Poultrygeist

Many GG fans dislike BB a lot. Not every one of them, but just saying that liking GG means liking BB is quite wrong.

Oh you have noooo clue lol.

Did some testing today. Be very careful if you Task C while he has meter, if your shit isn't airtight he can HPB you. Aside from what we went over I think this MU might be ass for Pot though.

u wanna fking go m8 ill bang u out bruv So it seems like 3HS shuts him up if you see him about to go into stance. If you let him get there I THINK he can just smack you if you try it, but in that case you may be able to get in by timing your dash with the attacks. Needs more testing.

You tried 3HS? If they're really just playing coward they're gonna get hit by that or go into negative eventually.

Thinking I might do some work on the wiki page, it's looking pretty bare. The information on that Evernote page is pretty essential and IMO is a good place to start.

Share em!

This matchup is doodoo sometimes. I personally find that 6P is pretty useful here but you gotta be quick, that dash is pretty fast.

Looks like you CAN do it as you described. You might even be able to do it off a throw into that route.

You can SC it into DV specials too, if that helps any.

If you're quick you can 6HS (or f.S if you don't want to take risks) bridal expression on reaction. I don't know if raw bridal express is even such a good idea, but there it is. If you catch them trying her reversal super you can very quickly mash out a dash and be safe, but if you know it's coming it's probably better to just block and then 6P, especially since dash can be finnicky online. Crawl does NOT go under rocket launcher for some god forsaken reason. This move is also extremely fast so IDK what to do except jump it. Funny enough Bedman's idle animation where he falls backwards? THIS goes under the move. And all this is just silly week 1 Elph stuff. I really feel like this is gonna be a rough one guys. It's too early in her existence to say whether or not she's Bedman's lousiest MU, but it's definitely confusing, so any and all information is welcome IMO. All and all, my thoughts on this MU are https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o19CaOSuD8

It's special cancellable, so you can make it safe if it gets blocked.

Welcome aboard, the more Bedbros the better. I like 6HS on wakeup opponents, but I never considered that. It's a nifty idea, I might try it out especially considering how many of our KD combos end with Task B on certain characters. I'll concede to not using j.HS much, I usually use j.K j.S for my air approach needs. I'll give it a try though.

That really works? I tried that but with 5P/2P AND 5K/2K starter and it dropped on Elphelt.

Fucking around with IK combos before I pass out. Counterhit 6HS RC IK activation ToP works. I mean...it's something lol. I guess it's not that hard to land 6HS counterhit depending on your opponent. 1HS RC IK activation ToP in the corner also works but what are the odds of you hitting raw 1HS.

Since f.S is a decently ranged normal, what do the Bedbros think of RCing it into 6HS->special?

Bedman is an awkward character and truthfully he could be a LOT better, but I firmly believe that he is 100% viable. If he can have at least 3 well known players representing him in the jungle that is Japanese arcades, surely he can survive in the rest of the world where players are more often to rely on habits and conservative FG values, values and habits that Bedman turns completely on their head by his very nature. If you do drop him, I don't blame you because he's definitely not for everybody, it's okay to not play a character that doesn't click with you. Just that if you really enjoy him and you've put this much effort into getting over that initial strangeness hurdle, why not stick around? If nothing else, it's okay to learn more than one character or to just relegate Bedman to your sub. I agree with using his DAA as a defensive move. It's fast and safe and generally more reliable than Helios. Also don't forget our backdash isn't bad either, and we have forward dash as a semi-reversal option. We're at least way better off than chars like Venom when it comes to defensive options. Bedman's walk is fast as fuck dude. It's pretty good at getting where you need to be IMO.

FINALLY found a video of this god forsaken matchup: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm25150111 (begins at 11:31). It's not lookin' pretty dudes...granted it's possible this player may have done the MU incorrectly, after all this appears to be random netplay? It seems like rocket launcher is pretty damn fast because I saw it straight up shit on Task A/Prime attempt. It seems like her screen control is just too strong for us, we're very big and our shit takes time to set up. I'll probably try to dissect this later, I'm super tired right now. I'm just praying that this was a fluke/the player didn't understand El's game.

Bedman players to look out for: Tsubu, LOX, Mitsuru. Mostly Tsubu. Be warned that they play somewhat different styles so you may see conflicting tech.

Fighting this character makes me want to give a puppy the Stone Cold Stunner. Pls send halp.

Being the lazy piece of shit that I am I found this gem scoping another character's matchup threads. #scumbag. If I'm understanding this correctly, we could look at this like a flowchart when Millia gets KD and sets out disc. Sadly it seems like we can't dash through stuff if Millia is airtight. I guess the name of the game is to not let her get that advantage to begin with.

So with the complaints of 1.02 patch, have you guys noticed any issues even when playing other TX players?

Everyone else has one, we may as well have one too, right? My first question is, what would be the most recommended use of meter? I assume it would be using YRC to help strengthen our approach? Maybe blitz shield/FD since we don't have a reversal outside of backdash and a throw-vulnerable Overdrive?

My sincerest condoloences. This is really nifty, but due to the timing specifics and having to throw out one of Bedman's mediocre ODs I dunno if we'll get any use out of it. Still great to know. All I ask is for DV specials to not get cancelled out when someone hits a seal as you do DV lol. I don't think that would break him.

I think GG would benefit from a buffer but I'm fine with the reversal window. Do you really want a character like Sol with his annoying as shit offense to also be able to disrespect YOUR offense when you disrupt his gameplan?
