Basically i’m curious what similarities my fellow Vega players have with the characters they struggle against. I was looking at this earlier today and a lot of Vega’s hard match-ups don’t bother me all that much; whether this is because the people I am playing suck with these characters or that I just have played so damn many of the frequently used bad match-ups that i know them by heart.
Any how i’m looking for a Top 5 and Bottom 5.
Top 5
Makoto - 73.21%
Vega - 71.68%
Evil Ryu - 70.45%
Akuma - 68.49%
Rose - 64.71%
Bottom 5
5. Chun-li 44.34%
4. Blanka 40.17% - (Interesting as i seem to have a lot of trouble with this fucker lol.)
3. Rufus 37.64%
2. E. Honda 36.51%
Seth 33.85% - I absolutely dread this match online, I feel like with a little bit of delay it makes it very difficult to do anything.
Deejay 35.58% (I play against xWAx TheKraken way too much)
Rufus 32.64%
When I look at Blanka Honda and Elf I just kind of cringe because I feel like every time I play one online it’s the same guy who lolz turtle build meter score counter knockdown and run oki.
Seth is a good matchup for me, akuma not so much… we need to exchange notes sir.
Haha exactly :). Interesting to see you also have Blanka, Rufus and Honda in your bottom. I actually feel i don’t do that bad against Rufus but its that one random any poke it feels like into Ultra that kills ya.
I lost my save file / player profile not too long ago so this is only out of my most recent 610 matches:
Here’s the top 5 and bottom 5 spots. I have a bunch of ties since my save file is small.
Fuerte, Rose, Oni - 100%
Seth - 92.86%
Abel, E.Ryu - 90.91%
Balrog - 90%
Guile, Makoto - 88.89%
Zangief - 61.11%
Dhalsim, Fei - 60%
Gen - 50%
Chun - 48%
Viper - 30.77%
Yes, I don’t really avoid fighting noobs so my win rates are inflated haha. Also I never felt that weak vs Viper, I’m sure I’ve rematched some strong players and that skewed the numbers.
35 Ibuki - 43.48%
36 Balrog - 41.03%
37 Guy - 40.54%
38 Blanka - 38.24%
39 El Fuerte - 16.67%
Honda’s down near the bottom too and I think a special one to note is Yang at 31st spot with a 50% win rate. Both before and after the 2012 patch I still feel he is the more dangerous twin for me, and now it’s mostly cuz nobody plays him anymore so a good one shows up and I get blown up XD. Mirror matches are down there too at 45.00%, I was badly snakebit on that one for a while and cringed when I had another Claw to deal with.
And the Elf matches…yes I do get blown up a LOT there with his insane knockdown game. But I think i’m FINALLY beggining to understand that one a lil better, just need more Fuertes to practice on.
Interesting, that could be a better approach to think tiers. Here are mines :
Oni — 95,65%
Adon — 90,00% (what ? X_X)
Dee-Jay — 88,89%
Vega — 87,5%
Akuma — 84,62%
I am quite surprised regarding Adon and Akuma, but I think I must have fought the best ones in endless, and lesser ones in ranked. About Vega, a lot of GFWL ranked Claws are weak on fundamentals, so my results look better than they would be against decent ones.
Hakan — 42,86%
Gen — 36.36%
Dhalsim, Chun-li — 33.33%
Rufus — 25%
Honda — 16,7%
No surprise, here are most of the MU I know the less with few practice opportunities. And I get nailed everytime by Sim’s U1 setups. ^^
You mean you’re purposefully choosing noobs, don’t you ! Dam, those win rates are brutal. =D
What it seems from the first results here is that there is a lot of individual differences regarding MUs. That means that personal playing style could as much importance in MUs than character choice. =)
As I suspected, Blanka isn’t as easy to Claw than some said. Mine is 56.75%, but I struggled to improve at this MU. =)
Agreed i don’t find that blanka is a brain dead match-up as most claim. It’s not like we are fighting T Hawk here where one hard knockdown = game if you do it right.
