R.Mika General Thread: She's Stone Cold

I was just sitting here trying to get this shit to work for like 45 minutes, i can get the lk reset to land but theres no way to cross under?

edit, tried cr.mk and it seems to work fine.

Her new costume will drive some people crazy :D.

I think Marn’s style fails against people who play buttons. Justin wrecked him. Fuudo style may be needed to initiate the momentum. That being said, Justin rarely allows any momentum in ANY game he plays.

Mika excitement, Alex excitement…and no fucking capcom trailer. Why are hackers more hype than capcom right now?

The reason why Justin won is because these guys play all the time. They are close friends. This even goes back to the vanilla SF4 days. Marn can’t win off of being random if Justin already knows how he plays.

How do I R. Mika?

First day didn’t go so well… Played another Mika who blew me up with F+HP all day. He also kept mashing F+MP even though it’s like -427453, and I got hit a bunch of times before I caught on.

What the hell do you do in a Mika mirror? Outrandom your opponent?

The biggest thing about the Mika mirror is momentum…

Mika has a VERY strong reset game… She also has a VERY weak escape…

Get the mika down, and keep her down, you win. If you are getting pressured either block with v-counter or jump. Hope you guess right.

Mika has no strong reversal. Her EX Wingless and EX Peach both lose to meaty wake up attacks. Don’t waste your bar on wake up.

Something I’m trying to figure out, but can’t test due to being at work.

With the new 4f pre jump frames, if someone blocked mika’s st.lp then held up, would a st.mp catch them in the pre jump frames.
Or did this happen anyway with the 3 frames of pre jump?

It was possible pre patch also, since st.LP is +2 on block and St.MP starts at 5f, but now you get an extra frame to delay your St.MP trap.

Ah so what I’m getting confused with is the last start up frame and the first active frame are essentially the same frame?

Well that means we can get it off of cr.lk aswell now seeing as thats +1 if I’m right?

That is correct. Frame data has been like this since sf4 because they are apparently easier to comprehend.

The key word there being apparently.
Thanks for clearing that up for me!

Love Mika’s new costume. Like a Las Vegas Show Girl… that kicks your ass. 10/10. Holy Bird, Batman.

I get luchador vibes from it, taken up to 11.

Mmmmmm, can’t seem to land the crossunder at 4:55 on Nash/Laura/Shotos. She always stays same side when I do it. Against Karin/Cammy its mad easy, but haven’t landed it on Nash/Laura once.

I love her new costume. I will use it in like 99% of my matches. It’s too sexy.
Finally she got a lipstick!

Maybe my last R.Mika highlight video. Need to start learning some new character.

What is the reward for completing the trials? I need to know if I care about combo 10 or not -_-. Not a combo I ever see myself using but god damn can I not cancel into super to save my life.
