Well, until you limit your game to 90% 4RH you'll not understand
rain sucks because of his bad dash speed... his lack of zoning... mediorce counter-zoning... dependency on meter and the ability to jump out of his pressure.
back 2 1+2 is an amazing sting.
I understand that but things online helps him too. Like fuzzy guarding lightning. Online his zoning is viable while its not viable offline really. His teleport is godlike online too
His dash speed is fine, unless you dont dash block.
yeah but unless your kabal,kenshi or freddy everyones zoning sucks in this game.
noob saibot and sindels zoning isnt bad... sektors footsies combined with his zoning is very good...
I think shangs is really good because of the adv he gets on his skulls. Mix that in with soul steal and it's good. The only difference is that you have to be good at zoning and make reads on it. It's not braindead button smashing like the chars you mentioned
Shang's midscreen pressure is decent but I agree, its nothing like cages. His corner game is one of the best imo
i will say 4 rh and b2 +12 are both amazing... plus he has meter control... hes not bad i just dont think hes that good... u'd say hes top 10 id say hes around 18
10-15
Not necessarily. His f4~gs is really good. After the gs he can either f4 again or d3 and d3 is always guaranteed. D3 d4 gs is really good too. He can also get out of pressure with his 9f mid and has armor. Safe armor too. With Shang you just have to be a really good player to use him at high levels. Hust his hitbox hurts him
yeah i mean shangs better than alot of the cast at keeping you out but what i meant was its not like you cant get around it and get in unlike kabal,kenshi and freddy.the skulls are great but like you said you have to place them to perfection for them to work well.i guess i meant as a generalization zoning in this game is kind of irrelevent considering how fast people play these days.
hes really solid across the charts... but i think his weaknesses are this... his damage isnt that great midscreen without meter... in the footsie game f4 is decent but is outclassed by some and very whiff punishable... forcing him to d3 which can be counter-poked... his pressure is very solid but should rarely yield full combos.... just very good chip and very good meter... when hes heavily outzoned or his zoning his shutdown his game is very weak because of his dash speed... and his wakeup game is all ex ss.. he loses quite a few matchups but not a lot are 7-3 bad... hes a vry good character whose pretty tournament viable in a game with a clear tier of characters who are broken. cowboy outplayed a lot of people this weekend... a lot.
Never thought i`ll read such smart words from Sonya player. (Cage player saying).
I truly believe too he`s underrated.
i agree
wtf? i dont think thats true dude,i know you can armor it.
no,without armor someone check it!!!!!
He doesnt have a 9f mid, F4 is 10f, 8f after a blocked GS.
Theres a 4f gap, so you can only armour it. But I say just play the rock paper scissors game and force him into doing his worst option everytime, either D1 or 1 2.
