This was the buzz that DOA needed.

Glad you like the stick. I’ve been really happy with the Obsidian overall. Also props to your wife for hooking you up. 
For discord I was actually talking about the SRK discord. In the extremely rare moments when they aren’t memeing or playing MH/Apex/whatever else is out that isn’t SF some of the Ibuki players that used to post more here pop up there.
However you’re definitely gonna get more out of bugging DevilJin for Ibuki deets.
At this point it’s pretty obvious that whatever reserved look they were trying to make initially for the game was just a front to lure a few SJWs in. DOA is still visually a perv’s game regardless.
Only fighting game I know that had an age code to let you see the main character naked in a vat of green ooze and make the boobs bounce more.

Day 1 ended. Most of the highlights are in this video.
No real Sagat players I saw (you have to be a certain type of person to play him any way). There was this one G player named Abeshin something that looked pretty good.

I guess I was just looking for a general gameplan and some things you must know how to do to have a basic ibuki. I’ve watched videos and read guides I still feel kind of lost with her.
Are mid screen 50/50s gone now?
I’m assuming l.hcb should be my ender to leave the opponent closer for pressure
Does her overhead go into anything?
I didn’t know srk gas a discord. I’ll be looking for that. I remember hearing about it while they were looking for alternatives for the forum.
that falke moment and balrog/zeku moment lmfao
edit: karin whiff CA moment JESUS FUUCAKSNDAKNAGASdg
Buffer into EX Kunai, then start that party once you catch them slipping. Also raw canceling into dash is fake, but do it every now and again to keep them honest.
VS is your best button because it makes the other guys buttons whiff, but don’t overdo lest you get jumped on.

Yeah @Frost can give you the hook up if you need an invite link. He “runs” that place, as much as anyone can. Its a fun thing to dip into periodically and read. I don’t post there much but I’m old and mostly check on my phone.
General gameplan is to fish for one of these 4 things in the mid range
-
s.LK buffered into HK DP for corner carry/oki or s.LK raida if close enough
-
c.MP EX kunai (LP+MP usually/LP+HP for certain combo/block strings) to start push into corner or corner 50/50s if close enough to the corner. If you want to conserve meter then fish for c.MP buffer to HK DP instead.
-
Uncharged or charged V Skill at near max range to build v gauge on hit/block. Combo into VTC if you hit and hit confirm it.
-
s.HK CC to catch pokes in neutral or stop someone trying to throw fireball/boom. Dash in do combo if hits.
Some other stuff
-
Use ground kunais to space vs characters that play longer range. When you have a good spot reload a kunai inbetween.
-
Use slide to navigate under projectiles that travel fast enough to slide under. Can also f+HK hop over them at close enough range and hit the opponent.
-
f+HK in general isn’t a bad CC fish alternative. Not as rewarding as s.HK but the opponent can’t crouch it so you don’t have to worry about whiff punishes as often if it gets blocked. Only minus 3 on block so effectively safe on block unless you do it too close. Just make sure you don’t whiff it as it’s pretty easy to whiff punish.
-
Pressure with s.MK, s.MK versus 4 framers (very low pushback) and s.MK, s.MP versus 3 framers. Do throws and shimmies inbetween to fish for throw whiffs and counter hit attempts to button/jab out.
Yeah they died in S3. You couldn’t do midscreen 50/50s on bigger characters any way. Your new midscreen 50/50 is VT2.
It should only really be your ender after a s.LK or if you’re low on meter after a c.MP. Otherwise it doesn’t do enough damage to make it worth it and HK DP/EX kunai do more damage and corner carry better. EX kunai basically sets up good damage and standing mix ups that they can’t tech out of.
It’s plus 3 on hit so naturally combo into s.LPxxxHK DP on hit if you hit it close enough. On counter hit combos into s.MP into whatever you can combo after that.
Also good to remember her target string overhead (s.MP, f+MK). It’s better to land the s.MP on hit to make the overhead more ambiguous, but basically if you land the f+MK off of this string then then f+MK becomes plus 6 on hit. Making it so you can combo into s.MK and then you can combo that into sweep target or s.MPxxex kunai etc.

Appreciate it, now know why I couldn’t get mk tc after overhead lol. I swore I had a ibuki doing that into dash mix-ups but couldn’t figure it out.

I think doa was going to go for a more reserved look until all the backlash they got. Then the higher ups got invovled and told them what they needed to do lol
This is the third time I’ve heard the “less sexy” line from DoA.
Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice…
No reason to go away from your identity anyway.
Team Ninja confirmed to have the best shimmy.

I don’t mind sexy DOA as long as they keep supplies us, oestrogen based beings, some nice material in terms of sexy costumes for the hot guys they have in the series.
We may not get the same fan service as males do from them, but they tend to deliver when they remember we exist.
Now, on those costumes of the deluxe edition, there better be a VERY sexy Bass one.
Or else I will riot!
