What character doesnt need to rely on footsies?

Not sure what you mean by this, since Rose is almost purely a footsies-based character. She’s like a more agile version of Chun. Her lackluster fireball is made up by her dominating pokes at a variety of ranges, both high, low, and as an anti-air, and her slide provides almost an auto-frame trap.

Thats exactly what i mean, shes a footsie character, but she excels at it, so it makes it easy to focus on other things while maintaining a good footsie game, which is what the OP is looking to do if i understand correctly.

I think I understand what you’re saying… Instead of trying to find a character that doesn’t need footsies, use a character with footsie tools strong enough to overcome the player’s weakness at footsies.

answers of ibuki are wrong. answers of any character not fuerte,viper,seth are probably wrong as well. the character that stays away from footsies the most is fuerte followed by viper followed by seth. ibuki is somwhere in there, but its low. she definitely as to footise as her only means of getting a knockdown is to actually play footsies and engineer a jumpin or dash in, and every once in an extrememly blue moon a random neutral game tsumuji into a knockdown. she needs to use her slide, her cr.mk and her cr.mp buffer as well as her sweep in order to gain knockdowns and maintain a proper zone. abel as well has to play footsies with his st.lk and his f+mk and the very occasional cr.mk and sweep.

fuerte is all splashes and fake splashes and some focus attacks. viper is burning kicks and mp seismos. seth is divekicks and wall jumps.
viper is the “best” non footsie to good character ratio. fuerte is bad so even though he basically has no footsies hes also not a great character. seth actually has to use “some” footsies.

the clear winner here is obviousy viper.
with bonus points for not having to think on wakeup.

Ibuki does have some footsies, but generally speaking they aren’t as important to her game as most characters. But yeah, dead on with Viper.

This is like asking which car in a driving game does not require steering. Footsies is SF and SF is footsies.

No…not really…but ok…shout outs to fishing for “likes” though.
You obviously didn’t understand my question. I was asking which character in the game doesn’t need to rely so much on footsies. And i think viper or seth is the perfect answer. Im not asking how do i play this game without footsies. Just which character doesnt need to rely on them so much.
But hey , this srk …so i guess your kind of retarded response should be expected.

Yes…very much really…but ok…

Welcome to SRK! Where most of us don’t need to ask other strangers to play the game for them in order to figure out which character does what…and no one is so afraid of footsies that they make it their #1 criteria for picking a character. Good luck with that little handicap. I’m sure it will help you go far in a genre that revolves around footsies.

For a guy that needs his hand held through the oh-so confusing and rigorous character select screen, I also wouldn’t go trying to call anything or anyone “retarded”.
