Damn im getting bodied…seems like the stuff i work on in training mode isn’t playing off for me -___-. I played like 8 ranked matches and only won 1 …sad.
Well I just proved you can Ultra Yun’s EX Lunge on Reaction. Get at me Yuns.
You can also DP on reaction.
hp rekkas can punish ball (but really now who is going to do a blanka ball in AE), I really dont have a tough time with this match up, you can stop hop mixups with clk since its 3 frames. Other than not really being able to dive kick pressure him consistently is the only drawback of this match up for yang, but he can just about punish everything blanka can do.
Another thing I learned…U2 loses to Genei-Jin powered Shoulder…ugh…
EDIT: Also, been messing around with his cl.MK launcher for mixups, as I’m more of a mixup guy.
Two options after Jump Cancel instead of just Dive Kicking and doing whatever.
cl.MK xx JC, j.HK Get back down on the ground, and you can dash under on the other side, you know, basic stuff.
cl.MK xx JC, j.HP Now you get the same flip, but when you go for the dash, you remain on the same side instead of crossing under causing a nice fake crossup. Now, with smaller characters, you’ll have to delay the dash a bit, but I think it’s a nice technique personally.
U2 loses to everything during the roll. It has no hit invincibility.
Yeah U2 kinda sucks but is best choice imo against fireball characters.
Slash can’t punish ball unless they do fierce, and at that point you get a free walk up low forward xx slash instead.
Anyone else having luck using cr.lk, s.mp, cr.mk as a blockstring? Not the best, but it gets some CHs.
Yeah I copied that from Mago in some ranked matches. Leaves a 4 frame gap between cr.lk and cl.mp, good for delayed tech and people with 4+frame light kicks. Against jab mashers cr.lp, cl.mp leaves a 2 frame gap.
It’s pretty sexy. The gap between cl.mp and cr.mk is also 2 frames (which I assume you know, but posting to post it for those who don’t).
I also do s.lk xx light slash then crouching mk i get people with that one too. Hes a Frame trap monster!!!
Light slash (block), c.mk isn’t a frame trap. LP rekka leaves him at -2f on block and +1f on hit. Can’t really frame trap with that. :<
Well guys, I had some good sessions today. I had to go through a damn gauntlet of Yangs which meant a crap ton of Mirror Matches. I won damn near all of them. Yet, I also faced a lot of Codys…surprising, and those ranged from good for me to getting raped. That match turns from 0-60 within five seconds. Anyway, I think I’ve found my feel with Yang.
Strange I ran into mostly evil ryu and oni today. Only ran into two yuns and one yang.
Well I was running Endless, and almost every player at least had Cody as an alt…it’s like Vampire Savior where everyone has a secret Lord Rapter.
Alioune always has some amazing technology, he practically made cammy.
im actually following alioune, mago and flow on replay channel. alioune is fucking godlike.
What do you think the best follow up is if you happen to hit s.mp? Just go into the target combo? I don’t know much to do with that hit otherwise…
I usually do c.Forward xx Rekkas or FADC after 2nd rekka for typical stuff.
What are the frame traps and counter hit combos people are using? I’ve been doing s/c.jab, s.strong, c.forward xx Rekkas or s/c.jab, c.strong, c.short (CH only), Rekkas.
