What's with the blanka's online?

Bryanv2:

My bad, its just I have absolutely NO trouble against other matchups and win most of the times. And then a blanka comes in, that jumps, electric, jumps electric, forward ball (Which Is like unpunishable…) etc etc, and before you know it the match is over. Then you have his ultra, which you have to block like…down, then up then down again? no its only low then high. And which does massive chip damage as well.

And a few friends of mine who are actually pretty damn good have trouble against some Blanka’s as well. And that’s why I ASKED if that was all there is to a blanka game, so that I won’t see it as scrubbish anymore.

Its just so annoying to a point where I made a thread about it yes, cause seriously these blanka’s seem very skillless [and again, I ONLY have trouble against them… Like completely get owned]. But yes, I guess I gotta read the matchup again, Although Im prob sure its 6/4 in blanka’s favor anyways unless you’re good. And that there is no real opening for me to use :

This is the same type of thing with all the Sagats online, who just fireball then strong kick, or knee. (I have no trouble against them btw) only these are worse. Since most of the times I can’t punish and am just sitting there blocking, doing nothing.

And yes it works, but that doesn’t mean they have a clue what their doing, and if I somehow bypass it, I doubt most of them would know what to do, and just spam electricity which I can out cr, a, or w/e which does minimum damage :

That’s all im saying. Doing soooooo much trouble for little damage, while they just charge ahead. But yes, sorry for the thread, although my opinion completely stays. Its prob just a badmatch up for ken, and the other shotos… I mean balrog could probably beat him much much easier.

It might be a ‘‘technique’’ but I honestly think its just a cheap way to beat players, like some sagats, Zangief and those ‘‘type’’ of players do. And the majority agrees about those players that they mostly spam ahead.

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.

I’m sorry you suck and find Blankas simple tactics hard to overcome. Spamming Blankas are probably the easiest people to beat. It’s really not rocket science.

this is hopeless, i think its time to just let this thread die.

It should have died at the OP, but I took a break from Blanka after EVO (and looking at this board).

For real, all I hear is, “waaaaaaaaaah sniff sniff sniff:sad::sad::sad::sad:”

From a shoto player playing online of all people. Who can just block, spam df punch to get out of every offensive string Blanka has. Not feeling sorry for you. Not gonna answer to you for how I play. Am gonna let you know that online is not SRS BIDNESS.

Oh…and going to close the thread. Note for the future: “waaaah Blanka” threads are auto-closed on my watch. Unless Mr.Wizard tells me he is a fan of them.
