Wat the match-up for Carl vs Ragna

No its not ok to block, because then it leaves everything to chance. Ragna Gauntlet Hades comes out extra fast for an overhead. If i IB i can backdash wit tager, Tsubamegishi wit Litch, inferno divider wit ragna, Arrows of ice wit Jin, DD chin kick wit hazama, DD wit Bang, backdash wit Arakune, DD wit Tao, Electric Chair wit rachel, DD/D wit Haku-men, Dp wit Tsubaki, Dp wit Makoto, DD/D wit Noel, ?.? why not carl

My whole objective is to punish before the special attack comes out

Wat can carl do to punish ragna during this pressure sting 5b>5C>special attack ( That dont involve heat/vivace)

OOO ok cool :] good to kno, now if ull excuse me iv got some ragnas to annoy...... wait wat if they do another inferno divider after the clash ?.? cause iv seen lots of stuff clash wit inferno divider -_- so ragna just did it again

I agree matches like carl vs tager/Arakune/Tsubaki O_O Ragna can reverse anything wit 50 heat, IB to inferno divider & if someone baited it. Rapid into J.C, the stun on inferno divider last extra long so u cant anti air him out of it. T_T all carl got is counter assault

-_- lol not even, i use ragna & everyone know inferno divider dont even hit that far, if he did nuthing it would have still missed. Its more like a distance thing if ur in the middle of pressure. If u stop it to bait 623C & u do 2B ur getting hit besides only noobs do wake-up inferno divider (at that range there just a lil slow ) anyway. I said IB to inferno divider ( if u look close at the vid ull notice the carl player moved back a lil before the final inferno divider

It looks to me its more like a distance thing, if ur in the middle of pressure & u drop it to bait ur better off blocking then doing 2B

Also iv been wondering if Carl IB ragna when is the best time to do 5a/2a/vivace ?.? cause i went to training if u IB ragnas 5b/5c ?.? if u do 2a or 5a they both give him counter hits for his next move. IB 5b 5c gets counter, IB 5c he gets a counter wit hells fang ?.? if u use vivace after 5b, 5c hits wit no counter ( like vivace didn't come out but ur still no blocking. The only thing u can do in counter assault, vitabilets, or vivace ONLY after 5c. Vivace will only work if he do hells fang/gauntlet hades but 2D give him counter hit on vivace. Ragnas pressure is F-ing godly ?.? or am i missing something

OOOKKK thats wat i was lookin for, In CT & CS i play everyone, & im able to IB and turn someones block string around. Into me dishing out dmg, so carl has no way to reverse pressure for his own good. -_- That sucks ass, at least they could give him inv frams on vitabilets. Owell the only characters that give me problems are ragna & Haku-men :[

Question if i IB Haku-men can i use 5a on him, i never use this because when i try on ragna he gets a counter hit, 5a or 2a =/ thats kind sad.

Would u be so kind as to tell me wat are carls combos that deal oh so much dmg. Cause all i got are his 2D loop, 6D loop, & 8D corner loop none of them deal 4/5k even wit a counter, unless u use a distortion. & fyi im talkin about the console version of the game, a patch was released making it version 1.01 soo ?.? my carl & urs might be diff since u got the arcade version

Lol i already kno how to escape, but the point im trying to get at is defence wise vivace is useless. So if u dont got 50 heat for a counter assault Carl cant safety evade pressure. Back dash is unsafe depending on the character & 5a/2a dont work after an IB against everyone. ?.? So wat are u suppose to do

Can someone plz tell me wat carl has that is an actual threat to Haku-men. Cause i got nuthing....... except Carl VS Haku-men equalls carl

?.? Im confused on this matchup & how it can ever be 6-4 more like 8-2 or 9-1 in Haku-mens fav. So lets get all this down A. He can air dash knowing carls anti-air cant affect him. B. He can force/scare carl out of pressuring him. C. His BnB wit 3 magatama deals 3/4k dependind on the current position. D. A counter into a distortion deals 4.5k half of carls health. E. His ability to create orbs from hitting a projectile ie no volante unless nirvana is behind him. F. Cannot escape his pressure wit vivace/distortion because of his swords Large hitbox /ability. G. Unless ur using all pro combos ur doing nothing to his hp, maybe 1.5/3k depending on the situation. H. Ur only advantage is if u can trick him into ur combos that only deal at the most 3k ( IF u manage to trick him ) I. If u try to stop his approach with nirvana he can block then 5C her taking alot of life ( from the lil she had ). J. After using resets they begin to notice when its coming and evade it or counter it, either way u fail.

>.> they spam the characters low attack to trip me :[ vivace doesnt give the lower half of his hit box inv frams. Soo if vivace isnt suppose to be used for evading ?.? Carl cant escape pressure

I already do that but if im being pressured i want to kno how is carl suppose to get out. Im trying to say defence wise vivace is pathetic, & trying to escape a corner with it isnt safe. I give my opponent a counter hit when i get up

I hav a question why is vivace so useless, iv used it after IB & hav got hit wile behind my enemy ( there facing the wrong way ) & they turn around to keep the combo going

KB_dset_93 he no longer plays haku-men in CS

Noo i mean cancel a IAD into a barrier block, ur essentially pressing 866>5D> 4ABD(hold D) This lets carl cancel his dash animation with his "activate nirvana" animation, this gives u the ability to go into a barrier block.

Can carl still cancel a IAD with a barrier block

Omg they made Carl a beasts in CS. Can he still cancel a IAD with drive into a barrier block

If his 5C stops a roll, then volante hits u can start a 2D loop off of the volante

Gettin in hard, but keeping him in is even harder. This guy... his reflexes are sharp, if i IB he goes for a lotus because vivace/ back-dashing gets me hit so im forced to sit a wait for an opening. Anytime i pressure him he turns it around by scaring me wit IB. If i try 2a>5a>IAD> J.2C the J.2C eats a counter ada cant help because of her doing a 6D before my 2a>5a. Lets just put it this way mind games, resets, oki's, & pressure dont work on him :[ the only time i hurt him is if HE messes up something. I dishout as much dmg as i can then go for pressure or a reset neither of them work. & without resets, pressure, mixups, & clap loops carl ends up

I was talking about the 2D loop is CT, Not CS i dont have access to any CS. The closest arcade place is in Newyork.
