That would be hilarious, if after a year of other flavour of the month characters like Kitana and Sektor, we do a full loop and come right back to Kung Lao.

Take all the damage you can get, establish the threat of 4 RH THEN you can start doing the cancel game. The waterport oki game is also really good because 4RH can beat out some wakeupsSince everyone is way too busy discussing whether REO sandbagged or not and understimating EU players. I'll go ahead and ask what should have been asked already.
A F0xy Grampa UsedForGlue
As a Rain player I got to say I was intrigued by F0xy not using Bubble setups and RH cancel pressure. Is there a reason for this?
It might seem obvious F0xy probably didn't use them because the threat ofNomad Dash. However, F0xy's BNB is the same combo Glue suggested to Pig a few days ago. This leads me to think F0xy's Rain simply aims for the damage and Waterport oki game.
I would like to hear your insight on this particular playstyle.

Are you actually serious? a fact?
I normally go for the RH cancel game first then release the RH when they start poking out or jumping. I guess the threat is more effective if they've been hit first several times.
Funny how last year we were all saying the exact opposite.
It's not that I think foxy isn't good. Dude is a beast... it's just I find it hard to take any matches played by REO serious b/c of his troll status unless it's in tournament or a money match. I mean the dude wouldn't even play serious on stream when the commentators asked him to at toryuken. That's just how he is.
lol yea he does, ive played fox plenty times. times everything well
no, foxy WILL beat him. ( spank that kabal offline)
plus, if you see the thread he did of this match earlier, reo said he wasnt sandbaggin. lol but idk if foxy was.
he was using rain lol
The problem is, like Iniquity and Ketchup pointed out, had F0xy lost we would never hear the end of the bashing and shitstorm towards him. The excuses folks are making for REO (which he's never asked for) wouldn't apply to F0xy in that scenario just because.
lol well sandbaggin or not, everyone he plays as is on point from his kl to rain, back to his raiden and sonya. i say evo's quote this year... Believe in FOxy! lol
Oh no doubt, I don't disagree with that. It's just a bunch of known player dick riders. Pay no mind to them. lol
Damage. Pure and Simple, A bubble reset holds no priority over damage in Rain's case, and a Reset is only effective if you don't sacrifice any damage whilst opting for it.Since everyone is way too busy discussing whether REO sandbagged or not and understimating EU players.

Bubble, Uppercut, 43 Lightning, 4 Geyser or 43 Teleport.
In short no Bubble resets whatsoever, correct?Damage. Pure and Simple, A bubble reset holds no priority over damage in Rain's case, and a Reset is only effective if you don't sacrifice any damage whilst opting for it.
After every 4 RH, or RH on its own, you can get 40+ Damage and Take their meter with
If you do RH, then you can only get 43 Lightning, then Bubble, which is crap damage, and not worth it, you need to maximise your damage to win with Rain.
Its never worth it really when there is big damage on the cards, and after taking the meter early with
bubble, when you combo afterwards, the opponent may also opt to break and lose all their meter.
We all know that F0xy is amazing, but clearly REO wasn't playing his best. There were absolutely no setups even attempted, he never once landed a full combo.
Yes.
Yes.
Foxy was sandbagging, REO wasn't exactly on his game. Did you see how many combos he dropped? How weak his pressure was? REO is a guy known to have pin point execution. This set doesn't mean anything no matter which player came out on top, Evo will settle things.
