Dacidbro Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 That one was bad, but bearable, I guess. You could actually do things in that matchup, no matter your position. With Ara, if you got cursed you lost (burst gave you one more try), carl if you got hit you lost (burst gave you one more try), and with Rachel you had to be the greek god of the world on defense if you got hit once, and if you got hit twice and put in the corner you lost, because of her guard break to instagib pole set ups.
DaiAndOh Posted December 21, 2010 Author Posted December 21, 2010 I'd rather play a million Jin's than one CT Arakune or Carl. Arakune does jump back cloud = INSTANT LOSS.
Lord Cruxis Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 I'd rather play a million Jin's than one CT Arakune or Carl. Arakune does jump back cloud = INSTANT LOSS. I rather fight Arakune than Noel or Carl, those match ups were ass. I couldn't do much about carl giving me the clap. :/
huey253 Posted December 21, 2010 Posted December 21, 2010 arakune and carl were probably bang's worst matchups followed by taokaka jin and noel taokaka is the most annoying thing ever, 2A chained into itself 8 times in CT lol mashing 2A beat all of your normals lolol
rei-Scarred Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 2A trolling? I thought it was called 2A winning.
DaiAndOh Posted December 22, 2010 Author Posted December 22, 2010 Noel was kinda bad for me personally, but it was WAY more winnable. She had to do more than do 1 move to win.
Justice7541 Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Only because she could drive through 5A and 5B, forcing you to do 2D, which was still nowhere near as bad as being able to beat everything you do with 2A (Tao), jump and win (Arakune), or 2A and win (Carl). I'd argue that Rachel isn't even necessarily that bad for Bang, since she sucks for everyone else as well.
ShoMeYaMoves Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 CT ara was winnable, I had to go through a loser's bracket filled with the buggers in CT. You just have to play super aggressive, remember how to deal with his gimmicks so you can punish everything you can, and do the absolutely HUGE awesome ara cha specific combos so you can kill him in 3 combos-ish. Those are still my favorite Bang combos. As for Carl, it's actually a true 9-1 matchup. You can only win against a competent CT carl if he makes a few catastrophic mistakes or you tech trap him x 99. The worst part about it was that your most basic bnbs would whiff on him randomly sometimes. Like CT carl in crouching CH state is under Bang's 5B hitbox iirc and other dumb stuff. Tao in CT was basically a tutorial in the necessity of IBing, once you learned to consistently IB 2B when she tried to stay in then punish with 2A into oki that matchup became alot easier. I didn't mind Rachel since it was really fun once you got in on her. <3 command grabbing 2C.
huey253 Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 CT arakune was winnable, but if they could block at all, it was REALLY hard... dnails are the only reason that matchup was winnable imo
sergetrigger Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 The only good thing about arakune is his stage music.
huey253 Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 i actually agree, for some reason whenever i hear it, it reminds me of sbo. Tetsu vs Fumo was too hype lol
Justice7541 Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 Lol there's no way he could ever be as bad as CT Bang. At least his normals aren't all -6 or worse on block.
Dacidbro Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 Static difference doesn't mean much if you always gatling :v
Justice7541 Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 Static difference doesn't mean much if you always gatling :v It does if nothing you have to gatling into is safe either. The only safe blockstring ender he had was to JC away on the 2B.
DaiAndOh Posted December 26, 2010 Author Posted December 26, 2010 So in Japan, Ashura is called "Dorakon" Next thread title. Just gotta let this one wear it's course.

Justice7541 Posted December 27, 2010 Posted December 27, 2010 ...Who are you? ah, too late, she's banned. Some idiot who thinks you shouldn't be allowed to do combos that are "boring" to watch, when you could be doing combos that don't actually work but which are "interesting." For example, why do 5A 5B 2B 2C when you could be doing 5A 5B 2D.
