Cassie Cage General Discussion Thread

It combos off f4-1

That's good to know. But if I land f41 I get 26% into restand anyway. Would prefer it just be erron blacks fb lol

 

[Wetdoba]

This happened like 4 times in the match, I'm pissed and watching it again I think he T-bagged after that missed LMFAO. That asshole. Should have fataled.

Thats not a cassie thing its a liu and jacqui thing where when they whiff grab they move backwards so its a problem for a lot of characters. Im lucky to play multiple characters with weapon D2s so I dont really run into it but its still total bullshit

Ah okay, I did notice he backed up pretty far after the grab whiffed. It's freaking ridiculous.

At least you can combo her FB off one of her most common strings. It's still pretty trash, but figuring out I can actually use it is nice.

I prefer to think of it as my personal RKO, a move that I can condition the opponent into showing that I can hit it out of nowhere and when I have it, you're not safe.

Hey guys. I haven't been here in a while lol. I'm basically just coming by to see how everyone was doing. I'm mostly on Twitter & have been playing people. Trying to see if I can go to some other events this year since EVO didn't work out. But the 1 frame link for me in the 2nd variation is starting to become more of a thing for me now.

I've fallen in love with B3 in neutral too as a whiff punish and the 111 xxcrouch shotxx dash > stand 4 111 xxupglow kickxx combo in soldier.

But for now, I'm just going to chill today since I went to sleep 27, but woke up 28 .

What do you guys do with Cassie on wakeup most times? Both of her wakeup attacks are pretty... meh, so I find that a pretty worthless option most times.

Similarly, how do you deal with up-close pressure in general? Without good down pokes, I'm having a hard time getting out of those scramble situations.

Offensively, I use her 111 string, F4 as a stagger & the strings from it since the 2nd hit is an overhead, & B24 strings & cancels (cancels are the same as F41's) . Her best wake up option imo is her U3, the nutpunch. It's invincible & -4 on block.

I roll or neutral jump. You can catch them whiffing with the roll if they go for pressure, so I use her B24.

Delayed wakeup or wakeup roll, mainly. I used to mainly use her U3, but that's just become something that I'll just throw out at random now, to try to throw off the opponent.

 

[Eh SnOwY]

not sure if this route is max damage, it works with B13 and does 33% in the corner

Tips on how to deal with Scorpion, if you have any other tech or tips, share them! In retrospect, I should have added how to block all his strings D: I'll work on adding that in.

I did not know your voice and I thought that some women ads was playing in the background then I realized that it is your tips about Scorpion.

Nice video btw.
I wish we could play with each other (I play Scorpion too) but the ping would be pretty bad.

I can not decide if it is a nerf or buff or just nothing. It looks like nothing serious.

 

[Vslayer]

Yep nothing too bad, still top tier.

 

[Hor_PeT]

Yep nothing too bad, still top tier.

Btw it is "funny" that they "nerfed" the good characters by taking HP and "buff" the worse characters by adding HP.
So they still remain good and bad characters but 5-10% HP difference can balance things - weird way.

 

[Noserfatu]

So f4 is -3 on block now? Man I just started abusing it too lol

 

[Blewdew]

Yep nothing too bad, still top tier.

The gap in amp glow kick is a pretty huge deal though
Is flick kick her f4? If that‘s so this is also reasonable
Overall I‘m happy with how she turned out

Can you flawless block up glowkick out of a string now. I’m not that nerd is kind of useless

 

[Nerobianco]

Not mentioning f4 being minus now is kinda dumb. How hard is it to list all the changes :/

Cass has a new brutality win pose! Also F4 is only -3 on block, so still safe.

She's fine guys. Just have to stagger & condition more. Now I don't want to hear shit else about her being stupid (when she wasn't before). No more excuses! Time to get back to work bros & sis!!!!

 

[Blewdew]

Just tested it, amp glow kick is super easy to flawless block now. I don‘t think any Cassie player will get away with it anymore after a few weeks.
