Not that I can’t make up my own shit (which I did,) but I’m getting into Faust, anyone know some good shit with him?
as always, dustloop dot com for info
but for Faust-
K and 6P are your primary anti-airs. 2K works against some jump-ins, there are other weird things you can do here and there.
2P, f.S, 2H, and j2K FDC jH are your primary pokes
He doesn’t really have any good low options now that the first hit of his 2K isn’t a low. So focus more on poking the other guy into combos or doing frametrap/throw mixups instead of looking for high/lows. Though j2K FDC jK is still a really good overhead.
Basic gameplan with Faust is to control the ground with your pokes, comboing off those pokes when possible- either to 2D JC headbomb or pogo -> GMW for knockdown and pressure. Use items to take up space and generally add distractions. Anti-air people either with K or 6P, if you get a hit with those then do the basic air combo (jK JC djK > S > H, or just jK > S > H in some situations). Keep people from superjumping and coming in from on top of you by jumping with them and hitting them with jH while they’re still far out.
Fullscreen scalpel pull is okay against some characters, it’s fairly safe at that range and it has a pretty good reward on hit. Get the justframe fireslap timing down and you either get an air combo or a knockdown into setup (Japanese players I saw were doing his item super off it)
Fairly basic gameplan really. Just know your normals and basic combos and get all that down. That’s really the most important thing with Faust. After that you can start maximizing damage with SJI combos and stuff I guess.
Who are the best Japanese players for each character in the game? I’m seeking out pro matches for a lot of them. From what I’ve watched:
Order Sol - kaqn
Venom - nanasi (no one compares to this guy it seems)
Chipp - sekido?
ABA - Dio
Potemkin - not sure but it seems the best I’ve seen is someone named kain
Eddie - Ogawa, someone named SHADOW also seems to be very good but Ogawa is better
I’m mainly in search of Anji, Slayer and Millia.
Daigo’s pretty good with Sol…
nah daigos sucks now at gg…top sols are hrk isa and pc I think, probably more I can’t rember
pc is dope
