I live upstate, 5 hour drive. I wish we could hang out. I’d stomp you.
I actually live in Manhattan, not far at all from Penn Station… I have some pending plans for the weekend and I dunno what exactly you have in mind (3S related stuff, a place to stay, or just advice on what to do in NYC/a tour guide etc.), but PM me if you want to talk about it more.
Oh, and I got to play djbooty829 for a while today… not sure who his main is, but his Akuma is nasty (and I’m pretty sure he described his Akuma as merely “ok”).
Akuma online is f’ing near impossible to parry but I’ve played DJ before and I know when I’ve been thoroughly mind-fucked…
I’ve so much more to learn… So many years behind…:shake:…
Btw, does Demon-flipxxRaging Demon work?
Sorry, I’m a Spurs fan.
im on a line out of penn station. lets play 3S and kiss or whatever i dont know lol
when can you ever combo into raging demon?
I assume he wasn’t talking about comboing, but I dunno. Demoning right after a df dive kick can work. If you cancel the df into dive kick late enough, the move won’t become active, and then if you are in that point blank range (especially if the victim tries to parry and thus moves even closer), you can just demon right there and it will be inescapable, and if he tries to throw or SRK but doesn’t start it soon enough etc. etc. then the demon will definitely hit in those situations, too. So, yeah, it’s a viable tactic if you can pull off the execution. If a jab comes out or if you accidentally get palm (which has huge recovery), then that drastically reduces the chances of it working for obvious reasons.
And I dunno if you know this or are trolling or joking or what have you, but you actually can combo into demon from far hard kick, and I have no idea why/how that works, and it’s definitely not something high level Akumas are focused on landing, but you can combo into it that way. It’s one of Akuma’s trials in 3SOE.
yeah i see what you’re saying. i guess you could try and be really tricky with it if the other guy is terrified of your dive kick pressure/hadou/everything akuma does in the air.
xx means cancel which is why i was confused. thought i was missing something. also forgot about that weird trial, strangeness.
I know you weren’t asking, but iirc its because the far RH turns them around similar to Alex’s mp and hp flash chop.
Right, exactly, if your opponent has shown favorable tendencies during dive kick pressure (like blocking or parrying/trying to parry (lol)), I imagine it can be very successful (it’s not something I’ve worked on too much thus far, but hey, maybe I will now). I’ve seen JR land it in a video or two… not to say that makes it smart demon
You’re right about the cancel, and if I had noticed that detail, perhaps I would have answered with more hesitation than I did.
Deep down, I was hoping that some experienced 3S/Akuma head such as yourself would clear that up for me - cheers.
np.
just for fun, couple random facts about that combo
does not work vs q and urien. not sure why but looks like they turn around quicker than other characters? or maybe just a skinny hitbox?
red parrying the last hit of electric snake puts you at perfect range for far RH x demon (as long as its not some willy nilly full screen electric snake). one of the easiest red parries imo too.
It’s called Dark Tien Demon, at least I think that’s the name that was used when I first learned about it. It’s a bit gimmicky but I really like it. Must hide the lpx2 right in the beginning of the demon flip so nothing comes out then hit forward a moment before empty canceling with lk into hp right as you land. Not too hard once you get down the rhythm.
In the corner canceling a st.hp into lk demon flip then Dark Tien as you land and they recover is nice if you’ve put the fear of your air offense in their heads. Cr.mk into mk demon flip at the right spacing is alright too. You can always just demon flip in their face on wake up but that’s a bit risky. Possible to cross over too.
DJBooty was the first gouki that’s used it on me on xbl so far. It was great.
Never thought f.hk would actually hit from that far. In my mind, I can barely cr.mk xx SA most of the time.
Thx for the tip!
Sick
THE ONLY CHARACTERS STANDING ROUNDHOUSE INTO RAGING DEMON DOESN’T WORK AGAINST ARE ELENA, URIEN AND GILL… YOU CAN DO IT ON Q BUT ONLY IF HE ISN’T STUN… IF HE IS JUST JUMP OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE AND COMBO IT FROM THERE JUST LIKE HUGO WHEN HE GETS STUNNED… LOL… CMON PHERAI A LITTLE LESS SFxT AND A LITTLE MORE 3S… YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF AKUMA IN 3S SLIPPING…
LATERZZZ
Correction only Akuma can combo a raging demon.
Give me royalties you thieves…
And you should rename the thread to - is ANYONE online as good as Gunfight (or me) yet?
