Laura General Thread: Who The Hell Is Sean?

I would actually like to see her hp bolt be turned into an srk motion. I’m still having problems reacting to jumps with a fireball motion haha

That’s your problem brah.

I’ve jumped onto the Laura train and just playing FT10s since ranked is a joke, I haven’t done it since 1500 lp. Only problem is there’s still characters I haven’t bumped into like FANG.

Yeah I was playing a guy in lounge yesterday and he kept getting empty jump low on me and I was like feels bad man.

Would it be too op if cr.lp combed to lp bolt? I don’t think so but what do I know

It really shouldn’t. Every other character can combo c.lk -> c.lp into damage or a knockdown with meter why not Laura? And while we’re at it make our command grab 5 frames and cancelable from normals

cr.lp isn’t a low anyways guys. Just use cr.mk if you need a low

If normals were cancellable into command grab v-reversal would be useless. You could just OS that all day.

We were saying combo cr.lk>cr.lp>lp bolt

All pipe dreams anyways, gotta work with what ya got!

I really need to work on my stun combos/punishes more. Some games I stun people every round I win, and then have a brain fart.

Lol, this happens to me too, and I have some nice stun combos in training mode…

OK guys, since people are having trouble with what Laura can do on knockdown besides meaty here are some tips…

After MP bolt charge or forward throw you are at even frames if you dash in afterwards so you can press a stand jab if you like, if your opponent is slow to react you can get a counter hit combo into CR.MP x bolt charge.

After any sunset wheel you cannot dash in, you’re at -4 so you can meaty St HK or LP bolt charge. If they’re sleeping you can catch them with a meaty ex ssw if they quick rise. HP bolt charge has the same options.

Back throw is where she shines, you’re +2 after a dash in so you get a meaty button or SSW which will beat 4 frame jabs because of priority.

Hope this helps guys.

To clarify do you mean regular dash or Avante?

He means regular forward dash. Forward dash is 17f. Avante is 21f.

Wth is 2LK -2 on block

After this post, I proceed to do shitty stun followup combos. It’s a habit from SF4, most of the cast needed to jump in.

I stunned a Karin on CC and reset and just did J.hp, cr mk xx CA. She had a pixel life left, I was like AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I ROBBED MYSELF OF A PERFECT.

This is me when I see that the opponent is using Chun Li:

My negativity has gotten out of hand, so I’ll try to turn that frown upside down. I’m working on a video where I’m compiling all of her current tech, and it includes some new meaty setups I’ve found. I think it’s good to have it all in one place so we can concentrate on new stuff rather than reiterating what is already known.

Hit 6200 league points with laura yesterday, and I gotta say, it’s really not as hard to win with her as these threads are implying. I don’t even think I’ve really been doing anything truly special. The only truly annoying matchup is chun, and even that isn’t that bad. All this complaining just reminds me of the abel forums until people started getting good with him.

I got to 4500LP so far. Kinda feel like I’ve hit a brick wall, though. I think I let certain characters abuse me too much, especially a Bison or Mika going absolutely HAM.

Would be interested in checking out a few of your matches to see if I can learn anything. I have a feeling some of the other top Laura players are a bit fraudulent if you get what I mean.

Including all of her tech in one video was way too much work to do in one go, so I did one containing, afaik, all her meaties on every knockdown for starters.

If I missed anything, let me know. I’ll edit the video later on to include other stuff, options after LP bolt etc.

edit: fuck. the backthrow one is wrong. It should be f.dash, st.LK and extended with st.HP, st.MP on no recovery. st.LP only works if you fuck up. reediting

edit2: there we go

Well my fighterid is IceEffect so look at them if you want, but like I said I don’t even feel like I’m doing anything that’s truly extraordinary
