So uh...Kenshi vs noob

[Impose]

Is this matchup impossible. Or do I just suck at it?

I cant do crap

I assume you're using kenshi? Get noob to the corner. Noob outzones kenshi so no point in staying full screen. Reflect us worthless. Use meter to get in if you have to but it's best to use once noob is cornered. When noob is knocked down in the corner try to bait an up knee then whiff punish.

Yes it's 5-5 and it's probably my most hated match up. Noobs zoning is fucking annoying lol.

This game is stupid because even Noobs can beat a top tier character.



...get it!?

One thing that helps noob a lot in this matchup is that kenshi's wakeups don't work against noob.
Since all his wakeups keep him stationary, noob can always throw a shadow when he is knocked down and kenshi will have to eat it or armor through.
Portal setups become more valuable since kenshi must tech roll and jump to avoid them which usually leads to kenshi being pushed further away or you can read the jump and punish accordingly

Crossing up kenshi on wake-up is very valuable in switching sides and messing up with his wake ups more. If he decides to shoulder, or dash under shoulder you can react to it and do a teleport. If he then tries to njp or jump out you can start doing jk tele to keep him down. It is essential that noob avoid the corner since kenshi is sub-zero 2.0 when he has meter against a backed up noob.

Never cross up kenshi on wake up. Unless you are Lao.

Yeah, I'll side with 5 5 on this one too. The "Kenshi is braindead" crowd will disagree. Death probably thinks it's 8 2.

I C wut u did thar

On the off chance Noob has Kenshi cornered, does he have any momentum with it?

What happens up close in the neutral game? Who has the advantage in spacing and footsies?

Before coming here, I though Kenshi vs Noob was like 7-3 in kenshi's favor. I always felt confortable with that mu. Now that I've read your thread, I'm not sure..
