I don’t really know what to say about Mago’s Gouken, but the Mak player does some good stuff.
And you can hear Mago being salty, so it’s worth it.
Sorry for the noob question but can somebody tell me what exactly happens at 1:05? The dude does a Fukiage to catch Mago jumping in but the divekick or whatever move absorbs it like a focus in the air. Is that Gouken’s regular divekick? Do any other characters have moves that “focus” in the air like that?
Only gouken can do that. It’s his demon flip, hand. I already saw Daigo countering that with st LP, srk, both hitting in the air. I wonder if makoto can do the same thing with sMK fukiage. sLK sMK TC could beat that, maybe.
Gouken can do a “parry” with Demon flip > Punch. Basically give him one hit of armor in the air from which he lands very fast.
Jesus. I was disgusting.

Faced infiltration when he was a god. Couldn’t do well tho. My match is 44:18
Just wanna post these to get to the bottom of why I sucked with makoto so much. I know I need to block more but theres something about the way i play doesnt seem to work good…If you guys can help me, then i’ll be very grateful and as happy as bugs bunny, know wat im saying? OK Here we go.
In the first video against Tokido you dashed into a ton of normals and fireballs. Her dash is good as dashes go, but dashing in general is only situationally good. It’s also not your only way to move around. I think from what I’ve seen, your weakest aspect is your spacing(applies to your dashing, jumping and footsies). Makoto isn’t an amazing character when it comes to footsies, but that doesn’t mean that you can ignore it either. You want to be able to out footsie your opponent or at least make them think twice about going nuts. You can’t train yourself to know 50/50 mixup you can only take a guess so don’t punish yourself there. I’m at work, but I’ll update this when I get home with an in depth match analysis of one of the videos
I thought you [played the dhalsim matchup well even though you lost. only thing I would use more of in that matchup was cr lk os ex hayate for all those low normal attacks that this sim constantly thru out at you. maybe some plinked tsurigis when you jump in in some situations.
you probably would have won if you went with makoto from the get go!
Have’nt been comfortable with the match up. Dhalsim’s normals are just as much to his advantage as Makoto rush down Dhalsim to her advantage. Just not enough experiences getting in to his face. It’s no excuse to pick Yun over Mak. 
Wait… You can do non meaty oroshi > stHP ? What is this sorcery.
Damn, this Makoto is really highly technical.
The EX Oroshi > dash > fHK feint corpse hope > kara hayate cancel > cross up ( unblockable ? ) axekick was really neat.
No,you shouldn’t be able to do oroshi>HP,I guess he did a 1 frame meaty oroshi,but yeah,this makoto men,I want to be like him
ya that was most definitely meaty. a lot meatier? if thats a word? than 1 frame too.
Well it has to be at the very least 1 frame meaty,but yeah,looks meatier than 1 frame
You can do Oroshi->st.hp just in the corner and your opponent need to be standing,that’s why he do that during the dizzy state. The timing is hard as fuck. This Makoto use st.hk a lot like me,it’s incredible how many pokes that tool can stuff clean,some players forget that v2012 buff (better hitbox,can beat low pokes). He use even j.mk crossup a lot mixing those with the tsurugis: he train his opponent to block the Tsurugis first then he find him off guard from the back with j.mk. Even if j.mk hitbox seems shitty we can use it during pressure,I’m just training myself to use it properly these days (with some safe pressure against the upcoming DWU) and it works well. Give it a try.
Lots of good stuff here. This is my second favorite Makoto player to watch.
Which one tho ?
Both the one in the black schoolgirl outfit and the one in the white gi are pretty good.
2:02:25 : Is that a focus > armor cancel into U1 to beat a safejump ? I think it is ! Dang
OMG @Noocta , this is not exactly what you said but it’s trully awesome ! It’s an armor cancel ultra (no focus, just an EX karakusa), which is very difficult (IMO).
Very nice, very beautiful : )
Normally I don’t like posting up my own matches on here, but I figured this might be worth looking at considering I don’t think the Makoto vs Fei matchup changes very much in Ultra, and it was a good set:

FT10 starts a 1:00:00.
You can skip a little before where we both do a “pre-game” interview about what our thoughts are going into the match, and we talk about the match afterwards.
