Alright, I got through my first final today. Didn’t care for it at all, but at least I’m through it. Got two more left, and afterwards–possibly even before–the new Ultimate Thor threads’ll be up an’ runnin’. Vik, if it’s alright with you, could you send me that frame data between now and like a week from now? Already got the main thread pretty much typed up in Word.
I still have the frame data saved that I typed up for the thread I made. I can send that to you.
Yeah, that’d be great.
Glad you typed that up already if you didnt use all the Pretty :qcf: and :dp: or :s: notations I could do that for you. Also you MUST use this gif.
Does thor have any reliable blockstrings?
not exactly, all his normals are minus on block and the only ground specials that leave you at and advantage on block are mighty spark and mighty smash H, mighty spark whiffs against crouching characters and mighty smash H goes right over them because thor jumps so high so they both leave you open for an attack. That being said he does have some reliable ways around it, like doing cr.LM and if its blocked pause for a moment and cancel into mighty hurricane L for a tick throw. Or call an assist (preferably lockdown) after cr. LM then cancel into mighty smash H for a cross up.
Just keep in mind that im saying this based on thor’s old frame data, there might be some more option after he got buffed but i think the most we can hope for is mighty smash L being safe on block.
Hopefully that is the case. it seems to me thor’s only true problem is getting in, but even that isnt too much of a problem when put on point. lol i was inspired by ViktorKain’s post containing a vid with royal flush, so i hope thor turns out to be very viable, albeit slept on.
Now I feel I have done my job.
Yes and no he has character specific block strings you can end combos with mighty Spark L to be safe on block unless it is on some of the shorter cast members In the corner you can end anything with H mighty Smash and still be safe on block.
Yeah, I used all of the pretty SRK notations for motions and button inputs.
I’m just about done with everything. Typed up the match up, team building, and main thread. As soon as I’m done compiling all the combos and resets floating around, I’ll have everything posted. When it’s up, make sure you guys fill in some of the blanks I’ve left. I know I’m over looking a few things in certain cases, and that’s where the rest of you guys need to come in.
