"Critique My Akuma!" Video Blog Thread

[media=youtube]CTICKcS5lwg[/media]

I posted this in the video thread but I felt like it belonged here more. I’d like to main Akuma (if I Don’t main everyone lol)

^^Watched it, good play^^

Only things i can suggest is, after crumple you did shoryu Dash Cancel shaku. obviously a combo like Stand Fierce -> Tatsu -> Light Shoryu -> FADC -> Shaku would have done considerably more damage.

& in general If you intend to go from Tatsu->shoryu-> Shaku then use light punch shoryuken as you’ll get max damage from both the uppercut & the fireball.

Besides that i rarely play Rufus players, so i barely no how to go up against him myself. (I know he’s a fiddly bastard)

Noted, lp shoryu fadc shaku.
And Rufus vs most ppl with and uppercut is bad for him cause he moves mostly by air. Once he gets ex tho he becomes pretty deadly.
And thank you btw ^^ :smile:

I just glanced over the vid, and one tip that I have is that if you hit someone with a jab while standing you should get used to linking another jab into tatsumaki, then ending with shoryu/sweep. Lots of free damage and gets you a knockdown opportunity.

New series of me against AjarHook, check it out at:

Jump back -> EX-flip is not good if the opponent is awake.
You use RH too much, I think you hit with it twice (non-combo link) and got hit for it like 3-4 times.
Jump too much vs. rufus in general, when he has solid AA moves, some of which will land you into a ‘your dead’ combo. Or even just eating EX handslaps or w/e the fuck that move is called.
Around 3:10 you have a horrific focus, should’ve been tagged by ex messiash kick into ultra

Noted.
This rufus wasn’t that good so I didn’t expect much. Playing Rufus knowing being in the air isnt the best place. And yes i need to stop my RH. And I was dumb founded why he didnt try to punish my focus lol i just went with it lol

I hear ya, I’m amazed what people will let me get away with when i’m just standing in front of them being open. Sometimes it’s just the preconceived notion of, ‘oh, no way he fully charges that thing’ and bam, they get tagged.

^
thats what I call a brain fart, I see the focus, he charges it and I think how to punish and bam fist/foot in the face. Need to adapt to different play styles better and quicker

or the ‘deer in the headlights’ thing. remember guys, the car didn’t kill the cat…indecision did.

YOU NEED TO DEMON MORE…:lol::lol: PLAY ME I’LL GIVE U A GOOD CHALLENGE…:lovin:

o_o do you play on live?

I’m going to add you too JR, if you don’t mind.

Love getting my ass kicked by people from SRK. :slight_smile:

JR is badass…

I went on a kinda BlazBlue vacation, but I managed to record some games yesterday against a pretty solid balrog. I know this matchup is hard, so maybe this can help some people that want to figure out the fight.

Good stuff man! Making me want to go work on my Akuma :smiley:

your best option if you plan on FADC’ing after crumple is cHP->MP-dP->FADC->shaka (422 damage) because on ground before comboing into something MP dP to FADC always does more damage because its still a ground combo so all 3 shaka hits hit.

To keep you guys updated, my 360 RROD’ed so I’m out of commission for a week or so. I have some tournaments coming up these next two weeks though, so if I manage to get it back before then I’ll start playing and uploading more. :\ Damn microsoft.

1st time or no? I know my friends are now on 4th and 3rd respectively. ;(

its the first… god now im hearing about people consistently sending their xboxes in? at some point I might just try and fix it myself…
