It's alright "Situation", we all have to start somewhere

P.S. Try B+2, 1 (x3), B,1,1 trance in the corner!

P.S.S [MENTION=3201]BigDaddyKrames[/MENTION] What system do you play this on?

Oh wow...I'm trying it right now as I type and I can get 3 in a row but then they are way to low for me to get the B1 1 to connect...much less the trance...this is kinda tough...I'm more accustomed to my opponent in the air with a swirling fan keeping them afloat! lol

It's a hard combo man, I usually just do B+2, 1 (x2) B+1,1 trance.... A trick to know you can nab them in the B+1, 1 trance is if your last B+2, 1 looks like they're on top of your head. They'll usually fall in front allowing you to connect the B+1, 1 trance.....


Fuck Fans... We use our rapist gloves in these parts.

Dirty!!!! I love it! lol. Right now in my Quan noob status I'm loving the JIP B2+1(x2) uppercut...it's simple and does 30%. I'm pretty satisfied for now. I remember back on day 1 when I was learning Kitana I was satisfied with her F21, jump kick fan, jump kick fan...for like 29%...I was balln'.

End that shit with a B+1, 1 trance or a 1, 1, 2 trance... and don't forget the meter building. Also, end most of your combos with 1,1, skydrop for a reset unless you need the damage, then B+2, 1 those kids.

 

[LEGEND]

thank you my good man Quan is one of those characters that takes like months to play at a high level. If you go into a tourney or something not knowing a specific matchup your getting murked! lol

i wouldn't say he's that difficult, Quan is one of my best characters and i almost never use him.

he takes some time to learn all the situational combos and spacing for trance/far rune, but past that you could drop him for a month then pick him up without skipping a beat, His shit is total easy mode

I disagree but perhaps you are just beast mode player!

By no means is he "easy"...Kitana and Sindel are my expertise and Quan is like night compared to that day! I'm loving him thus far (1 full day into playing him, lol) Kinda tricky...but worth it!

fuck man, sindel is a bitch to learn. ive messed with her since launch and I still cant hit shit to save my life..i just recently got her zoning down lol

Yeah. She is so much more than a fireball throwing zoner. The bitch has game! However, in all honesty without sounding boastful, to get to the level of play that WE tournament players are at, I'd say it takes a good 2-3 good solid months of training AND matchplay. You can practice and master 40% plus combos all you want...but until you are in the arena faced against a viable opponent that's where you REALLY learn. I'm loving Quan so far...he is so confusing (to fight against) which I'm loving!

Which is easier to w00lay?

b3,1+2 dash b2,1 dash b1,1 trance
or
b3,1+2 dash 1,1 dash 2,1,2 trance

 

[OZombiePenguinO]

b3,1+2 dash b2,1 dash b1,1 trance
or
b3,1+2 dash 1,1 dash 2,1,2 trance

I'd advise against either. Just settle with 112-Trance or 212-Trance

but i see hidan pull off b3,1+2 dash b2,1 dash b1,1 trance like it was nothin....

maybe you're right i'll start off small(2,1,2) and maybe work my way up to hidans skillz (b2,1 dash b1,1)

Does anyone use runes for his pokes? d3 close rune and d4 far rune are both pretty decent, rune recovers quickly and builds a ton of meter on block.

Been using F12 close rune on block as well followed by d3 close rune or a throw. If they decide to hop away, you can grab them with a trance and either use your ex runes or reset.

havnt tried this a whole lot yet...gonna test er now!

 

[Pagan]

I use d4 En rune as my rushdown tool. On hit or block, they have to eat the en rune unless they armor out after block and then you have enough frame advantage to dash in and keep the heat on them

Well yeah, everyone uses EX runes for pressure; but I've yet to see anyone use normal runes. It works nicely and recovers quickly enough for a second d3~rune, d4~rune or a throw. It builds a shitload of meter.

this was a terrible idea lol. tested it last night and got punished by full combo almost every time. we will have to putt this strategy on the backburner unless they change things.

does his d4 give enough advantage on hit to get a block string?

 

[Pagan]

It's def in the +10 to +12 range on hit

Does anyone know much his 1 and 11 are on block? I've been using it during jump ins and rune traps to kind of sneak in extra hits and what not. I've also seen Mayo using it in his newest Quan video. Been catching a lot of people with 11throw 11, 212(exrune), and just 112 to keep people guessing.

Also, is his projectile safe on block? I've been craving for his frame data, but Somberness in only one person.

 

[GNG Iniquity]

b3,1+2 dash b2,1 dash b1,1 trance

Very easy to land, drops with lag pretty commonly though. If it's laggy just revert to 112~trance.

Yeah, I use 11 and 112 , d3, 21/212, B31+2 and F121+2 pretty commonly for block strings. I'm also trying to incorporate more sweeps and standing 4s, standing 4 recovers very quickly as well. Projectile SEEMS safe on block but it's hard to say. Would appreciate Somberness doing his data!

So about Quan Chi's little D1 slap. It's really slow at 11 frames but it seems to hit at a pretty high angle similar to Scorpion's. Anyone find any uses for it?

I don't understand how d2 is 7 frames but his d1 is 11 frames and completely useless. What the hell? I guess they thought that a good anti crossup into trance is overpowered? Suppose it would be with the rune traps. I'm wondering about the application of his sweep in that scenario, gonna look up the frames on that real quick.
