LBSH
no one will ever bring those characters to a tourney.....

I can see where you could disagree with Rain.... but those other fish he's got correct.

Not CSZ by a long shot.

LBSH I wouldn't lose to none of these character in tourny. lmao you wouldn't dare play any of these characters with your tournament life on the line besides Rain. Anyways cyrax is broken easily destroys all those characters

 

[Jimmypotato]

quit down playing

cant wait to see him in action at SCR man

 

[YOMI DJT]

Not CSZ by a long shot.

Lmao csz what can he do vs rax?

Exactly the same shit he does in any matchup that doesnt involve iafbs.
Cyrax as a character doesnt have anything that stops how CSZ is designed to play. CSZ doesnt have to take any risks really.

 

[BillStickers]

IMO some of the fish numbers are slightly off, but overall this is a much more realistic MU chart for Cyrax.

Denzell Finally, someone who understands!

It's bad for Sheeva but probably not that bad. I'd say 7-3 maybe 8-2 at worst case scenario. I beat decent cyrax's often enough with her and I'm not that good to pull off near impossible wins with her.

Csz is viable enough to get destroyed by rax get out here with that csz talk.

i must disagree with the Rain matchup, i feel it's a 6-4, but rain being able to take meter is huge here, plus rain will always build meter for breakers quickly from his roundhouse pressure.

Edit: 7-3 kung lao? why do you feel it's so advantageous?

could be a little better for sheeva but what exactly can she do to make it better maybe 8-2 at minimum. rax can d4 under all her fireballs. air grab all stomps. abuse her hitbox and use every mixup possible. this match just seems too easy for rax

thats nice but so can rax and rain wont be building that much meter unless he gets close but cyrax clearly wins the footsie battle. 7-3 rain wasting meter won't make it that much better either.

Finally a REAL cyrax chart. Good shit Denzel.

But I think KL only loses 4-6 and only bad mu is kabal

Rain doesn't need meter for his huge damage, and cyrax doesn't get much without it outside the corner, EX Roundhouse having super armour makes footsies difficult, and rains standing 4 is a problem. from my experience anyway.

Hey Denzell in detail why do you think Cyrax Rain is so bad? I've played Krayzie, Dquebeats, and plenty of good online cyrax's and I've never felt it was worse than 6-4.

na kl's air game is completely shut down. he can do no jump tele mixups at all he has to stay on the ground. he cant trade either. he can't take as many risks as rax. one spin equals 70-100%. lbsh rax vs lao is 7-3. lao playing defensive vs rax won't get him the win

Cyrax really doesn't have to do much vs rain to win. rain can never waste meter. he can't take as many risks as cyrax. rax has better offense/mixups. Rax outfootsies him. Rain just has to be too careful to beat rax. All rains tools aren't enough to keep up with rax. rax just gets the better of everything. its a manageable 7-3 for rain.

Edit: 7-3 kung lao? why do you feel it's so advantageous?

lao can't jump at all and work no tele mixups 100% no no vs rax. lao zoning is no where close to good with those slow hats. he can't trade. cyrax doesn't have to throw nets. that is the only time kl can get in. everything kl does can be punished crucially by rax. Kl sitting back trying to be defensive run away from rax won't be enough to beat this machine. Rax can be way more riskier than kl. its just a super hard mu for lao and pretty easy for rax. I would say 7-3 maybe 6-4 more of 7-3 I would say.
