Your bad habits

Bad habits often lose me matches I should really win. For example, I seem unable to change up mid-round. I’m an Oro player, and I can’t help but constantly use his ex Hadouken. Obvioudly it isn’t a hadouken, but it’s similar. Forgive me, I’m new to Third Strike. I don’t know all the moves by memory. Anyhow, even when my opponent is constantly blocking or parrying the aforementioned move, I still rather try my luck than just block. Likewise, I don’t have multiple methods of setting up Oro’s command grab or his chicken combo, therefore I always do it after downing my opponent. This leaves me vulnerable because I tend to just stand next to my opponent without blocking or parrying. I also waste my EX meter with the uppercut/hadouken thingie. I am new so hopefully I’ll grow out of it.

Any bad habits your trying to erase from your game?

My complete inability (actually pure blissful ignorance) to play as any character online other than Q.

Dive Kicking to much with Yang, cuz I always get thrown no matter what.its like Dive kick try to follow up with cr.MK then BAM! I get thrown; its like everyone has a kara throw or ppl mashing hard as ever lol.

i press too many buttons…its a habit for all my games.

  • I use too many sweeps.
  • I don’t hit confirm air attacks often and try to tick-throw instead. IT REQUIRES LITTLE TO NO HITCONFIRM, I FEEL DUMB EVERY SINGLE TIME…

Expecting bad players to learn from their mistakes and change their patterns after I brutally punish them for something 100 times in a row.

guess parrying too much and getting hit when i could’ve just blocked.

Trying to roll kick with Yang to chip them out.

Trying to play footsies online.

i lold. for me it would be NOT mashing grab enough as soon as im next to someone (online). need to improve on that.

…man, this happens way more than humanly allowed.

Too many Elbows. I don’t stop doing elbows. D:

Wakeup EX Flashkick

Oh wait, that’s my habit that keeps winning me games :tup:

Stay free online

Too many sweeps and headbutts.

Also I don’t do enough Akuma cr.mk xx LK tatsu. Shit is too god like (online).

Entering tournaments sober is a pretty bad habit of mine, I’ll get around to fixing that at NEC

TRYING TO GRAB DIVE KICKS. Not a good idea

I like to parry everything. =(

Getting cut by Ockham’s Razor. I suppose that’s what makes 3rd strike great though.

Not punishing correctly after I parry something, I usually end up with something hella weak like st mp or some shit.
