what about blanka guys?? im having a hard time with offensive blankas, aside from zonk on wake up they kept the pressure with j mk cross ups, fake cross ups, etc… also is EX RK the only way to punish blanka ball??
Cody can’t do anything to Sim, it’s looking to be a 10:0 match…
vs sim you have to turtle very hard , throw rocks, and punish his mistakes.
but i agree with you it’s hard !
the key is to be more patient than him.
I’ll give U1 a spin…I like U2 better bc of the distance it gets & chip damage. I’m tring to find those rare moments when U2 can hit as punishment for slow normals and is executable on reaction.
I’m in agreement about Sim, he’s a nightmare. When it comes to Blankas I try to Zonk through everything and if I get an Ultra I attempt to make them use a horizontal ball and punish with U1 (this seems to work often enough for me anyway).
use ultra two once you get the timing to punish blanka balls its cake
i would imagine random ex ruffians during one of sims pokes would close in the distance and even if u got hit well ur still almost in his face
way i see the matchup for cody is to just get in by any means and taking damage because once ur in u won, since OS U2 kills his telly escapes and once u corner him…shenanigans time!
@,@ how do you OS U2,just when i think im figuring out OS some1 throws me a curve ball
same inputs u would use for any os just input the u2 motion after ur jump attack
wasnt this mentioned either in this thread and in the combo thread?
oh ok,i didnt see it my bad… >.O
Hm, I’m not getting on with U2 at all for some reason, but I’ll get into Training Mode asap and try this out, ty (:
I play Juri , Also. Simple… Bait her.
Gonna try some matchup specific stuff soon.
Also we need good info versus some more matchups.
If he is going for splash/tortilla then I don’t think he can hit you with either if you b+mp. Other than that Fuerte is all gimmick, if you can figure him out then it’s all over, or better yet never let him knock you down.
In the Dhalsim fight i like to throw rocks jus outside his HP range in order for him to start his fireball game. It’s really easy to dash in -> U2 against Sim’s fireballs on reaction. You can also use the U2 for OS against wake up teleport or backdash like it has been said before. Try not to just run into Sim’s limbs, especially if you have the life lead since they can take away a lot of you life quickly. Your ultimate goal is to push him towards the corner. When he is at the corner, NEVER JUMP IN against him. He’ll get a free slide out of the corner and if you are down on life you are basically fucked.
When he’s at the corner, use f.mp and c.mk to keep close to him and keep pressure all the time. Keep it up with frame traps and tick throws but make sure you confirm your combos since any combo enders you do can be punished by super and maybe sweep + he gets out the corner. Watch out for the slide since the next thing he’ll do is try to throw you into the corner so he can get out. Got a few replays against a good Sim of me playing this match.
Also, i have the most clutch replay of me playing against an El Fuerte. It was glorious.
I heard his crack can hit his limbs
you can neutral jump hp his cr.HP and you got a free knockdown. very usefull.
What the hell are you supposed to do against abels rush down and mix ups?
Lose. :sad:
Doesn’t work. I constantly get hit out of my EX Ruffians when I fight Sim. Having a hard time with character that can run away well.
neutal jump and get the first knockdown or lose:sad::shake::sad:
