What you're asking is kinda nebulous, I assume you mean on ok after a successful 2d in a ground combo, rather then "what can I combo off a successful raw 2d?". For the later, the best thign you can go for with ky since his has a bad hitbox low to the ground so he can't combos off a 2d like most characters with a dp, like Sol. So if you have 25% meter, go for lightning sphere, 2d>FB lightning sphere, is actually ky's most damaging combo that's the most accessible it can take off like 1/3 of an opponent's lifebar depending on how high their damage modifier is. If you mean oki pressure/mixup after a 2d and then CSE on their wakeup. Then I'll say to start checking out eh-sama's Ky thread. It covers everything including mixup. But Ky is a character that has minimal mixup tools, his main aim is to grab the opponent x n. That's the only thing he really can do, which is why he gets tremendous damage now in AC+R off grabs in the corner. Fortunately unlike BB/P4U, grabs are nigh impossible to tech and they have an insanely fast startup. SO doing thigns like 2p>grab is very effective. But Ky isn't limited to use CSE for oki pressure. He also has jd/jFBd also known as "star oki" which if the opponent tries to mash out of it (unless they have a dp) or blocks the wrong way (if you know how to cross up with it) can also lead to really good damage. jFBd can lead into a grab or if you can tk it, you can go into ain or machaboo's pressure. Here's a bit of what eh-sama posts in his Ky thread: Also if you have questions post it in his thread since it's the most active right now.

GGs everyone, I really had a good time. >Doesn't place in BB >Doesn't place in GG >Gets 3rd in Gundam but doesn't even play the game lolwut? I really need to work on playing matchups for characters no one plays lol. I need to figure something out, but thanks for the advice shotokon about playing Ky thursday. Roldy I WILL consume your bishounen soul, your fate is inevitable. We need more free-health-care-combos sarcasm-mixup game and Pedro needs to stop dropping his Jean Chrétien hit confirm combos lol. I wish I could've stayed longer for some more GG. But oh well my matches with Omar, Roldy, and Louis were dope.

It's better than being littered with infinites and one-touch-kills. I hope we get a NA announcement with regards to the update to this game.

That's what I intend to do as well.

Just borrow someone's stick tomorrow. They'll be one available but stick to one brand when you're doing that though.

Thanks for the shoutouts lol

Alright thanks I forgot :p

Only just got home, and it's highly unlikely I'll be online at any point tomorrow. But if I feel like playing I'll post it up here. What are our options against people who delay tech in the corner again? 2b? :/

GGs everyone I had a lot of fun. Shoutouts to D.W's irl pressure string while drunk of "index finger>opponent's forehead>burst out laughing". Had a lot fo fun, only basically played Tager all day though :/

At this point I have a fairly good feel for most of Ky's matchups and eh-sama's write up of playing negative really helped my game. However I have a few simple questions against characters I still haven't really played yet at a high level: What moves should I avoid blocking from eddie to prevent his katame? How am I supposed to block May on wakeup? I typically guess wrong everytime. How am I supposed to play the Chipp/Millia neutral game since they’re always all over the screen? How am I supposed to deal with Jam on neutral and defense due to her rekkas? Are there any moves I should be weary of against OrderSol/Dizzy/Faust/Anji? Sorry if I seem demanding, but thanks in advance to whomever can help me with these questions

He's referring to Hakumen's overhead special: Tsubaki which does 2.2k. In which case he is right since the first hit of Zantetsu does 2.4k followed by the second hit which does 550. If spaced out well and used sporadically Zantetsu is a good move, but if you use it telegraphically it becomes an easy to block overhead that is also a waste of stars.

Sorry, a friend came to visit randomly. I wanted to netplay more -__- but I couldn't ignore him. if you're on early in the afternoon I'll head back on psn if you're up for it though.

Ohh that makes sense now. I was wondering why for a tech guy like yourself to have such bad connection lol. Watching documentaries?

It's usually 1/3 with 4 stars but netplay, until the second or last match, didn't want me to do kishuu after zantetsu.

I don't know why I'm posting this here in the Hakumen forums for the ex-lambda mod, but GGs toan. Like I said I didn't feel like breaking my stick while playing you since this usually happens online vs lambda. Btw the whole "negative playstyle" on lambda sorta works. What did you think toan?

I didn't wanna say it, but THIS. I know there was nothing wrong with my innanets since I restarted my ps3, and turned off all my computers and tested my innanets connection.

Mugen is now just a poor man's Kishin/OD, why use it when you could CONSTANTLY have 8 stars for 6-7 seconds and still have some left over after you're done your combo?

The startup of Yukikaze has been significantly reduced in CP, to the point where you can punish nu's 5d pretty easily along with Mu's projectile ball thingy.

Mugen is an all around bad move, it's worse than Sol's Dragon Install from GG. And that's just a super that helps you die in style. You could break 8k with 8 stars without risking Mugen so long as you're in the corner.

Could Sentinel Dump be a counter bait btw? I'm not exactly sure of the recovery but if Azrael can escape the newly improved Yukikaze then he must recover fairly quickly at least. Also Azrael is always indifferent in terms of his mood unless someone strong is around. You could see it in how he interacts with the other cast members.

Wow I can't believe Sentinel Dump is considered a projectile. -__- http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=IRt-aexWOmg#t=497s

Real talk. Sounds good.

I agree with Kongk4, if you go on ArcSys' channel the amount of views Xrd has makes that very clear.

I'll be online tomorrow so if anyone wants to play me in BB or GG let me know. By messaging me on either DL or one of my gaming accounts. Need to sharpen up my skills.
