Strategy Nightwing General Discussion (1.06 and on)

[macro]

I don't know how Cyborg does against Sinestro and Zatanna. It seems like tough match ups for him due to Zatanna having a counter to everything Cyborg has and Sinestro being a faster full screen character.

I'm like the minority here when I say NW vs Zod is 5-5, but everyone else thinks its 7-3 favor of Zod. I heard Zod gets in Cyborg's booty for free.

I think best character for NW's bad MU is probably Raven and she's sooooo boring to play with =[

Cyborgs got GL. lol

I'm might pick up Batgirl for Nightwing's really bad MUs (Don't hate me), she seems like a fun character

Ugh this. I play against BA usually and every time I try to follow up D12 with F213 I do it too late and BA walks back far enough that F213 whiffs completely and I get punished.
Every. Single. Time. :S
2 frames my ass.

Maaaan, it's painful.
Black Adam's back dash is something that makes me legit want to quit this game.

After all that work you did to get in range and finally successful let out a D1, Black Adam escapes and gets a free B2 into plus city where you have to be submissive because your character has inferior footsies, spacing and mobility to a high tier like BA. That would match up would be less annoying if NW had arial mobility in Escrima and didn't walk like a pornstar after a gangbang in staff.

Batgirl is a very good character with a lot of madness. Plus that Dick's Pre-52 girlfriend so it's kinda like using Dick but just his main piece.
I may join the darkside and pick her up on the side as well lol.

My friend who mains BA tried to pick other characters against me the other day. He was surprised when Flip Kick started crossing up and when Flying Graysons started catching his jumps he was so confused like why is that shit suddenly working?! Lol I HATE PLAYING AGAINST BLACK ADAM.. Nothing works :'(

I've been using cyborg for a while now. I'm really liking his mobility and lame zoning.

It can be so easy to win with him at times. Ground fireball footsies is super fun because it's a mid. Grapple is fun to get out and trolling with trait is hilarious

 

[AssassiN]

Played with MMH and Batgirl to pick up as secondaries.
I can't get used to MMH's playstyle while winning with Batgirl doesn't feel as good/satisfying.

Sup guys. Check out my new Nightwing Tech:

It's a Dream Catcher. The Native Americans believed that having one of these would give you peaceful, beautiful dreams.

I suggest all Dicks that play in tournament wear one. For the struggle is too real....

F213 xx 4 then either hit-confirm into MB GP or SS if blocked. Good strategy?

Then you lose a potential mixup between Flipkick & GP. It's fuzzy guardable, but is still a mixup

I get d1'ed waaaaay too much out of F213 xx 4 xx GP. I stopped trying to do it completely.

That's when you do SS, as if they try to poke they get hit

I don't know about that man, I do like 10 F213 xx 4 xx SS in a row, they respect it every time, then I try to catch them with a GP instead of SS and I still get d1'ed.
It's just so easily reactable. It's either indeed that slow or I am doing the GP too late.

D1 gets them out of GP pressure, if you read they are gonna D1.
You'll have to do a delayed Staff Spin to punish any mashing because a Staff Spin done at the earliest frame is a true blockstring. It won't be a full combo punish but it's something, if your read is wrong you can MB it for more pressure.

 

[Chongo]

You have to mix them up also, whether it be the 2 options listed above, or mb Flipkick, or just do the full string then backdash and whiff punish if you can. Can't get too repetitive

 

[gpmoney]

played @Dirtylova ..... you picked Damian.... I thought we where better than this. side note........ so many flying graysons.... lol also that wasn't me ducking the NW mirror I just picked up WW and no one was online to play.

 

[gpmoney]

dont do it. I tried and failed. she is too yolo. try WW or MMh

 

[Braindead]

How about KF as a secondary? She does well against Sinestro, don't know how she does against Zod though.

I try not to but when I get irritated I go to Batgirl for sinestro. still get bopped lol. I hate being zoned in all games

 

[HeroesNZ]

I've tried WoWo, I find her so boring lol, and I don't like MMH as a character, he's too goody-too-shoes lol

 

[gpmoney]

oh yea she is boring but GODAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO HAVE A REAL D2 lol. best part of playing her for me. its hard to find a character that dose as much chip dmg as NW and is fun to use. There is always AM lol

You mean, so many unblocked flying graysons. Is this all you remember from that lil set, I guess staff does that. Ggs dude.

@macro Ggs to you to. We played quite a few sets recently. For Flying grayon, dont hold back and down, just hold down. Let me fly over you and punish. The thing with this is,once ur conditioned to to hold down "anticipating my FG", I will either j1,b2, or stance cancel mb'd spark < leaves you in block stun for whatever setup i use to get back into staff..

Oh, and im loving you're anti FG tech haaa!! I stole it AS we we're playing..

 

[gpmoney]

@Dirtylova I kept trying to react with D2 ;'( failed horribly lol
