Please critique mines, I still think I overall need to let my opponent make more mistakes and punishing them than just keep thinking they will jump out of corners and I can reset them back in with a pre-jump kick . ):

i was playing one of my friend who is usually pretty good with ryu, i guess he just made all the wrong choices in this one ahah

Play people who know how to block more than 2 times per match.

This.

hey womble let me see some of your vids, since you hate so much you must be at daigo`s level or even better who knows??

Being able to TKD consistently (pad or not) doesn’t make you any good.
Really quick overview:

  • you’re showing us matches against people not able to block
  • you’re just doing dive into hp into tatsu, even if dive or hp doesn’t hit, or low mk xx tatsu (unconfirmed too)
  • 3/4 of those should lead to the loss of 1/3 of your life
  • you’re taunting post round probably thinking you’re good

Don’t want to be rude, but if you have no idea why we said all those negative comments, then you’re really bad.

yeah id say he made the wrong choice when he decided doing joudan at round start was a good idea.
and then decided to start the second round with a fierce shoryu. that’s using your noggin’.

i don’t think you understand how long and smooth of a gradient there is in player skill in 3S. womble doesn’t need to be daigo or nuki to be much better than you.

instead of lashing out and posting videos where you demolish people, you might want to think why people aren’t impressed and ask legitimate questions.

If you want to improve play better people.

You will learn nothing playing people like that.

Don’t be so defensive. It will only hold you back. At this stage you need to accept that you suck.

first you dont need to be so defensive, i’m not saying and i never claimed im the best at this game, i want to improve my akuma i was posting these vids to get some constructive comments as you just did. i was asking womble some vids of him cuz he didnt said anything constructive since the beginning. i would like to play some amazing players but the thing is that you dont get to choose your opponent in 3s oe…

about the dive into hp… how am i supposed to know if its going to hit? im just trying and if it hit’s then i keep going with the rest of the combo…

i taunt because some players start playing really bad when you taut and it’s just funny to frustrate my opponent. also because know that it increase the damage and stun damage of the next hit or combo… not sure if it works for the next round

if you know a really good player on ps3, give me his psn id and i will play him…

You should probably post some losses or at least close matches. Hard to point out what went wrong in vids of you smashing dudes.

Reacting to things that hit or not is called a hit confirm. Its might be the most important thing in 3s besides parrying.

Sorry to break it to you carlito, but I’m not even good. I get raped on the regular, but that’s a good thing (kinda). You can’t get better playing scrubs is what I’m saying.

i will… maybe more close matches because when you get raped usually you already know why when ur playing with akuma…

yes, i know that. this is what ESN wrote : “you’re just doing dive into hp into tatsu, even if dive or hp doesn’t hit, or low mk xx tatsu (unconfirmed too)” im just saying even if your not sure if your opponent is going to block you have to try some things right? if not then your playing 100% defensive which i don’t really like… only blocking and waiting for your opponent to messup… I’m not saying i never play like that, i do sometimes but usually im more an offensive player…

i agree but you cant choose who you play against in 3rds oe ranked match. i just didn’t get how your other comment “Nice TKD, however I can’t help but facepalm at how bad you and your opponent are.” can help me improve my akuma…

I think he is implying that your TKD is nice, but you lack experience playing your character bro

Offensive != completely reckless

You have to try things, sure, but it’s all about risk vs reward. What’s safe, what’s a possible solution to a given situation even if it’s a little risky, what’s completely brainless, etc… And, logically, what are the possible consequences of your actions, for you and your opponent. This is basic and mandatory knowledge if you wanna learn the game.

Basically, most of the combos (if not all) start with a confirmable normal:

  • dive xx hp xx tatsu is crap, but dive xx hp -confirm hit- xx tatsu is good : hp has long enough block/hit stun to make it easy to confirm into something else, and if hp is blocked, opponent will have a hardest time to punish you, specially if you cancel into demon flip
  • cr.mk xx tatsu is a good punish combos but you shouldn’t use it as an opener (unless you can confirm cr.mk) : blocked? you’re dead against makoto (for example)

3S (or any FG in general) is not about spamming entire combos, hoping they’ll hit. You won’t realize this unless you play better players.

It isn’t just combos you can hitconfirm eithier. You can confirm that someone missed (whiffed) a move, such as a poke or a throw and then punish them during their recovery animations. It may seem very basic, but getting simple stuff down like this is extremely important as it minimizes the risks you have to take (I.E. doing unhitconfirmed combos).

ok yeah i get what ur saying, i shouldnt keep going if the first or second hit dosent actually hit my opponent… i think its kind of a combination that i hope the second hit or third hit will confirm so i can finish my combo with SA1 or something like that AND because that with akuma its easy to keep going and finish with a mixup like demon flip grap… so i still get to “hit” my opponent with this mixup even if he blocked 2 or 3 hits combo that i was trying. so yeah i have to make sure that my combos arent punishable…

cr.mk xx tatsu is a good punish combos but you shouldn’t use it as an opener (unless you can confirm cr.mk)
i never really took the time to notice that its a bad opener.

thanks for the tips!

finally something usefull ahah

Yea, sorry about being a dickhead :stuck_out_tongue:
