LOL. You think I'm talking tough, but it doesn't mean the same to you as it does to me. I miss having that love. Back when it mattered to me, winning at the rate I was would have been euphoric.
I know. Believe me. My mind just wont settle. What i want in a character changes from match to match and day to day. This is a legit problem, but if I force myself into a character.. I dunno. sigh. So here is my honest list with some small breakdowns
Rashid unsafe? I think he can play in a risk reward manor but it isn't necessary imo. I really don't think Rashid has too much of a weakness tbh. His neutral is good, his corner game is great and hes got great corner carry, you can't jump on him, you can't really zone him easily, he's got good normals and pressure. Idk I've only been playing him for 24 hours so
Above Urien and guile?
I honestly thought Laura struggled in neutral.,
Well, cr.hp is -2, st.rh is -4(? I swear i thought it was -5) which I understand, but it still sucks cause this button is amazing, you can do 400+ damage off a CC if you have two bars. Your mixers are all death on block except non-mashed light. Now, based on your post I looked it up, for some reason I thought lp mixer was -3, so you could punish, but nope -2, so I need to revise my thinking somewhat, that being safe gives him some wiggle room. But still, his little tornado mini-fireballs are -5 lk, -2 mk, +1 hk and +6 ex but if Im not mistaken, have gaps depending on what you cancel them from, etc. Eagle spikes are negative 6million but if spaced right can safe vs many characters because you bounce back so far they cant take advantage, but not vs everyone.
You think Guile is boring?? =O
Play how its most fun at the time and you will get the most out of it.
Im just speaking for the matches Ive watched played, since I dont play her to any degree.. but she can do so much. st.mp is an amazing AA, or her AA grab when possible. If she gets a little room and can get a fireball out she can advance behind it, jump, sweep, crossup jump, catch YOU jumping with her AA grab.. She has a great low confirm into elbow thats negative on block but safe and puts her point blank, good range on the cr.mk too. ex shoulder has armor to get her in range of her normals and when she is. st.mk is disgusting 5f startup deceptive range, combos into jab into light elbow which starts her silliness (+2), Its -2ob according to my phone app but I see her spam the shit out of it and no one ever seems to challenge. st.lk is +3 ob, so is st.mp. St.hk has great range and is an excellent, straightforward CC button.. She has one of the highest damage, practical whiff punish normals in the game in F.HP, you can react with it to punish whiffed normals from a pretty crazy distance, hit confirm it into itself for the TC and end with her AA grab for like either 265 or 285 damage. Its a lot for the range and utility. Her OH is slow as christmas, but in trigger its like .. +1? and has great range and will CC. Her command dashes are amazing for baiting and couple that with her f.hp and its super dangerous, couple it with the fact she gets meaty pressure off of literally everything she has that can knock you down.. and you have a character who doesnt *want* to play neutral but still has a tool for almost any range or situation and numerous ways in to her kill zone.
Agreed, but sometimes just raw fun isnt that successful.. I know that sounds dumb but hear me out. As an example, I played, I dunno, 3? ft5s vs @FL Rushdown a day or three ago and I picked Ryu. I had meant to go in and really try, but then I started enjoying myself and just fucking-off. What came of that was a clean sweep all 3 sets, where I managed to take something like 2 rounds the whole time. I had a ton of fun, but that was at the expense of really 'trying'. I spent more than one entire round trying to do nothing but throw, for instance. 3-4-5-6 DPs in neutral back to back, just silly shit. I enjoyed myself, but I wasn't taking things seriously. If Im buckling down and really trying to learn then most characters in my list are about the same in terms of how much I enjoy them in a serious environment.
That either sounds like a terrible idea or a bad tongue-in-cheek joke.
I wasn't telling you to play for fun. I was just saying that I struggle to understand why you're having issues selecting a main when you actually have a pool of characters you enjoy and can already play to some extent. You just sound uninspired to me.
If you are still in range, yes you should be able to I believe
Yep. Example is kens jab is +5 on hit and it combos with chin buster which has 5 frame start up.
I'll play a few. I'll be on in the next 15 minutes
k cool if you want you can just send me a invite or post here CFN: Smeg_Dis
Do you also think she's also too hard to fight for a majority of the cast? How would you fix it?
