Slide beats electricity
As a former Blanka main, I can attest to this.
Does cl. = close, cr. = crouch, c = ?
How the heck do you combo crouching HP into HP Psycho Sting?
I started trying that combo today. The hit advantage for cr hp is surprisingly long. It’s just that you can’t hit anything else besides Sting after it because it pushes you so far back. It’s a one frame link though.
depends on character, some characters you can link after with st.lp, st.lk, cr.mp, or cr.lk.
On fat asses like Abel you can do multiple normals, do cr.hp, and are still able to link off of it.
You can do cr. Hp, cr. Mk too on rog
No ch Just meaty mid combo
^ Crouching and standing Rog?
crouching yeah
kind of tricky to set up too
I was doing horrible against punishing balrog’s stuff so I just tried practicing balrog punishes for the first time
Best I could do against his light dash straight was s.jab to c.hp
s.jab c.mk would not connect.
Against his ex dash smash I could do both
Other unsafe dash punches you can usually get cr.lk to sting or cr.mp to sting/hands
After blocking ultra 1, I could get dash up target combo. Can also get dash up cs.hp but target combo is easier.
As for strategies against Balrog, I just get bopped atm. lol
Rog is tough. I’ve found that poking with cr.lk is pretty good because it’s fast and has good range and then cancels into LP which is invulnerable to punches.
His hurtbox is wierd though. there’s barely anything below his waist while standing for combos.
u1 is awesome against balrog. wait for headbutt then stinger him back into it. if he downbacks, overhead him. his jump sucks, take him out for it. if he stand blocks then crmk xx RD!
he cant punish well spaced cr mk xx rd
st fp and st hk out range all his normals
dont know about you but i can stinger dash punches on reaction
slowly work your way up, go in with ex scramble mixups all day kid
standing jab xx hands. Different timing thank cr. mk xx hands but doable. Comparable damage and more importantly corner push/a knockdown.
dont forget balrog is free to cross ups, super easy to safejump. i died last night to cod fish who is a decent rog player i know from reddit, i would say he knows what hes doing, and it was only because i dropped a couple combos and i kept going for throws on my MP break mixup. if people are stand blocking that mixup they’ll walk backwards and out of range so its important to get crmk shit going. rog has a decent walk back speed. i nailed him on that overhead mixup into u1 i was talking about cause rogs just love to down back
Can anyone give me some help or tips for the Bison matchup? I really struggle with it.
Bison players are crappy just wait for them to jump/stomp/reverse and play at a range where scissors and slide will whiff and weave in and out of it and whiff punish.
When you get in keep safe pressure up with safejumps and jabs to not give up offensive momentum.
Also play u2.
What can U2 punish? Or is it just for the combo ending?
EX Psycho Crusher and teleport
Won’t you lose your charge if he uses EX Psycho Crusher?
man just use training mode for like 10 minutes.
Is that a macro
