Dee Jay

[exploid]

You get blue for playing the character in arcademode. You get red for doing it on hardest difficulty

[M1tchapalooza]

^^ thanks
oh i figured out today God hates me because my PS3 just got the yellow light of doom so i wont be able to play for a while

My roommate, who happens to be Jamaican, picked Deejay last night and when he heard him talk he said “I thought he was Jamaican. Why is he speaking American? He sounds like he’s from New York or something!”

In other stuff, his cr. mp and cr. hp seem to beat a lot of things like they did in ST. Has anyone tested it against Rog rush punches? I know you could kill them with cr.hp on reaction.

Heh, Phil Lamarr (voice actor for Deejay) only knows one Jamaican voice, the one he plays on Futurama:

Oddly enough Hermes from Futurama is from New New York lol.

didn’t know cl.mk can link into itself on deep jumpins. Kinda interesting stuff you can do off of it, pretty good damage for 1 meter on a jump in, and only a 2 frame link.

[Jcool813]

an easier link to sweep is

cl lk cr mk
its hella free compared to the jab sweep which is still pretty easy.

i compare it to Bisons link to mk
cr. lk cl lk cr mk < cr. lk cl lp cr mk

[Veserius]

oh that cl.mk to cl.mk link is character dependent. Thats why I didn’t know about it.

i wasn’t responding to anything you said haha

it was just saying its an easier link to sweep.

I’ve found with testing dee jay shit out that comboing into MGU (cr.lp, cr.mp, MGU) seems to be his best option:

1. strongest option
2. leaves them close
3. still possible to mixp crosses
4. safest on block aside from max out
5. combos into U2

Thoughts?

Oh I know, I was responding to myself I guess. I was practicing the link on Bison, then went to try it on Boxer, and it didn’t work. I need to test it on everyone.

@ C3 This is what I’ve got:

-cr. LP > cr. LP > EX MGU (mash/no mash) > EX Dread Kick = 244/230
-cr. LP > cr. MP > EX MGU (mash/no mash) > EX Dread Kick = 284/270

These combos work after cross ups on Ryu (still need to go through the cast and see which bnbs work). They’re good to do when you have two stocks midscreen. The cr. LP > cr. LP link is two frames (can’t be plinked), whereas the cr. LP > cr. MP is one (two by plinking). You can add an extra cr. LP on a deep (non-crossup) jump in for more time to hit confirm, although it does slightly less damage.

cr. LP > cr. LP > cr. MP > EX MGU (mash/no mash) > EX Dread Kick = 260/255

Also the other day I punished Dudley’s EX Machine Gun Blow on block with Ultra 2. And also I had my blocked EX Dread Kick punished by a Dudley’s Corkscrew Blow.

[afrotronic]

any one notice dread kicks not breaking armor? I had a match today where the second hit of mk dreads didnt armor break a rushing boxer
never had a problem with lk, maybe its just the second hit that doesnt work. he took the hit and it just made the normal absorb sound, no shatterd glass. I think i died a little bit on the inside :crybaby:

O_o Really? Im gonna have to look at the frame data, because that doesn’t sound right.

[neato]

O_o Really? Im gonna have to look at the frame data, because that doesn’t sound right.

I think it’s less of a frame data thing and more of a “this move pushes them really far away” thing.

[ILL_BILL]

Ugh. Yea, youre right. My bad. Im an idiot.

Also, Afro: Only the first hit of Sobat Kicks breaks armour unfortunately.

[Tyram]

Ok so here is where I’m at with Dee jay now.

bnb combo I always end with lk sobat kick. Why??

1. breaks focus
2. knock down
3. keeps enemy close for vortex game
4. safe on block ( seems to be)

ex up kicks to kill cross up atemps

I hope to get some games in against you guys soon. Maybe we can have a endless match sometime and work on the mirror match and talk about the character and strats via mic.

With Deejay’s super scary corner game, i find myself ending combos with EX sobat when i can. His short hop, safe projectile, and overall great pressure just makes him a beast in the corner. so i try to keep them there.

Yes, thank you.

If you get the second hit only of the mk/hk sobats it doesn’t break armor. The first hit always does.

After play testing like crazy last night, i’ve realized the traditional cr.lk or lp, cr.lp, cr.mp, spec. move is the better option becausethe cr.lp, cr.mp, mgu whiffs on certain opponents. It’s very very space dependent, and it would definitely be frustrating to lose a match because it randomly whiffed. So:

lk dread for vortex
max out on block
mgu/EX mgu/EX max out in the corner

Ok so here is where I’m at with Dee jay now.

The only issue I have with lk dread kick on block is that it’s -6 (easily DP’able) and you can’t follow up with anything in time because of the lag. Max out leaves them really close and is only -1. Follow up with an EX sobat or something to punish an attack.

With Deejay’s super scary corner game, i find myself ending combos with EX sobat when i can. His short hop, safe projectile, and overall great pressure just makes him a beast in the corner. so i try to keep them there.

Yea, use EX sobat to push them to the corner, then MGU/EX sobat combos.

Some of you may hate me for asking this, but I am curious what the consensus is - where do you all think Dee Jay lies on the tier list?
