ok not to come in and ruin anything but OnlyWingedAngel… u have no idea what you are talking about with A LOT of these matchups… not to be a dick, just the truth
Yeah I gotta get around to cleaning it up
None taken, I wrote ALLOT of these matchups on month 1 impressions the game has obviously changed ALLOT since then so believe you me when I know its a hell of allot different there. I’ve been writing matchups based on how the game currently is but due to allot of work i’ve been doing lately I haven’t been able to put that work in.
Also, either your’re IGT Unknown or that you happen to have the name Unknown and happen to post here in the Nemesis forums/use Nemesis.
i am IGT Unkn0wn, i shud really get another account
Perhaps, or just have some recognition that your IGT Unkn0wn would help.
meh i guess ill change my avatar to a pick of me holding up my srk name? lol wat do u want from me, and y the fuck does everyone hate on me in this fucking thread… jesus peace
Far as I understand, people were upset because they didn’t like how simple your Nemesis was when you first showed up on the forum radar. I dunno, I’m still not quite sure why all the hate
Because all the people here love Nemesis and Unknown use Nemesis as his sacrifice / dispensable zombie monster for Wesker / Sentinel XF Lv2 BS.
I dont hate Unknown…
a nemesis player is a nemesis player, they all deserve some love
Right, nobody here hates unkn0wn as a player or as a person (maybe except Serpantaurus? lol) but we are entitled to our opinions when he first showed up as a Nemesis player. But since then opinions are subject to change.
xD not at all.
so since this is the matchup thread, what do you guys think about Nemmy vs Wolverine + akuma Tatsu or Shopping cart? i want an answer against that ***** since he beats my mains like 6 out of every 10 fights.
I usually play Nemmy backed up with Arthur daggers and Wesker OTG.
Not quite well versed in this sort of matchup, but would keeping your distance and using Angled Deadly Reach do OK? You can hop away from Tatsu and is Wolverine tries to Berserker Slash, Reach would get him and Akuma? I dunno, food for thought.
I find reach is hit or miss vs characters packing Akuma tatsu assist. It comes out really fast, and is just a big spinning hitbox of death, with surprising range. Even with nemesis’s deadly reach, Akuma assist deserves respect. One mistimes DR and you’re in deep shit.
I’d say try to play a ranged game here. Stay as far away from the opponents side of the screen as possible, so even if wolvie hits you and calls Akuma, he’ll miss. Jumping H is your friend here I feel, same with j.M, although j.H’s 360hitbox makes dive kick and cross up shenanigans more honest.
…Has anyone noticed that Nemesis fights Zero, REALLY well? I mean it’s not a 7-3 matchup by any means, but that Nemesis has an answer for almost everything Zero does? And of course, after landing the hit, Zero has to work MUCH harder to get the kill than Nemesis.
at first I was skeptical and was gonna call you out, but then I sat and thought on it and… All my fights with Zero while using Nemesis HAVE been easier than with other characters.
like you said, nowhere near 7-3 and even a 6-4 might be pushing it, but Nemesis appears to be a surprisingly solid matchup for zero here. now of course, if you let zero get in and start his bullshit, Nemesis is fucked, but so is almost everyone else if they let Zero get his bullshit on. In Neutral game, yeah, I’d say nemesis is well prepared against zero
Crossups, including lightning = jH
Super jump = jM
Pizza Slicer = jM / Grab
Zero using that air jump, then down TP = Grab if you want to risk it
Zoning with Sougenmu = Rockets and Reach
Standing H into Shippuga = Advancing Guard then Launch
Even Buster LVL3 from the air can be beat out by jM attacking from a angle it can’t reach.
Nemesis has the answers to make the matchup plausible. It’s REALLY noticeable with a super jumping Zero too.
lol no, Zero is one the worst matchups for Nemmy, and that’s because he can go from zoning to rushdown like no one. One touch and Nemmy is dead, or at least he should be if the Zero player is good.
It’s all about angles, and Nemesis does a good job at attacking Zero in angles that, while he can fight, has a harder time doing so than in other cases. I’ve faced a fair share of good Zeros, and the only time they had it easy vs Nemesis was when assists were involved. Other times, he wasn’t able to get off scott free 100% of the time like he can with others. Zero’s zone to offense strategy is always prominent, but he has a tendency to be in active frames for a long time, and Nemesis can work with that easy.
Side note: out of curiosity, do you think Zero vs Thor is harder for Zero than most?
mm, i think Magneto is the harder matchup for Zero. Zero vs Thor is hard for Thor, but at the same time it’s very dangerous for Zero, one mistake and he can get hurricane’d / strike’d into a TOD. The zoning war with busters + assist vs Spark L / M.Strike + zoning assist is very equal for both sides in chances of winning.
I always thought Strike ripped through his zoning well enough to garner an edge. But I stand by my statement about Zero vs Nemesis. As I and Macaratti have said before, it’s not like it’s in Nemesis’s favor, but it’s crtainly easier for him than the likes of, say, Tron, Hulk or others
It’s actually a tense fight, the Zero advantage is the lolhitbox of those lightnings.
Well yes, Nemmy can control s.j zoners better than people think, j.M and j.f. deadly reach are very good for dealing with spammers like Doom, Trish, Wesker, etc. Zero real advantage are the lightnings, that thing needs a nerf urgently.
