The SFV Lounge: SRK is ALIVE. AE Hype is BACK! DISCORD going the way of DISCO

The shading on that image is shit.

There’s not a lot of Tionishia fanart that I haven’t already shared so I have to make do with what I find

That’s why you get commissions.

Did a quick gelbooru search. Yup, the Ogre has shitty pics. I guess she attracts the weird artists like how Juri does.

From what I’m seeing here Menat vs Guile doesn’t look too good for Guile. It’s probable that she even wins the match.

Basically Guile has to play her game. Once Menat can get the orb out near Guile it’s tough because if he tries to throw a boom and she calls the orb back he gets hit and then if he wants to throw a boom she’s likely in position to throw the orb. The orb also clashes with and destroys the boom so you have to worry about an orb that can frame trap you from full screen that will clash out your booms. Then have to worry about a reflect sending your boom back if you even get one out. Basically Guile isn’t winning this match unless he gets in and those are the matches that Guile goes even at best or loses at worst.

She can even reflect the V Skill which is his main way to start offense from a range if the regular booms aren’t working. Which allows her to use the V Skill to start her own lockdown. That’s just way too much disrespect to the air force man.

I wouldn’t bother with Guile in this match TBH. Either find a 3rd person for Menat or find a different second character that can deal with all 3 well. Ibuki does pretty well vs all 3 IMO so she wouldn’t be bad.

They definitely nerfed his axe kick not to link to solar plexus. The obvious reason being that this combo probably would have been possible -

Solar plexus - Axe kick - st.lk xx donkey kick - DP juggle.

I assume that would have worked or just a straight cancel out of axe kick into donkey kick.

Aaaand that combo would be dope.
But definitely not honest.

That’s pretty much what I figured. I was thinking of pocket Kolin for that situation but I’d rather just have 2 characters that I focus on.

Problem with Ibuki is as I mentioned before, set-play/mix-up style characters just don’t mesh well with me at all. And I really didn’t like fighting Chun’s neutral with Ibuki either.

…the more I think about it, the more I think Zeku is the only character that deals with all 3 well enough (I know Windalfr likes Zeku as a good character to complement Ed). But I don’t like playing Zeku either…ugh.

Maybe Falke will be my savior and I can just go team Neo Shadaloo. But that’s quite a ways away.

that combo is way too marvel for Ryu.

Yeah your best bet then is probably just use Guile any ways as the second and hold the L when Menat shows up. I mean how often are you even going to run into her?

I never see any Menats in ranked (or casual) any way and I don’t play battle lounges except on request so that’s even less likely that I would see a Menat. I’ve been grinding ranked a bit last couple days after I lost some points and the Menats are just not out there. I fought Orangeman’s Zeku (and got blown up), almost won the set vs Ultra Diamond Fang and even finding a decent amount of Ryu’s. Found all of the other DLC characters at least a few times, but Menat is just not there.

I guess that anime execution for her V Trigger is scaring a lot of people away because at this point I’d have to find a Menat player to put on my friends list to play one. People been playing unga Rog and Laura so long that there’s no way for them to learn range game/anime combo Menat.

More than 4 hits and Ryu becomes an anime character lmao

We’re not even getting started. If you can V-trigger cancel mid way through that combo - extend it, then cancel into super…

Like this might even be possible now -

Solar plexus - cr.fierce xx V-trigger st.fierce xx Donkey kick - DP xx critical art.

That’s 3 fierces, two special moves and a critical art ( that stuns).

We talking Old or Young Zeku? Because you can have a solo form as a sub. It works.

I see y’all trying to keep Honest Karate Man down.

Solar, Axe Kick, Donkey, DP Juggle which is pretty much corner only wouldn’t be a problem at all.
Landing Solar isn’t exactly common, so this is pretty much his Stun combo.

And it still works on CH, so if you want to see for yourselves that the damage isn’t world-breaking, test it in AE.

Wouldn’t Ryu just be able to use cr.hp and cancel into DK instead? Is the link to s.lk really that big of a deal?

Also Volt I’m pretty sure solar plexus doesn’t benefit from landing as a CH.

F.hp, cr.hp doesn’t work unless you hit it really close

that shit would be dope

but capcom overlords won’t allow it.

Lights dont combo to donkey and i believe only ex gives wallbounce

But yeah axe kick is probably nerfed because even tho its ex that combo exceeds non Abagail damage figures.

On a side note I’ve been playing mgsv:pp and I gotta say this game has to be made by aliens it runs insanely well

He doesn’t eat ass yet and that’s probably his major problem…
