Suppose I give Akuma a hard knockdown, when he has a raging demon ultra stocked up. If I jump in, can he always wakeup raging demon? or is there a way to safejump and defend against this possibility?
Thanks.
Also any tips on wakeup ultras in general. Are there characters that you can’t safejump in on, because of the possibility of wakeup ultra?
That depends on when you decide to jump and what movelist the other guy has. Same thing.
Same thing. Some moves have priority over other moves, learned this recently against a higher ranked hugo user and figured out what worked and what fell flat. Also learned a few tricks from some really above dudleys in the process as well.
I will say, do not attempt crazy shit on a vega player. What ever you do, do not go random, on a vega player. Those are scarier than dictators imo.
Figure out what moves actually hit the other dude, for instance dudley low jabs for some reason stop vega rolls but not the ex zigzag thing, watch out for those unless R.ryu has tools that can touch that.
Most jump in attack will fall flat on akuma’s ultra, I been hit by many of them unexpectedly when jumping in with anyone.
Although only if the other dude is still like in the first 2 seconds of the move.
This is probably easier to answer on the character specific forums, becaue this depends on which characters you play.
That being said, if you do a proper safejump you can almost always beat said Raging Demon with an invincible move when he activates it.
Thanks for the replies. I’ll post in the ryu forum for specifics.
Akuma’s Ultra Raging Demon has 5 frame start-up, but has enough invincibility to eat a safe jump. His Super Raging Demon has 0 frame start up, but has no invincibility, so it will lose to a safe jump attack. Also remember that Raging Demon is a throw and will lose to everything a throw would lose to.
Since Akuma has a 3 frame, invincible dp, safe jumps are not very effective against him, unless you have a set-up that makes dp’s whiff or if you empty jump.
