I see dead people: Hsien-Ko Video Thread

Y U No use Hsien Ko on top against Zero :frowning: he’s free in that match up without Doom’s missiles

But Zero is still a doodyhead even without missiles. One touch anywhere and you’re gone.

Those were some sick airgrab reads/ “followups,” LL.ND. Even without a true way to follow up her airgrab predicting the tech and mixing up still seems to work.

with or with out an assist zero is a killing machine. your only hope is that you get him first or he drops the combo and find a way to get him before he gets u again.

ll.nd at 45:25 after j.S do u immediately jump or do an attack then jump
when i do a jump loop with my characters including hsien-ko its by complete accident and i have no idea how i did it
my fingers just move on their own on those moments lol

I meant that Zero is still a nightmare even without missiles to back him up. One touch and Hsien-Ko (or anyone, really) is gone in theory, unless he drops of course.

It’s an even match. I feel her neutral game against zero is better than chris in that she can keep him out better. The problem is that she has trouble combo’ing/converting off small characters in general and doesn’t have that killing power so many other characters have. Still, I think I will use her first now in that match-up.

immediately jump then j.LMH(1-3hits, must eyeball their height here before chaining into S)S.

I guess Gong does put more pressure on Zero. Do any of her normals really rival or match his (j.:h:, perhaps)?

Thanks LL.ND!!! Like what I’ve said before, I’ve been following your Hsien Ko for a while now. Don’t know why I enjoy watching her so much. One thing that annoys me is how easily Pendulum Swing gets hit. Back in Darkstalker, Hsien Ko can swing pretty freely without getting hit and interrupted. It seems like anything in umvc3 (even a simple normal hit) can hit Hsien Ko out of it. :frowning:

And I also like how you use the ground sword super more often to get close to the opponent. Keep up the great work!

PS: Oh shit, you beat Infrit? Damn. That match is so good. I truly enjoy watching your Hsien Ko and Chris.

Not my video, but this was posted as a response to the Wesker Must Die contest:

0:07 looks funny in how it pans back up to her as the Drones hit.

A little surprised pendulum didn’t mess up the scaling too much.

Might as well post this here.

Check out this guy’s Doom/Lei-Lei/Strider:

Hsien-ko the anti-Vergil? Haha, I dunno bout that.

Golden Armor doesn’t care about nothin! :smiley:

True, I guess Gold Armor isn’t a bad choice against Swords. They last almost the same amount of time so Vergil can’t really do anything unless she gets grabbed.

The biggest problem for Anchor Hsien-ko is when people take to the skies and run the clock. Like Magneto. Ugh…

True. You can activate gold armor on reaction to swords being activated, then punish any pre-emptive teleport cross-up attempts.

As far as being an anti-Vergil… I love Hsien Ko as much as the next necrophiliac, but only fools would forget or underestimate gold armor more than once. No one will forget getting bodies by the worst character in the game because they forgot what Rimoukon does.

Edit: as with the above poster let me echo how impotent Hsien Ko is against a highly mobile character, especially one with flight. Hsien Ko can’t convert stray hits in the air into punishing combos, and she can’t land anything after an air grab.

Strider really seems like a great partner for Hsien-ko and vice versa. While Strider keeps them grounded, Hsien-ko can just armor up and take care of business.

Yeah, I suppose if any kind of assist would benefit her the most it would be some kind of lockdown assist. Hsien Ko has all of her best options available when both she and her opponent are grounded.

So it looks like Strider and Doom are the best partners for Hsien-ko because of missiles and Vajra. Huh.

Hsienko(sempubu)/ Dr Doom(missiles)/ Skrull(orbital grudge) is the best hsienko team :3

On the upside, Hsien-ko does a good job of running out the clock or X-factor time with her air actions and her air dash.
