It's actually not just lag. WW b1 has a weird hurtbox. You can d12(+8) then follow up with a 33 which starts in 14 frames so technically it comes out in 6 frames yet she can trade or beat it consistently. I don't really know what's going on here but tested it and I lost majority of the time. I believe it may be a slightly disjointed hitbox or b1 has invincibility frames or it just has ridiculously good priority...who knows

This is so dumb Arggg! lol

Yea it's a MU that's slightly in her favor imo simply because she controls air space, completely shuts down wake-ups, and manages meter so much better, but I am ok with the community calling it even, because better stance management will almost always be the victor.

It has more to do with where her hurt box is in comparison to the hitbox of b1. If you play KI...their practice mode offers this as an option to see. Its the same reason her d3 avoids overheads.

I believe the MU is 5-5 on paper...but if you abuse these hit/hurt box issues that she has over most of the cast, you get the sensation your fighting sonic fox's mileena. her ability to avoid damage is retarded. This might make it in her favor.

PSN NWs vs Starchargers Catwoman (probably the best on PSN)

@ICED_MOON22 vs Catwoman

@Chongo vs Catwoman

@Dja_Homies vs Catwoman


Very good job by everyone.



I'm going to ask Starcharger if he can let me do a FT10, he use to wash me when I was new to the game but I feel like I leveled and learn a lot, I want to see how I do and it was interesting to see Chongo, ICED and Homies style of play...they all approach the match up in their own way.

yo @TaffyMeat wanted to figure that Doomsday match up.

Was wondering if @Sajam could break it down for him, I know Sajam has been running games with SonicBoomBrad since the beginning of time, I don't know anyone else better who could fundamentally break down the NW vs DD MU for Taffy

I'll do a write up for that MU later tonight when I get home or sometime tomorrow. It's a hard MU to understand at first.

Ok guy's i need alot of help vs WW so any advice on the matchup would be good.
Or if any of you now a good WW to vs that's awesome.

I know Sajam will definitely be able to help you with that. I'm sure he plays Filipino Man all the time and I've seen him bust out his WW in some shenanigans. But generally, its just...hold the same amount of weapons she holds :p Escrima vs Sword/Shield and Staff vs Lasso.

What specifically opens you up in the match up? Her air mobility? The f3 oki bullshit game? I struggled with blocking her air mixups and figuring out the gaps in her pressure for a while. Haven't played Goomba in a while, so imma stray from any real advice as it mayyy be wrong now

Filipinoman bro. Not sure where you're from but, as you already know he's in socal. So the connect would be a lot better than fighting foxy, i think foxy's from narnia somewhere cause the connection = migraines :)

You can add him from my fl,the dude is pretty cool and im sure he'll be more than willing to get a nice long set in with you.

Pretty much exactly what I had.

A few of my numbers changed because people wouldn't stop yelling at me until I changed them, but looks good.

The Flash number is a little sketch. And WoWo doesn't feel that bad but maybe that's just me. And Batgirl being able to duck NW's normals in staff sucks.

I really don't feel that Raven is so hard for NW to warrant a 4-6 raven favor. If you guys get the life lead, nothing is stopping you from turtling in staff with ground blast. I'm not saying I play the MU perfect, but I'll never know considering a certain NW player, who will go un-named, refuses to play me.

Trust me, nw wins it.

Wowo is just a better nw, I used to think it was 5-5 but maaaaaaan she has so many options. I'll do writeups when I'm not on my phone.

I go back and forth between 5-5 and 6-4 babs everyday

If I said it was 5-5 Ducky would crucify me lol.

so you do think it is 5-5 then? I think Raven might have a slight advantage, but I haven't played it enough to really say for sure. Lets play tomorrow?
I think it's a close match but raven probably wins.
