I'd grade myself at C+, or B at my best. Although sometimes, I lose to fireball spam because I can't keep my head straight, so then I'm probably D+ at those times...
Hehe, working on the Yun guide. This is so much more fun than I expected! Although if you could give me some tips on the match-ups, that would be great. Haven't fought em' all with Yun yet. Edit: By the way, could anyone tell me what they think of my Yun guide so far? Any changes you think I should make? I'm going to continue on it later.
laggy games all day today with the exception of a few early this morning. It makes life so tough for Blanka, especially with this wierd charge reversal issue in this game that prevents you from ultraing block chains. Someone jumps in? My ex-up ball is instead just me holding up, because a lag spike basically invalidated my hold. Worse is when you don't actually know if you have reached your charge because of lag spikes throwing off timing. So much easier to just mash forward + sp for a SRK instead of up + SP and hoping that the charge was carried through the lag. Gonna run with Ken for a while and see if that helps
Thanks for the matches Temka. I actually think my Gief went up a tier midway through the set. But yeah, I pretty much only play Blanka these days against non-laggers, unless I want to have some fun. Waiting for Adon. Gonna go cook some dinner.
yep, thanks for switching to gief for our games, i really clueless about blanka matchup and your blanka is in addition too annoying. and your gief is definitely better, i've should probably play more hk and sk and that's all, but your gief has more variety now too. also it feels like my bison is too rusty, previously i could at least do something to your blanka and now it is different.
I wanted to play more, but it was pretty late and I was tired. I think you have an edge over me though. You beat me 5 out 9 yesterday, and 6 out of 9 the time before that. What was driving me crazy is that so many of Blankas moves take priority over Viper. I was like WTF when I found out sliding punch beats EX Seismo. Its frustrating playing against a good Blanka, but I think I learn a little more everytime I play against you. I would also rank myself around the B/B+ range. My current BP is definitely not accurate though. I have 3700 BP because I got matched up against one of those BP hackers with millions on BP, and i gained like 300-400 BP from 2 games. My true BP is probably closer to 3000 and I would think your true BP would be higher than 2400.
As Blanka, viper has the capacity to really screw me up. Make sure you make good use of your low kick + horiz thunder knuckle BnB. Use flame kick a lot. Your seismo is not the best choice in this match due to slide and ball, so use it only when they are doing elec or focus attacks.
We had this discussion rather late last night so I wanted to put it out there again for people who may have missed it, if you are interested in writing up a guide for your main character for our character guide PM me so we can set you up with the user name and password for the site so we can get a resource out there for all the new Volt players. *Cough fffan, Nullroar, Shoryutofu, Ken l Ken Cough*
If guys like ivwshane and Vaceotyn are B's then I'm a probably a C- or D+ I dont play ranked anymore stopped because of ragequitters, I got the 1500 acheivement and haven't played a ranked match since, so I dont know what my BP would be. But against players in the 1700-2500 range we tend to be evenly matched. But anything higher it tends to get very one-sided in my opponents favour. Also I have a mental block against certain characters in the game that tend to beat me most of the time, regardless of circumstance which would probably put me at D+ against those characters, and C/C- against everyone else.
I do use crouch kick > medium thunder knuckle when in range but burning kicks aren't so effective against Blanka. His air attacks, rainbow ball and diagonal ball have priority over burning kicks. Thanks for the tips though.
Yea its pretty good. Jut maybe add a combo section and a matchup section as well. Im adding all the frame data for cammys moves, but thats not completely neccessary, so you dont have to do that. I dont know yuns matchups that well, but ill help you with the setups/mixups section when im done with cammy. Edit: You can combo after ex palm anywhere on the screen, but you have to be near the corner to land ultra.
Yun Guide looks good man, basically what Snooper said is all you need. The Fei guide is coming along nicely I'm almost done so if people don't step up for other characters I'll probably take Ken next.
Sourai Rengeki would be invaluable to Yun in this game. :/ Edit: Capcom buffed some of Yun's moves, thinking that he'd work better if they just buffed some of them I guess. For example: Console: EX Kobokushi (160 damage) iPhone-: EX Kobokushi (180 damage) Console: You Hou (375 damage) iPhone-: You Hou (405 damage) Oh, and Yun actually DOES have his Standing Medium Punch. Problem is, it's at the end of his Target Combo 1, so it can't really be used. :/ Edit 2: Found a cool new Yun combo, but it's a meter wasting combo. Nice to execute though. Zenpou Tenshin, Close Standing Medium Kick, EX Tetsuzanko, FADC (FADC only works on the first hit), Dash Forward, You Hou, EX Tetsuzanko. 445 damage.
Playing a little bit here at the la Quinta in mobile, alabama! Free wifi! Ran into jibba online, first I played him. Pretty good Dhalsim. Wireless is pretty meh here tho, games got laggy toward the end.
Good games DROQQA. Very nice Sagat youve got. it definitely got pretty laggy in the last two matches but still enjoyed them.
