Hsien getting some reps at WNF is a beatiful thing. Maybe she can get pulled up outta the basement yet.
ll.nd did some pretty sweet stuff, just a shame the damage of the combos isn’t really proportionate to the difficulty
When I saw LLND go for gong loops in the corner off of his aerial exchange on Thor I was screaming NOOOOOOOOOO!
I can’t count the number of times I’ve whiffed those and have it cost me a combo or a kill that would have been otherwise guaranteed. The risk paid off though in the end. Good stuff.
New combo video, this time from Japan:
Kind of sad that she has to burn five meters just to do good damage, but hey, if we can see the more practical stuff used well at EVO…
Wow using assist and gong to stop the ground bounce so she can do another Tenraiha, gotta try that out :o
Brilliant.
Yeah, I thought using the Gong in this way was interesting. Surprised we hadn’t thought of it before.
You know, a lot of these videos exploring the underused characters are from Japan. I think those guys have some good stuff up their sleeves.
Heheh… up their sleeves. How fitting.
I saw what you did there.</Chuck Green> That was totally an intentional pun, yes?
Basically, Hsien-Ko can eat ALL your meter in one combo, she’s turned out to be a meter hungry character.
This new Hsien-Ko technology is awesome, but it shouldn’t overshadow all the fundamentally bad aspects of her. Can’t let ourselves get too excited over one new find.
Few matches from revelations archives. Making use of the recent hsien-ko tech and some rush too!

Thanks for posting your matches. Nice use of the new Gong > Tenrai Ha > Gong > Tenrai Ha > etc. tech agains that Wesker. She just feels so… right… in XF. Not like she’s X-Factored and comeback-powerful, but like she’s where she’s supposed to be. But whatever.
Also, nice use of the Tenrai Ha balls to catch that Taskmaster as he’s falling. Never thought of that.
Are you competing there tonight? If so, good luck! Make our dead girl proud.
WNF is back for the remaining weeks leading up to evo. Dunno if these’ll be on youtube but here are the archives from last night:

[LEFT]OMG last second air throw XD I’d have hugged you if I was there too XD[/LEFT]
Oh man, those first two matches were so great, especially the last-second finisher with Hsien-Ko! Looks like Disorder’s been studying your Chris, heheh.
You did pretty well against Clock too. You’re starting to gain a fanbase around various forums. Keep up the good work. I think you could take WNF one of these days.
some Hsien-ko action from me and airtola. Enjoy!
Nice matches! I smiled so hard when Phoenix died with just a pixel of meter to go to Lv.5. And of course, hype clutch KO’s against Task and Phoenix with H-Ko. Good stuff from Airtola too.
I’ve been using Hsien-Ko on my team since game release{or at least as soon as I unlocked her, I had no idea she was in the game before that.} I got the game for Zero, was surprised to find Thor and Hsien-Ko in it, been using them since then, and now I’ve gotten good enough to put dents in other teams at the least.
Here’s some gameplay with some good Hsien-Ko action. She always seems to be the last one standing on my team for some reason.
The best matches always happen when the camera isn’t on. :{

Not bad but there are somehings you can do to make your team a bit more effective. I use Task, Hsien ko and Shuma and I always have Task on point becauase he’s my best bet at building meter and doing damage. So i’ll give you some tips based on my experience.
Put Zero first. He has all the tools necessary to demolish many teams and is an excellent meter builder. I love Hsien Ko but she is just too slow for point unless you have a team based soley on defense and your using her for armor so you might as well put Zero first.
If your going for Gold Armor with Hsien Ko it’s best to DHC into it and not out. Combo Zero into Hsien Ko’s Gold Armor when you have at least two level 2 bars. If you really want to be nasty you could build to level 3 and combo Zero into his Shadows, Hsien Ko into her Armor and Thor into his Hyper Combo and now you have two nasty assist to help Thor. Either way DHCing into Hsien Ko’s gold armor is your best bet, I never agreed with doing a naked Gold Armor it’s too predictable and unsafe.
Other than that just work on not dropping your combos and don’t over do it if you just need that last hit like in the Pheonix match. Study some Zero combos his potetial is much higher than what you’ve shown. Peace.
