Looking for Love: Ibuki General Discussion Thread

Can you explain that?It doesn’t make any sense.

Yeah I’m pretty sure TC3 still works. Yesterday I was using (kind of) the same crossup safejump option select EX kazegiri by motempest on Bipson.

Also, DontJump must be trolling again. Listing Ibuki’s AE changes and suddenly saying the Boxer/Chun matchups are in Ibuki’s favor now is just lol. Ibuki may now have a 5f st.MK, but that doesn’t mean she can compete midrange against these footsie beasts.

You are completely right. Sorry about that. Also i wanted to post it as a question. I dont know why I made my sentence the way I did lol.

Now i noticed that he contradicts himself in a post in the previous page saying that “Ibuki is definitely not bad…but she is worse” and in a post in tis page says"It sucks she got nerfed for damage guys…but i dont think shes worse actually."Hmm probably DontJump does troll again,or something groundbreaking happened.lol

Yang is all about launchers (and his Hai Hoi). Ibuki was all about launchers in 3S, and Sakura was launchers in Vanilla. That’s what I’m referring to.

EDIT: <3 how many people I get with cr.HK xx st.HK HJ HK CD f+MK or cr.LK TC4. Being able to punish certain moves with a mix-up is amazing.

OMG CLAKEY!!! beat dat nigga sako! YEAH HYPE!!!

(ahem)

sako links against 801 striders abel were like… … …

no words.

but still… clakeys focus dash/slide mixup at neutral is owning people up… ive loved that mixup forever, but i never really got it working against higher level players once they got used to it… i guess it was just me being to predictable perhaps.

Sako loses to a Rufus again… I get the feeling the Rufus matchup is his worst matchup.

Umm, who the fuck are you and what’s your problem? I’ve said she’s ass, I still think she’s ass. That’s my oppinion. Who the fuck are you besides some random online that agrees with retarded shit. I’m not some weeaboo kawaii desu faggot that jacks off to Ibuki Hentai, sorry.

I don’t care who anyone plays, and I’m not trying to get anyone to switch. 99% of the people that use Ibuki are terrible anyways, that only helps me. I actually provide info, legit input, and axetually go to tournaments and majors (hi, I’m at CEO and the high rollers money match room that you’ll prolly never see in your life says hi,what’s good).

Sorry I’m not some pussy bitch that is afraid to speak his mind on a message board. If you actually knew me in person you would know how much I actually help people that actually want to learn.

Anyways, I’m actually pretty pissed about my performance at CEO. I lost to some Chun that honestly wasn’t really that good cause the monitor had no sound and that bothers the shit out of me. I came all the way back to losers sem where I lost to Yipes 2-1 in the last round ;(. I didn’t catch on till too late but he later told me he was doing lk devils reverse on reaction to kunai votex to force juggle. He also told me that the match up is a little better for Ibuki since his scissor can’t lock her down as good anymore.

I’m actually pretty pissed I left my Camera at home. After losing to that Chun I went on a rampage and murdered everyone. I am also doing pretty damn good at money matches so far.

I’m actually thinking about sticking with her for a bit more, but I’m doing some reality checks. Watching Sako play is actually the bigest eye opener ever. My fundamentals are just plain out ass, I need to step that shit up. I’m also going to be playing without sound at home since that always rapes my in tournament.

Oh ya, anyone that says Yun is not broken as shit is an idiot, straight up. My friend actually learned Yun in about an hour and almost made it to top 16.

Calm down dude…I have nothing against you.I was just saying that you wouldn’t be able to play competitively with an ass character.What exactly didn’t you understand?You can believe what you want.I’m not going to change your point of view.I haven’t seen the whole stream but didn’t clakey make it in the top 8 with that ass character…again?Also i never claimed to be somebody and no, i’m not some random online.I’m from europe and the scene here is not as big as in japan and us and you are lucky that you can attend all those major tourneys.

You guys need to watch Iyo play at the Arcades and realize that Ibuki’s down-sides aren’t all that important when it comes to solid play…

lolwat you played a tourney match on a setup without sound? That shit shouldn’t have even counted, or at the very least, you should have refused to play on such a setup. There’s no need to be training at home without sound, when you should be playing matches on standard setups with video + audio.

The new thing now is to have everything on Evo-like monitors. Most of the time the sound is so low and the venue is so louud that’s its impossible to hear. This one just had no sound.

This place has like 70 setups though so I guess its just something I have to deal with. A lot of my friends have switched to just playing with headphones on. I’m transitioning ok but I’m having a hard time hitting jab after lk wipe since I use to go by sound lol.

Umm so are we gonna get any ae matchup stuff going or is everybody gonna argue or complain with eachother honestly I don’t even know why some ppl respond to the stupid stuff others say who cares who thinks wat about a character or another person online whom you’ve never met and live in a whole other state or country they don’t know u and u don’t know them it’s not like u can find them and beat them up so let that stuff go u will save time and energy… With that out the way I maybe number 3 ibuki right now on psn but I sure as hell don’t play like because im struggling for that win against ppl who turtle and poke with better normals then constantly jump away or neutral jump after two jabs and shit basically I loose to lame play except dhalshim he is so what you guys say “free” to me now. My hardest matchups are yun constant dive kicking in block strings anti air is hard and sometimes trade wtf viper: I feel she can spam for free and be safe on a air bks and ground pound especially ex. Guile I just need some good advice getting in on him. Punishes for Balrog cuz st mk isnt doing the job for me. And a good safe jump for yun I try to crlp jmk after neckbreaker which sometimes works and I did one on a balrog that did a ex dash and I jumped in with fp and it fked his direction up but I don’t remember the timing so if anybody has some advice or new knowledge let’s get that matchup thread going

This is the general discussion thread, not the matchup thread.

Bringing up being the #3 ranked Ibuki on PSN a couple days after launch, and with so many majors this weekend is about as impressive as saying you’re the fastest kid at fat camp.

On that hand, as soon as I get back home I’ll be farming the shit out of Xbox Live lol.

More like the complain and trash talk thread and I know being number 3 doesn’t mean much in fact idc about that but I brought it up because even when ur at the top no matter how long the game has been out u still have to win to get there but I’m not playing like a winning ibuki should u understand the connection now or does that fly over your head? And since some ppl like to be smart ur right I’ll post in the matchup thread.

Well,online rankings don’t matter at all,except if you can back it up with offline and/or tournament results.There are so many scrubs online who mash dp or jhk>crhk is their go to combo ,spam shit,etc.Those people don’t stand a chance offline.I’ve watched some replays of some ibukis back in the ssf4 days that were A ranked and stuff and the only way they were winning is by doing tc6 snd tc8 resets.lol.This sucks

whats with all the negativity energy in here? every time i come through, the latest discussion is always about why ibuki sucks… do you need rationalization for losing? plus these little forum rivalries are getting silly… its well established that ibukis not top tier, but if you have a good read on your opponent shes got the tools to succeed… ive been having more fun since ae came out than the whole time i played super…
alls im saying is lets all get our inner game on point, keep this thing going constructive and hey we might make some discoveries and bump ibuki up a couple slots… lets get some positive shit going!!

I can’t speak for anyone else, but even with the very high win rate in AE with Ibuki, I’m one of the people who posted she “sucks”. All while having a very large losing streak with Yun.

I guess I never had a real reason for posting, just jotting down my thoughts.

That’s exactly what I’m talking about
