Hello Guys, this is my first post and if this already exists then excuse me i didnt found it on the forum. My main is Sub Zero and now I try to scratch the surface in playing the Game in depth.
at first sorry for my bad english but I have some questions about Stryker. Vulcan inspired me to pick them up and test a little bit his playstyle. I like is low-overhead string because you need to have advanced block abilities. But it seems that I´m to stupid for Stryker Combos. I can´t find a timing for doing b+3 2 dash 22 Gunshot. Does anybody have tipps for the timing. After b+32, I input the dash when 2 hits and then 22 normaly hits but the gunshot comes only random. Either i´m to fast or i´m to slow. Stryker combos are very strict in my opinion, Sub Zero is much easier to combo.
The reason why i´ve choosen Stryker is, i´m looking for a 2nd main. Because Sub have some bad matchups.
Hey man welcome to testyourmight and the stryker forum
As far as B3,2 goes, there are different ways to land it. The easiest that I can think of is after a jumping punch or cross jumping punch. It also works on block because the opponent gets lock down by the stun from the jumping punch. Other ways to landing is after a gun cancel when within the right range. I am also assuming that you meant 1,1 gunshot after the B3,2 instead of 2,2 gunshot. There is no real easy way to explain this at least for me, but you will have to do the 1,1 gunshot in one motion or commit to it. You cant hit confirm the 1,1 and then do gunshot. You can also do B3,2..dash 1 xx gunshot (I believe it does the same damage as 1,1 gunshot). I find it easier that way and for some reason the second hit of 1,1 whiffs at times. So play it safe and do just 1 xx gunshot after the B3,2.
I try to refrain from commenting on stryker's matchups because I have yet to play stryker at the level that I would want to. I know ppl place stryker in the lowest tier because they havent figured him out all that well. Beside a few draw back like a viable wakeup move, and close up mixup, I think stryker is a viable character and can win tournaments. The thing is that your percentage of allowed mistakes in a game is very slim..i would say you are allowed one mistake per match, if you go over 3 get ready to hate the game lol (jk about hating the game). But what im trying to say is that stryker is by no means an easy win character. You have to work HARD and learn/know how to condition the opponent to play the way you want him to play. If you think sub has a hard time against certain characters, well im sorry but (im speaking for myself here) stryker has even a HARDER time against 2/3 or the cast..mainly rushdown and counter zoners in my opinion. The beauty with stryker is that when you win with him, there is no greater feeling in the world because (1) you obviously know what you are doing (2) You have successfully read/reacted to the opponent's game, and (3) he is freaking stryker lol
Dang I think I went off on a tangent here lol
- so yeah after B3,2 just dash and do a 1 gunshot or roll toss/baton sweep or even standing 3 for reset
- Again from my experience stryker is gonna have to work twice as hard as sub for certain matchups
- Stryker is fun to play, I will definitely recommend picking him up. We all here in the stryker forum will try to help in anyway we can. So feel free to spam the "ask stryker thread" with questions
