"We finished practicing now?" Cody Match-up Thread

dunno who said lp rocks but definitely is a bad idea on guile (it does have its other uses dont neglect it)…But rocks from far mixed with lk ruffian at a well spaced distance will get you in the safest. i think what u said about playin defense is right tho

why the hell is slideing under ryu and guiles projectiles so inconsistant…either u can or u cant…jeez

on another note… after playing the seth matchup quite a bit with more then 3 good seths im willing to say its 6-4 in codys favor

  • Jumping Heavy Kick beats out his jumping heavy punch

  • You can slide easily under his booms just like you can goukens…

  • cr. mk slide stuffs his wall jump bullshit easily

  • Ex zonk tears thru everything he has and most of all his block string combos for major damage…he cant really reset you all day because of ex zonk also. he cant dash and throw you as long as your holding it cause it could blast right thru his piledriver. the damage alone will cause him to never try again

  • you have rocks to keep him away and or close the distance. Forward HK jumps over his low sim HP

  • One wrong dp on wakeup with a fake rocks = ultra 2

he has to turtle…and you can match his turtleing with rocks…its pretty much a done deal for seth versus cody if they take his jumping HP away

I just need more exp vs Seth. I like using knife in the matchup. Great stun, damage, and chip damage is too pretty.

I’ll have some good updates coming soon folks been in the lab vs some characters.

Heres one i haven’t heard gone over. ROSE.

I love that rocks can’t be absorbed for free meter but her stuff is so alien its off putting.

Anyone have good exp with this match???

Imo it’s 5-5… You can easily punish her soul spiral thing with cr lk into whatever…u can match her zoneing also with rocks if not beat her out. Nothing really too difficult you can out poke her also and I find their slides to be of equal strength.

5-5 maybe… A poorly spaced soul spiral yes, I play rose a bit myself and punishing soul spiral is much harder than one might think. Rose players will not do soul spiral so it is unsafe. Whether they throw two or three or four pokes in a string before they do it regardless they will make it just out of punishment range. Even then, I honestly think you can charge zonk and release it when she attempts to throw out soul spiral. Since it most time is always maksed behind a string unless they hit their link, but even then they can miss the link and your still ok.

Versus rose I see it like this, She does not have an honest reversal except like U2, and you can bait out EX soul spiral and on block it is hella punishable. But then it becomes a battle of frame traps. : \

I dunno even after about 2 to 3 hits it’s still way more punishable then most characters…imo it’s easier to punish then when I use cammy …codys leg is long as fuck. 5 - 5 definitely I haven’t been able to zonk between soul spirals I don’t think it’s possible…i only play competent roses…and it feels like a complete block string into soul spiral so I just block and usually am able to hit the tip of her with cr lk …the problem is how codys cr. Lk feels that shit has no feeling to it .

Yeah, I see what your saying. I’ve been spaced out by rose so that my cr.lk whiffs and I eat a cr.strong into soul spiral. I play a couple good roses myself. One of my friends is like top on rose leaderboards as well as playing several other good ones. So I was just speaking from experience… Of getting punished everytime for it.

well it’s always a gimmic but besides the shit were talkin about I think it’s fair

I’ve never hear d this covered. Though i think i have an idea of the match. Cody v Cody.

Like fighting any rushdown except if you rushdown first you win right?

about reading the frame traps imo : D

So ummm. . . awesome?

what’s so awesome about that?^^

It’s not revolutionary but it’s pretty cool, I think. A nice reminder that Cody has that kind of option to bait and avoid certain ultras.

what happened

ex zonk vs fuertes u2. since ex zonk is throw immune fuerte just slided agaisnt cody and cody whiffs his zonk knuckle since fuerte is on the ground.

meh…good to kno I guess that ultra does a lot of damage

well you could simply jump on reaction ^^

backdash, i only Cody actually got distance on his backdash like how zangief can backdash dodge abel u2.

Hi fellow prisoners.
