DoctaMario Posted August 20, 2022 Author Share Posted August 20, 2022 Just out of curiosity, what time zone is everyone in? I'm thinking about trying out Kazuki a bit tonight. I've done some labbing with Amakusa this week and am trying to find a secondary character that I like who's actually good. Quote Link to comment
Reticently Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Eastern. I don't know much about Kazuki, but his 2C seems like a super good anti air. Quote Link to comment

DoctaMario Posted August 21, 2022 Author Share Posted August 21, 2022 @Hecatomyyou're probably better off doing a BnB combo off a grab than issen. Issen does pathetic damage off grab and you can use the opponent's fear of getting hit with a raw one while extending the amount of damage you're doing and maximizing your rage explosion energy.

Hecatom Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Yeah, it seems that for some reason the game is running slower, while not necessarily making the inputs have more input lag 🤔 Weird. DoctaMario 1 Quote Link to comment

Hecatom Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 So, I have been trying to play with Evil Hibiki all this time, but I am not able to select her, maybe I am doing something wrong. Supposedly is pressing/holding square while selecting her, but is not working. Quote Link to comment

Reticently Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) So it took some internet digging to find, but this should be the complete final patch frame data: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B8KYrZs3WcTgx00vOMIGgTjZXmjf5VWx/view Mostly in Japanese, but with enough English/numpad notation to figure it out. I know there's a wiki out there with some of this info, but this seems to be more complete/updated. Edited August 22, 2022 by Reticently DoctaMario 1 Quote Link to comment

Reticently Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 On my lunch break today I decided I should learn Wan-fu. Spent 10 minutes in training to get the basics down, fired up story mode to putz around a bit, ran into Mina on the 3rd match. 20 minutes of trying to use Wan-fu against Mina and I decided it just wasn't going to work out, lol.

Yeah, it seems there wasn't much variety, and no Iroha, but there was some Shiki's. One thing I noticed is that they are not using all the mechanics in the game, like the parries or using a parry/special after a heavy recoil, there were a lot of times where they could have gone for it. The same for the combo jumps. Of course, is not like I do use them 😅 Edit Also, seeing a lot of Jubei's brings back some memories. My 2nd fg was samsho 2 on pc back on the 96, how my best friend got it, dunno, but we played it for hours. My mains on the game were Cham Cham, Genjuro and Jubei. Maybe I should try playing with them again. Edited August 23, 2022 by Hecatom Quote Link to comment

I think that maybe Mina is a bad matchup? TBH, I don't know, but I would assume that Wan Fu would have problems with her, since he is kind of slow. Quote Link to comment

Mina looks like a ridiculously bad match-up for him though. His get-in tools are nowhere near as good as her get-off-me tools, and then he's back at full screen without his weapon getting arrow chipped to death. I know that the computer cheats a lot reading inputs, but damn. Edited August 23, 2022 by Reticently Quote Link to comment

I think a lot of people haven't been playing the game for quite awhile so they're either just getting back into it or that's about where they stopped learning. I don't see a lot of recoil cancels which, for certain characters, is a major part of their game. 6 minutes ago, Mattatsu said: I may be okay for Saturday night.
