:bluu: We need to play each other.
Buk claimed the same thing at some point lol, then ikeith or someone reacted in much the same way Luigi-Bo just did. Too funny. That reminds me; I still use a trick I stole from a match of buktooth playing maki.
Nice. Wiki edits will be coming this Winter break.:tup:
Any vids still around of Buktooth using Maki?
I didn’t know he played Maki in the first place.
it was a looong time ago and and (I just looked) I don’t have the videos anymore. I’m PRETTY sure that one of them was against Legendary Goku, possibly on XBL… I can’t remember to well.
It was against me and it was in an offline match in Austin. He hit me with both supers. 
As far as tricks with her goes I think he posted up the two he uses most often.
-
Mid screen punch throw, immediately do qcb rh~mk (or you can do mk mk, but I like to piano it) to set up deep cross up. Due to human error it can sometimes not cross up.
-
Punch throw in corner, jump forward and then qcb mk off the wall at the very last second. Crosses up. I’ve never had this blocked.
Thats all I can remember. I actually love using Maki as I feel her normals are really effective, but I can’t combo into super consistantly and my playstyle with her is often high risk.
I remember that match… I think you were playing P chunli.
c.jap s.lk to Level 3 is a must… Big damage.:annoy:
I hate missing that combo. Her level 3 kick super really has to be mashed.
If you mash too early It wont combo… Mash too late and it gets blocked… I pray they forget to block the last hit/overhead. lol
Any tips on playing against a turtling C-Vega? He’ll basically poke me till I’m raged (K-Groove) and run away with his gay ass jumps. I don’t have any problems at all vs Sagat and he usually does the same thing with his Blanka as he does with Vega but I don’t have as much trouble with him.
s.mp and s.mk help lots against Vega’s pokes.
I played him a few times today again today and beat him every time :tup: I just gotta learn to be more patient with her and move in at the right time.
IS vega Jumpin on you?
Are you using your guard BAR?
Dont wiff anything. Walk
Please AA vega, and watch for slides. Look out for Jumping straigh up. USE KKK C.Hp and Standing RH.
Dont attack if you have more life.
just Hang around,
I just super jump and get the same result, am I missing something
Also, my two greatest Maki moments:
-
I landed her lp,mp,c.lk into level 3 kick super IN MATCH!
-
I jd’s all of Sagat’s Tiger Raid and got a reversal 720.:tup:
I’ve only done both of those once and boy did I feel like a pimp!
I’d love to see this haha. Your avatar is dope btw.
I’m gonna go try what Legendary Gokou said.
If your cross-up is blocked, you can do mp, qcf+hk~mk or tick throw. Also after ker kick throw, I sometimes use qcf+hk~mk to jump over them to try and mess up any reversal attempts.
This and the walk thing is actually really really helpful. I’ll be doing that from now on.
BUT let’s say I do have more life and my opponent is hmm… lets see… A-Freaking-Bison and he’s sitting in the corner charging his meter what should I be doing?
Actually I love fighting Maki vs. A-Sak baiting her CC’s out of her. I don’t think I’ve even been sho’d on Maki… A-Bison on the other hand is way more difficult to fight and he has his ridiculous PTF setups that I always been to get hit by no matter what.
I love using this trick. If I don’t mess up it hits like 99% of the time. Still getting used to doing the second one…
Also is there a difference between what kick you use for Maki’s Cmd runs?
Walk up to A Bison… and punish what ever moves he wiffs.
use s.lk s.mk s.fp c.hk.
Build your dam self… C.mp a is good to charge meter with Maki.
Is A-Maki worth using? I was using K- Maki but quit my K team for a number of reasons. Now I wanna take a whack at using her in A.
First, what’s her order of best grooves? I’ve never seen anyone use her in A before, just various CC’s on Youtube and such.
Second, what should I be doing with her meter? For now I’m playing keep away and building meter till I’m full, then try to get in or bait an anti air CC and repeat. Should I be doing level 1 supers/AC’s at all? And on that note, what order should I put her in on my team?
i think you can run from sak pretty well. And the corner might be makis best bet.
some nice wakeup kkk / 720 XX can save you. I say that maki suck on ground game against sak but that saks jump isnt good enought to keep maki cornered.
If you run , use kkk to get your self out of some bad situations then you can get your meter up to change the game.
I use A maki, and Im starting to find more situations to activate, her max cc does 6000 - 5000 so its not too bad
