Made it to F5 rank online just now.

Does anybody have any advice on how to stop these endless strings ? It’s like the offensive character is always on plus and I’m always on negative as the defense ... when do you attack Jesus ....

Also :russ: at the reversal edge , I thought you needed meter to use that shyt but it turns out you have unlimited ammo on that thing



Most annoying characters so far :

Nightmare
Raphael
aside from down A like the breh said to interrupt, you'll want to AA check to see if strings are punishable. AA is most characters fastest punish, and once you properly punish unsafe strings and attacks with AA, it'll stop opponents from thinking they can get away with anything

RE is actually the fastest way to GAIN meter, from the initial hit, and winning the exchange. if you low on meter and/or don't want to deal with a mixup, go for RE. then if you don't want to lose, just guard or back away. that stops the exchange if successful

Yes I noticed the meter gain too

I’m just going to have to switch my mindset with this game I’m trying to play it like tekken, but this is more fast paced

Trying find frame traps for counters

I’m having a hard to reading characters and predicting moves but that comes with learning a new game I suppose

I always wondered what devs be thinking when they let certain characters have all their moves from previous games plus adding some but then turn around and strip another character. What sense does that make?

And from what I can tell Taki is the ONLY character gutted like this. Everybody else seems to still have their standard bullshyt. I'm super pissed they ruined my character man. I be playing these nikkas on ranked and i can literally see where a non nerfed to hell Taki would rape these dudes.

Dont forget about guard impact. forward plus guard. Will knock back any attack.

This is generally a good idea but you have to remember that since AA is a high if the other guy crouches or uses a move that high crushes which are moves that attack while dodging high attacks (best example is Maxi A+B) then you're gonna eat more damage.

well, i did say "AA check". If you block something then AA to attempt to punish it, and they block it or crouch or high crush or do anything other than get hit then you got your data for next time. better to figure out things on the fly then leave damage on the table while they spam shyt and get away with murder. of course the best course of action is to go into training mode and record the dummy doing whatever move/string that was getting at you then immediately block. hit playback and see if its safe, or if it can be punished with AA, BB, or one of your characters' launchers. Also good to see if you can just sidestep it to the right or left

don't you get money to buy more customizations? haven't looked into it much myself. I direct new players to it cuz its where the tutorial is
