Lol, it's a really obscure tip. You seem to be new here, but you play Cody, right? What's your GCID? I'm always happy to help fellow Cody players!
Ken: Use tatsu on Makoto in the corner. You will miss 1 hit (out of 5) and go through makoto... But it's ok you'll still combo into 4 hits and it's still safe! What can also happen, is if Makoto is holding back and blocks the tatsu standing, it will go through makoto and cross her over for 1 hit
With Sim, I find the Gief matchup really boring so I usually play extremely aggressively to make it interesting. I lose a lot more than I typically would that way, but it's more fun than just zoning Gief. On the other hand, I really enjoy tough matchups like Cammy, Sagat, Ryu (I can't decide who has the advantage in this matchup, but it's so fun), etc.
Some Makoto combos: (corner only, 2 bars) Karakusa, st.MP, st.MP, cr.MP xx EX Hayate, Fukiage, EX Tsurugi -> 393 damage (corner only, 1 bar) lvl 3 FA, Fukiage, Fukiage, EX Tsurugi -> 416 damage (opponent jumping, 1 bar) Fukiage, Hayate, EX Hayate -> 326 damage
There's a guy who uses Viper that always starts the first round by tea bagging. I just can't believe there are guys like that one in this videogame.
Tea bagging? I've never heard that term used in relation to street fighter. What are you guys talking about?
It's pretty unsafe overall. The EX one has a bit faster recovery and a little more knockback, but it can still be punished too if your opponent has the tool for it. Unless you're comboing into it or you can catch your opponent off guard with a random, or well timed, one, either by them pressing stuff, catching them in a jump, or catching them doing a FA, it shouldn't be done much. That's my opinion of it at least.
I was shocked when that happened, actually LOL'd. For everyone else, I air teleported behind him with dhalsim, he ultra'ed with fei, and my yoga spear knocked him out of ultra.
We were wondering if it feels like it has become more punishable. Now it can be punished by spiral arrow, knee press, cr rh, psycho crusher, balrog headbutt and other slow moves. I feel like its been nerfed. I wonder if you've felt that too
