The Official Luffy Support Thread

No luffy you played great :slight_smile:

Body Air. Don’t tell him I said that though :confused:

Louffy you were awesome, you and Johzear made the tournament for me (even though both you guys are out). I missed the 5v5 cuz it was 5am, so i didn’t see what happened in that

Luffy rocks! Thanks for repping the scarf, you did good my friend!

Luffy made 4 glaring mistakes; he threw away the match against Jozhear…

He made 1 glaring mistake against the Blanka player, but that shit’s random.

And Mago just was thirsty for blood.

I’m very unhappy with how the match against Jozhear played out.

And I’m extremely not jovial about how the commentators were really disrespectful against Rose like the whole night :/.

I heavily rely on the jabs chained into c.lk linked into c.mp combo. I wonder how you’d play without it. It’s solid damage and a knockdown from a confirmed jab.

@jozhear match: that second round was the worst bad uck at the worst possible moment. He had it, but got a soul throw cancel which ofcourse whiffed and was punished with maximum strength

proving that: everyone hates Rose :wink:
which proves: Capcom isn’t gonna fix her :wink:

even on pad that link isn’t hard. Though these days cr.MP>whatever is overall better IMO.

Hitconfirming from jab off of a cross up is much better than just. cr strong.

Louffy’s on a tear right now. Only Leslie’s left standing on Team Singapore.

Congrats Louffy for almost single-handedly eliminating Singapore!

I’ve never had a problem getting cr.strong off a crossup. But then again I always got deep crossups with Rose so I ended up not having to dumb down my damage with cr.jab>cr.short>cr.strong>whatever.

actually, off a cross up, the hitconfirm does 8 more damage than just cr. strong spiral >.>

And the hitconfirm is a much safer option. after cr. strong, you’re committed and can be punished with Shoryu if your opponent is good enough (-3 on block).

100% correct on this.

I initially started off with Akuma in Vanilla and midway through Super, so I’m too used to confirming off of jab already lol.

I happened to test how unsafe a close c.mp to any drill actually is. If it’s LK drill you are in a world of hurt (+5 frames punishers), if its MK drill it depends on spacing but usually medium attacks can reach you fast enough, if it’s HK drill you are ok, but it won’t combo anyway from c.mp.

I abuse c.mp to drill as pressure tool, so it was good to know. You need to space this right or good players will counter hard. If you use c.mp after a crossup and getting away with it I think your opponents don’t know the matchup. Even if you dont do the drill the frame disadvantage is too big to get something else going.

Good players recognize that it’s hard as fuck to do a true blockstring after a crossup attempt, and they will reversal you usually. A good example would be Bison’s j.mk, that gap is so wide after you block the crossup.

It was nice to very briefly meet you at CC, Louffy. I regret not getting a chance to play you though =\

Luffy,où peux t-on voir tes matchs de la Canada’s cup, notamment contre la team Singapour?
