Looking for Love: Ibuki General Discussion Thread

So, a question. I fooled around with Ibuki today, and she felt like a good character for me to pick up (I liked her speed and mobility. It’s a universe of difference playing her and Hakan). I am however feeling a bit overwhelmed as to where I should start with her, partly because of the mind-boggling number of combos (both regular and target) she has. What Ibuki basics should I practice, and what BnB combos should I know and work on?

Some other newbie questions:
-How do you do a super jump cancel? (I know how to superjump, but I’m not sure what SJCs are)

On a semi-related note, I was practicing the vortex earlier and wasn’t sure when I was executing it properly. Should I have my training dummy set to autoblock, and how can I tell if the vortex was executed properly?

^ start here: http://shoryuken.com/f336/ques-answer-thread-6-21-update-dont-make-one-question-topics-plz-234218/

To practice the vortex, record yourself doing it, and then playback and try to block, reversal, etc.

So I kind of like discovered a couple of things like two seconds ago abut Ibukis TC4 (lp mp hp)

-----First off you can frame trap with MK with it. It’s awesome.
-----You can combo into TC5 after. Yup,
-----You can fucking combo TC4 to LP to MK to whatever you want

Not that thats exciting or a great discovery or anything…

^ TC4 > st.lp > st.mk was known for a while.

Also, nerdjosh is in the finals of project failure, just beat a cammy in the semi finals. I think he’s up against min. Here’s the link for those who wish to watch. He might pick sagat though.

Edit: Meh, he chose sim and guile.

Fail. Im dumb.

lol

Does anyone else feel Ibuki’s 1 framers are easy? Its cake in Training but online I’m not even gonna attempt.

they seem to not be THAT difficult but I do find the tsumuji loop difficult to hit consistently…although I have been working on zoning/spacing more than combos lately. maybe i just need to grind it out more

cr.lk,cr.lp is easy as are:

cr.lp,cr.hk

cr.lp,st.mk

cr.lp,st.hk

the hard ones for me are the loops from lk tsumuji.

Great video to watch to get an idea of how the Rog match up should be played.

This is actually character specific. Actually more character specific on which characters it doesn’t work on. Definitely doesn’t work on Cammy.

In other news, at the Wallcade tourney I went to today, I only saw 2 people besides myself playing Ibuki. And they weren’t very good. Well not good in terms of tourney material. One guy had decent knowledge of fundamentals but was relying on vortex to do most of the damage for him. And it seemed to work out quite well, as nobody in this tourney seemed to know how to FA out or dping out if it’s a mistimed vortex. I played him best of 3 and won 2-1. He didn’t have anything on once I shut down his vortex. The one set I lost I blame on the TV not having sound, making it more difficult for me to time my FA correctly.

Also lol this same guy made some player salty after convincingly (almost double perfects) beat his bad Viper. He had no idea how to get out of the vortex and the Ibuki guy basically vortexed him to death every round. Pretty lolsy.

^ on which characters does and doesn’t the work and how many frames is the link?

I have yet to mess with this link

2 frame link. I dunno which other characters it doesn’t work on. I’m assuming it’s small characters, like Cammy and Juri, which even tsumuji loops don’t work on.

Hmm…this may or may not be the best place to ask, but I’d like to cosplay as Ibuki(again, this time MUCH better), and may need some help getting the actual outfit.

Now after I get said outfit, I can customize it to my liking. Just…I’d like to know where to get the outfit from. If anyone can help, thanks!

Search your nearest costume store for a ninja costume?

That may work…none the less…my Ibuki is pretty bad. I think I may show up here more often

I vote we make some sort of Ibuki training regimen. Or at least some sort of thorough Ibuki guide. Where was that discussion anyways?

Wasn’t even a discussion. You just mention’d it to teef and that was pretty much the end of it. I’m all for it not like I have anything better to do tho you should probably explain your vision to have a better picture of what you have in mind exactly

Something like Djb’s guide to Cammy. But more thorough/indepth and Super version.

Sure am in Mingo…i can help with wutever, tell me wut to write and i will right it down and send u a copy in a PM. i just want it to be professional (my english sometimes sucks).
we can like copy the important stuff, add pieces that werent mentioned and gather it all and make one solid thread bout it…though i guess the more the helping hand the better

if u wanted i can write bout her Anti-Air, all her loops and in general every possible comp + any of the weird stuff that i did in my vids (like the ex kunai into ultra, or like wut moves to use to evade stuff like f+mk, her slide…etc)

combo idea

can sum1 try a new combo for me plz? TC4, s.lp, s.mk, sjc hp kunai. if it works this may lead to infinite due to spacing or maybe im jus being idealistic… let me know plz also try with loop plz
