currentlemon Posted November 13, 2010 Posted November 13, 2010 I have trouble doing Carl's 2d loop. I can pretty much get the first hit easily. The problem is that the second hit is where I have trouble. It's because of 1. 2d doesn't hit I'm usually late. Or 2. I can't do j.2c>j.c.
feri Posted November 13, 2010 Posted November 13, 2010 You'll need to let the opponent fall further than what your currently allowing to give Nirvana more time to recover from 2d. When it comes to j.2c > j.c links you'll need to man up and learn it. If your current approach is to mash it out then that has to stop. Luckily for you BB's has a minimum of 5 frame button links so a little effort into timing can go a long way in terms of your execution. If you can react to your combo dropping (2d not coming out) there's no harm in trying to pick it back up like this... j.2c > j.c > JC > j.b > j.c > 8d > anything Edit: Lets not go down this slippery slope even though its an amusing one (damage control combos lol)
JG Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) Hey... i just have this dumb idea for a reset. What if you do something like this: on CoN: 5B,2B,5C,IAD glide toss 2]D[. The idea is to be able to crossup the 2]D[ with the IAD, most people tend to think that with Carl you only do IAD with J.2C, so they will try to just block as normal people do and the Glide toss is if they try to mash out with a throw and be able to land quickly and do vivance A for combo. Just some weird idea that cross my mind... Maybe isnt so bad. If someone want i could try to record this, but i warn you it just an idea. Edited November 15, 2010 by JG
ioKain Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 Well, another tourney, another 2 and out for me. I shouldn't start to worry yet should I? It's been right around 2 months since I picked up Carl and my second tourney with him. I must say I played significantly better this time around. I landed a J.2C, 5C, Volante in a 2]D[ loop combo for well over 5k and was getting some nice resets. Every round save one I had my opponent under 25%, I just couldn't close them out. I lost to Bang and then to my brother's Litchi. I took a couple of rounds from the Bang. Sigh, at this point I just want to post a W. I have a the Final Round Qualifier coming up in just under a month and I really wanna do well in that tourney. Back to the training room I go.......
ZONG_one Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 final round... qualifier? Also, keep at it, keep going to tournaments, keep playing. It's a great feeling to watch yourself place higher and higher each time.
Mascarpone Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 i'm proud of myself~ i actually pulled off 4D in a juggle combo today. in a match. too bad i dropped the easier allegretto 8D fermata finisher at the end =| from awesome to lame in seconds. woo! lol
huey253 Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 sorry for being so free zong, how do i fix my carl :3
Akira-Shiro Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 when it comes to the 4D loop v.v i cant never release the button fast enough before the 5C
Zoogstin Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 GG's Zong. Lag ruined our high damage combos but j.A never fails.
ZONG_one Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 sorry for being so free zong, how do i fix my carl :3 practice with me. GG's Zong. Lag ruined our high damage combos but j.A never fails. Yeah I know. I tried high damage and that didn't work. so j.A it is! MUAHAHAHAHAHHA.
Eshi Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 final round... qualifier?Ivysaur and I went to the one in Atlanta and he beat me. It's basically just, whoever places 1st/2nd gets free (or refunded) door fee and free entry for the game won. You also get a higher seed, which apparently just amounts to getting a bye first match.
ZONG_one Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 That's pretty cool. I thought at first final round was invite only, lol. mindfucked for a sec.
JG Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Hey, anyone know about Kyaku and Rarero? i haven´t seen a match in a long time from them. Maybe they didnt like CS 2 Carl XD
Kyle Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Reversing opponents air tech options: Corner combo with Ada. Use 2d or 8d for a kd. During this time Carl does avivace hold towards the corner and input back and b. If they fall into it meaty, the opponent will be on the other side of your y axis. Because Carl is backwards... 8d traps are free Irl keepin me busy right now.keep at it guys
Zeero Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 me too, but I think what hes saying is that you are now in the situation NOC|wall| so if you do 8D, the opponent has nowhere to tech (forward into a wall, backwards into nirvana) I think...
ZONG_one Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 That's what it seems like, right? That can be good. Now to find how to reliably get back to CNO>wall or NCO>wall without dropping the combo. :] Shouldn't be too hard.
Akira-Shiro Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 (edited) That's what it seems like, right? That can be good. Now to find how to reliably get back to CNO>wall or NCO>wall without dropping the combo. :] Shouldn't be too hard. while i got a NCO-Wall goin on i do reset in to 8D>5c>J.b>2D>5c>J.b>Allegreto>(8D>J.2c>Allegreto)3-reps>8D>Gear-super,,,,, for a go 40-50 heat, 5K, & it sets up for another reset if u delay the 8D after the DD.... also Zong u mind is we have a few matches... :[ I dont have carl experience even tho i play him. Id like to see how the rest of the character rooster would do against him...... If u dont mind that is Edited November 30, 2010 by Akira-Shiro
