Dahlian

PSN: Dahlian (Norway) Still learning and have limited time, but can always take a few matches now and then.

Right, sorry. ^^;

I'll give that a go, still not comfortable with Rapid canceling, so I need alot of practice to use it properly. I've started to play a bit of player matches online, and I find it pretty difficult to initiate combos with Makoto. My best options seem to be B, 2B or CC, but often find me outranged or when I get close grabbed, particularly vs hakumen and Jin. Do any of you have any good advice on that?

That pretty much solved it. It was odd cause it was under mid-screen combos in the combo thread, which was a bit confusing.

Oh... what an epic fail on my part. Ok, I'll keep practicing the 2D, must be very strict timing on it. Thanks for asnwering my noobery.

Hello, new makoto player here. I had a few questions about her combos that I can't seem to grasp when practicing. These might be some very noobish questions since I'm not that familiar with the fighting game genre and trying to break ground with BB. 6A (Used as anti-air) > jc > j.C > j.B > jc > > dj.C 623C~D (LV3) My problem is I can't pull off the j.B without doing a dj whenever I do a j.c j.c, when I try to do so there seem to be too much recovery frames until she reaches the ground. So am I missing something here? Or is it just my timing that is out of place? ･5CC > 6B~C > 5D (LV3) > 2D (LV3) > jc > j.D (LV3) > 2B > 6A > jc > j.C > j.B > djc > j.C > j.B > 623C~D (LV3) With this one I just think my timing is off, but I'm having a really hard time trying to hit with the 2D, seems almost nigh impossible for me at the moment. Whenever I try this he recovers at the same time as my strike and it misses. Any help would be appriciated. And I don't know if this is relevant but I'm playing the console version, EU edition, with stick.
