Dhalsim Video Thread

Ok, I was just on YouTube and was bored watching rap battle videos, when I decided to see if the 20,000bp Dhalsim player (on XBOX Live) “SirJMcWild” had any videos for my viewing pleasure. This was taken 2 months ago on shaky cam footage, but if there needs to be ANY proof whatsoever that this particular individual boosted to get his points, this video speaks for itself:

At this point in time, he had 15,000bp. My jaw was agape the entire time… it’s like, dude, if you’re gonna boost your stats, at least be REMOTELY good with the character you’re going to use. sigh His missed flash kick punishes are ell oh ell…

/end rant

P.s. - with so many players out there, how is it possible to boost in this game anyway? I assure you I don’t plan on using this information nefariously. Strictly curious. Dude had a LOT of time on his hands I guess.

Hey guys I’m going to start posting some videos of my losses to get advise. I feel like I’m plateauing. I’m not great so I know trolling will go on lol. Hopefully I can filter that and see different points of view on my game. Here’s two, I will be posting some more.

PS. I don’t have a great way to record, sorry about low quality.

I’ve heard of “boosting”, my question is, how does one do this? Not that I’m interested in doing it, just curious how it’s even possible.

I’m not a very good player, and I have problems against both characters in your vids (yes, I lose all mirrors), but I can offer my 2 cents:

-Against Rufus, I like to save super, then I dont need to guess after I block a Messiah kick. Just do lk slide with super motion buffered. If he does the overhead follow up, you’ll pass below him and can punish. If he does the sweep thing, he eats slide + super.

  • Against Dhalsim, you did a wake up super, but used the fierce version, I think, he blocked and you got punished. If you arent sure your super will connect, use always lp super, cause its safe on block. This is valid against every character, not only a full bar Dhalsim.

^ lp super is SAFER on block, not safe.

-5 is not punnished hard by most characters, and if you performe it as a meaty, it can be pretty much safe:) Just sayingxD

You´re right. Things like Chun’s super will punish you hard. Anyway, I think wake up super is almost never a good ideia.

my videos dont get cropped and posted on youtube…i just won my local ranbat last week and we had casuals this week where i was on the stick for over an hour. These are from justin.tv so i will tell you the start and end points and watch however you want

Thx for your input man. Imma give the slide/super a try. Oh and btw, I won’t lie, that super I threw was out of desperation lol.

the desciption of the video is wrong, this is the first time I faced daigo. I also met him in the 5v5 tournament and I think that was recorded so it should surface soon.

Sadface on that second video’s end.
Good god sweeping st.fierce. Sheesh…

…just watch it

Random gief beating Mochi. Somehow im not surprised considering the matchup

the matchup turned drasticly into sims favour in super when they gave him shangri-la and nerfed zangiefs air hit box.

Agreed.

hey man, here’s some stuff i noticed about the sim mirror:

-You never used back mk when up close. Especially when sim lands from a teleport and you get a free b.mk xx yoga flame
-Also, after a backthrow use ex fire to do IAT BnB, it travels faster and if your opponent does IAT back to get out, the EX fire will still hit.

  • IAT more, it’s basically all you do in this match is react to what your opponent does, if he jumps forward and does a normal, IAT and punish or go for j.mp
  • Relax, idk why you didnt super after ultra, but the only reason I can think of is you had to many things running through your head. Even if you accidentally teleport behind your opponent when you land ultra, you can still super them. If you’re unsure of the distance you can lk or mk slide to gain ground and then super.

For rufus, i could only watch like 20 seconds cause the blurry quality made me want to rip my eyes out:

-Don’t slide under dive kicks, ever. Doesn’t work, won’t work, and you will eat a shit load of damage everytime you try. Rufus is one of my best characters and I know for a fact instant dive kicks cannot be slid under.

Imo U2 is not a good choice vs gief unless hes really bad. By the time you get U2 you’re already in the corner. U1 gives you extra space to maneuver.

you don’t get u1 faster than u2 and u2 is basically guaranteed if you have it outside the corner since gief has to jump in this matchup.
