Blade Kall is -8 or -9 if BOTH hits get blocked.

RIP Ronin. He died too young.

I haven't tested yet but it should still be -9 for specials but if you're trying to punish with a normal then it should be -8 for normals cuz they took out the extra frame for blocking moves low (was -7 for normals before the patch). They didn't fix the random blockstun on it though.

edit: yup just tested. It's -9 still but for normals u have to punish with an 8 frame normal cuz letting go of block takes 1 frame.

Anyone know why sometimes I do a regular blade drop while my opponent is airborne it will do a close blade drop instead of a regular mid one?

You check your commands? Could be hitting back twice. I used to have this problem also

restands/combos i found

accidentally left off the meterless one, but B112, 21 restands.

 

[StealthyMuffin]

Exbf2 pretty much ignores juggle potential. Combined with the restand, any hit leads into a 50% 3 bar hard knockdown.
Broke?

3 bars for 50% isn't worth it.

It Issssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

 

[GuerillaTactix]

Takeda gets 60% damage off 3 bars in ronin!

 

[aieches]

b21 db1 db1 d1 21 restand is a thing dont know if that was said already

 

[StealthyMuffin]

The b2 in Ronin totally got a better vertical hitbox. Used to be a problem.

B2 seems to not move forward as much as before

i've never had b2 hitting but b21 whiffing pre patch, only 2+4 whiffs

 

[SOLEdier]

Just playing around with Ronin and here is what I got for mid screen.

Meterless
B21 xx Blade Drop/Call, D1, B11 xx DF1/BF2 - 28%/29%

1 Bar
B21 xx Blade Drop/Call, D1, 21 xx exBF2 rc 44 DF1 - 42%

 

[SnowboardRX]

I don't know why but I seem to have so much trouble hitting the D1 after the normal B2,1 Blade Drop/Call. I can never do it from the ground but can maybe hit it after a JiP about 30-40% of the time. Like I had no problem doing it for a good amount of time last night and then poof, in an instant, I couldn't hit it again for the life of me. Driving me crazy lol.

it seems the exact same to me

I'm sure its just a timing issue that I need more work on.

 

[SOLEdier]

Here is a few practical combos that the new Ronin can do just to update. I only put down midscreens and 1 bar combos. I didn't add anything from the Ultimate Takeda Thread. At least I don't think. If anyone wants me to add anything here just let me know.

Midscreen

B112 - 11 frame mid
b112, f122+4 xx Blade Drop xx Blade Kall (23%)
b112, f122+4 xx Fist Furry (24%)

B21 - 12 frame overhead
b21 xx Blade Drop xx Blade Kall, d1, b11 xx Shirai Ryu Kan (28%)
b21 xx Blade Drop xx Blade Kall, d1, 21 xx Fist Furry (29%)
b21 xx Blade Drop xx Blade Kall, d1, 21 xx Piercing Spark (25%)

1 bar

11 frame mid
b112, f122+4 xx Blade Drop xx exBlade Kall 21 xx Fist Furry (32%)
b112, f122+4 xx Blade Drop xx exBlade Kall 44 xx Shirai Ryu Kan (33%)

12 frame overhead
b21 xx Blade Drop xx Blade Kall, d1, 21 xx exFist Furry rc 21 xx Fist Furry (40%)
b21 xx Blade Drop xx Blade Kall, d1, 21 xx exFist Furry rc 44 xx Shirai Ryu Kan (42%)

 

[BornThroughAshes]

b21 xx db1 xx db1, d1, 21 xx EXbf2, rc 21xxEXbf2, NJP, 21xxdf3

This is a 2 bar 50% midscreen combo that has insane corner carry. If you end the combo with the df3 you get a corner restand for more potential damage. I can post a video if anyone wants to.

 

[StealthyMuffin]

Here's a tip for the b21 combos in case you weren't aware.

 

[delbuster]

this char is crazy

-

f1 2+4 (1hit) quick kall run 21 etc is pretty cool.

 

[GroovyMango]

What do you do in the corner...?

 

[GuerillaTactix]

b21 xx db1 xx db1, d1, 21 xx EXbf2, rc 21xxEXbf2, NJP, 21xxdf3

I already know what you're doing in my head but video never hurts.

Thanks i'll try these later!
And I had a question to everyone, what do you normally use to keep the more pressure possible? If you have any tips you want to give me, don't hesitate!
Thanks all!

The pressure is all about the mind games you create with the blade drop/call.

 

[BadJujube]

Thanks a lot for your answer, I'll work on that. I'm getting better than when i played him a few months ago, the experience kicking in I think!
