from what you did in that video? play against a kid online who mash d1 all day while they are in block stun lol but yeah i have good reactions so if i see this, and i think mosp tried this on me as well, poked out easy.
thats a scrub doe.
Against a high level player that you have conditioned not to press buttons its block string mania.
Its similar to what batman does but with cancels instead of stopping mid-string.

yeah i suppose :) i just can't wait till the hitboxes are addressed, the flash would jump up a tier literally.

YES!
Why not just make them respect your D1/D1D2 then open the 50/50 Game?

after B22-RMC they HAVE to Block a D1. If they don't catch on to that then great you get free combos but if you condition someone to respect the D1 you have your 50/50 game

I've also been working on the spacing for MB Sonic pound that leaves you point blank at +11 on block and 35% combos on hit. If done right most characters can't even back dash out of the way without eating a combo. So yet another way for flash to get in off a bar of meter a get his 50/50 going

This also somewhat solves Flash's issues with characters that out range him and lets you safely punish back dash's with full combos (on read of course)

Dude I love where your head is at, people writing the Flash off left and right and your still breaking beakers in the lab
Thanks brotha. I refuse to downplay. I will keep trying to Upplay in the hardest times, because when the hardest times are over, and the new buffs are given, I will shine.

i've been doing that for a week now, its great you picked that up.
I've been trying to get my RMS cancels and working on jump ins

And why just do "one thing"
when you can destroy the opponents mind with other things...?
I think many things is better!

yeah i've been trying this as well with the MB sonic pound, sometimes when you hit them you land behind them even though they don't get him from the other direction, this is the spacing you want on the sonic pound MB. i was going to do a video but this character dependent and i think stance dependent too :( am still testing though, but if your on psn we should get into an online practice session and test it out :)

I've beeen doing MB sonic pound as a counter zoning tool For instance..
if their projectile is a mid or low....
SONIC POUND DAT NIGGA CUZ YOLO 54%
WAIT A DAMN MINUTE.
Did I just unveil a secret that actually pushes flash up a tier????
:joker:
 

Mosp

Noob
man i still think RMSC is a gimmick until they patch this NIGGAS MIDS!!!!! Mosp when you were doing RMSC did it even work on me except for when i tried to poke back afterwards to test your reactions? btw Mosp plays flash now, he's pretty good with him so far, i like :)
Not really but I'm still getting used to the timing online :( . I just like the options I have afterwards because if the d1 hits afterwards and I get a 58% combo most of the time the opponent will respect that and I can do all sorts of gimmicks after a blocked b22 RMSC lol. Not to mention it's just really fun to do. We should play more though, I'm trying to stick to Flash 100% in all matchups I definitely have the most fun playing this character out of all the others :)

yeah we will play soon :) am not on right now because am about to hit the hay, but tomorrow we can definitely get more games and if i knew trying to play REO last night was a lost cause because of our connection differences i would have never left. but i've been waiting to play him since ect 5, just never had the chance.

pro tip to flash mains:
Use sonic pounds on reaction to mid/low hitting projectiles.
GG Flash top 5 :joker: his sonic pound is the key.
Nightwings ground spikes exposed....????

i know :( i can't freaking connect to him, he's like the only person, its weird how routers communicate, i need to figure it out so i don't have to wait till next tournament to play him lol

You should try to record the matches when you figure it out. I'm curious to see how you do against his Scorpion.

i will, i don't have to much scorp experience but i have a general idea of what i want to do. how did you do?

You're over matched.

Make sure your routers net is set to open. Or set your game ip under dmz this free your ip up to everything.

i did both, nothing my router is type 2 when i test it, and am wired. also my console ip is under the dmz in my router setting page.....still couldn't connect.

Well I hardly ever win but it always close matches. I got bodied in the beginning but I've learned the matchup since then and do a lot better. It's frustrating though because you can't play against Scorpion like you would any other char. B22 and any kind of footsie game is useless and you can't pressure him on wakeup with his flip kick so you have to take advantage of teleport punishes and use a lot of EX SC to get your damage but that's just from my experience on the matchup. You might find something different that I haven't discovered in the matchup yet so that's why I wanna see how you adapt and what not.

ahhh okay, yeah i would play way more defensive, try to make reads on when he will jump, but not teleport and when he will try to bait an anti air with a teleport, and i will try to punish every single blocked tele with 61% or every baited tele with neutral jump into 63%. but thats just my game plan who the hell knows what would happen in a real match.

DGOD PSYCHO i honestly don't believe B22 RMSC give +6 more like +4 :( maybe just +3, idk am literally doing the cancels perfect and i can't beat out lex's corps charge with standing 2, only with standing 1 and d1. if you can post a video of you beating lex's corps charge with standing 2 then i'll believe it but it seems just like how i tested it back in day 2, it will beat out normals but not specials.

Trust me when I tell you the NJ to punish a tele will rarely (if at all) punish it because most of the time the teleport is on a read if he sees you jump or whatever and the teleport is super fast. You're almost forced to go in because he will just be building meter all day for EX TP and hellfire you all day until you start approaching. What's the best punish for Scorpion's teleport by the way?

i do b22 into sonic pound for max damage once he hits the ground like in that video. also you can do 21 in the air into b22f3 LC or 32 LC. and i would try to get the life lead to have scorpion come to me. it sucks but the flash is strong when the opponents come to him.

Seems like a tight window to land that B22 but I'll keep practicing it thanks for the video :)
