I use b.mp on her hooligans.
normal or EX yoga blast for hooligans? I’m just guessing but that seems like a good option.
Duck (avoids the hooligan) press Fierce Punch.
You can b.mp her hooligan? Seemed like the last few times I tried b.mp and b.hk I got thrown anyways. Seems to have crazy range.
Correct me, if I’m wrong, but even if the d.hp hits cammy, she recovers faster than sim and get off a quick cannon spike from that range. Unless you’re talking about db.hp, but then it’s hard to tell if she ends up in front or behind you.
Does anyone think MORE yoga towers, even some random ones thrown in, is a good tactic against cammy? hooligan goes through it, drill goes through it, and her backfist whiffs if it’s done from close range as well.
I’ll try that next time i fight her. b.mp does work if you get it out in time. I like this down db.fp option, can’t wait to try it.
adnan, learn your anti airs so you dont have to rely on EX Blast so much. That way you can save up for Super =). You’ve got b.HK, b.MP, j.MP, j.HK (might have to time this one though), st.HK.
KungFuJo, instead of sweeping you could just try BnB or Super or whatever. Anything thats faster than Sweep. If she lands too far, try Slide > Throw, although you’ll have to learn the distance of the throw range.
Yes, Sim has some of the best AA normals in the game (if not the best!). It’s just a matter of learning the right distances, and the right situations in which each should be used. And Sim’s super is so good that you definitely want to save up for it.
That said, EX Yoga Blast does have its uses. I use it against Characters with weird angles on their air attacks, like Gen, or Chun’s j.RH.
lol i know all of sims anti airs lol but i was talking about cannon strike or the ex version of it can not be b hK to anti air it, yoga blast works against it the best.
any good psn dhalsims that know the honda or want to learn the honda matchup wanna play??? give me an add
I’m a noob to Sim. Just started using him lately. I’m doing ok but I’m having a really tough time with certain matchups. So I came here to do some reading…Lol. Does anyone know of a complete matchups thread somewhere else or do I have to start trawling through this thread now? 
I ignore hooligans. 
I don’t even try to punish them. Cammy is too fast. I tend to react against her and instant-air teleport out of her path and reset the match. I double perfected a Cammy that way.
Might as well start reading now, sunshine. We’re gonna be here a while.
I have a problem with Giefs that spam green hand to get in. Anyone get any counters against this?
block when gief is in green hand range, or get out of that range. its part of learning the match up
think about it. if your not pushin button. you cant get hit. neither will he, but at least your not getting hit
Ex version is very fast… I normally do a lk slide to avoid. I know I can just block crouched, but I don’t know if she’ll try to grab me or just hit low.
Normal hooligans are easily countered by b+hk.
I yoga tower hooligans, and get grabs.
You tower ex hooligan?
I tried c.fp but I don’t like it, I can never tell which side she’s going to land on.
I’ll stick with b.mp, it works for me every time.
So what of this, people? I’m running into this broad a lot lately and I’ve yet to formulate a strategy that works consistantly. I find myself jumping WAY too much, and getting crossed up more than I ought to.
I use a lot of s.mk and s.rh when in range to keep her on the ground, and j.mp when she takes flight. Other than that, I’m at a loss and have no offense.
Thoughts?
I’m also very interesting in finding a good strategy against Viper, especially against her jumps taht make me crazy. Waiting with Scampjohnson… :wgrin:
Today I’ve a find in training mode an easy way to punish Honda’s Sumo Headbutt.
I was used to FA lv 2 and punish, but when you’re in the corner sometimes Headbutt crossup you and FA whiffs.
Doing a lk slide and grab (before the butt will hit you) is easy and perhaps better.
lk slide beats headbut?
yes, but I was referring to whiff with slide, so you can grab Honda when he’s recovering.
If you hit with slide, you need to combo with something (probably only super is good), or he can ochio throw you on reaction.
