Ragna va Arakune is slightly in Arakune's favor? And Tsubaki still has no 3:7s? I'm unsubscribing.

Sounds like a lack of distinction between newb and casual. A newb is simply a new player, when I played AC, it was on controller, I didn't know shit about FRC/slashback implementation, and the only combos I knew were the obvious conventional kind, but it was damn fun, and I did get the hang of tighter combos after a while. "Newbs" will grow to get better without someone or an easy mode to hold their hand. As far as casual gamers go, they should take a 'beginner mode' approach, but instead of taking anything out, or changing the layout, just simplify the mechanics so they aren't as tight, like a change in buffering, a grab button, etc. Hacks in smash shows proof that different buffering systems can co-exist in real time matches, so it's not impossible.

Coulda fooled me.

investing in manzuri now?

I'll be watching, don't let up.

In this regard you'll have to dodge her attacks, don't try to jump out, and backdash when you get the chance, I understand how her 6C works, but if she whiffs an attack due to your backdashing, she won't have the time to actually hit you with it, you'll block it at worst, if I recall correctly, her DP is super unsafe on block, so I don't quite understand how it's unpunishable for you, learn to IB it, that way it's more beneficial, because you get even less recovery IBing something in the air than you do on the ground. Her steins aren't doing anything if she's not setting them, and they are easy to dodge, due to Arakune's air mobility, he can avoid lasers and Mu at the same time if you know what you're doing. From what I've seen Mu's mixup is worse than Ragna's, if you spend a little time to learn how to block, then her melee game isn't all that good as far as pressure goes. Still, the match up revolves around being patient and biding your time, the stage is neutral if the lasers can't hit you, and Arakune has more tools than anyone else to make sure they don't.

If you wanted to mix up/reset into the j.c starter, you'll use the methods they listed. The method I provided was if you wanted to say "fuck the mix up" and try j.c off the back.

Most fighters were Street Fighter or some other Capcom game to begin with. So as far as SF4 goes, it revived the Capcom fighting game sub genre. Niggas tend to confuse that for the whole FG community pretty easily.

This fucking thread should be wiped clean and restarted with a clean slate and strict enforcement.

Unfortunate.

Too risky. Just backdash, less recovery, won't throw him in CH status if he tries and/or gets hit, etc, etc. All around the better option.

How are his mix ups? They don't look too hot from what I've seen.

Good read.

Do it faster.

What's the old adage about successful trolls?

IB backdash, watch as she makes an ass of herself. Noel more than likely won't approach you, what with her lol 5D, set up zoning grounds, let Noel come to you.

lol "escape combos". This ain't smash. Take it, burst or learn to block.

[c] delay j4cd > j2c > c bug > d bug1 > d bug 2 [c] - buffer c bug delay j4cd - Jump forward, and a split second longer than usual, hold 4 (backwards) and press c and d almost simultaneously. j.2c - c dive, this actually whiffs c bug - The c bug connects after the j.c d bug 1 - the d bug on the way down d bug 2 - the d bug on it's way up. However, quite frankly if you can't understand the notations by the expert tutorial, you need to stick with beginner and intermediate and practice more.

The one that I introduced in the expert tutorial was a straight up j.c cross up. The combo in the wiki is a reset/mixup, don't regard them as the same.

About as easy as they get, pal.

J.c FC > j214c > 5d > sj.a > j.c > j.2a > DC 5d > sj.a > j.c > j.d 2C FC > 5a > j/8a > j.c > j.2a > DC 5D > sj.a > j.c > j.2a > DC 5D > sj.a > j.c > j.d The red font is the standard notation, but dive loops are character specific, that notation won't work on everyone, check the OP video thread and the combo discussion thread for other characters, and ask around if worse comes to worst.
