Stabbing? Oh my.

Your only bet is to keep ignis out and try to keep advantage by using strong fundamentals. Also be aware if her graviton, fireball, trap, and teleport and every silly thing they can do in conjunction with each other. Jxd is your safest bet for going air to air, and you must be basically midrange. None of his normals will beat hers in the air unless he is above her, and her 6a, obviously top 5 in this game, you're not beating that either.

You can't "beat" kokonoe without seriously locking her down or just outplaying her. She doesn't outright lose. That is why a strong fundamental game is required.

Double checked, stabbing people is illegal, and is generally frowned upon. Too bad about that Mac.

 

Problem is J.XD is beaten by j.A too, and then her j.B/j.2C can be canceled into to beat all of our other options. Maybe this is what j.214B, that air to air we never use, is for??? I need to do some soul searching in the lab. =_=

 

Yeah, not letting her do a darned thing sounds like the easiest solution, but that's been what we've been doing day one. So far the basic game-plan for Relius versus Kokonoe is "Lock them down so hard they just put down the controller, and maybe cry a little."

 

Problem is we can only start pressure if we play a better neutral than Kokonoe on the outset. Even then, Relius works on a timer, so if Ignis goes, that plan dissolves and then we're dead. For Relius to run a game completely on pressure we have to; first beat Koko's neutral with our own, keep Koko locked down, then get past her defense while maintaining enough Ignis juice to get 50% gauge, corner carry, and corner oki, then manage to desummon ignis while she's in a corner combo after a successful corner oki, all the while predicting bursts, counter assaults, teleports, and her DP fire ball perfectly. To win like that requires an incredible amount of precision, skill, and good fortune. One mistake and you're dead, or you're in a blockstring or at neutral, watching as all your hard work comes crashing down, wishing you were dead.

 

I think all we need is something to fall back on that isn't "Drop Relius for Kokonoe." I will endevor to find that something.

pick bang and mash yourself into a blind fury

You might have fun playing some of my friends, Cookie. They're learning the game and don't really have any Mu experience.

 

...Oooo. :3

 

Well, invite me sometime. I guess I'm one of the last surviving Mus after all.

 

You can't do that now. Apparently everyone loves fighting Rachel so.

 

Those people are crazy. They don't know the horrors of flying pumpkins, poles, and evil bats of doom.

Cutting George is my stress ball.

 

Mac I know you play Haku-men, but share with me the feeling of being Relius for this journey through one of life's great joys.

 

You are playing a masked pervert with a flying robot wife. A loli vampire throws her frog at you and uses airbending to help her minion on its way. You are smiling to yourself. You then spring forth with all the speed of a particularly fast cheetah who is also on performance enhancing drugs. You are using 3C to karate chop the evil frog into oblivion with your robo hands. You are jump canceling the 3C cuz you can do that on hit and instant air dashing at the one who spawned the demon frog. You are j.B-ing the loli Vampire for a 4500 damage corner combo. You are the world's happiest masked pervert.

GGs people I played last night.

 

If I get 6D instead of yukikaze one more time, I am going to end myself. Netplay has become the ultimate gamble.

we can try, sure. I'm not hopeful because my connection with azure flame god was unfortunately hella bad and that's roughly around there. Can try tAzhough.

 

Azure and I always have great connection with each other when we play, but the last match we played there was a HUGE lag spike.

I got new router 2 or 3 weeks ago and it has the game thing (so my UPnP is available) so I don't know, I might have to set a static IP.

Bah, i need to learn more female characters.

Up next: Makoto, Rachel, Bullet, and/or Tsubaki

 

By the end of this, everyone will be saying at least once "Damn, SWD is playing my waifu again..."

Yup GGs. Pretty sure that's the 5th time that's happened to me.

 

Should be burst baiting instead of astralling but.
