The Synergy of Stryker & Jade

Espio

The Synergy series is a culmination of my Stryker and Jade video guides that I crafted for both characters over the course of the month of August. This idea was inspired by playing both of these characters extensively as well as a comment made by GGA 16Bit, although at the time he was referring to Kitana and Sektor, it sparked a similar idea in my head for Stryker and Jade, two characters that are also designed similarly to each other. I had a lot of fun with this series and I hope others do as well, I may at some point add one or two things to it, but as of now the Synergy series is complete, enjoy and provide feedback if you wish <3.

Pretty awesome. Though I can't comment much about this, as I don't play Jade, this did make me wonder how in the blue furnaces of hell I managed to do so well with Stryker and Sektor in the matches I played some time ago online; It was because I was using space control, walking back for whiff punishing, and patience in general, all subconsciously without really having learned it through text. Quite cool. And my recent successes with Stryker makes me realize that I am a zoning type of guy.

Maybe I should pick up Jade, once my life starts settling down and relaxes.....

Bumped.....
When bumping and stuff fails, only one method remains: Tag Alerts! Call in the Stryker and Jade players so they'll get the fuck over here! =D

I can't comment on Jade's playstyle, but I can see the similarities.

Maybe I should start experimenting with Jade in that respect. She has a ridiculous amount of reach.

Yay, I was hoping I explained the similarities well enough, that was my biggest fear as I suck at explaining things sometimes lol.


If you do decide to experiment with Jade, I'd love to hear your input and feedback on the character in this thread for sure and if you have any questions about her, feel free to ask me or come by the Jade forum and we'll try to help you out :).

She's very fun and like Sektor and Stryker' she kicks butt with solid defense and is a very rewarding character like them, nothing silly or over the top either. I'm glad you learned something about zoning and whiff punishing, it's great that you're already on the right track with a solid spacing footsie game from the sound of things. I love footsies, zoning, space control/whiff punishment because I feel it's one area that allows you to constantly grow and develop yourself as a player, it's a never ending learning process, which keeps it interesting in my opinion.

lol maybe you're right in regards to promotion....I might tag everyone in a little bit.
