Thanks for the info on Necro Strider-Hiryu!
Necro has got that corner combo that works on almost anyone-
c.short xx jab electricity xx SA III, hct+jab x 5, fierce electricity
His elbow corner combos don’t seem to work in 2I, so that makes his corner game a lot weaker against Urien for example.
And, yeah, Yang can chain his c.short to c.forward in this game…
bump, I need some Ibuki help
how can I be a total whore with her in this game?
Can you play as Shin Akuma in this game?
yang is fuckin awesome in 2i.
-c.lk can be linked into c.mk into rekkas
-c.lp can be linked into c.lk or c.mp into rekkas
-lp/c.lp can be linked into mp into rekkas
-raishen mahakken has 2 medium sized bars
-sei’ei enbu requires a longer bar, but since it requires a longer bar, it gives more time after activation
-sei’ei enbu seems have higher priority than it did in 3s since the shadows moves much faster
-dive kicks are seeminly faster
-c.hk also seems faster
-he has yuns c.mp from 3s, the good bufferable c.mp, not that slow crap he has in 3s.
2i is superior than 3s. it has better music especially dudley, ibuki and ryus stage. better backgrounds especially yangs stage and i rather deal with ibuki and akuma in 2i than ken and chun in 3s
Funny how Ibuki went from top tier to bottom tier, and Sean dropped from mid-tier to bottom bottom bottom tier in one game.
They really messed up Ibuki’s defense in 3S, and Sean was pretty much castrated all around.
3rd Strike is one of my favourite fighting games of all time, but if you’re not using Ken, Chun, or Yun, your chances of winning any tourneys are slim, and that just sucks.
IIRC, wasn’t Akuma banned in 2I, or am I thinking of something else (not ST).
Hugo’s infinite is Ultra Throw, (Fierce Giant Palm Bomber)*n. The solo Ultra Throw infinite only works on Gill.
Ken is too low on your list, and I think Ibuki was considered #1.
I’ve never heard of any of the normal characters getting softbanned. True Gouki can be selected on console only.
Ive gotta disagree with that. My reasons? Makoto can make people cry if she knows the right things, Dudley is annoying as hell. Those 2 stand chances, although the top three provide them with some tough matchups nonetheless.
But the ace in the hole? Urien. Tell me Urien doesnt have a chance at winning tourneys, Ive seen it more than once.
But yeah Im just nitpicking a bit too much, the top 3 ARE up there for a reason lol.
As for 2i, Urien had this one combo…I cant remember it exactly but I think I think it was cr.FP, EX HB, cr.FP , EX HB. Massive stun.
Just my 2 cents, feel free to correct me , Ill check it out later on my DC, I think thats the right combo.
Ibuki isn’t bottom tier in 3S.
