Match Footage 'It's Part of My Charm' Nightwing Video Thread v1.06

AK L0rdoftheFLY

I hatelove this game
Aquaman verse nightwing is a solid 5-5 matchup.

I played syknis as well before the tournament to get ready for Tom in my pool, whom I never played. The matches went like 4-0 my favor then a bunch in his favor, and then we had to stop.

I didn't zone the way murk did which was impressive. Mb ground pound for the pushback and space and windings/spark for meter. He would build meter and keep him out with mb wing dings and ground pound.

I def learn a ton from watching him.

Step ya stroke game up playa! Cant play NW and not zone lol. The way Murk zoned was good, other NW players abuse it but slow it down to catch people off gaurd. Its legit frame trap on some characters like MMH, grundy, Staffmode NW, and others so you HAVE to stop it. Most characters can just jump out or Fwrd dash after the normal GP. It's good just dont get patterned. I use it to frustrate the opponent into chasing my Dick.

I found a video from Winter Brawl. Me versus that Lobo player @Captain Oxygen. I really wish this game was 3/5 in tournament lol
You need some delay on those mb wing dings. Without it, your wing dings not only aren't as safe, but you lose out on the mixup of you actually mbing them or not, which is especially important if they can punish regular wing dings. You didn't get anything going in staff, which made me sad. No stand 1 into stuff or threatening with ground blast.

Also the first game sucked cause so many Interactables not in your favor :(. Oh, and too many risky wakeups on knockdown got you killed. That's a weird MU though, and I think a different stage would have helped.

I think a bit of fear went into it too, as this was my first match of the tournament and I have never fought a Lobo before at that time.

OK so here is a quick ft10 set of @Shaazzyam aka sajam jr vs me.

@Sajam spoiler alert but this is the new tech Shaazam plans on using to defeat you at WNF. The tech is used @13:20 into the vid. I warn you.... its not for people who have weak stomachs lol

Some really nice confirms in both stances and escrima frame traps from this dude. The lobo player clearly didn't know how to fight nightwing in escrima though (ducking way too often).

I found a video from Winter Brawl. Me versus that Lobo player @Captain Oxygen. I really wish this game was 3/5 in tournament lol

at 2:18 you did mid screen ground spark and he blocked (normally someone who reads it jumps over and goes for the full punish)

- That was a perfect opportunity for you to dash in and give some rush down (B2, J3)

Neutral jump all off Lobo's wake ups. They're stuffable too.

Like Sajam said, this is a weird match up that you haven't been exposed to enough. Lobo gets away with a lot of yolo shit if you're not knowing whats going on. He's very plus once he has you blocking MB Hook Charge. Respect his D1 and other block strings. Lobo can be like Doomsday with high damage with meter so he can't be zoned throughout the match. Probably only 25%

Shazam, Lobo, Catwoman can be a great challenge for NW, those characters aren't the typical lame NW out type characters but their damage output and set up game has to be respected. If you're not getting MU experience against these characters then it'll hurt the Dick game. Its hard to MU exp against all other 29 characters consistently.

Always great to see more NW footage, thanks chongo.

Quick questions here:
At 2:00 and at 7:30, when he connects another ef after dashing to continue his combo. I've tried to get this to connect, and haven't been able to. Do I have to link it from a normal or go right into ef after the dash? This combo has a lot of applications.

Oh, and in your video, that whole corner sequence at 19:29 was SO SICK! Very cool application of the d2 ender to force the quick rise on that last combo.

as soon as the last hit of EF comes out dash and press 1 EF dont wat for it just do it and it will come out every time. it took me a few days to get it down

Here's a set I played with JRosa at my local tournament. Pretty happy with how I handled the Batgirl matchup!

Just going to drop this here.



For the record, I do not think this MU is a "chill" 5-5
This was pretty fun to watch @gpmoney, you guys should post more of these. There were a few things you could do to make this more even such as optimising your combos (kinda hard online I guess), and adapting to what Shazzy was doing - for example he kept IA-dashing out of your frame-traps so you could've done D12 Wingdings more to force him to block them. You also could've baited more wakeups and teleports but apart from that, Shazzy's Martian is pretty beastly so it's def not very chill for the Nightwing player lol

In staff stance, orbs lockdown NW and I can jump around like I'm Batman anyway. Or I can bait an unsafe FG or GP. Or throw an interactable.

i think it's a solid 6-4

U tell me its 5-5 lol and recently we have gone even. This mu is almost all staff pushblock mmh and play it lame. On wakeup if they do teleport flying grayson and full combo punish. Mb b3 or f3 to stuff mmh wakeups and if he blocs i think nw is still + so u can apply more pressure. If u expect air dash u can beat mmh with j2 or j1. Dont be afraid of teleport full screen ground pound can hit mmh out of teleport
