actually come to think of it, doom versus everyone in the top 4 is pretty bad. how does doom pin cable? granted all the doom players i play against pretty much suck, except this one guy, he’s like j mar’s brother and his doom is sick.
but i mean if doom throws pink shit, bullet plus hyper viper beam. or wavedash behind him, superjump lp fp hyper viper beam. if he tries to sj and air dash up, then cable can stop the air dash by sj at the same time and shooting a bullet or viper beam. it seems doom would have to try to rush down cable, not pin him, because all his stuff is easily punishable… right?
and for the commando versus cable stuff, imo cable is not really all that good one on one. he doesnt have a very good anti air option like the other characters. he doesnt really have a good answer to commandos jump in fierce. commandos air throw beats out cables air throw. commando can also safely execute c. lk c. lk ninja as a chip and pressure string (the ninja will hit if cable tries to do anything). if the lk connect, then combo into c. fierce qcf + 2 kick super. or combo into c. lk c. fierce captain fire.
as for commando, i can see he comes at a disadvantage because his captain sword often whiffs on cable, doing no damage, and he can’t do captain fire, and he can’t call out the mummy very often either, and he can’t do standing fierce that often either as well. but he has access to the rest of his moves.
i mean if cable tries to keep commando away, he cant cover the whole screen. if cable super jumps, then wave dash over. if cable stays on the ground, then super jump over.
shrug. i just think commando is very underated.
the only real bad match up for commando is
commando versus sentinel
which is like ten million times worse than commando versus cable imo, because there is absolutely nothing commando can do against sent.
nothing. absolutely nothing.
