moves like that are generally called mid hitting
what are you talking about, you can special cancel d4
also that u mentioned it, ravenous b12 is 100% not the same frames as piercing.

I know there is a couple of topics showing universal option selects where a special doesn't come out on block but does on hit and vice versa. However, I haven't got around to trying it out yet so can't say what it would be for sure. The topics are located somewhere I think in strategy zone, or search UltraDavid in members and you can find his thread which discusses it.
I think u might be able to option select it by pushing F+4,Ball Roll, and then a different direction+4 again really fast. Haven't tested it myself yet but I plan to later. I would try it like this F+4,Ball Roll,U+4. U might be able to do it but I'm not sure. I know u can with F+2,3 so if the 3 connects u get ball roll and if it doesn't you're only -7. Pretty sure u can do it with B+1,2 too.
This actually works! f+4~bd4, u. -8 isn't safe but it's much better than -30. Now Mileena's hard knockdowns such as 3 or piercing b+2,1,2+4 actually pose a real threat. You can even finish combos and go straight into a reset. Too bad I think you can react to her f+3 overhead.
Yea people can react to the F+3 overhead but there's some good stuff u can do with it...I was going to make a video of this and post it but I think I'll just say it in here and make a vid some other time. If you end combos with a second Ball Roll, and then do F+3 on the opponents wake up they have to block it, back-dash,or armor through it. I've only tried this on kung lao and kano because they have 5 and 6 frame normal wake-ups, but it worked on them so I'm assuming it works on most of the other cast as well. If they do a normal wake-up it get stuffed by F+3 and Mileena gets 40-43%. Also yea it's pretty cool that option select thing works, I think they might patch it but Idk because I got to imagine it would be hard to patch something like that.
On a good day, I could react to Spencer's OH in UMvC3 and that's 21 frames. At 32 frames, it's actually possible for an opponent to react and jab or use an invincible move. You could do the above technique (nice find Premo), but it's still 32 frames. They can block on reaction, it's just that they might not know it's a setup and try to hit you, causing them to get hit.
I appreciate all the advice you have given me. I'll keep using her no matter what happens anyway, since she's the only character i find fun, besides Liu Kang lol. I plan to go into training mode and try stuff out in a bit. I think my friend has an issue where he tries to make everything he says right. you beat him, he basically turns into a pile of excuses. That gets annoying after awhile lol.
I know it's a little bit of a late reply, but I'm actually quite fond of 1,2,4 when in close or after a JiP.
That's true. This is my fault for not being clear. I probably should have worded it differently. I would get on the game & look into more stuff that I feel should be addressed, but I'm not feeling well. My face & eyes both hurt from these damn sinuses. Which was why I said that I would post more of my thoughts later.
It is hit confirm but it's not easy and requires practice
I'm impatiently waiting haha, I really like that skin.
I'm with you at this point. I really think piercing is solid and ravenous needs just a slightly buff on low pounce. Ethereal though..eh you might as well play without variation
That's how I understood it, can't wait to see the skin ingame as well as the vampire skin
Yes! I want dat kostume now! She has some of the best kostumes in the game. And I love her overall design anyways... dat face is perfect.
That's a good start right there. I would add to try using ball as a block or whiff punisher to stay safe. Many online players tend to use very unsafe moves that are punishable or they whiff too much. Mileena will kill you for that. Erron Black players always do slide which hits full screen as well as sub zeros. Scorpions and ermacs love teleports. All those moves are very unsafe and punishable by ball or TK.
