DeeJay General Discussion

agreed, charge chars like my Chun and DeeJay definitely suffer when playin with lag. Noob Ken/Ryu HP DP during lag FTW everytime haha.

damn I hope the chip damage on Ultra 1 doesn’t get nerfed, I love watching ppl get pissed when I launch it as a CH and take away ppls last piece of health lol.

I wouldn’t lump chun in there, 3f jabs and shorts, plus an awesome backdash. Not to mention her hazanshu is harder for the opponent to deal with, and her primary offensive tool outside of her normals is a mashed input (ex legs).

she can hold her own in lag.

What this means is that he now has an EX slide (down + KK), and it travels as fast as an EX Sonic Boom. It will also have armor and go full screen. And it knocks grounded opponents into a free juggle state.

Edit: just got confirmation that it’s +8 on block

+8?

ex as > U2?
ex as > U1 easier?

the possibilities.

He was joking.

Edit: IF ABSOLUTELY ANYONE TRIES TO CLAIM THE EX SLIDE POST WAS TROLLING I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND BITE YOUR ARMS OFF I AM SO GODDAMN TIRED OF EVERYONE ON THE INTERNET THINKING THEY ARE A TROLL OR KNOW WHAT TROLLING IS LATELY

i know trolling. i just thought i’d entertain the idea of ex as being +8 instead of +5

Deejay isn’t as good as the other charge characters because his normals do not work properly. St fierce always trades, his slide can’t go under the startup of sonic boom properly, and sonic booms can’t be ex sobat kicked properly. St mp should always be the cl st MP animation, and cr short has just a bit too much recovery. If they fixed these things and made ultra 1 full connect after ex mgu he would be fine.

those aren’t bad fixes.

i just don’t want ex mgu to combo into U1 fully. Everybody will try to pick him up because he has an easy ultra setup. i can see it now. Wait somebody would have to get far with him in a major tournament first.

Hopefully capcom took your ideas into consideration.

One of the fixes i want is St. Fierce always launches OR make crouching opponents launch. WTH would i want a force stand? the move still leaves me negative on hit even with the CH.

St. mk needs to not be negative 5 on block and 3 on hit what is that about. i can get chun supered just for trying to push her out of cr. short range?

I still love deejay with his flaws tho lol if they fixed him with some slight buffs then he would be more than tournament ready and still not easy mode.

I think this is less Deejay’s fault and more Guile’s obnoxious recovery. Nobody can punish him with anything. I’ve seen Dudley’s U1, point blank and on reaction to the SB, get blocked.

The only time i can punish an SB with EX sobat is right after Guile AA’s me with his cr. fierce. The second my feet hit the ground most Guile’s with throw an EX SB at you, which is the perfect time to pop off the EX Sobat (i think it only works on an EX SB though).

Also, a little off topic, but i discovered something interesting the other night. If this is already well known i apologize. But i was playing against a Sagat, staying close and throwing out some lk sobats, when all the sudden i did one at the same time he threw a low TS. And Deejay just went right through it and tagged him. Does lk sobat always go through low TS? Am i a scrub for just learning this now?

^if he doesn’t throw sonice boom after he cr. HP you, then he can punish with pretty much anything. You shouldn’t really jump on him anyways.

And yeah that works, its not new. You can do it to Sagat to be like, yeah I’m cool. But its pretty dam hard since he’s throwing all different versions, and highs. Maybe up close you can poke with safe LK sobat, and get lucky.

Tomorrow, I’ll be pl… : ???

DJ’s new alt. Looks pretty sweet.

^Awesome! Now I’ll have something to wear when fighting Giefs in the Russian trainyard. Does anyone know when it comes out?

I’m going to need to see some other colors. Preferably 10 and 9

Yeah, Dee Jay’s new alt is probably the sickest of the bunch (although, I’m probably biased).
Dudley’s is nice too. I think most of the latest alts are fun, and I can’t wait to see them in action.

LK Sobaits goes through fierce and strong low TS. Jab TS is to slow to go through.

LK Sobalts get stuff by backhand =(

Also, Ex maxout into ex dreads is sometimes you miss someone with mgu…

Ex: jump in c lp c lp c mp ex mgu (mgu spaces you away from the char and doesnt launch) doesnt work on all chars, you’d either have to do clp clp mgu or c lp c mp mgu…

Also im digging jump in xx s mk c mp xx whatever or st mk c lp c mp xx whatever even though the c lp only adds 2 dmg! Lol

I like links off of cl.mk too, but I never tried them in an actual match except for c.mk. The timing is still tricky for me, but if you can hit confirm it, it’s awesome damage.

Also, I don’t like his new alt that much. I would’ve liked Robo DeeJay or something with a sleeveless shirt, but this one is meh, mostly because of the hat.

Pretty cool… something funny though about someone with “Peace” written on the back of his jacket beating people up for fun.

You don’t.

I like Dee Jays new alt better then his current one. I would’ve liked to see it minus the jacket though. If he was shirtless still with those cool new gloves I’d be happy. His current alt is ok but if it doesn’t say Maximum on the side of his legs it just isn’t Dee Jay imo.
