Finally a sensible person on here. Sheesh. It felt like someone threw me into a den of wolves.Everyone needs to take a chill pill and help this guy learn to play his character/the matchup instead of filling the thread with this elitist nonsense and assuming everything should be obvious. Good grief!
Yeah after playing against mileena a little bit more i found that if i consistently whiff punish her jumps and rolls and keep her out she cant do anything but unsafe teleports.Let her hang herself because she has to take risks in many instances to open you up. Jax takes far less risks by design. Jax also puts you in the corner quickly. The only way Mileena ruins your day is if you aren't patient and take unneeded risks.
She blows up careless play.
Such wit there ol' chap! Love your stream by the way.Omg I'm so sorry you have to deal with a character who's 50/50s are pretty unsafe, has slow normals, and god forbid you get hit by a 33 frame overhead. I'm glad there aren't any characters who have longer reach that opens up to mixups, have mixups that are safe on block, and who do not need meter for true mixups.
Happy that you are improving in the match up so quickly . Be sure to abuse her weak low pokes and general slowness as well. Check out as much of her frame data as possible too, see what your options are in various common situations.Yeah after playing against mileena a little bit more i found that if i consistently whiff punish her jumps and rolls and keep her out she cant do anything but unsafe teleports.
Yeah i had a long session with a decent mileena, and i've learned a lot more footsies wise to keep her out. I appreciate the advice.Happy that you are improving in the match up so quickly .

Her overhead is very slow around 30 frames I believe and her low starter is minus nine I think.If she cancels into ex roll or regular roll she's full combo punishable. So either way at worst you're getting pressure in that scenario if you block her low starter and she doesn't cancel into roll.
And without meter she can't throw out those mix ups so watch her meter to help gauge the likelihood she'll go for overhead enhanced roll.
Yeah keeping her out is the main game. In my opinion letting an opponent(mileena) get in is failure.Basically do not allow her the positioning to do the 50/50s for most of the match. As others have stated, Jax's normals will stuff her options up close. The low is a non issue if she has no time to do it. You basically force her to armor and block high. I do not know the match up, but that is how to deal with it.
idk if you realize that she has to take a huge risks.PUNISHING is not a relevant problem in this topic.... I'm talking about defense. Her FIRST hit is a true 50/50 so if you get knocked down you either have to waste a bar of meter(worst case scenario) or roll, and if you block you can't fuzzy it. Plus her low sai and teleport makes projectiles useless so you're forced to creep up and try to whiff punish her roll on reaction which is nearly impossible because of its recovery.

Get use to the trolling and unnecessary insolent remarks brother. It seems imperative for the MK community. They did me the same way before I got to where I am now. Jax is my secondary, so if you ever want to go over tech or mu knowledge shoot me a message.Finally a sensible person on here. Sheesh. It felt like someone threw me into a den of wolves.

Fixed that for you.Get use to the trolling and unnecessary insolent remarks brother. It seems imperative for the internet.
