Standing jab has more range than standing short. Plus…
s.LP, s.LP --> 2 frame link
s.LK, s.LK/s.LP --> 1 frame link
You can’t always be doing d.LK, s.LK xx super out of nowhere. A lot of the times you’ll need to link those three light attacks to get your charge. No need to waste time memorizing that character specific height data. The way Sigley plays, I’m quite sure he could care less anyway. Just know…
-low jump HK
-low jump, land, d.LK, s.LP, s.LP xx super
Option A or Option B. Pick one. Easy, and less head explosions that way.
What’s the best Vega after A-Vega btw? I’m going to go with N-groove. He has all that low jump nonsense in addition to being able to RC. Vega doesn’t need airblock in my opinion because not only does his jump back HP beat everything already, but he is also one of the few characters than can punish Honda headbutt without having to use chicken block.
i’d say eagle’s best grooves are C/A because they actually do damage, and you don’t have the problem of the last hit of a level 3 whiffing because level 2’s and CC’s are safer. linking into CC is fairly easy once you get the timing down also. RC mp lariat works well against crossups, you just have to get it out quickly. vs far-ranged jump-in’s, you can jump AT them with jumping mp, or just block. and i’ve stressed in my eagle thread the mixup of the crouching lk to start a combo low instead of just super jumping away with mk all day. and that mixup isn’t low jump/groove dependent, which is nice.
the problem with eagle in P/K grooves is that outside of a sweep, eagle doesn’t get too many knockdowns, so your guard bar will whittle down even more with a reduced guard bar unless you can JD or parry really well. but i’ve never seriously considered K-eagle because i don’t play K-groove, so i don’t know what i’m missing out on.
i’ve written entirely too much on eagle in the beginning of this thread and in my eagle thread, just go searching if you’re really interested.
and P-vega is solid as hell too. low jump is huge, parry helps with awkward AA problems, and stored super makes his low jump hk or low short mix more potent because it isn’t quite as telegraphed.
it’s spelled “eloquently,” but good try attempting to look intelligent/witty.
K-rock is good because of his mixups, being able to JD a frame earlier after a jab elbow, and he benefits greatly from lots of level 3 supers. look in the rock thread, there’s a whole bunch of info on him there.
you must’ve gotten “eloquently terse” from an SAT prep book, huh? at least you spelled fuck and popoblo right though, well done.
peace
PS- if you want to geek out and send me a PM to flame me, then you’re wasting your time. but let’s not start a stupid flame war so buktooth will have to slap us on the wrists.
Why would I PM you? I really didn’t have a problem with you, and I guess you stopped liking me after that “dark horse of cvs2” comment kcxj made, which I laughed at. I always thought you were a cool, nice guy, but then you had to bring on the hate, which was completely uncalled for.
idk, that’s usually what the mods say when a flame war looks like it’ll start. “take it to PM’s…” and i could care less about the dark horse comment, each person is entitled to their own opinion.
i just don’t like when people mis-spell big words trying to look intelligent, that’s all. even if you weren’t trying to, i just had to point it out.
k-groove rock is the shit…but then again k-groove anything is the shit anyways, as i don’t think any character would have k-groove as their worst groove.
k-groove still benefits him in letting get an easy crouch light kick at any jd, at a relatively safe distance, for a safe or hit rekka.al though he does lose roll mixups…s loses it too…but dodge helps. unfortunately,ioris level 1 supers suck ass…and trying to land a k-groove level three super is more beneficial…therefore, i find that s is the worst groove for iori.
what the fuck, didn’t think id offend a jackass like you by mispelling…i was trying to make a point to somebody else…and im drunk and stoned as fuck. so excuse me mr. for not providing u with the best written english on the internet, but this srk, and im in my (albeit short) christmas break, and i frankly don’T give a shit.
