As a Ken and Makoto player, I disagree. If you’re Ken, you should keep the fight mid-screen; don’t let Makoto land Lucky Parry xx 100% stun. Ken vs. Makoto should be mid-screen, with plenty of low strongs thrown out (c.MK recovery allows her to dash in). If I’m a cornered Makoto, and I see my opponent crowding me, I’m happy as hell. If I’m a cornered Maktoto, and I see my opponent retreat mid-screen, making me come to him (he’s now dictating flow of gameplay), I’m out of my element.
lol or if you guess wrong you can stay in the corner.
vs makoto is all luck, trust me. even some scrubs can randomly srk out and turn the match around.
but yeah if ur not sure, if you have a makoto corner, just walk back, see what he does. then kara throw or c.mk or something.
Don’t stay too grounded. One karakusa can easily mean the end of the round. I’ll gladly eat a couple of fierce hits if it means I avoid getting SAII raped. Also, Makoto’s strength is random, so don’t whiff things unless you need to. Lots of even high level Makotos will resort to random SAIIs when they get desperate and if you whiffed anything longer than 3 frames, you’re going to get hit. She has very little response to corner pressure besides that random SAII so watch for it.
Don’t keep trying to parry her jump-ins either; you’ll just get hit with random tsurugis.
If you block a hayate, you can punish hard, so make sure you do. Also if you get hit with one, you can usually get a jab out before they karakusa or hayate you again.
All this advice is trash…that is all
this coming from the guy that says you should **NEVER **recover roll, eyah ok :rolleyes:
stfu u fucking faggot this coming from the guy who knows this advice is fucking shit u want some advice on how to fight makoto here goes"
a) pick a character that is good against her like chun, yun, ken, etc.
b) do moves that go otg like chun t+rh
c) jump a lot
me i keep it simple…keep that dirty bitch away from me and try to catch her off guard. i tell you I TELL YOU!!! SHES A FILTHY BITCH…SHES NOT EVEN CUTE
nothing feels more degrading then losing to a makoto. so many what could’ve been and what should have beens. its like getting molested and violated so bad you quit your job and start doing crack.
i know. it feels bad getting beat by a makoto. thats why i tell you…I TELL YOU…SHES A FILTHY BITCH!!!
your best bet is to not stay in one spot too long. listen to a lot of what 2hai said, mix it up between jumps, shoryus, and dashing back is also a good option when you’re waking up with certain characters, and in some post hayate situations. try not to block too often, the majority of this fight relies on luck and guessing… both for you, and the makoto you’re fighting. i find fighting other makotos is a unique experience.
edit: keeping makoto in the corner is the best way to fight her, she can do nothing but block/tech throws… or guess parry. don’t get predictable and get guess parried into karakusa which leads to super which could lead to stun or some mixup that’ll get you stunned. utilize throws a lot if they guess parry. also, don’t do anything that involves jumping near her when she’s in the corner, she’ll just dash under you and get away, leaving the one spot she’s weakest in.
she is cute 
more like fucked up match for yang :tdown:
NOOOO…SHES NOT CUTE…SHES ALL ROUGH…SHE HAS A PENIS…SHE SCREAMS TO MUCH…I BET SHE NEVER HAD A BOYFRIEND ( althout i would take her out anytiime if she was real…lol ) SHE GRABS YOU IN THE AIR AND KARATE PUNCHS YOU WITH NO MERCY…SHES MEAN…SHE NEVER SMILES…AT LEAST ELENA AND IBUKI SMILES…SHE NEVER DOES!!!..EVEN AKUMA SMILES SOMETIMES!!!
Lol @ “EVEN AKUMA SMILES SOMETIMES!!!”
how to beat makoto? anti air her. makoto’s love to jump. also throw her, makoto’s love to guess parry.
jump and parry
also if you’re really desperate to parry something, 90% of makotos moves at anything but point blank are high parry :X, just tap forward then block low
oh and makotos a slut
are you sure tapping forward and blocking low works? wow i never tried this before.
dont jump at makoto trying to parry stuff, thats stupid, she has a million ways to hit you if you randomly try to jump at her. jumping straight up is good sometimes if you predict a dash, but watch out for axe kicks, it’s extremely difficult to parry.
i agre that jumping at her is dumb…i just up and down or i meet her in the air with dudley’s j. strong since it beats her j. forward…
guess correctly EVERYTIME BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
yeh shes whorish.
you know she has a SGGK that parries correctly for her? ino was doing something where if you do a move, the game does the correct parry into command grab, if you do nothing, she EX axe kicks. sick.
os parry works on everyone
its just super easy vs makoto since her only good low move at a range has a long start up.
im bad at it though!
