(OLD) Ken General Discussion Thread (Combos, Techniques, etc.)

I feel a bit offended by what you just said about dA, but i get what you mean if you lurk in a specific category overtime (i.e. that link just above).

Anyway, I noticed computers are able to grab me right after I finish a Heavy Tatsu. When I played my cousin who did a Heavy Tatsu on me, i was unable to grab him and he was even able to whip out a H. SRK given hat big gap of no moving whatsoever. Would I increase my chances of grabbing him if i kept spamming the grab button when the tatsu is almost over?

I’m seriously having trouble finding a way to follow up on a tatsu at the same time, defeat it. Would a c. LK be the quickest move to follow up with a tatsu or a LP (or even a c. LP)? Is it possible that I pull out a shoryuken before he can jab? or should I do a c. MP > SRK?

options for following up a normal rh.tatsu = block+tech,SRK,grab
options for following up an ex.tatsu = block+tech,srk,grab,c.lk
In general…

dont forget about ultra and backdash or nutral jumps and jump back instant over head

ken’s instant overhead doesn’t hit crouching opponents does it?

oh also i just figured i should post this here after our talks about it. but adding cr.fp like you suggested for srk combo’s enhances the amount of stun on the bnb from low 200’s to a nice 400 or so, and then if you hit your jump-in mixup post srk you can either leave them 1 hit from stun or just dizzy in that combo which makes him far more dangerous than he would be otherwise.

i told you c.hp is worth it, plink that shit, and if they r standing u can do s.l p to c.hp and thats ez as hell we need that stun ,lol,but yes it will hit crouching ppl wit big hit boxes,gief abel goken sagat not sure about rufus, but ya its very useful,when u do it on goken and he duz parry he absorbs the fp but u take no damage so jumpbak hp or jump fward hp wurks realy good mixd in your arsenal
lol i cant even understand what i typed,from now on im gonna try not to use shorthand.
my bad fellas

I understood it, lilsicx, and I appreciate the info from both you and lulu. I’ll be working on adding that c.hp in my b&b.

yeah, the more stun the better. I love free post stun combos

Damn right. That C.Hp is awesome, starting to use it more as well. St. Lp > Cr.Hp easy indeed, gotta be close though.

WTF?! How did BryanV2 get banned?! Ken player witch hunt?!

I think he posted in the new info thread with no new info.

lol ouuuuuch he was a good guy :confused:

yeah his only 2 infractions are listed as being sub-forum rules that he isn’t following. both filed by keits one on the 6th and one last night… ouchie

i wonder if we could ask keits to let him off with a warning for being a dumbie… we have to stick together as kens damnit!

If it’s 2 infractions it’s just a 7 day temp ban, he’ll be back don’t worry about it. I was temp-banned for apparently “Trolling” (according to Gilley, trolls are those who disagree with him) before. After the temp-ban the infractions will most likely be lifted so they’re not on his permanent record of sorts.

ah, thanks for the tip. it said though that the infractions will last a bit longer on his personal page. but that doesn’t mean he wont get unbanned.
