The NEW! Complete Necro Thread

how do you do the multiple Elbow Cannon (down-back + HP) combo. The book says u can do it up to 6 times on Hugo and Alex. I could get 4 off on Hugo, and barely 2 on Alex. Yet in a vid I saw a guy land like 6 on Urien, I could only get 1.

ummm it’s hard. just try for it. don’t expect to get it alot with out mucho gusto practice. I haven’t practiced it in forever, and I miss all the time now. Sad. And it works on Hugo, Alex, Urien. wooh.

so ya saying it’s more luck than skill?

no. It’s more like “has the difficulty of an unpractical combo but is completely practical on 3 characters”… or something like that.

Fucking CHUN-LI. Help.

Chun-Li…that’s a real big problem. When I fight Chun I focus A LOT on my ground game. Drill kicks will only go in when I have my SAII (Slam Dance) ready for blasting. Slam dance is the best choice imo, because she will often get next to you to try and preform a crouching mk xx saII. Wake-up supers are great for this.

She is focussed on her priority and ground game so when you get close the changes are pretty big that she’ll pull out :hp:'s or crouching :mp: and :mk:, so an early :qcb: punch (depending on the distance) :lol: can do wonders

Hope it helps

You have to be exceedingly patient when playing against chun-li. What you need to focus on in the begining of the round (when chun-li has no meter) is getting in, alot of chun-lis will dance outside your poke range and build meter with back fierce. If they rush you down they are helping you so we will ignore this. So anyway if a chun-li is walking around back and forth pressing back+fierce what to do? well a good thing is to just slowly walk forward, and try and push her into the corner. Now eventually you’ll get into the range of that forward fierce, which sucks, cause it’s so fast. So what would I suggest bait that shit. It’s slower to recover so you have a decent chance of punishing it and here’s what you do to punish

  1. as it whiffs jump and lk dive kick, to get you next to her. Be prepared because if you land funny there is a chance you may just get back fierced, alot of players will fluster a bit though and you can immediately land and jump and go for a rh dive kick which will setup a nice rush down patter for you (hopefully chun doesn’t do something crazy like parry it)
  2. if you preempt the whiff a bit you can sweep her. hard to do, and not really the safest bet, but try it, you can then proceed to close the distance as you’ve knocked her down.
  3. you can bait it and then walk forward a bit and parry that and go for a jab tornado hook to knock down and then continue a rush down pattern.
    Now if you really start pushing chun-li into the corner she may try to jump out. be prepared with either a quick back+fierce or elec or you can randomly poke the sky with down+mp this move is hard to see coming and even harder to parry, sticking it out every once in awhile will catch her when she attempts to jump alot (this works on every charcter btw)

So thats the basics, you’ll need to tailor some stuff depending on the chun-li you are fighting but that works pretty well.

Now when she has meter, well this sucks. If your above plans have gone well then you have chun on major necro lockdown and she’s getting scared and really you shouldn’t have to much trouble finishing her off, but, you will eventually end up in the situation again where she has 1 or two meters stocked, and you have 1 or two meters stalked and what do you do? Well this is where it can get a little boring and more than a little hard to win. I shit you not I believe Necro’s absolute hardest match to be a chun-li stalked with super. SO now you have to start playing footsies, what moves to use. Your best friend in this situation is cr.jab, any time chun li whiffs her cr.mk infront of you, in a way so she just barely misses, cr.jab xx super her large ass. And then start to rush that shit down again. If she starts to try and spam fierce, try and do the same baiting tricks as before, except you need to not do the sweep one, because if you miss or she blocks, your fucked. If you think she’s gonna do fierces in rapid succesion and she whiffs one, you can hit her out of the second one with a premptive s.mp, this is hitcheckable to super so if she blocks it, your good, if you hit she gets fried. If she starts rushing in because she thinks you’ll turtle up, hit her out of her dash with back+mp xx super. Basically you need to be very patient when she has meter, and if you ever knockher down, you have to keep up your momentum and finish the bitch off, because there is a good chance you may not get that oppurtunity again.

Oh and just for fun, if you ever get to parry part or all of chun-li’s super, finish that bitch off with back+rh, s.mpxx super, that hurts and does alot of stun. Plus it looks cool.
