Phoeniks Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 i've said before hazama is unique, not bad, i'm not saying that. he's just very different and if you've been playing fighters for a long time, you need to think differently. i would agree that hazama has to be more defense oriented, but if you zone properly i think you'll be good. I don't think he's bad, regardless of his tier listing. The problem is, you need to be a lot more technical to do well with him. His three greatest tools are Jayoku Houtenjin, absurd heat gain from his combos, and snake zoning. I've gotten good at zoning, but I'm having trouble IBing like Zakiyama and I don't sqeeze in IB Jayoku enough. My biggest problem is how he's forced to be so defensive. His pressure is god awful, he doesn't have a continuous dash, and his normals are short range. I'm used to rushing down and playing footsies with characters like Ragna and Bang, so Hazama is a very new experience. I've been doing pretty well though. Training my opponents to air dash and using 214D~B works well. Psychic Jayoku's work wonders. On a related note, it's taking me longer than expected to use Makoto correctly. I pull of parry loop all the time, but her lack of range is something I'm not used to.
