuetral jump is if he does that on wakeup and safejumps you. You can AA it in all other situations with a few things. But i think what Ves is trying to say is why is he directly in front of you neutral jumping. That’s not the optimal range for blanka vs ryu.
CH c.MK, sweep is the one I usually go for because its the most consistent, but I really need to learn to maximize my damage with Blanka. So either CH c.MK, Ultra 1, or CH c.lk or CH c.MK, c.MK xx M Ball xx L Super
mk mk xx ball xx super I don’t think works on anyone with M ball other than Blanka IIRC. You need a super fat hitbox, and you mostly ch blanka crouching anyways.
As you may have realised I’m no good at recounting offensive procedures. Putting stuff into writing is like ‘dear diary’ after far too much acid. It’s all learning. I have a good automatic-safe response after most things… still it’s nice to see a few good reads and new tech from Ryus. That said I am predictable, very sometimes.
Any advice for doing Close strong ~ stand jab xx HP elec ? I play with a stick, i can doing stand jab xx Elec HP with the slide method by doing LP MP HP MP HP but for Close strong ~ stand jab xx HP elec, i don’t know how to do it so just do it with the LP elec or the EX sometimes wich is a real wast of meter.
Same as st.lp xx hp.elec, just quickly move your finger into position after the st.mp. I only really use it as a dizzy punish, my st.mp always comes out too slow and I get reversal-ed. My own fault.
The other way I do it is to: j.hk, st.mp (buffer piano hp, mp) lp, mp, hp (usually the mp, hp part comes out mp~hp; ex.elec) but I don’t mind the ex coming out, at least it doesn’t whiff on some characters.
The same and it works thanks, the timing is weird, i like to use this punish after a focus crumple or on meaty.
I’ve been working of whiff punishing more. For example I let Ryu get away with blocked sweeps too much. Now I punish every time with slide, which seems to me the best punish in any situation.
It depends of the move, Ryu’s sweep has a huge recovery, slide and also sweep, crouching fierce and standing fierce are nice for whiff punishing.

well thats a block punish not a whiff punish.
punish whiff sweeps with slide too.

yeah i do that too, should have been more specific in the post
crouch fierce xx L super (release immediately if they are far away to get it to connect), would you guys say its worth it as a whiff punish?
I’ve used it to whiff punish, but it’s wonky. sometimes you’ll be too far.
