Looking for Love: Ibuki General Discussion Thread

It gives you the same attack, but it’s difficult to make the kunai come out asap. The same reasoning as Cammy’s TKCS. Doable but your qcf has to be insanely quick.

Hmm coincidence. I happen to be playing some vanilla right now on my pc. lol at the terrible Sagats/Ryus. Getting pwnd by my D tier Sakura/Cammy.

According to those Scrubs, Sakura/Cammy are cheap.

I do a “shoryuken” motion starting with a relaxed :uf:
:uf:, very brief pause, :d: :df: :p:
It feels weird, but i noticed that i don’t have to press :f: to do the kunai, so i shortcut it to be able to do it quite low.

I’ve read in this forums that the :qcf::uf::p: motion is the best for the TK kunai, to use it as low as possible, but for some reason i can’t do it (i can do it with cammy, but not with ibuki).

Maybe the correct notation it is :qcf::uf::r::p:, i mean, with a :r: ending??

so anyone in here playing mahvel when it comes out? and what characters are you guys looking at?

me:

storm, chun cause they look staright broken and i suck at marvel.

then in no order Dante (ibuki players may LOVE this guy, he has like 40 specials or some shit)
arthur
phoenix
amaterasu (ammy) another character ibukis might like…
Maybe hulk (depends if hes decet in a doesnt have to play this nigga a year just to hang, kind of way.)
doom
wesker
spencer

others im waiting to play till i make a decision whether or not i like them.

SO WHO YALL PLAYIN?

-dime

I suck at marvel but didn’t really play it
I’m glad I’ll be around for the start of mvc3

I want an all girl team
I hope I could use Jill chun x23 but I don’t know if any of them are good assist chars
I should probably start reading up on the use of assist

i heard chun’s leg assist is like pyslocke assist aka really buff

So far I don’t really like anyone in the cast of MvC3 purely based off aesthetics. I probably just have to play it when it comes out tho.

I’m gonna play whatever team is top tier. Yeahhhhhhhh

That is, if I ever get the game. I’m def not paying $60 for it. $40 maybe.

No Hotaru, Athena, or Ibuki. I’ll pass. Besides, didn’t like TvC’s engine.
Actually, is Juggernaut in it? Loved that character.

I never really liked the MvC games. Then again, I have only been playing fighting games for a month and a half.

might have to do this as well, my brother is super hype for it so gonna get it pre-ordered tho.

holy fuck yeah those things are stupid. she basically juggles you about 4-8 times very slowly in an off the ground state if you were in the air or locks you down if you were on the ground… the power of the assist is how long it locks down for plus it seems to have ridicuous priority.

mvc3 is looking like all out broken fun. just watched a vid where an x-factored thor killed zero in like 5 hits… shit is ridiculous. and awesome.

-dime

At first i wanted x-23 in my team but tbh im reconsidering.

Phoenix looks awesome, chun assist does look godlike so im thinking either:

Phoenix/wesker/chun
or
phoenix/storm/chun

or perhaps get viper in there as she looks godlike, but i dont really want 2 super players on my team :<

Something I discovered trying to do TK Kunai’s if you do the tiger knee motion and then quickly move the stick to df then press p then the timing is pretty much perfect, instead of trying to guess when to hit the punch button after the tiger knee motion. My execution went from 5% to around 95% using this motion, and I was throwing Kunai’s immediately after the jump.

So the motion I was doing was:

:qcf::uf::f::df: :lp: or :mp: or :hp:

^^^ yes thats how akumas do it also. ive posted it a few times but people have bad memories. still dont see any use for tk kunai though… i can get them out just as fast with regular jumping.

-dime

I can’t. I can’t get it to come out fireball level with just regular jumping. I just can’t. I have found it to be useful for getting over fireballs and such. Haven’t experimented with much else though.

Maybe I’ll get used to this, since :ub::hcf::lp: may become a reversal Neckbreaker.

Wouldn’t that just be instant jump back kunai…?

Not if you do it while blocking. If you do the motion and it gets blocked half way in, it becomes reversal Neckbreaker. Only happened a couple of times, but it’s still bad. (Checked the reply too).

So I bought new parts for my SE yesterday from FocusAttack.com. I went all sanwa, as recommended by Dime.

I suspect my execution is going to go down to like 0 when I try to learn how to use this thing.
