2b jb loops, 5b jb loops, 5AA 5b 236sb 6D dp 5aa sweep 236a 6B (should be able to super off of it too) , 5b 236sb 6d dp 5aaa 4a dp 236236A , 5b 236sb 6D dp 5aaa 4c 6B 236236A/B , (not a legit hit combo until after grab ) 236A/b/sb 6D grab 4a 4c 4b hold 4c 4sb 4D 6B (or dp super) just a few things i do that help me

Yea i tried some combos off of the video link that i said i loved and i found that fure sure some are impossible based off the cyclone lvls that were used believe me i tried the exact same order and when he was at 2 i was at 3 and the combo was shorter

hey Fogel i watched your vids and i noticed a very common mistake. Well i dont know if your second guessing yourself or tricking your opponent (attempting to) but you have a bad habit of dropping combos that could lead to long ones. Also learn the auto combo options aki has example there are combos that if done right they wont tech out of the i believe 3rd hit. But I dont want you to finish the combo with hook into a screw but a nice fancy double upper into a new combo or you can be a pain and weave back real quick into a nice heavy screw off the wall and into a super of your choice. Positive notes, You seem to know all the basic options and you seem to be a calm player your not rushing and making many dumb mistakes. Side note learn a more variety of combos for aki has many especially combos you can work off of his 236a 6d grab that you love so much ( i do it to =] ) i know i often sweep after the stun and combo from that. Have fun training and Add me if u want on psn Ajsnipes9

was the video before the patch?

I understand what u mean dacid XD and ive worked on that since that day =]

the only succesful way to fight a mitsuru as an aki that ive found is to stay in her face never corner yourself, bait her dp and counter it never end a combo string with kill rush, sweep, AOA, or boomerang hook if the first couple hits were blocked in other words fall back and be patient (214D ). But never get out of her face if ur dp'd recover as soon as u can and avoid that whip note if u run with aki the whip cant hit u (not the one from above) other than that learn some long combos because her health is just as good as your own and for a female the chick can take a hit. And for the love of god Dont Throw Double uppercut without a way to cancel it if its a stand alone thats just asking to die

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ44wH-N4B8&feature=youtu.be My progress as an Aki player

I <3 this video TY!

Now dumb the playing field down to newb and not kubo aka common ground and aki starts to struggle. But Aki in hands of pro lvl is close to unmatched which i noticed long b4 i played the game the first time

tell that to everyone else who doesnt play aki they seem to think otherwise. Personally the only match ups i have issues with are the ones that include Mitsuru, Elizabeth, and Yukko and the occasional good Aigis. Yu to me is even minus the over used dp, Teddie to me is a near ez win now, yo is just annoying to catch, aki vs aki to me is just good fun, Labrys is even, S.Lab easier then reg in my opinion, Chie is 50/50 depends on if i time that block thats an over head into a low kick she has and finally the oh so mighty Kanji is just a footsie match Yay mind games.

at least dudley wasnt out matched (match up wise) in almost everything in his game XD

i must use this info i have acquired

http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Akihiko_Sanada_(P4Arena)

oh he has bad matchups all around you kinda have to beat around to find the other characters weaknesses to win as well as knowing your options aki is best for getting air combos off into pressure then learn the rushdown tactics and just exploit your opponents weak points also use frame data to your advantage. i like to call Aki the 2b God of persona =D

u have to keep pressing it i believe but to be honest unless im offline i wouldnt dare take the chance to do an instant block on a multi attack as if it were a parry on third strike for a while. unless its fucking yu's dp that thing is a nusance

I feel like Yu is the most even match up for aki or is that just me?

sooooo i just noticed you can combo into an AOA if you connect a EX Boomerang hook O.O dont know if this is already known through out the forum but i find it to be handy if you ever land one

super lame _-_

I use this for pressure often 5aa (or 2a) 5b kill rush B. Hook (A) weave© B.Hook (A) Duck (D) Corkscrew (B) now that cork at the end is a fatal counter so if they get hit either they fly or they fall but a block is possible but the duck is confusing for most players. also for those over blockers i use Duck (D) throw since is the fastest thing to use there. also mentioned earlier the lovely sweep kill rush (a) is handy and for those fights against the annoying teddie j.c seems to work well if spaced correctly

Ok so this is grinding my gears i have completed story mode with every character the only character thats not unlocked is shadow lab yet I beat the story of every character with gold p1 status so im confused as to how to beat it at 100% b/c im stuck at 98% T_T

Hmmm did not realize the short hop resets the cyclone meter. This could be used effectively if u have 150 meter and want to do the triple upper cut tactic which has come in handy a bundle of times for me. Hmm if you some how miraculously manage to stun them with a boomerang hook fatal counter then short hop into a triple upper that would do damage

completely random but hey guys add me on psn Ajsnipes9 and i play AKi of course Sig color pallet so far aki 4 ceasear 8 im also a good friend of ShinSyn aka TheNobleYellow

i swear i hate that bear -_- but yea like skye said above ^ please be on the offensive if your in his face and try your best to keep him on the ground

Easiest way to take down the bear is Pure rush dont give him any breathing room b/c he becomes ultimately annoying at distance but up close watch for the bat weave C and cork it and for the love of god avoid the darn A spam it will annoy the day lights out of you (just side step it when you see a claw reach at you) as for anything mid air that perfectly timed j.b is useful oh and if u get stuck blocking the A spam the third contact hit just FC it. remember DONT LET THE BEAR BREATH!
