"Put down the Flowchart, Scrub!" Ken Video Thread

Joon, what is the purpose of the nj.FP?

I’m trying to absorb as much as I can for this matchup.

Probably stop any air attempts Akuma makes with demon flip shenanigans.

I really like the option select dps and tatsus into the light normals, not enough people do that including me.

Gotta play people that will give you a reason to do those OS’s in the first place. If you’re still in Austin those OSes will def come in handy.

I have to say that FT10 was a true master class in the use of Option Selects.

A real joy to watch.

It also made me think about what other situations where OS’ed jab DP might be useful…

Any thoughts people?

Peace,

G.

Ex sbk, ex psycho crusher, ex headstomp, ex scissors. Just some I can think of on the fly. Not tested but seems possible.

Might trade with EX crusher or EX scissors. Prob beats EX SBK but I don’t think it covers Chun’s broken backdash.

Chun backdash is the best move in the game. You can’t beat the best move in the game.

In case anyone missed it, Shin also put up another Banana Ken Endless set a few days ago:

Thanks for sharing Shin, it’s great to be able to watch these :cool:

Xbox live replays have been a bit quiet for the past week or so, I’m guessing a lot of people are in the arcades getting the practice in for AE. Still came across some good ones, lilsicx66 has been on it especially:

step1091x [Ken] vs its showtime [Ken]

Is there a reason why every jump in post throw was a lk? (Referring to the step vs showtime vid)

It’s an ambiguous cross-up. You block it like it’s a cross up but he lands in the front.

Two random matches I had against a decent Dudley. Disregard my little brothers trolling. LOL. Anyways. Critique please?

^ I don’t think I ever saw you anti-air him, and you weren’t really using your cr. mk very well or even that much for that matter. You were playing it kinda right as in you weren’t chasing him at least. Just think of it this way, for every second that he’s in on you keeping you guessing your chance of winning goes down. Keep him out stand at ranges where his fierce will whiff so you can sweep punish and then hurt him with mix ups. Oh, and don’t throw so many risky mid-screen fire balls that’s bad.
