I TOTALLY agree with you ! The middle range is the Funniest way to play If you want more challenge play in middle range. But as I said, for ME the EASIEST way to win it’s the full screen range. That’s not so fun but in tournament you play for win

Shit… so what else is there; sweep then instant d + MK safe jump and baiting? Baiting seems to work on “medium” skill or lower DJ players. But the good ones rarely fall for it. And sadly, the times I win against DJ players is when I’m really conservative and lame it out. Boring, but what are you gonna do? Thank god there aren’t that many (good) DJ players to be found online…

On forward throw theres no real amazing setups on Deejay because all he has to do is block regularly since for some reason cross up tatsu will NOT cross him up. Off sweep you have plenty of setups, slight step, crossup j.mk safejump or slight delay, j.mk safejump which can be very ambiguous. Palm is always an option just harder to time.

Ya, Deejay falls ‘further’ than most characters after forward throw, which borks up the f throw setups.

More Sako Akuma:

Edit: Derp. Those are Super matches xD

LoyalSol:

I’ll be honest, that is terrible advice.

Here is what most Akuma players don’t understand about Deejay. He needs back charge to punish any of your fireballs, but if he throws a fireball he doesn’t have that charge. In addition Deejay has no way to get in on you that you can’t blow up. Deejay’s best way of generating offense is to throw a fireball and follow it in. Again the key is not to let him do this. His jump is so floaty that the only way to jump in on someone is to use the knee drop, but this isn’t hard to anti-air in the absence of lag.

What you do is to throw fireballs when HE throws a fireball or when he doesn’t have charge. If you throw fireballs at the same time it negates the advantage he gains and also there is no way for him to punish you for it. If you throw fireballs after he has recovered or while he is sitting on charge he will punish you for it. If you play a good zoning game Deejay as no choice except to come at you without fireball cover which is greatly in your favor because Deejay has no offense without that cover.

Not to mention close none of Deejay’s specials that he will use to punish you are safe on block. EX Sobat is punishable by sweep and Deejay doesn’t gain anything off of EX Fireball. Overall you control the zoning game, you control the footsie game, and you control the in close game. You don’t even really need the vortex to work (Which admittedly it is hard to pressure Deejay on wake up). Play good spacing and footsies.

In order to zone well against charge characters you need to understand how they use their moves. In general against fireball charge characters you need to understand they recover faster than you, but you can use fireballs at will. So you need to negate the advantage they receive. If you understand when they can and can’t use their moves it will help your zoning game.

Remember chucking fireballs isn’t zoning. Zoning is the correct use of your long distance move set to make your opponent approach you on your terms.

This advice is golden, and is to key to beating Deejay and, to a lesser extent, Guile, too. ESPECIALLY THE BOLDED.

You’re very knowledgeable, Loyal. I can tell by your mindset and strategies that you’re definitely a solid Akuma player.

Waitaminit… Tokido plays with Gouki using his ENGLISH voice??? :eek:

dr4gz0r · November 6, 2011, 12:22am

Yeah, he seems to like it, iirc he even said “die one thousand deaths” after ultra activation a couple times lol.

More Deejay action. His shit is so easy to whiff punish.

Should probably choose something more damaging than jabs for whiffed DPs though.

Ooooooooooh… I wish I could’ve seen his smug little smirk turn into a scowl of horror and pain when you ultra’d him at the end. The deliciousness of it all… Good stuff!!
