General/Other - Tanya Tanya General Discussion Thread

DN having no useful mid up-close is starting to bug me.. All the good mids are in kobu :[ whack ass tonfas

Doesnt help that her pokes are absolute buttcheeks... And I thought Jacqui's pokes were bad >__>;

Have you been feeling the pain of that 7f uppercut that seems to whiff on opponents youd think itd hit? Just to eat 30+%

Oh I can top that lol, I keep getting DN db2 instead of d2 and get an even bigger whiff..
Any button that starts with a down input with Tanya is a no-no. You in the no poke zone, son~
your poke is teleport back :|

 

[AK L0rdoftheFLY]

anyone else having issues doing teleport cancel into b3?
i keep getting back tele instead :/ if i slow it down to were i dont i lose too many frames
(my release check is off btw)

This is going to be a big issue for her.

I just have taught myself NOT to tele cancel into b3 or f2. It just doesn't work

Try to turn off input shortcuts as well.

This character is taking me back to the Skarlet days.

Using Pyromancer Tanya makes me appreciate Cassie's B1 range so much more. I can't just swing at people 5 feet away from me anymore!

 

[Afro_physicist]

Can we stop with the variation ranking? Each variation is fairly solid, and will provide a different style to suit better for different match-ups. DN for the range and damage, pyro for the zoning and dust mixups, and KJ for the pressure and mixups from her b1 2+4 string.
None of these are as bad as Hat trick. That will always be the worst variation ever

Edit: There's more ranking in the other threads but its still not contributing to anything

I'm already there. My main

 

[STK]

whats her best variation so far?

 

[Raider]

 

[Jyakotu]

I like all her variations, but Pyromancer is my favorite. Though Kobujustu and Dragon Naginata are also fun to use.

 

[1man3letters]

yea i think im going to stop doing standing 1 from a teleport in jip, soooooooooo many times j1/2 hits and the secondd hit of 112 gets blocked

Lol is that so?

Yeah I've noticed this too. I've been doing more F2 after teleport jip. It never whiffs and always combos if you time it right. On block you go into teleport cancel pressure

 

[fredchuckdave]

What are your guys' thoughts on the Raiden matchup? Ignoring how terrible I am it just seems like he can blow up literally everything that Tanya wants to do if played well enough (except maybe Pyromancer).

 

[felirx]

First up, don't play against the CPU. It teaches you bad habits.

Second, you're way overusing the airial gimmicks. Going for Teleport overhead dive is a surefire way of eating a 40% combo since it's minus million on block.

You're playing horribly unsafely. Why on earth are you JUMPING when you're knocked down? It simply looks like your jump button is stuck. Every other move you do is some type of jump forward.

As for actual match up stuff, It's impossible to know yet. Tanya is too new and there is limited exploring of her options in the various matchups.

In general stuff that works on humans doesn't work on the VH comp, so if I tried to mixup it would just block it always; even if I mixed up several times in the same string. What this ultimately means is that you can either win via gimmicks (like an infinite blockstring or the pogo working multiple times as it did for me toward the end) or you'll win because of the matchup superiority (i.e. your normals or specials are better than the opposing character). Some of the comps have some pretty dope combos I've never seen a human do as well so even in a general context it's a good idea to play the comp for basic ideas. You can also learn how to punish reasonably well, and good luck doing that online. Finally there are going to be almost 100 variations in the game and you'll wind up playing against less than half of them if you never play against the comp.

The point isn't that though or anything to do with how I played, it's that raiden can instant air babolay everything and blowup the ubiqutous DN okis. Hell he can even auto correct DP wakeup teleport.

I have like a 95% chance to win against other players (with Kitana) and only a 70% chance to win or so against the comp so I find it more interesting in general, though that's just a personal taste thing. I'm certainly not going to get better against almost every other player, most of them are just plain awful, but the comp can give me a run for my money/you really have to nail every combo if you want to have a positive win rate (which apparently from MIT's play yesterday you don't have to do in person at a high level necessarily). If you want to blab about offline vs online and all that's great and I would definitely participate in a local scene if one existed, but it doesn't so I'm stuck with the Very Hard comp being my "demon" as it were.

Hey play against the CPU all you want. It's what I do to help with execution in tight situations.

My only issue is online, IDK what it is, but a lot of my combos/stuff just won't come out when it should. It's pretty annoying, because it's the reason I lose so much now. Never had an issue with online until recently.

Yea somehow it got even worse. Something as simple as F2~Dust or B31~Dust either comes out a F2~nothing and B312 half of the time even with "good" connection. Teleport air combos are impossible for me online but 99/100 offline.

Online is just garbage. I play it as little as possible.

 

[cfw]

It really sucks because when I try to get out of certain situations where I can easily teleport out, nothing happens I'm just standing there chillin so I can get punched in the face free combo KO game over

 

[SaltShaker]

Why does Scorpion Jik me out of everything? Why does his Jik break my teleport armor? Why?? Why?

 

[Zoidberg747]

I feel bad for people who dont have an offline scene, I really do. I wanted to play more online this game to get more MUs down but quickly realized it was pointless considering counterpoking is nonexistent online lmao.

 

[TrulyAmiracle]

Anything outside of unlimited salt is nonexistent online.... It's the only game that I'd play online and be mad even when I win coz it was so awful that I simply lucked out ~__~

Hi guys, Just started to playing Tanya today and I have for a start to questions:

1 - I think b1, 24 is stronger combo starter, isnt it ?
2 - how well bad do You think the tele will get hit with the next patch ?

Thanks

1. I'm assuming you're using Kobu Jutsu. But yeah the b1, 24 is the stronger combo starter but its only in the KJ variation

2. Hold down and the punch button after the second teleport

Thanks, i figured it out a while ago.

Also a 34 can be confirmed info ex tele - it applies more dmg as well.

I've been playing her two hours in the lab and I am already in love (almost as fun as Skarlet is <wink wink>)
