yup
I hate trying to get in on Chun li as T. Hawk. Bitch’s thighs are too meaty.
Hmm. It seems that this is too confusing for you to understand, so I’ll put it in quote on quote “Hugo terms”.
-
You said something stupid
-
I called you out on it
-
You called me a scrub because you couldn’t think of a comeback
-
I laugh at your continuing stupidity
You know what? I’m done. Please don’t respond because I feel my IQ dropping every time I respond to your post. Have fun trolling everybody else.
You would be right, If I was the person you origionaly thought said something stupid. I just called you out on responding to a post that several other people had already addressed long before you showed up. You should work on your reading comprhension, you seem to have dificulties following conversations.
I doubt your IQ dropped any lower then it already was, scrub.
THE ONE THING I DON’T LIKE ABOUT THE FOCUS ATTACKS IS THAT IF YOU PARRY PROJECTILES…
YOU GAIN LIFE.
THEREFORE, IF YOUR CHARACTER IS A PROJECTILE/FIREBALL CHARACTER…ONCE YOUR OPPONENT STARTS FOCUS PARRYING YOUR PROJECTILES CONSISTENTLY…IT SHUTS YOU DOWN.
SINCE NOW YOU DON’T DARE TOSS OUT FIREBALLS SINCE THE LAST THING YOU WANT IS TO HAVE YOUR OPPONENT GAIN THEIR LIFE BACK.
SEE, THAT’S NOT RIGHT.
I DON’T MIND FADC GIVING YOU BACK LIFE AFTER SUCCESSFUL PARRYING BUT ONLY FROM CLOSE HAND TO HAND COMBAT. NOT FROM PARRYING PROJECTILES.
I’M NOT SAYING THAT FADC SHOULD STOP BEING ABLE TO PARRY PROJECTILES/FIREBALLS…
BUT THAT IT SHOULD STOP GIVING THE OPPONENT LIFE RENEWAL.
sorry for caps lock. didn’t notice i had it on and when i looked up at the screen i had written too much to go back and start deleting.
How the fuck does one gain life from focussing projectiles? I want to learn…
How does one gain life? Shits deep bro.
i mean FADC fireballs.
Edit:
well, now that i check some of my replays i guess you don’t gain life…but you don’t lose it either.
i’m still not sure if you gain life if your health meter is low when fadc fireballs but i’m not sure. too lazy to continue checking replays
but i mean, the whole point of throwing oiut projectiles is to zone and control space and use em for set ups…
but if lets say a good non projectile character like blanka or guy can get in on you without jumping but by fadc the fireballs…no point in throwing them out.
thats not fair for projectile users. yunno, not being able to use that fireball special move.
so now zoners can’t zone?
whats a zoner to do then?
You gain ultra meter for it. And I’m pretty sure you die if you try to absorb more damage than the health you have left.
I slightly agree though. As a gouken player there’s absolutely no threat to anyone at full screen since every fb is 1 hit and obvious when its 2. But absorbing too much damage is incredibly risky. The possible reward of 2 ultras a round is a bit much considering the utility of some ultras.
you gain meter by using fireballs and it can still be used as setups
zoning is not suppose to bring damage to your opponent. It’s more about controlling space
Calling Focus>Dash a safe way around Fireballs (as Juri, too!!) is pretty laughable in the first place…
Zoning is more than just using fireballs. You can zone with normals as well. If you took away Ryu’s fireball, you’d still have to deal with his SRK, cr. MK, cr. HK, f+HP and other tools. All of these moves control space
Yeah, well Splendid Claw got nerfed too.
Which means our wake-up and AA options are even shittier than before, which is amazing considering we had the shittiest to begin with. No one should depend on an Ultra to win, and unless your character can combo into it then it should be plan B at best. Fuck having I-Frames on an Ultra, Rose has I-Frames on an EX special move which she can use multiple times in a round to get her out of trouble from jab mashers, carefully timed AA and wake-up.
Vega has no I-framed offensive move, which means if your crouch tech game isn’t absoultely A+ then any moron that can jump-in on our wake-up and mash jab and throws for endless mix-up possibilities. Mashers are usually the easiest people to beat but not if your character can never go on the offensive because every fucking move you throw out is stuffed by a fucking jab. Did you know our EX-Scarlet Terror (flip kick) can be stuffed by a jab? Yes our EX SCARLET TERROR. Now that’s fucking pathetic.
All I’m saying is count your blessings…and if you’re going to try to use comparisons to show how your character got the short end of the stick don’t use Vega as a example.
Now that’s comedy.
Games beeen out almost three years and you barley find that out yesterday. I seriously thought you were trolling after I read your first post.
Just getting the knockdown on a good claw feels godamn impossible sometimes. Only chance I have of beating Claw is surviving until I get an untechable knockdown and win off that.
I have a friend who plays a very good Claw. His pokes and invincible backdashes are a pain for me sometimes. I have to play him more and more to learn that particular matchup as Evil Ryu doesn’t have much in gimmicks to rely on to win.
Yeah he is the fastest character overall in the game. He ties with several others for fastest forward walking speed by has the fastest backward walking speed by far. So yeah, it can be annoying to catch him.
Exactly.
I’m assuming you mean his back flips? They are heavily punishable. Any claw who uses his PPP back-flip isn’t very good.
I’m not saying Claw is bad by any means. But he has glaring weaknesses that even the most scrubbiest can take advantage of with little effort.
True. I need to get more accustomed to the matchup.
I’m thinking it’s the lighter backflip. I imagine there’s an OS to deal with that. He’s really good at timing them though (he’s been playing this game much longer than I have so he has more experience with the tech and fundamentals of several characters) he also plays me the most so he’s used to my style.
The amount of shotos
Comeback mechanics
Lack of variety
Focus
You obviously don’t realize how shitty of a reversal EX Spiral is. Not only does it also get stuffed by jabs sometimes, it also loses to meaties, delayed throws, certain command grabs and normals with lots of active frames. At least EX Scarlet Terror comes out quickly enough to beat meaties.
