You guys play very well! Just saw a couple of your other matches on YouTube citiofbrass, you play the matchups well.
Question, you guys go for Kara Kara a lot after st jab, wouldn’t hk or mk Kara work considering the distance and the added start up of Kara Kara or is there some other reason you guys use this?
^ well im not sure about tinchi but i only do hk karakusa
It depends on what I am trying to make my opponent react to. Like if you do the kara karakusa they think its a dash when its not. Sometimes I just go for MP let it hit and karakusa no kara because they think a combo is going to happen. Cr.lpx2 leads into a bunch of cheap strings and traps plus cr.lpx2 gets them out of karakusa range depending on the character.
That was too good to be true until I saw that it loses to throw and crouch jab
Still, very useful to put a stop to headbutt happy balrogs.
1:19-1:32 Only in mirrors I feel what I’m going to give on my opponents,that’s why every Makoto player HATE mirrors 
Risky,very risky.
Good against headbutts and other stuff,but I’m gonna use this only if I know my opponent isn’t a cr.lp’s lover. That mp Oroshi isn’t meaty,maybe we can use st.mp against Rog lp’s. I’m gonna test it tomorrow in lab.
Most unsafe play I’ve seen in a while.
Maybe these guys play each other a lot? I know I’ll do crazier shit than normal when I’m playing someone I’m familiar with.
my vs a cody player. he doesnt really know the match up it seems.
You can punish both tornado and overhead in guard. Nice Makoto.
There are 5 fights vs makoto in this video.
Isn’t that simple get out from Yun dive pressure. One whiffed normal and is in. Keep offense on Yun is the best way to defend against him,his only way to get out from Makoto is DK. Stay away from Yun means leave him store meter for free (if we don’t have an EX bar),upclose he have a plethora of options to get over Mak’s defense. The st.throw-jump forward- lk dive kick setup is too dangerous on us,its safe and he can feint the dive and land behind Makoto and starts combos from cr.lk. IMO the only way against Yun take the offense before him and try to finish him asap.
Haitani against Kazunoko at 17:50. You can see a rare Daigo vs Haitani at 17:20 too.
That match against Daigo was nice.
Haitani plays so simple sometimes.
No fancy kara, no complicated meaty setups, not really any hayate cancels, just straight good play.
OMG I can’t take it no more someone help me with Guy! I can’t seem to get her 4f safe jump down against his ex hurricane kick?
I’m assuming you’re having trouble online? Unfortunately, there’s no real fix for lag. Just try and keep your inputs as tight as possible. Thankfully, the b+throw version stays solid since the execution is so simple. It’s the EX-Oroshi one that’s a complete bitch.
Rock solid fundamentals. Even after almost 17 years of playing, mine still aren’t as good as Haitani’s.
its how he changes his jump arch and i can’t seem to apply pressure without fear of ex coming out!
This kinda reminds of the Super days when V-Ryu made Mak look powerful despite actually being a weak character.
You should repost this in the match-up thread
lol @ 20:00 to 20:25, the ryu player pretty much got killed by tsurigis the entire round lol
