The only thing I think you could be thinking of is 1AAAA… and don’t go all the way or he’ll dizzy. And you seem to be confusing scrubs with mashers. Mashers you can’t throw, but can wake them up with whatever. Scrubs know about this little button we like to call guard. In fact, they believe it’s a safe haven when waking up, and you can throw them like mad until they duck, then him them with a fast mid if they try to do a WS attack or a crouching guard.
Talim’s BBK, 6KKK doesn’t work on anyone but retards. If they die to that, you shouldn’t have any problems beating them without it. Follow up all of Talim’s launchers with 44B, in the case of BBK, you can get a pair of 44Bs on CH, I believe.
As for Yoshi, I don’t really play him, but his 214 A+B command grab does massive damage. Also, 6G+K is a life stealing grab, does about half normal throw damage, but gives life back to you. shrug
I guess you could say that but I am not really a “native” to vegas. I guess in your area there is an intermediate stage where mashers quit mashing and begin to block (they become scrubs)…here they all mash, so the difference is foreign to me!!!
A-just once, AA puts you at disadvantage on block
2A-abuse the hell out of it, ends in FC
1AAA-no more than 3 A’s, after three they don’t combo, ends FC
3A-I don’t do the B at the end, too risky. Stuns on cH and safe on block
2aB-hella fast but takes practice to get the timing, ends FC
BB-ok I guess, I only really use it when I need a quick mid and freeze
6B8-really fast, rarely ducked. easily stepped though
6B2-somewhat deceptive for a low, fully charged gets you a free 66A+B. Use it to throw off parries
66B B+K-free rushdown at the right range, optional BT at the end. I go for the BT and mix it up from there with BT 2A and such
2B-use it like 2A, only it has more range and hits mid instead of sp mid. ends FC
9B+K-I like this move alot. It can end in either stance, can be SCC’s and Yoshi has some jf’s out of it
66K-fast, jumps lows, RO’s. I use it alot for corner pressure
6K-highly damaging but kind of slow, punish with it
3K-underused as a poke. I like it alot
WL A- hits low and RO’s to the left, IIRC
66[A+K]-Turning Suicide, punish any whiffed mid range move or GI with it
66A+K-fake Suicide, I don’t use it much, but it ends BT
I won’t cover his stances, those are pretty easy to figure out. Generally you’re going to want to stay extremely close range with Yoshi. Whenever you get pushed into mid range, you have a few options though. You’ve got 66K, 66B B+K, 66[A+K], 44B+K, 9B+K, or either of his stances. Learn how to iFC, alot of Yoshi’s best moves are in FC and WS(although I neglected to mention them before). WS K is fast, ducks high, jumps low, and launches getting you a free 6K. FC 3K is a good ranged low that is relatively safe. FC 1K for mixup, FC 21A hits low, SCUBs, and steps just after startup. Plus you can RCC as well and punish anyone that freezes with 214A+B or stop runaway with 66B B+K.
I know I forgot alot but I can post more Yoshi strats later.
Maxi’s still good, but he’s a shadow of his former self. He lost a lot of his blockstun and natural combos, so it’s hard to push mixups, and renders a lot of his old loop strats useless.
He’s still got a lot going for him, but he’s definitely one of the harder characters to win with. Setting up big damage is very hard, but thankfully, he’s an oustanding poker.
Hi! Have you heard about this? Astaroth’s Just Frame glitch and Lizardman’s 214 throw glitch; does anyone knows something about it and could explain it to me please?
Here’s a really retarded question: How do you “step” in Sc2? I’ve known about it for a while but never learned it, since I stopped playing it seriously like 4 months after it came out or so.
I’m digging it again now though, any info you can lend out? I know it’s a small bloody step that dodges bloody everything almost. THat’s about it, oh and it’s friggin annoying but if I’m going to pick up the game again I need to know how to abuse it.
My current main is X and I use Yoshi to mix things up a bit, and Astaroth when I knind of feel like trying. I’m working on Taki right now, I just use her to show off for crowds and such.
Oh and let me get this straight, if you 2[G] after guarding a high attack, the rest of a string of high attacks will pass right through you? But a medium will hit since although your standing it counts as crotching “hit box wise?”
I use Taki and Ivy a lot for showing off. Ivy to summon suffering or calamity Syphon on noobs/scrubs just for the crowd reaction (if you have a crowd that is).
5AAAAAA? That would be, uh… AA, AA, AA?
