g1Gilgamesh

Think that's a solid idea.

Psn is g1Gilgamesh I'm up for some games, even if my dislike for this version is immense.

I have the same feelings on the matter. Against any Faust that know what they're doing trying to play the footsie game has never really given me a stellar success rate. Neither of these characters really have good defensive options so I feel the person who gets in and stays in first tends to fare better.

I doubt winning one match counts as beating you pretty bad :P

Dood from Finland here. PSN ID is g1Gilgamesh, if you want somebody to beat on go ahead and add me.

Since Chipp's all over the place I think it's best to hold on to your swords and only deploy them if you get a knockdown. Otherwise he can just run, jump and teleport around the screen and the swords are too slow stop him unless they're already deployed and on top of him.

This, like so hard.

Dashing towards them as in hopping/ad'ing after them after the second kick or canceling the renka into kishuu after the first kick?

The issue I find is that kishuu only works when using it from around mid range, because any farther and it seems that jC and 2C just blow it up for free. So getting in from my experience is a real pain.

13, if memory serves.

Colors 9 and 13 all the way for me. As for Haku himself, I guess I'm just flexible because I've never had many bug issues with any of his versions. It does tick me off how his counters are getting nurfed, considering aside from his personality that's the main reason I picked him all the way in CT. As for repetitive combos, I do all the damage from random hits anyway so I get to combo so rarely I guess that keeps even repetitive combos fresh haha. I guess I'm just used to playing with whatever crappy hand I'm dealt with, for better or worse.

Fells like it'd be the only thing that's help getting through his blockstrings other than garden variety poking, which I'm rubbish at btw atleast considering how badly I got blown up for it. That and that he could backdash out of my pressure with relative impunity, unless I tried guessing a gurren, hotaru or enma in there but felt kinda risky.

This matchup I swear, needs 1f 6D.

Kinda defeats it purpose that way, doesn't it?

Right I just have to ask, is there any plausible use for 6d anymore? My hair grows faster than that things comes out.

There is that, or you could check out the combo thread here in the forums.

That was actually pretty funny they had chin as a 4th member.

Dat DeDeDe theme.

If you hit the lobelia, the staff will still come out. The barrier itself stays out until either rachel runs into it or the barrier expires.

Another Haku combo video: pt 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40Lfd2aK4Gc&feature=feedu - pt 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8t8WMVcAZk&feature=feedu

Now that you pointed it out I think I've been always sort of trying to go straight from 9 to 6 or 7 to 4. I'll have to test it, thanks.

I'd like to ask fellow stick users a question: How do you exactly input the IAD? (I have a square gate) 'Cause I know for a fact that the way i try to do it is somehow gimped because my airdashes come either too slow, or i just end up doing a small jump before the actual dash comes out. Makes the change to tsubaki & hotaru really annoying when due to that i can only do tsubaki stuff in the corner and the hotaru stuff aside from really high hit goes out the window too.

Might as well... XBL: g1Gilgamesh Maining Haku, occasionally fool around with ragna/tager
