I am not sure if this thread should be in charracter section, but I figured this is somewhat of general issue I am having.
So I am maining Jin, have been training combos for 2 weeks now mainly in practice mode, I started playing online recently and am able to connect around 70% of my combos.
The trouble I am having though is starting those said combos...
I just don't know how to get close to my opponent, if I block his shit and counter that's great I can get some nice combos off of that.
But the problem is that I usually end up in the corner from all the blocking and playing passively because every time I try to mount any sort of offence it gets stuffed in my face.
For example fighting Ragna there is no way I can airdash into 5B>2C>dash>5B>blah blah
Because the Ragna player just keeps spamming skills all over the place something inevitably will hit me midair.
I cannot just walk up to the guy and do 5B into 3k combo
Anything else usually resolves around very small damage, like if I catch him with some low jab I can go into 5B>5C>6C>214B unless hes crouching or its a counter hit.
So yeah that's my main problem, most damaging combos I know are corner combos. Since I am the one that is usually in the corner I end up doing small combos because I am usually out of range for a close 5B.
I have to try more of close jumpin combos with 5B or 2C maybe?
Thanks for any advice in advance.
