I called SeikuRyu up because I’m gay and he pretty much told me it really wasn’t that bad-- though he’s thinking of switching mains if Ying or Yang have an instant dive kick.
When I first started playing, TKCS was also a big part of my attack. But recently, I’ve been using more of Cammy’s arsenal with the jumping CS, using strong and forward pokes, block strings into FA, and jumping short cross ups. With the amount of Ryu players online, I try avoiding CS on all wake-ups. So as long as they buff Cammy up else where, I think I can live without TKCS.
itt: people think this affects her mixup game.
her meter gain is shit on.
i am sad.
sad am i.
no TKCS is just no fun and builds meter slower. you can still do delay tk dive kick with quick jump + strike motion. we have all the combo down already, we don’t need easier to do combo.
Basically , no TKCS , i will switch to Yun even if Cammy gets alot better and top tier, i won’t be using her with out it. Fun is important, i won’t be winning any tournament anyway, i just want to play for fun.
i will say it is not uncommon for drastic changes to be made during first loketests so they can gauge how far things get thrown out of whack.
here’s hoping for some foresight, capcom.
Best post ive seen today. I don’t think anyone intended on cammy spamming tkcs all day. She has a lot of tools without that silly gimmick.
I’m looking forward to seeing her other changes. Losing TKCS definately makes some things worse, but it would be really easy to make up for it.
Simple things like changing her focus breaker from spin knuckle to drill (like roses) would change quite a bit.
Or raising the height restriction as they have but letting you spike from neutral and back jump, lots of possible things they might have done with her and so little has been reported.
Should be fun to read the rest of her changes.
Exactly. What was capcom thinking?
I could never do it, anyway.
Honestly I don’t use the move that much.
But you’d be crazy if you don’t think the threat of it is huge against good players.
Also, it really opens up the Gief matchup for her IMO, among other ones.
If this change does stay final, they need the foresight to leave delayed ones in at least, they are the more important version IMO. Or give strike out of hooligan. The biggest universal defensive technique other than blocking in IV is that people mash on OS-tech - taking away 25% minimum punisher is big.
They need a very small height restriction if any or better get her up to speed in some other areas. Or if the other reported changes remain final, make everyone even more Nerf-geared.
OT, but I’m really interested (re: worried) to see what they do to Sagat. First loketest, not permanent, etc. but it’s fun to comment.
the most important aspect of being able to do tkcs is the fact that its the only way she can safely build meter. how is she gonna fight the shotos and guile without being able to build at least one bar before going on the offensive. now ppl can really crouch tech all day against her.
good thing this isn’t gonna make it to the actual release. i hope.
tha fuck…that shit is mind blowing…the fuck are they thinking
no its not…
ummm ok…so how do you build meter against guile without tkcs? all of her other specials are highly punishable.
i dont need to build meter ever i just play and reserve it…once you learn how to approach guile and his booms you dont need to lay back and build meter to get to him. its not that serious…I manipulate the fact i can change my dive trajectory or mp hooligan or lp sbf over and around booms.
the hardest thing about using cammy is knowing distances to use her specials at so they arent punishable
**the worst fact about tkcs normal bein missing is that it fucks up the throw / tkcs mixup **that we all have developed for shitty reversal characters…as well as crossup to tkcs tricks

what’s to become of us, srk cammy users?? where are we to go from here?! :’(
just because you don’t use tk strike to build meter, it doesn’t mean other people shouldn’t use it. it’s free meter.
The meter you get from whiffing cannon strikes over and over is so small and worthless I never do it. I get my meter in the most effective way, attacking the opponent. You don’t need meter to mount an offense, only to mount a better offense.
As long as she can do still do normal cannon strikes close to the ground her pressure game is still pretty much there.
EDIT: Its only location tests stop flying off the handle
Oh come on, it’s just a test. They always do crazy bullshit changes like this during these test just as a “you know what if” which never ever find themselves into the final game and whoops there’s Gen isn’t there okay yeah be a little scared I guess.
again, just because you don’t use it to build meter, it doesn’t mean other people wouldn’t use it.
Sako uses it alot against fireball characters and against Dhalsim.
example: if sako doesn’t use it to build meter. he doesn’t have two bar to fadc out of unsafe SA at the 1:39.
