Vegeas Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Any tips for fighting Ramlethal? Seems like one of I-No's hardest matches. Her range with the swords is too good.
PacStrife Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 My biggest advice would be, learn ram specific combos/timings because she can be weird to combo. Other than that it's one of those "who gets the first knockdown" kinda fights. So be smart with meter usage, as you might need that dead angle or note yrc later in the match. Smart bursting is a must as well, normally only when you get cornered if you can help it. The only other advice is have is knowing when you have to respect her pressure/normals
Vegeas Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 How would you deal with the ones jumping and running and placing swords everywhere. To me, it seems I-No can't escape Ram's vertical and horizontal swords.
TD Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Hcl in range to punish sword summons both on ground and in air. Get used to max range hcl. Movement is key. Knowing the plethora of movement options ino possesses will help to survive neutral better. 66, 663, 66 airdash, even dive and stbt can get you out of stick situations when a sword is about to teleport and attack. Respect her equipped 2s, a slower, but bigger version of el's. Approach wise, it is difficult to deal with because of shuts down ino dash in, low profiles hcl, kills stbt. Getting hit by it also sucks, and even has a slow frame trap with equipped 2h. You get a few opportunities to shoot note, make the most of them, because that is your safest bet in vs ram. This advice is quite elementary in nature. I won't pretend to know too much about the matchup, besides these things, but it has been quite useful. I recommend taking a look on the ram forums as well, how to block ram if she gets in and what to expect from her oki.
choysauce Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Been doing some lab work to see what options we have and make some canned responses for Ram's tools. Let me know if there's anything we can add to this or if something needs to be corrected http://www.evernote.com/l/Ae9KC_RdJpdP0Kx1gvGa-bEwnneYplpyao8/
