Hello everyone.I want to you all to look into forceball canceling.Im always hearing you guys talk about 321 this and 321 that.But if it works for you than that's cool.I rarely start a string with 321 because it just never works for me and other reptiles aren't successful with it on me in a mirror match.Instead,my pressure starts with JIP 2 slow/fast fb.This gives me a good start because it's interruptible and it's the best answer for me against turtlers.If they catch on to the forceball after 2 then i just slide or ex dash.Now that I've got that out the way,I wanna ask you guys why you never use forceball cancel.I've yet played a reptile that has done it yet and I play all the time.It takes one bar but I think It's worth it if you execute it right.To add on, it shuts down certain characters wake up game after 321.If kabal does wake up ex nomad dash after your 321,he will armor through the regular forceball.and while he's going through that one,you have a charged ball waiting on him and another combo.same for cage shadow kick,kano up ball,sub slide,baraka charge, jax punch,you get the picture.This goes for their ex wake ups because the first ball knocks off the armor.This only works if you don't cancel out the forceball but most of the time it will work in your favor because of your opponent using a quick wakeup and running into a second forceball after losing their armor to the first one.but if they don't,the first forceball will disappear right before it get's to to them and you have an enhanced forceball and from there it aid's you with more pressure.I wouldn't use this on raiden,maleena,rain,and kung lao.Let's just say characters with fast or instant teleports.And if I did,I'd just use the fast forceball but that's a whole different story.But anyways,I'd like to start seeing reptiles other than myself incorporate that into their gameplay because it really does make a difference because it can confuse your opponent just as much as invisibility can.Im sure forceball cancel isn't put there for nothing.It has to do some type of justice.I wan't y'all to try it and let me know how it goes.If you don't get that feel for it then I'll understand.
