If you do b.mp xx lk dash, you already cross under them.
EDIT: Ah I switched to fwd dash after throwing out 2nd bomb instead of lk cmd dash and that works. Not consistent with it though, b.mp whiffs a lot for me. Guess that’s why it’s called advanced setup. This is not gonna go over well when I try it on the PS4…
Edit 2: Ok, I stopped doing the extra kunai variant and I can hit it easier.
Edit 3: Nvm, if I hit the ex kunai too late I always end up on the other side. I went back to the extra kunai variant and it works, just need to be done asap, which can be done more consistently.
Edit 4: Ok I’m pretty consistent now, but I think I should find something to do incase the b.mp whiffs. This is awesome though, it stops people from mashing throw too because the timing is perfect.
Edit 5: Gief can super you, but the scenario this occurs isn’t often.
How do you guys deal with people jabbing or throwing you out of your resets? It’s been happening to me a lot today and I’m not facing high level opponents ( quite the contrary ). I feel like most of my momentum swings are from resets and when I don’t get them it feels like I’m wasting my turn and ending my pressure.
Well if you are precise enough you shouldnt worry about it. The only setup where they can hit you out is after a grab, because it is more of a read than a setup and ibuki is not plus+at distance to hit with her normals
it’s happening during mk dashes, far s.hk anti air mk dash unders, and non canceled b.mp AA’s also w/ mk dashes. It also happens in between s.mp -> f.mk TC. So I guess just play tighter and use lk dash?
I guess that would be my problem lol, so i guess set ups where you don’t cancel dashes aren’t real?
also had a lot of people stuffing my ex-kunai -> b.mp reset -> mk dash. I never really had a problem with this until yesterday. I guess since the b.mp only hits once it gives me the illusion that I’ am getting the dash out fast enough
Cancelling into command dash is almost always going to put you at a disadvantage.
st.HK AA, MK Dash is around -8
Literally any normal cancelled into any dash on the ground, is negative.
The best you can hope for is cr.HP xx LK Dash which is still -2.
I see a lot of Ibuki players doing TC xx MK Dash on hit for a reset, but that shit is -8 and eventually people will catch on to it. Not to mention bad players who are just going to mash buttons regardless.
EX Kunai, b.MP xx LK Dash is like +7 so you shouldn’t be getting hit out of that. Although I’m not sure why you’d wanna do this? It’s not really a mix-up because it’s always a crossup. Why not just combo into L Raida? or even air target combo which will give you an actual left/right mix-up when they land.
st.MP xx f.MK target combo is specifically designed to beat throw techs, so yeah it’s gonna lose to people mashing buttons. That’s what cr.MP xx f.HK is for.
Alright thanks thats what i figured. Guess i just need to play a little more “honest” and start using the overhead combo after i apply a few tick throws.
It just feels weird knowing her strongest tools are the resets and mixups but noobs can just mash me out of that shit lol. Guess i just need to work on my spacing game and start utilizing her walk speed
Don’t mix up noobs. Noobs press buttons so the only way you can mix them up is by meatying them. If you can’t meaty them just block and they’ll probably do something that’s unsafe on block and give you a punish.
I find Ibukis st.lp animation weird as well, if you press it you’ll notice she does some strange things with her hands after if you dont press anything. whats that about?
