Just so I'm clear are we making a new match-up thread or adding to the current one?

Once we get the ball rolling, we'll start a new thread with the info. Start completely fresh once we feel we have enough info compiled.

Focus on, where ever possible:
Punishes for the character's more popular attacks, strings (describe the string, if possible) and how to avoid it, punish it or how have a defense against their follow up.
Example: Batman's 1,1,3 ends with an overhead (the axe kick) and is +5. Batman's unsually jump in after Lobo blocks for "free" pressure. I've found we can forward dash on reaction to that jump. It doesn't beat it, but it does force a stalemate. If he tries to jump again, you'll be better equipped to handle the naked jump than the one after 1,1,3.
Little stuff like that can give us the edge in a match, imo.

Red Venom I sent an invite I'm willing to help with Hawkgirl and Raven maybe more characters in the future .

[Lord Hollow]

Cool Thx, LOCO. We're just assigning now. I got you down for Scorpion and Lex, is that cool? Just document everything in Wordpad or something and keep it handy, alright? Thx for the support, man.

 

[LOCO]

dats fine with me dude

 

[Lord Hollow]

Gave myself Batman also, cuz I need to figure out more for that match up. Yea, the less we have to think about in a match, the faster we can get in and destroy them. I'm gonna write up some guidelines for the match up. Stuff we NEED to know to:
get in on them (getting around, under, through, over and behind their projectiles.
Any decent Anti airs and how to get around them/bait them and punish.
Popular strings they may have and how to punish, avoid them or force a stalemate after blocking them.
Blocking their specials and punishing them directly if possible, anticipating their usual follow ups (like Batman's jumping in after 1,1,3) and beating out/avoiding their follow ups.

 

[Scottinho]

Quick note on batman: on accident i whipped out the air grab when he was attempting that jumping 2 bs crossup. I am not able to do this consistently, but it seems to work. Just haven't worked on the timing on it. Might work as a wakeup since they alway try it when you're down.

 

[Lord Hollow]

That may be a viable option. The kick seems to be angled more horizontal than vertical, so his hurt box may be just as far down as his hit box. I will make sure i test this. Thanks, Scottinho.

 

[Scottinho]

No problem. It actually surprised me when it happened. I tend to forget he even has an air throw sometimes.

 

[Lord Hollow]

Same here. Its weird, cuz in a combo, he snatches them out of the air like they own him money. Any other time, he's slow as a snail in the sun.

 

[SilverKeyMan]

I obviously need to get some serious match-up experience with other players if I plan on taking Lobo to future EVO tournaments. And anyone who can assist me in learning advanced game mechanics please feel free to add me on PSN: M1STERMACHETE I hope through my efforts I can earn Lobo the buffs he needs by showing the people just what he's capable of thank you for reading.

If you want to add me, I'm usually on PSN between 10pm - 6am PST. I can help you with Nightwing and Bane matchup experience, if you wish.

 

[Axel_Redd]

lobo is awesome, i'd use him if he was better >.>

 

[Lord Hollow]

That's the point: We are making him better. Any shortcomings he has can be overcome in this game.

 

[Darth Mao]

The player make the character, we'll do the job.

 

[Elder God]

I love Lobo, but its hard put him against top tiers, don't give up! keep training, is important, show the best Lobo and buffs are welcome, I like Lobo and don't stop play with him, you also need to have fun. I see good Bane players against Superman and Deathstroke, why no Lobo??

 

[Red Venom]

I've chosen to start with Bane, up to level 2 venom most of his special moves can be punished with a armored B3

The moves I've found so far are double punch, charge, command grab, you can armor past the uppercut but it whiffs since he jumps in the air, his B23 and B21 string have a pretty low start-up so I'm certain it can be countered with our B12 but Im still newbie when it comes to frame-advantage which is something I need to read up on but that's what I've found so far within 5 minutes.

 

[IrishMantis]

Lobo's main problem is getting in, but once hes in, you want to hope you dont get caught or kiss half your health goodbye

nothing a simple buff cant fix

 

[Jaku2011]

I still main him, I started learning Scorpion, but Lobos still the main man. Anyways I've done a ton of matches against RunwayMafias Hawkgirl I don't know how to link videos but he posted them on the Hawkgirl pages.

 

[Red Venom]

I want to play him and hopefully he'll record our session

 

[Red Venom]

I think mafias played enough Lobos to know how to react to them though.

 

[Lord Hollow]

Cool. Remember: Document any thing you have for the actual Match up thread. Just gather the info for now.

 

[Jaku2011]

I think mafias played enough Lobos to know how to react to them though.

Not really I think he's only really played me and REO

 

[Red Venom]

Not really I think he's only really played me and REO

Then after a little practice and watching the videos of him vs you guys lets see what I can do
