spamming st. mk beats all jaguar kicks, even ex. it even beats jaguar tooth.
how the fuck do you deal with yun/yang and zangief please.
What problem are you having with the three? Yun is not the same as Yang, unless you just mean dive kicks.
Wooo I was challenged by that ibuki player who was whuppin my ass the other night and I won all 3 rounds (best of 5) cleanly as I was able to stuff his rushdown and whif punish some of his cr.mks that he does to harass and advance. He likes to fadc into range so he at a lot of st.mp’s that I was putting out there! Was nice, then I lost to a bison player who basically did the sme thing, except random ex crushers full screen were messing with me. Is he at frame advantage after you block a max distance ex crusher?
Also here’ s something for u guys to check out, abel is 0 after a blocked f.mk dash. But if he does a close st.hp it will always trade with our close st.mk. Our mk is 3 frames, his hp is 4, they’re both point blank so hitboxes ‘shouldn’t’ come into it.
Record abel doing forward mk comboes into his hp and then play it back. Its a one frame punish with throw and cr.lk, but st.mk can only trade. What’s going on?
First guess would be that the 1st active frame hitbox doesn’t reach abels hurtbox and that only the 2nd frame one can.
I think I have arrived to the bottom, I cannot beat anyone thats not a n00b or a bad player, whats worse I feel I am not improving at all. this never happened to me before when I played SF2, or Tekken3, Tag, Tekken 5. I mean I know the moves, combos, resets, and stuff but I just don`t use them at the right time. I kind think I am old for gaming (30)
I CANNOT FEEL THE GAME ANYMORE, GG.
Or maybe it’s just the character. You can know what is coming and not be able to stop it. I hve been playing at an offline gathering the last two weeks and I play a Rose player there who doesn’t let you zone (reflect and absorb), can pressure you endlessly with drill and followup normals but spaces everything so well that even if you kongo the normal you KNOW is coming they are outside of the hit range of the “aura”. If you demon flip he just backdashes. If you DF kick, you miss, if you throw, you miss, if you sweep, you get a hard knockdown but you recover so slowly he just focus backdashes your jump in.
Since it is a focus backdash you can’t option select so you have to just sweep with no confirmation to stop the backdash. Sometimes the sweep misses. If it lands one or twice he just blocks the next time and then he is on his feet and you’re back at a disadvantage.
I have literally become so frustrated with this matchup against a Rose who KNOWS what they are doing. I’m going to record this shit next time and post vids cause I need help.
Some guy behind be got all frustrated and was like stop hitting buttons! Don’t focus! I was like WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT ME TO DO STAY AND HERE AND GET CHIPPED OT DEATH!?!? I was like give me a fucking solution!! He had nothing to say. As frustrated as HE was, I was 100 times more frustrated since I tried everything and had no answer. Only thing I haven’t tried it standing light kick but I feel like that is going to too slow and I am just going to get frame trapped.
I have no answers for a good Rose.
The old man, oh god is the only character I like in SF.
Its really frustrating to get hit with something when u know is coming but u cannot do anything, or when u do HP Kongo versus a jump and it doesn`t work, makes me think in a DP that works all the time, why gouken got such a crappy kongo.
Anyway I am on a losing streak, for days, I wanna delete all I know and start from scratch, any dope?
Unfortunately, I feel the same. He is the only one I like.
Sadly, the only advice I can give you is to take a day off and just hit training and practice the situations that are getting you screwed or take the day off and don’t play. There are days I can go on streaks and not lose, other days I lose like that’s the point of the game. I’ve been fluctuating between 2500 PP and 1500 PP. Pretty sad.
It’s sad when Gouken cant jump or parry vs your character at all.
I’ve just about had it with this shitty character…Gouken is so ass.
*hits training mode
I think training mode doesn`t help me. is something deeper.
well do what i did… dont play for about a month o 2… im off since february, and then AE came out… and i did kind of “well” against some people…
the matches i didn’t played well are some i didnt see too much… as for 3 punch kongo i did well, air parry ok, and EX hurricane Kick awesome…
what i been doing??? seeing videos of top players and flying around in the forums, that really help me!!!
Switch to the dark side for a while!!! It’s gonna be hella fun comboing to anything from jab or lk… plus I need a few heads to discuss Oni technology.
Never posted in this thread so ill let my frustration out!!
Sick of not having overhead dive kick anymore!
Sick of tastu’s wiffing on crouchers!
Sick of air parry being not that useful at times.
Sick of Kongo nerf fucking me up
Sick of no jab string hitconfirm to lp palm
Sick of horrible backdash
Sick of people complaining about backthrow to ultra
Can’t think of anything else. Love playing gouken otherwise and will keep doing so
looooool that’s hilarious
From the Gootecks guide:
Once your opponent realizes that his attacks are doing no damage,
he’s going to try and throw you, but you’re ready for that right?! You can tech
throws with your own throw or, depending on the distance, use crouching
Light Punch (LP) or Light Kick (LK) to push him away.
Too bad that with gouken when you uso LP or LK to prevent a throw u still get thrown since gouken Light attacks sux.
U can even heard them and still getting thrown, which leads to tech but then again u are on def which is bad.
If I found the guy that decided on the balance on this game I would give him a beating that he would never forget.
I think I’ll have to take you up on that.
