Wait, barrier pushes you back even if you're doing a ranged attack? O_o Geez, I never knew that. I'm not that good at IB.
It's a work in progress though. I still IB a lot of Nu's swords, but it's more by accident. Like I'll just try to block and it'll end up being an IB. I tend to just get by on predicting my opponent's behavior, waiting for an opportunity, and my counters. There have been so many games where I was at like 1% life and got a counter and won. I'll try to condition them to throw a sword I want so I can get in.
Haku's blockstrings are kind of easy for Nu to backdash out of, it makes it hard to keep her pinned down for any long period of time , seems like the best way to get damage is CH. -
And yeah, I've been CH out of trying to Kishuu between the j.DD's before, but other times I'll land an Enma. Although you can't really follow up with a combo from that since it launches her so high she can tech before you can do a falling j.C :P Maybe just jumping after that and doing j.2C > IAD j.C would work though.
-
Oh, actually, that does happen too. Sometimes it's a low from 3C, sometimes it's a fake crescent then a run in and grab, or it's a real crescent. There's like five layers in there. :P I didn't think of just jumping back and barrier blocking though. That seems kinda... like a last resort though. I'd rather just try to figure out how to beat it instead of put off the problem, so to speak, since it wouldn't let me turn the momentum around. I do 6D if I think it's going to be a real Crescent, but if it's fake I get owned.
-
Hm, maybe I'll have to upload a video to show you what I'm talking about. Between that and j.DD > Fake Crescent > j.DD > Real Crescent Nu can generate a lot of pressure that basically locks Haku down and which he seems unable to punish. Sometimes I can Kishuu > Enma between the j.DD swords but not always.
-
Hey qwerty, got any ideas what Haku can do if Nu rushes in with (maybe 2A) > 2B > 2C > TK Crescent / Fake Crescent > more mixup? I tried 5A'ing the Crescent, she's too far. I noticed 5B can hit her but sometimes I get CH out of it first. Is there something you know that would beat it clean? My other idea is to just try and counter the 2B or something.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr679uBtNPA&feature=related Check this match out. The positioning on both sides is pretty intense.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr679uBtNPA&feature=related This match is pretty neat. A lot more positioning it seems on both sides.

I actually have an easier time beating rush down Rachels... it's funny because the ones that rush down have to coordinate all this stuff and it seems to take a lot more skill, but then they can just go spam lobelias and it becomes hell, but that seems a lot easier.
-
lool Rachel can take off like 50% of Hakumen's life with just one BBL, more if you have rods. And don't get me started on CH fork > winded into the corner damage.

Hey Prototype, you been playing SSF4 a lot? We'll get some games in soon. I've just been goofing around with my brother and Keir Tendril for the most part, so don't expect a challenge. :P

I was thinking of taking a break since I've gotten worse and what I hate is not only not improving but making REVERSE progress. But wow, you pretty much pinpointed exactly what I feel like my problem is. I definitely backslided in some areas and I forgot some things I used to do in certain situations... like I can REMEMBER doing things but it's like something on the tip of your tongue that you can't grasp. I had Jin's pressure all figured out but now I'm back to the stage where I just get pushed into the corner and raped until I'm dead. How do you guys train yourselves to do things? For instance, I used to 6A any jump ins on reaction every time, but now I just watch them come at me and don't do anything. I'm like, "Oh, they're IAD'ing at me. Isn't there a move I should do? ... ... Oh, 6A. But they might be distancing themselves far enough to punish me for a whiffed attempt, maybe I should just block," and then by the time I go through all that they're already all over me. Training mode doesn't work per se since it's different when I'm just expecting them to jump in on a repeated basis... I guess I just have to grind out a ton of matches until I can reclaim lost ground.

5B enrages me because it misses so many characters *rages* Half the time I use it they low profile under it and I get CH.

I think I might actually get SSF4 tonight after dinner. /wrist :P CHUN LI Yeah, you gotta check out the previews they're doing right now of the beta, it's awesome. It's like Halo 2 all over again... reminds me of Unreal Tournament kind of. They have some neat new things, like a jetpack, and the levels are more expansive and perilous because of it, and you can move around faster. You can sprint temporarily now too to get somewhere fast, like if you see people about to finish each other off and want to beat them to it. And there's some power ups you can start with (and choose) that you can use over and over but need to recharge. There's one that's like the Mario 3 statue suit that turns you into a statue where you can't move. It stops you from taking damage until your shields recharge, so if you just cleared a room and someone comes to grenade you or finish you off you can do that and not take damage until your shield comes back.
