Ibuki Q&A Thread: Ask simple questions here!

Hi there. Can you clarify more? I don’t think we understand what you mean. Are you doing the U1/raida? Or are you the one getting hit or blocking the U1/raida?

The LK Tsumuji link is character dependent. Not quite sure but I think it doesn’t work on small characters / weird hitboxes, e.g. Juri. LK Tsumuji is like Ibuki’s longest range poke with chip damage on block though.

@DJ:
Thanks for the reply again.

All the time at the moment. 250 stun everytime a neckbreaker hits and a possible chance for another cross up or kunai vortex after? Yeah I might as well try. Unless you hit the opponent while they are standing there really isn’t much else to do other than a few hits into neck break or tsumuji and neck break builds more stun.

Tyvm for the input; btw I’m tending to like ALOT the matchup vs Gief now, funny to some point due to Ibuki’s high advantage over him puahhuaa

does anyone find that people online with higher bp like (6,000+) are mashing in every string you do?

BP doesn’t matter. It’s all about PP. At least PP can actually go down if you lose.

I sometimes sense this too… I’m on a roll with Ibuki and putting pressure on the opponent then they sometimes shoryuken me in the face and/or pop me out of my string right after. Or sometimes its funny to bait them and see them miss a shoryuken.

Most of the people with high BP are just online grinders who don’t take the game seriously offline and learn the ins and outs of it.

yeah, you guys are right, i’m just salty about it.

edit: if you play like an asshole you’ll win against the online warriors, figures.

double edit: do not underestimate the power of constant neutral jumping and being ready to air throw, that shit rapes online

Ok i just picked up ibuki and have lost 20 matches in a row. So i am fairly new to her playing style and might have noobish questions. First of, what is this vortex everyone keeps talking about and where can I find a detail explanation of what it is?

i have two questions does the crossup kunai work just as well on a regular grab then doing a neckbreaker and i noticed one flaw in my ibuki style i let people easily jump in on me i try to use back mp as much as possible but i cant seem to know when to use it cuz most of the time its a 50/50 chance i get it to work and i can input her most of her anti airs to work

There is a whole multipage thread in this forum about very topic. Short answer: It’s the various methods of pressure you can apply on your opponents wake up.

hi there,

Sorry about this. I am doing raida after block from MGP most of the time but somehow it doesnt link or opponent is able to block it ?

Thanks

hey guys i was wondering what should u do after connecting a Df medium kick?

if it hit, keep going yout combos, block string
if it blocked, well what can you do? just wait until they do something

how do u fadc kazegirl i get do it on every move on the game nearly it just wont work on this move im usin the mk version if that makes a difference??

no this is not safe, mainly against mashers
I love doing it thought because I play a rather conservative buki so it’s a change from what the opponent has been accustomed to.

FADC the first hit of the kazekiri.

You can cross up kunai with a regular grab but I believe to do it off of a regular grab u must do it real low to the ground or off a regular jump. You won’t have to distance required to make an ambiguous super jump kunai. With Ibuki u need to learn a bunch of anti airs. b+MP is solid but there’s jump ins that can beat it depending on where they are spaced. Mix it up with air throws or jump forward HK. Neutral jump HK is pretty good too. If they are trying to cross you up and you are standing you can do close s.HK to stop them from crossing. df+MK is good for sliding under a jump in and punishing with a throw and if the opponent is low on health it has sick priority for AA purposes so u can use it to kill someone for jumping with no health. From max range it’s a decent anti air also. Far s.HK isn’t bad either. Anything that you’re not sure about just MK or HK command dash under.

it’s still too early for either PP or BP to matter yet. I fought a guile the other day who had 11k BP and i was like wtf I am so dead, then I proceeded to slaughter him with the Ibuki I’ve been playing for ONE DAY.

People dunno the matchups yet, or the characters. Too many people are trying out new characters, so they’re not exactly challenging opponents yet. Too many people cheat, and do that one round 30 second nonsense (which I never realize until the round started, and they’re fucking Honda)

question vs rufus messiah kick mesh
If I bait the messiah and blocked the first part of that move there is 4 options rufus can do from there

  1. lk which breaks focus attack
  2. mk i think this one is overhead so I can do focus attack or reversal dp or whatever
  3. hk which no one uses anyway
  4. nothing and thorow or dive kick mix up
    when 1, 2, and 4 used as a mix up, what’s my option to beat them all?
    1 and 2 is easy to block and punish but 4 gives a little trouble for me

would reversal raida beat 2 and 4?
