Sakura Strategy and Match-up Thread (2.0)

I believe Balrogs hitbox is closer to you higher up (like it leans forward higher up or something). I could be wrong about this as I’ve never tried punishing dashes with st.lk. I also just remember on Balrog, you can do cl.fp xx tatsu, cr.fp xx tatsu, st.lp > cr.mk/sweep.

We have a local Rog, I always smack him with s.lp for the punish. Just link it into cr.mk and you get a full punish. I’ve also never tried s.lk, jab to cr.mk just seems easier, and I don’t have to buffer straight into shou.

I doubt a good Balrog would do it close enough for close HP to connect…
And yeah you’re right about the s.LP over st.LK but like Deebs said if he’s a bit far you could use the extra range from st.LK!

I do jab ex tatsu. Probably just wasting meter, but getting a knockdown on Balrog is critical imo.

It is, but both the other options also get a knockdown without meter o.O

Fuck Balrog, that is all.

Annoying to frame trap and just outfootsies Sakura, but yeah do st.lp > cr.mk to confirm punish on his dash punches, don’t put yourself at risk by doing st.lk xx hp sho or w/e.

Well to be fair you could do stLK > tatsu too but you don’t get the knockdown and you get -2 if he blocks…

For the testing etc I’ve said this is for me.
Thats why i started I want to learn all this thats why I need to test them to work them into my head how they work, how to do them and so on.
I’ve also said it will be released in time just be patient, I’ve already been working on this for months (cause im slack lol)

Well, then there’s not really a point of going around saying she has 13/14 unblockables and that you are an execution master unless you got the stuff to back yourself up.

Why shouldent I say that, when she does have that many? are you retarded or something for real? im getting abit annoyed by you already… Mission accomplished.

Typical all talk and no show-er.
Gets extremely offended when someone questions them yet has nothing to show for it… kinda dumb.
You say it if you can prove it.
If you can’t then you don’t.
Simple.
Have some nerve calling me a retard considering.

well if you cant read then i call you retarded. its comming up in time when im done this have taken alot of time and you dont care what so ever other then being a douche so ggs

I can read.
You’re just getting angry because someone’s calling you out and you can’t take it.
