the special effects
Inspired by DaiHuu after playing his NW and him telling me what I was doing wrong and then his wonderful mentor thread on teaching Nightwolf to others I figured I would take up the reins and spread some knowledge on the God of Thunder, Raiden. Having played very few people from here and no local scene, I am not sure how good I actually am but regardless I feel like I do have a bit of knowledge of the basics of Raiden that I can spread and help give to people looking for another character.
Material covered:
Basic combos for both midscreen and corner
Bock strings and follow ups
Wake up game
Teleport advantage
Tiger Knee supermans
Matchups
The unsafe combo
The only area I am not very comfortable with Raiden is mirror matches, as I have yet to face someone I feel is on the same level or better than I with him.
As am I strictly an Xbox 360 player I cannot offer anything to PS3 players, so I offer any PS3 Raiden to use this thread for mentoring as well.
Simply shoot me a friend request (and preferably a post here so I can keep track of who you are) and I'll do my best on to be on as much as possible for you to invite me to games. 1v1 private matches will obviously be the format used due to King being laggy, not to mention it gives a better, more personal learning experience.
Like I said, I make no promises of being a gdlk Raiden player, or player in general, but rather just spreading some of my knowledge and experience. If you wind up being better than myself, which I expect many to be, than great, perhaps I can learn from you. But for the rest of you that are not, you will gain understanding of a new fighter on a level higher than your average casual fighter.
My gamertag is curled mustache and I am normally on Mon/Wed/Thurs before 5pm and after 9pm, after 9pm Friday and Saturday, and generally all day on Tuesday/Sunday.
If I am unavailable on XBL you can also add me on Steam to talk and possibly set something up, just by clicking here and friending me.
