I did the same thing again. The curse of B rank. The climb is on. If I win, I win. If I lose, I lose.
Well, on the bright side, I get to ease back while I’m in no mans land and learn my more troublesome match ups without the pressure. I’ll get some nice experience for the next time.
so, the new characters, their hitbox is all wonky cause shit just don’t work the same on them. they all have a bunch of specials and other shit that’s just totally safe on block, leads into ultra, breaks armor and other stuff… seriously, how am I suppose to deal with this?
I just lost to a decapre like 100X in a row who just spammed a bunch of safe shit over and over again that I could do absolutely NOTHING about!
poison’s rekka pressure is ridiculous, her fire balls are ridiculous, and she breaks focus like nobody’s business.
nothing works well on elena…
hugo, why the hell didn’t they fix that dizzy animation???
tested it! I couldn’t punish lp rapid dagger and ex rapid dagger. what are these on block, maybe I’m doing it wrong? that is the move that my opponent kept spamming, how do you beat that?
I could have punished the ex scramble break though!
I’m doing very poorly for my first day playing Ultra seriously. Ranked is such a clusterfuck these days.
Went 51-49 for my first 100 games,went up from 0 to 1500 then lost 1000pts in an hour. Sitting at 500ish PP depress me so much, it’s crazy. I’m better than that Xx
Can’t punish her dagger thing, she ends up too far away for our F.LP to hit. Most of them seem to like to do her uppercut move afterwards, can try to f.lk kara throw to catch that since iirc her DPs are only invuln to specific things (one for projectile, one for throw, one for strikes).
I dunno, if you do nothing she can just keep doing it, if you try to do something she does uppercut. I still need to go into training mode for her and Elena. Figure stuff out.
you’re best bet is to either read the spam with a raw redfocus since i dont think it will armor break even if its reversal timing (or ?) and crumple her, or be godlike and read it with ex tsurugi.
Actually can you f.lk kara ex karakusa after her daggers finish? might also be an option
Is anyone else still having problems connecting EX Fukiage in the Karakusa>s.HP>Ex-Fukiage combo?
It seems every online match I end up dropping it because it’s saying I’ve pushed the punch buttons while I’m hitting down. I’m starting to become skeptical about this, because I’ve been doing it fine in training mode every day. I’ve even gotten mad enough to practice it with my eyes closed. It works fine offline for the most part.
Sometimes I wonder if this is the effect of never really playing a character with a more effective uppercut.
It’s weird to adapt to.
I usually do karakusa, then put my stick at neutral, press HP, then do the DP motion really quick.
It’s weird, because we’re probably the only character I know of that need to combo into a DP motion from a proper neutral normal. Most other can go forward at thee same time they do the normal then finish the motion.
Well, I made use on the lag simulation. I put my Ex-Fukiage problem to the test, and as I thought, as soon as I turn on a few frames of lag, the combo does not work for me. I can get it to come out about 30% of the time. I do the same motion after turning the lag off and all is well again.
Perhaps playing on pad is the problem. The way I do Ex moves is by using the L1 button. Every now and then, this does end up turning my s.HP> EX Hayate into c.mp. So I can imagine it may be playing a similar trick on the inputs when lag is a factor during s.HP>EX Fukiage.
I have the exact opposite problem. I perform EX Fuki mostly by pressing RB + X but many times it registers the Bumper input a split second faster and gives me HP Fuki instead. Bluh.
so I have also been having problems with ex fuki online, but my problem is FFS ex fuki that I keep messing up. everytime I try it, regular fuki just keeps coming out, I’m about to throw my stick at something!
I can’t believe how much I can choke in matches against good players. ._.
I’m so mad at myself for losing matches where I have half life leads.
Had two sessions against good players, played 20 ish games per session. Could have gone 10-10 or better but ended up losing like 13 to 7 and stuff because of it. Sigh
I’m the opposite. I thrive against good players. It’s the idiot trolls that I don’t like. If you aren’t thinking it becomes really hard for me to win because my gameplay revolves around understanding what the opponent is trying to do.
I think I’ll stick to offline/endless battle Makoto and Ranked battle Balrog. It will help my sanity. I thing she might be the funniest and rewarding character to play (with Hugo), but my girlfriend is getting tired of hearing me yelling " why did he do that, that doesn’t make sense ! "
Played Ultra for the first time in…2-3 weeks. Maaaaaan, I need to keep playing. Between being sick and Destiny I just haven’t played. My Ken isn’t that great though.
