Its the same argument that any player that plays against Blanka has..."he counters everything i do." I personally don't care if you rage quit on me or play lame against me or whatever. Do anything you want...only a game. I'm only pointing out the nasty rep you have cause you consider everything lame and RQ on everyone lol
I've never seen anyone, ever, complain that blanka counters everything they do. I think you are making up some false equivalence. The complaint against blanka is about his electricity spam which is equivalent to fireball spam. However, like you said, it's just a game and I don't know about you but I don't play games to get bored. Do you? I play for fun so my reputation means two things to me- JACK SHIT!
Everyone complains that if you go wild shit on Blanka, you get killed. Seriously...its how Blanka was made. Jump at him, eat ball, slide, or electricity. If he jumps and you jump, eat fierce punch. Blanka is a BITCH to get near I play for fun but I can have fun against any style. You once complained you found TenOnez boring cause he was cautious...TenOnez, Nero, NY CHinatown...pretty much all S-tiers play cautious cause its the way SF was meant to be played at high levels
That's complete BS! Yojjo, didn't play "cautious" and I'd lose to him all the time and never RQ'd on him, ches who recently started using bison doesnt play cautious (and he will soon be the beat bison on volt) and I don't RQ on him (I did when he played sagat though), alucard plays mutiple characters and he plays every single one of them rush down (and I lose to him all the time), hieu, for the most part, doesnt play "cautious" and I lose to him all the time, cyraxtheone typically plays rushdown and I lose to him all the time (and the one time he didnt play like that I quit on him, after losing a match). And tenonez doesn't play lame, he is just a master baiter and is too damn good! And if playing lame was how the game was meant to be played at the higher levels (which is complete bullshit) then why are non "s tier" players playing lame? Because they think they are good? Lol give me a break! No the issue is that people don't like being called lame. When I first started using blanka everyone would complain that I would just turtle (if it's just a game why complain?). Playing lame is turtling with skill why can't I complain? Oh right because I refuse to play against that style and I RQ on people!? But when you rage quit on people it's ok because you are "win quitting", so your rage quitting is ok and justified but mine isn't? Lol ok. The difference between me and most players is that I'm up front about it, I don't hide behind stealth accounts so I can rage quit freely (Haroldskingdom), I don't use stealth accounts to see what you are going to do. I don't win and run and post the replay. I don't post all my wins against a player. No instead I tell people I don't like lame game play, whether it's me doing it or them doing it and that if it's a strategy you intend on using through multiple rounds or matches I will RQ on you. And I do, sometimes I'll be losing and sometimes I'll be winning when I RQ. If I beat you I wont post the replay unless you post a replay of your wins first. If its a good match and you didn't post any replays then I'll ask if I can upload it first. If it was all about winning then I'd have a lot more RQ's under my belt and you sure as shit wouldn't be seeing low BP players posting replays of their wins against me.
Man, this reset is even sicker than I thought. It's character, timing and normal specific. For example, vs. Ryu, reset with cr mp never crosses under, but resets with both st mp and cr lk cross under depending on timing. Vs. Sagat, however, reset with anything DOES cross under.
I never said playing lame was how high tiers play it. I said cautious and it depends on the character they are playing against. YYOJJO played very cautious last time i played him using Cammy...completely changed when I switch to Ryu (but that could be cause my Ryu really sucks ). Hieu COMPLETELY TURTLES against me when i play Cammy. he is stuck in db mode And when did i EVER win quit against you! hahaha. I haven't win quit in a looooong time and really never made it a habit (unlike Harley). And to clarify, i'm not judging you. I'm just making fun of your reputation as a guy who RQs a lot because he finds everyone LAME hahaha. I find a lot of noobs play lame because they just don't know how to attack. Big deal...i just let the match end and politely decline a rematch. Just like with lag...i either end it at the beginning or i end after the match has ended. Is it really that hard to be polite
There is a big difference between a noob playing lame and an A tier playing lame. I don't RQ on noobs unless they aren't even trying. If they are trying and still being destroyed I will use another character. However when an A tier player plays lame there is no excuse (even more so when they play with handicaps). And I didn't say you win quit on me (although you have RQed on me) but you have stated that you have win quit many times. The point is an RQ is an RQ no matter what the justification is, you have your justifications and I have mine. I don't pretend to be a saint nor a role model player, nor an s tier player or the best blanka (I'd like to be), I have my way of playing and you have yours, something's I do are or are not polite and somethings you do may or may not be polite, who are we to judge? I have no ill will towards those that play lame. If you have built a reputation of playing lame (to me) I will screen quit when I see you, but after a while I'll play you again to see if anything has changed, if you have, great! But if you haven't then the cycle repeats. And I don't find everyone lame you are free to think that but that's just not factually correct.
Blanka definitely is hard to approach if he's far away and holding charge. That's when it's dangerous and foolhardy to try to get near him, because he can counter anything from there. BUT! Blanka is vulnerable to cross-up vortexes just like any charge character. If you get a hard knockdown, cross him up, and you can play the mixup game with his ass all day. You just have to use block sometimes to counter his ex upball, but if he doesn't have ex, go crazy. That's just how they balanced the character. (Which is humorous because I used the word "balanced" in a Volt thread ^_^) They made him difficult to approach from afar, but gave him fewer options to deal with rushdown. So technically, the two BEST ways to fight a blanka are either playing lame and forcing HIM to approach YOU, or by playing rushdown and limiting his options. And since one of those two is Shane's preferred style to play against already, just do that! And THEN win! <3
I haven't RQ or winquit on anybody in over a year In fact, the only time i ever quit is if my connection breaks or i get a phone call I admit to win-quitting a few times in the past...especially against people that have RQ on me in the past More likely than not, i win quit against TA members more...because i know they won't hold it against me As I said Shane...i don't judge you. In fact, I LIKE when you play lame on ranked against my Cammy...some of the best Blanka matches i've ever had I'm just poking fun at you because you get all green and beastly when someone plays lame against you
Exactly! And when you, 3-chord, play rush down they are some of the toughest matches! Sure I lose, sure I get salty about losing but at the end of the day I look back at the match and think, "damn! That was fun!". (in my opinion you've become a better player because of it)
I play lame because I'm not good enough BUT that doesn't mean I don't try playing more aggressive, because I do (that's why you win).
You should cross reference it with my list of floaty reset chars. I have found a Sagat only crossunder reset, oddly
Absolutely. You were one of the people who forced me to learn how to rush down, which was something I never used to do with vega. You, and whoever it was that first used cosmic heel to cross me over during vega mirrors. I don't know who that was, and I've never seen ANY other vega player do that so far, but that guy pretty much taught me the best skill ever.
It doesn't seem random to me. It's just a quick move to cross up an opponent who was knocked down. It's akin to using the blanka ball to cross up an opponent. Very handy
Block? BLOCK? Go for Karakusa everytime damn it!!! Really sick reset. Not only because you it's safe if you block, but also because you have lots of options after st/cr.MP. You can cancel it into Hayate and bait a SRK, cancel the Hayate and punish. Or use dash instead of EX Hayate.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA!! But that's true. It's like Zangief. Play lame or you will have a really bad time. Don't forget using manual guard against rushdown Blankas. They loooove using slide when they see you jumping.
Do you guys mean when the opponent is knocked down? I'm talking about how randomly on a crouching opponent, cosmic heel sometimes goes completely over them and whiffs or crosses over on block.
