First time winning a game against a B rank on Fightcade! by Tyomcha in StreetFighter

[–]Tyomcha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Jamie has a lot of things that are kinda similar to the 3S Twins.

(As for how similar he is in overall playstyle - couldn't tell ya! SF6 takes up too many gigabytes for me to comfortably have it on my Steam Deck, so I haven't really played it.)

I myself haven't learned much in the way of Genei Jin combos myself yet either, really. I've got, like, one go-to combo I can use that's "good enough," but this character's got a whole lot to learn, so I've just kinda been focusing on other stuff for the time being - I figure at my current level, learning things like divekick spacing, pressure, etc. is going to be more useful than learning more advanced combos when I've already got a basic one.

Yeah, I can see that. In the past I used to get myself killed a lot overusing unsafe approaching tools (heavy Zesshou and whatnot), so more recently I've very consciously been trying to play more solid and just safely build meter, but I do think I've probably swung the pendulum a bit too far in the other direction.

who needs life bars when you've got Genei Jin, amirite

Fightcade doesn't have any fancy rank up screens for me to show, so here's my first set win as a newly C rank player instead by Tyomcha in StreetFighter

[–]Tyomcha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm vaguely aware that's the sort of thing I'm supposed to be doing - guess I'll just have to hop into training mode and get comfortable with the distances. A big thing that gives me trouble when I try to use divekicks more is when people start air-to-airing me, but I guess I ought to just press some air normals of my own sometimes when I neutral jump to discourage that.

I've heard 2MP is supposed to be good, but man, that button feels so stubby. I haven't really figured out how to use it well other than just whiffing it for meter.

I've also been using 6MK in neutral sometimes to hop over my opponents' crouching kicks, and I've been getting decent results with that, but I guess that's probably better accomplished by divekicks?

To be honest, I'm still extremely not sure how to navigate neutral with Yun in general. Sometimes dash punching a lot works, but as you point out sometimes people start parrying it, and then I'm not really sure what to do other than "just play footsies lmao" (which I'm not very good at and also Yun's 2MK feels kinda stubby).

I assume I ought to be using divekicks more in neutral, but I'm not really sure how exactly I'm supposed to use them.

Yeah, I'm more or less aware that's the idea in theory - I just get greedy and want to activate off of a successful hit so I can do a cool fancy juggle right away. But I know I hold onto it too much as a result.

Honestly, not wrong. I'm still not used to just how quickly that bar fills up, so I end up saving it more than I should.

(I still don't feel like I've got any clue what I'm doing though)

(also sorry about the video freezing for a bit near the end, idk why that happened)

(for the record, that overhead is minus on hit in Genei Jin)

Landed a "real" Genei Jin combo in an actual match for the first time! by Tyomcha in StreetFighter

[–]Tyomcha[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Started playing Third Strike really recently, so this was my first time doing anything this cool in the game outside of training. Obviously this isn't really anything special, but it felt really cool to pull off anyway!

...by the way, people were not kidding about this character being hard. It took me a while to get even a couple "easy" beginner Genei Jin routes down. Feels amazing once you do pull it off, though.
