You might want to try mixing up your block strings (check the thread on block strings) and not ending them with ducking each time. If you end a few with LP MGB instead. The next time you end your string with a duck they might not be expecting it and react incorrectly.
The other way to look at it is that you have conditioned your friend to grab after ducking, so that means you are free to mix him up with a few things for free as long as they are throw invulnerable. SSB is an option. Neutral jump RH is also an option. If you have U2 stocked, then I would just LP Jet upper into U2. With no U2, then I’d do LP JU into LP MGB or HP JU.
For Ken, if you are looking to catch a buffered RH and they are hitting you with sweeps, try positioning yourself optimally to counter hit, and focus or jump in instead. If they are looking for your RH and go to sweep, you get in for free.
Honda’s even AE since he lost his 400 damage per combo and we can now punish his headbutts and NJ/HP and Jump in MP withotu fear.
Guile still beats Dudley in AE its just he wont have a full super from hitting you with c.MK and sonic booms the whole match.
Rose is free.
Chun is even, EX Duck Upper OS beats backdash Hozanshu and EX spinning bird
Rog does not dominate Dudley its even, Bison is probably 5.5 4.5 in AE now since his scissor pressure is BETTER (vs dudley)
Sim is dead Even you’ll see why later.
Seth and Dominate anyone, but one mistake pretty much ends the round.
I’ve been playing dudley for a little while, and I feel I need to be able to convert damage more effectively. My previous main has no useful plinkable combos so I’ve never bothered learning. Is there a list of combos for duds that are plinkable? Is plinking especially helpful for dudley players?
Oh yes, very important to plink with Dudley. Any button you’re trying to plink is plinkable in a combo as long as it’s not a lp or lk. Just read up on how to plink and apply it to any combo you want.
Can anyone help me with finding counter-hit combos for Dudley? I cannot locate it in the forums. Maybe I’m an idiot. f.hp links with c.lp/s.lp, right? What other useful counter-hits does he have?
Damn I type ALL this up.
and you dont even do anything with it.
Did you even go to training mode?
shit
lets try this
Go to training mode > turn on counter hit then do:
If not
Go to Mellow’s youtube channel and watch those videos.
come on man
you cant be a lazy dudley main.
what’s the point in the game when you dont play it.
ok this is confusing me.
In AE dudleys falling h.k spikes the opponent to the ground right?
What can I use to substitute for his falling h.k, cl.hk, machine gun combo instead?
Looking for some inspiration. I can do all the links now but I’m not the most creative, looking for some help with mixups (other than usual oh, cr lk, throw) and more tricks like f.mkx2 throw.
And what’s everyones favourite strings/frame traps? I’m pretty limited in this department too.
HP Jet upper
Walk forward and just do it.
Make a habit of it
start off doing it early, then hen you get better, do it late for trades (no invincibility)
c.HP is best NORMAL for anti airs when you master it, 200 stun,
Jet upper or duck upper are best anti jumps period tho
Cross counter too
Very hard to utilize duck upper as an anti air unless YOU KNOW you’re opponent is going to jump. Otherwise, it’s very hard despite the fact that it has upper-body invisibility. c.HP is bad against characters with deep box jump ins like Blanka, Zangief, Chun Li, etc. You’ll lose the battle with c.HP a lot of the times, st.MK is the way to go.
c.HP is very good against jump-ins like Ryu, Ken, you know… jumps in that don’t have vertical jump in attacks like Blanka for instant.
Alright, quick question about Dudley’s thunderbolt. I’m testing Boxer’s meaty jab O/S sweep, and I do ex.thunderbolt and it doesn’t get hit by the meaty, activates the O/S and hits him on the way down. I know the attack doesn’t have any invincibility in the air, and that the ex version tracks so i can’t cross up, but I was 100% positive it had no startup invincibility. Anyone have any information as to if the hitbox is just really weird on startup, or something like that?
