Erron loses armor before he shoots the grenade, its happened to me plenty of times when I used to main him.
I see. That's a valuable info you guys got. Will need to deal against those with the X-Ray, except of Cyber and Human Sub Zero, which I wouldn't suggest touching.
I thought Dr_3K was Dave this whole time lmao because of the avatar.i couldnt be the only one who was a bit confused last few messages with dave with a new ermac avatar talking to someone with his old avatar lol
Think its 2 within a certain amount of frames like the way normal ex interactables work
Well the problem is.....you see...your facing Mileena with Tremor
Use shatter cancels and throws to catch them trying to poke
Tremor's design has always revolved around abusing f+1,2,1 and punishing low pokes. The strategy was simple pre-patch. In Crystalline, you used to take advantage of the armor on EX low stone shatter in order to blow through low pokes. With the armor removed, you have to use a wide variety of strategies. I personally enjoy the design, which kind of reminds me of Steve's in Tekken. Both characters have phenomenal high attacks, yet they can easily be low-profiled so you have to find counter attacks.
What is the argument?
Not the laughable one you have. Crystalline's strenght wasn't about EX Low shatter alone - it was addition to already powerful tool set he had including flash parry, crystallisation, crystall summon for resets and shit. No offense Dave but when I look at myself, or lets say Tournament level players like RZA, Leoholic, KillerXinok - the difference of character understanding and the way you could use his toolsets are NIGHT and DAY between them and you. From all the videos I saw you in, you were doing same shit all over and over again - F121, F121 EX Low Shatter, repeat. Can't remember you doing a single flash parry for armored/safe jailing, mixups, reversals etc, or crystall summon for combo resets and frame traps, OR using crystall armor for letting the block away and then punishing strings after that - nothing. The most basic Tremor to date.
Crystalline mainly. Aftershock against good zoning char like pyromancer, mileena ethereal or quan chi summoner. and metallic for Johnny Cage, lao & liu !
I played st9rm two days ago, we probably gonna play few sets today before your fight. The man asked me to help him with the MU before K&M stream kek
I have already discussed how EX low stone shatter and EX up stone punch combined were superior to flash parry pre-patch. Of course, flash parry still had its place, and I utilized the tool when I had to (i.e., versus Shinnok's hell sparks).
Except they are not since up stone punch was mostly anti-air tool to get people confirmed for full combo punish if they tried to jump on you, but it was totally unsafe on block against most of the cast. The same armored up-rock punch is still there as you can cancel into it from flash parry to get the same stuff as pre-patch. U can aswel use flash parry to blow people that tries to poke you out as you did with EX Low shatter. I won't even start talking how flash parry is safe on pretty much everything you do as you can end it with F121 or db2 if you don't hit confirm. It costs stamina but it's doesn't matter as you can do most of tremors combos without running by simply applying JI1/2 after successful F121/B33 +DB2D attack.
What they "claimed" looses it's weight as they haven't played RZA's or KillerXinok's Tremors in the first place.
st9rm, RZA, Jupe, Scar, Erronlol, plenty of other some of the best console/PC players there are. But that's not my point - my point is that no matter who you played in the past - you could have done a shitload better if you actually tried to utilize atleast half of the tool set that Crystalline (or Tremor in general) has, not just the basic stuff.
It makes no sense because every variation has it, but when it comes to Crystalline you don't even realize the utility of his own tool set like punishing certain (shitload) strings on block-free armor, frame traps with ex boulder in the corner, regular safe low shatter footsies and shit?
Nobody is talking about randomly spamming EX up stone punch. My point is that EX up stone punch complemented the EX low stone shatter, which opponents attempted to jump in an attempt to bait and punish the move with an aerial attack. EX up stone punch was therefore utilized to punish jumping opponents. This strategy was fundamental to Crystalline Tremor but has been removed.
Will it be on yt? Storm is so stronk
And I don't see the point explaining same shit over again as you are pretty much the most basic Crystalline Tremor there's is out of all mentioned decent Crstl mains.
against pyromancer you would use metallic for gold launches, it wont guarantee total shut down but its his best option against zoners and characters with strong air mobility. As for lava skin i would use that against characters with annoying wake ups because of re stand.. and usually you would use crystalline for some of the ninjas(reptile and scorpion) because of krystallization taking the one hit reversal/wake like slide and strong punish after..as far for aftershock, that variation comes in handy against sub zero and other characters that don't teleport and are mostly grounded...Oh and this is just my opinion and that's why when picking up tremor i had to pick up all three variations as it comes in handy by giving him a better shot at winning over some of his bad mu...
