I agree so maybe equal ability wasn't the right word. If both are advanced players I mean. Mika just needs to get in on a Ryu and it's over. I wish I uploaded some of these matches lol.


even daigo got his shit pushed in by a mika. Ryu's tech isn't all that great compared to others.

I'm just waiting for the moment people realize just how amazing Ryu's parry is. Jump ins and slower moves get so much more riskier in that circumstance.
 
What's your CFN ID? I'd like to watch some of those replays. As a Mika player I still have a lot of trouble sometimes beating a Ryu who's just playing strong fundamentals. I think I've made it pretty hard on myself maining Mika, as someone who's pretty scrubby, but I'm committed!
fuck I wish I uploaded some. I'll try to remember going forward but trust me just keep sticking with Mika and you'll see the light. Just watch the daigo live stream from yesterday if you need Mika inspiration. I forget who was playing her (was it Sako or Fuudo?) but that shit was pretty good.

it's hard to use and the punish is harsh. I've faced a lot of Ryu's who try to use it but end up getting decimated. Even myself I've yet to learn when to use it properly. I find it easiest to use on jump ins but there's no reason to use them then because Ryu has enough moves to counter that. It's most useful when someone comes in hitting mad buttons in your face but it's really hard to time those. It's definitely a high upside high risk move but for anyone that can master it they'll definitely have a huge leg up.

dude every single match replay is saved automatically! if you tell me your CFN ID I can just look them up and watch the replays in-game lol

Daigo who's still playing this game like it's 4?

It's week 1. Saying that a character has less or more tech at this point is like making tiers.
 
Yeah, the latter. I throw the projectile, and then V-dash when I see they are going to block it.

Oh OK. In that case you better be careful. When you charge that shit and throw it and v dash, they can CA right threw all of that. Her v dash has a lot of recovery and I got blown out one time doing that.

Also, most players around my level simply jump over it lol. So I do her air elbow charge like you said.

Another good thing to do when doing her block strings is to switch it up into her v-overhead mid combo. It also crush counters and pops them up for a free Hard punch elbow charge. This only works in the corner. If you're not in the corner, just follow this up with a St. HK or something (not sure what to follow up with yet if not in the corner).
 
Well, shit.

someday I will stab Bison right in his gum

It's ironic that the only character I've managed to do hard survival is with Bison. It was surprisingly easy once I started taking advantage of the cheezy strategy I had.
Hopefully even locked DLC characters will be available in training mode. Wouldn't count on it though.
If they are then I have literally 0 reason to buy this year's season pass.

Which is why they won't do that.
 
Anyone have some good tips on how to get Birdie out of a corner? I'm pretty good with him at mid/long range but as soon as someone gets in close I tend to screw it up.
 
Well, shit.

I know your pain, trying to get decent alt colors for Karin. :\ I wish the difficulty of the AI actually went up gradually in later stages, right now it just gets a bit more and more aggressive until stage 26, where it all of a sudden starts blocking and throw teching and generally stop being completely braindead.
 
Played against a really bad silver necalli with 35 win streak. Obviously he rage quitted when I beat him. People are crazy.

Yeah, it seems her dash is very prone to be counter attacked out of. A good player punishes that shit hard. Even spammers can punish with low sweeps. But I didn't think of using HP bolt charge after V-counter hit in the corner, good advice.

As for that V-overhead counter outside of corners, i don't know either. Perhaps its best to go cr.HK for a knockdown which is always good in this game.
 
Why? It's not like anything else she has is safe on block cept charged vskill, and she isn't the only person that has moves that are safe.
Also some ex move have a 1 frame startup, like ken's EX srk.

Because she's already strong as fuck without. Her pokes are unreal
 
So the last 4 ranked matches I won I got no credit for. Of course the one I lose gets uploaded. If this game wasn't so fun, I'd throw my disc in a pool of acid.
 
So what does the connection levels actually mean? When I set it to 5 only it's naturally very lag-free, but as soon as I open up for 4 I'm matched against teleporting lag-monsters.
 
I know ranked seems kind of fucked atm, but how is it looking for story/survival? I've been holding off so I don't get disconnected or miss rewards. Keep waiting or safe to knock some out today?
 
Wish there was a way to practice parries for ryu. I just don't know enough about combo flow to really use it any.

Plus it's so so slooow when you do hit a parry.

Go to training and record Ken jumping in with MK followed up by a low MK, and try to parry both of them. That should be a good start.
