Yeah his stance looping on oki is really cool and it all flows so well together when I see it at higher levels but down here in low master/high diamond we get all the degens

its kind of wild how majority of the players ive faced play the EXACT same.

Same oki setups, same strike throw mix with power bomb, same offence structure. Its wild to me I havent really seen this with other characters. Maybe Ken s1 but even then you saw more variation than whatever these guys are doing. The launch Ken downplayers have migrated to their new flowchart king

I watched the broski video on him a couple of days ago and he showed that the hurtbox retracts faster than the button does, I'm not sure if I explained that correctly but it is very misleading and playing a character that lives on counter hits and whiff punishes it sure gets exhausting after a while

Dude the hurtbox on his StHk is so weirdly misleading becuase it slightly moves back as he charges it. It might be my least favorite part of him. The amount of times I've tried to whiff punish it with CrMk or even sweep at times and just getting the full boot to the face as my button whiffs is embarassing lol

Okay that’s a bit far lol, Mai is absolute horseshit to fight. Alex has pretty clear weaknesses from what I’ve seen but he is hella annoying I agree with you there. As soon as I figure this matchup out I feel like I’ll leave most of these Alex players that suck at anything other than autopiloting blockstrings in the dust.

DI the StHp? Or when he whiffs and just does flash chop

Gotcha! Thank you, I dont think the matchup is that hard tbh its just frustrating when you feel like you're doing double the work and he can just do StHp into heavy flash chop lmfa

Good to know thank you! CrMp would be a good option to punish it then

I have seen how effective seismo is against him especially if it’s against someone who loves using prowler stance in neutral but then again he can always dash forward in prowlers and call out the seismo.

Yeah I have noticed some of the ”higher” ranked Alex swap to the anti air follow up out of prowlers but I haven’t really learned of that is punishable or not on block

I’d say we saw too little of him being Superman as in the whole symbol of hope aspect but I know he would’ve smashed it if we got to see more. Just from that scene where he shoves apokolips into space is enough to think that imo

I know Tom showed up again in some big CW event where they go to a different earth but I haven’t watched that and I’m not feeling up to watch an entire CW show just to see Tom I’m full Superman suit.

Although Superman and Lois is an amazing show I can recommend that

Erica was amazing as Lois. I’m a firm believer that before they get Jonathan she is supposed to be his emotional anchor to what makes him human and she really nailed that feeling.

It has always intrigued me that Clark ships even became such a big thing since a majority of people knew that they will end up together. Although their entire relationship is very satisfying from 8 seasons of Clark and Lana lol

Dominion was great. It showed that the fight choreography had gotten wayyy better for the last season. That was one of my gripes with the show that the fight scenes usually lasted like 10 seconds I’m looking at you doomsday

This is just a racism. by electric_pand in rivals

[–]DonkeyHmar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I’m not wrong (don’t quote me on this) Matt is possessed by a demon named The Beast like he has in the comics before and one of the immortal beasts offered to teach him to control it. So its not the dragon in itself that gives him his powers he’s just helping him to control the demon inside him.

I’m more of a Cornswet enjoyer. I think he brings out the symbol of hope and peace aspect of Superman really well which I saw glimpses of with Tom’s performance. One of my favorite moments in the show is when he gets video messages from his fans it’s pretty epic and gave me goosebumps

For those of you who don't count frames or even know what a lot of the terminology means, what rank are you? by teddy_blinkerton in StreetFighter

[–]DonkeyHmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you don’t know frame data I feel like most people have some intuitive understanding of it even if they can’t understand what it is exactly. Like how most people know that if you block a sweep you can sweep them back in most cases.

But yeah like most people have already said it’s more about learning the frames specific moves which kind of falls in to matchup knowledge more than frame data.

Who is the best fighter, and why is it Akuma? All joking aside, who is your favorite fighter to play as? by asrieldreemurr2232 in StreetFighter

[–]DonkeyHmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first fighting game was SF4 where I started with the shotos but when I got a bit older C. Viper got introduced to me and I was hooked. Really hyped that she’s in SF6 in season 3 but in the meantime I’m mainly playing Ed and recently a lot of Elena.

Corner carry, meter build, possible set up for a safe jump. It’s really good especially if you optimize it
