Usually a nicely timed JHFB will knockout Venom.

Hmmm I would think baiken would be very hard though since she does have nice pokes.

Fought a very good JO player at a-kon who was an 8 out of 10 on play, my baiken still won even when i didnt know the new AC combos (not like she changed anyway, just got better).

I kinda hate to go agianst Dizzy, i cannot navigate in swarms of fish.

Yea I witnessed first hand now why Pot is S tier. Only beat isaac from team 9000 potemkin 1 out of 19 times. Mind you I nvr play on crt so I wasnt use to "no lag" and I never actually played a fking S rank potemkin player. I mean god damn can potemkin move and hurt with them unblockables. Lucky JO can backdash most of it so I could end some matches with atleast a round and more.

Think Ima say Potemkin is my hardest match up for JO.

Played awesome Anji players too ar SE casual , one I couldnt beat from the team 9000 crew, but I was just being stupid and forgetting how to counter Fuujin.

Hated Matchups: Baiken, Ky, Slayer, Millia

Favorite Matchups: Testament, Venom, Dizzy

Baiken's counters ruin my offense. I try to mist cancel and punish her counters, but if she doesn't counter, I sit there like a retard, and either way, it still kills my momentum.

Once Ky gets a good knockdown on me, if he has a good air-game, I'm never getting out of the corner unless I have mad tension.

Slayer dodges my pokes and punishes them with random pilebunkers too much. I get scared of throwing out f.S', and it kills my offense.

Millia is just too damn fast. I can't land anything reliable on her... i just throw out semi-safe pokes and pray to god she runs into them.

Any advice on these matchups appreciated.

Testament, Venom, and Dizzy are all matches I love. Not really because they're good matchups, but mostly because playing against their playstyles is so fun. Projectile evading and rushdown countering fun.

Hate - Baiken, May, and Zappa (Ky and Axl depending on the player can be a real cheese bag)

Love - Everyone else especially taller characters because the weight makes it easier for combos and their height makes it easier for cross-ups.

I really hate playing agains HOS due to his constant pressure and easy wall combos and such:psyduck: ahhhhhh somebody help me

I hate Johnny vs Testament fights....every time I try to dash or KJ DB inside I always eat a tree or blood trap even though I think I miss them...and without Jackhound it's tough to get inside and set up Johnny's cross-ups...had one last night with my friend and it wasn't pretty. Ugh, any advice would be great.

And don't get me started on Baiken...that fight alone is worth me learning to mist cancel to perfection...damn counters.

Hated: Baiken

Goddamn, the one I play against isn't that great in terms of being able to to use your full damage combos, but that doesn't matter, because he's awesome with the GC's. So lame, it's like KH-MC OHSHI- I got countered already. And boy do I feel stupid on the rare occasions where I hit him with a random H, and he DOESN'T GC it.

Posted

Zewo, try throwing a coin instead of MCing the hard-slash. If he does the get-out-of-jail-free-card GC then he's screwed. Counter-hit coin into huge damage.

Once he gets used to that, start throwing two coins instead of just one.

Once you've got him scared to do that particular GC, you can start MCing again.

favorite matchups: chipp, millia, jam, testament (all are easy damage)

hated matchups: potemkin (shuts down anything i throw at him), sol (too many good aa's that johnny can't do shit against), ky (632D traps make mobility next to impossible against good ky players)

Posted

New hated matchup: Robo-Ky. Every time I think I can get in, I eat a CH missile and basically lose the match. He is not easy to air combo off MFL2 low, and most of JO's pokes wiff over his annoying-ass 2K and 2S.

Posted

any time a robo ky player starts off a round with the machine gun (see: every round) just throw a coin. he doesn't get his third hit and you get a free level 2 setup.

and if you have a hard time landing low level 2 combos (which i do too against robo) then either use high level 2's or set up a high level 3.

You know what, I'm going to lock this thread.

You wanna tell people how much you hate a matchup, that's fine by me. But what inevitable happens is that someone is going to start discussing the matchup and discussion should happen in the associated thread in the matchup forum.
