I know the feeling. That's why I go into every match now assuming the opponent has 0 knowledge of Johnny's options until they prove otherwise. Works wonders. Sometimes it takes 3 full combos after a D4 before they finally realize that they have to hold the F3
We don't speak of that in this household.
Go right ahead, of course. Anything I’ve said, feel free to include. Don’t worry about credit. I wasn’t the one who thought of f3 stagger, for example. That was mentioned by someone else way back.
Lol that always happens to me, a lot of these players rarely play any johnnys at all. The worse they are, the more you have to dewire your brain and neglet alot of the options youve learnt
It’s not necessarily that you need to dewire, it’s like FoughtDragon01 said, you have to conditon em. Start by using d4 into f344 the first couple times- 3 or 4 maybe, then switch. When I play Liu, I always use f43u3 until they show me they know the counterplay. I don’t go straight to f4 stagger throw. Also, I never mind if the f3 hits. I delay the throw so the + frames from the hit go into that.
Yep true, always good to have a layered gameplan. I was reading before about you talking about f4 after amp forceball on b32 when timed correctly, gonna ask what do you follow up with after the f4? a throw ? another FB? what about on block etc
You mean b34 amped forceball? F4 is too fast too hitconfirm, so I just pick something. F44 for safety, f4 amped forceball for the + frames, or f4 caged rage for the charge. F4 by itself actaully isn’t a real stagger since it’s -9. I just like that they can’t neutral jump me. People love doing that if I do use f344 amped fbs.
Or they can just get rid of Camera and give us another set all-together.
And then they neutral duck after the f3 that hits and you eat that KB
You can literally say that about any throw setup in the game.
Never had that happen to me, actually. I tend to F4 or F3 again after a F3 on hit and just continue pressure.
I think this happened the first time I changed his glasses and then never again, I like it, kinda wished it happened every time
Little stuff like this is what makes me a ride-or-die Cage main despite his flaws. They just put so much personality into everything he does. Whenever I try someone else, it just doesn't feel the same because they lack that 'asshole' factor.
Kung Lao is also kind of a cocky asshole, but he's borderline garbage LOL
Good find. I’m sure there’s a question of viability tho. You lose like 8% in damage and a restand to activate something you may get nothing from. Johnny already struggles to get legit damage. I could see using this if you have one bar or are on level 2 caged rage. I’m going to test this out. I think brass knuckles has serious potential.
Ok, the matches are cool and all, but more importantly, WHERE DID YOU GET THAT SEXY ASS MIME TAUNT ROUND ENDER?!
Converting air-to-airs and jump in kicks into full combos has become my new religion.
