im restarting my p-groove team and i found ken to be really usefull in it, parrying helps alot, and if i keep a good “flow of motion” every pary becomes a shoryuken. scince i parry forward, i just finish the dp motion and press punch, .
so any ways, im starting to use a p-ken and i would like to have sum tips and such from other p-ken players…
Build meter with short funky kick
Parry in air xx airthrow
Parry xx shoryuken
Low parry xx cr. short x2, st. short, short funky kick
Empty small jump cr. short combo’s
Use basic BnB’s for pressure.
i like P ken.I use him in my crappy P team I just started recently with P. but the Parry->Shoryuken thing is amazing…then people sometimes do the DUMBEST thing…and try to empty jump…to…you know…fool me into parrying…umm…DP their ass to the ground :lol:
my suggestion would be to replace rock with terry…why? terry has better wake up games and wut not with dash than rock. terry is just about better with a dash than a run. parry into his s.fp then super or qcb lp.
Keep Sagat.
P-kyo is pretty dayum nasty to tell tha truth…i think him and vega are probably the a-sakura and a-bison of p-groove.
Actually, Rock has some mean wakeup games with rage run shift, he really doesn’t even need a corpse hop dash like Terry’s. And although P Kyo is pretty good, P CBS is better, more specifically P Cammy.
P-Kyo is probably the best character in P-Groove. P-Rock is tech! Rock’s best groove is definatly P, with the only contender being K. His P is MUCH stronger than Terry’s. Terry likes C or S. Sagat and Blanka are nowhere near the tech they are in P-Groove. They belong in C or A. Same goes for Bison and Sakura, stick with them in A. Just because some character is an unbalanced whore in some grooves, doesn’t meant they are the tech choice for every other groove =P.
As for Ken he isn’t really great and should probably stick to C and A grooves. He can hold his own though and his parry strings are ok. I use him in my back-up P-Groove team purely for fun.
hmm… im gonna have to disagree… I think P-cammy is better than kyo but that’s my just my opinion. P-kyo is good but haven’t seen many “american” p-kyo’s perform at the level of cammy.
I’m also gonna throw in A-Rock as being amongst top grooves for Rock just for the hell of it. Maybe cuz I got beasted my Combofiend’s A-Rock just yesterday.
I don’t know… I think Rock’s Grooves go like this (order) K, C/P/A, N, S. And CBS are all better in P than Kyo, I don’t know where you got that from…Also what the hell does Terry have to do with anything? Just because Bison and Sak are top tier doesn’t mean people think theyre good in P, they’re only top tier because of their customs anyway. Ken is balanced enough that he can be a contender in any groove, we know he’s better in C and A but this thread is about P Ken.
Rock is alot better with the threat of a CC/Lv3 at hand, with S he doesn’t get that lv3 till about death, so he can’t controll the pace of the match well.
