Worst match-ups

No wai gief is 2 ez. My brther plays him and i throw rox lol.

hahahahahahahahahaha! Good shit, sir, good shit.

A good Bison smacks Cody’s face in hard. Dude just has too much priority everywhere. It’s a nice challenge, though.

Gief’s frustrating in that so far, I’ll spend 60 seconds zoning the hell out of him, and then he gets one knockdown and kills the hell out of me. Gief has like fifty options up close, and all of them lead to me losing at least a quarter of the life bar. So even BAD Giefs will win out of sheer randomness.

Everybody, to be honest, but mostly Ibuki and Ryu.

Cody has a few bad match-ups but I honestly don’t play at that high of a level, where the match becomes dedicated to the matchup. I’m a humble rank C player (almost B woot), and Most people I play will just fight me 1 v 1 , sure they’ll abuse moves that are more likely to work, but they aren’t putting in the kind of complete effort to lock me down.

My main problem comes from people that are set on zoning me out the entire match. It is the worst with Guile and Akuma. What are you guys actively doing to close in the GAP on a sonic booming guile. I can FADC thru a few of them, but usually i’ll get in and get tagged by a normal, and im not fast enough to differentiate between a normal boom and an EX. So far i’ve only gotten lucky against these types of guiles. The real patient ones will just SB, if i get close via air, AA Normal or flash kick.

Akuma was never too much of an issue before, because most Akumas I’ve played follow a knockdown with some mixup, and if i guess right, block appropriately i’ll get my chance to counter attack. Last night though i played an Akuma who just did air fireballs, followed by a S. HK , some shorts, a grounded fireball or 2, he made sure not to get any closer to me then he had too, and i pretty much just died… any advice on this?

As a Rufus player myself since vanilla and playing almost daily against a really good Cody, im sure rufus is one of the worst matchups for cody.

I am having a hard time against scrub shotos. You know the Srk hurricance kick spamming ones… My main thing is besides landing BNB… I some how manage to eat more dumb shit than necessary

please note… that “I am having hard time”

Dhalsim however seemed pretty one sided :\

I don’t know about everyone else but I think the simple answer to Cody’s woes from a dev standpoint would have been to KEEP his dodge move intact. I remember reading that the move was axed in favor of Bingo because it was “broken”. BS how many characters have a dodge/counter move now? IMO it was more about giving the move to their pet Juri who’s already lightning quick:/. This simple dodge (w/a forward/back dash attached) could have given a nice boost to his anemic wakeup and rushdown vulnerabilities…oh well.

anyone with a decent fireball. Ryu, ken, sagat, akuma. When I play cody I feeling like Im fighting bowser from smb…you know…just avoiding fire balls and chasing opponents about.

Having some issues against good Dhalsim players.

I’m of an opinion the only character Cody might beat is Makoto, and even then… doubtful.

Dan-Cody is 6-4 for Dan

UGH, last night played a amazing dhalsim. It was one of the hardest match ups ive had with cody yet. The guys name was cheerytuba he had a A+ Sim. He destroyed me, but it was in red bar. But even offline i see that cody has alot of problems vs sim. Still once i got in i couldnt do the damage i like to do cause i drop easy links on the net. And online its easier for dhalsim to run with teleport.

zangief is too easy, and abel isnt hard if you can escape get up game. I think guile maybe a serious problem. But it has to be the right guile. He has to play super lame. I used to think vega was hard but recently i learned how to counter his shinanigans.

Abel isn’t hard? let’s play tonight

ok, but maybe not tonight. If not tonight, tomorrow. Ill send mesage when im ready.

double post

Cody is not that bad, hes a solid mid tier character and I can assure you he has the edge over dudley, for example.

seriously all u do is bash cody, im not goin to argue wit u b/c u seem illogical just drop him if u think he sucks n stop trollin

Well my problems with bad matches with Cody is M.Bison, Vega and Blanka right now.
M.Bison is just a beast if you know how to use him unless you want to use three moves. (Seen some really bad M.Bison players do that.)
Vega is a pain in the butt when it comes to flying like superman, claws behind you and grabbing you when you jump or on the ground too.
Now Blanka is a pain also, I have fought many many Blanka players but out of 2-10 they did other moves, their ultras and combos.
But all they really need to do it the shock, Ball forward and Ball to the air to win.
Besides that I have had no problems with any other characters but losing to great players.

Cr. MK beats a lot of M. Bison crap.
Zonk wrecks Vega.
Block Electricity and punish, blocked forward ball can be punished by EX RK.

You can also punish blocked forward balls with lk Ruffian. Gotta block it standing though.
