Adding to this, what do against people that just keep rushing me down? I always feel scared to counter since I feel like a lot of characters that do rush down (weavile, pika libre, pikachu) can just grab me out of it for more damage. Not to mention pikachu libres dumb-as-shit monkey flip, I have no idea what to do against that outside of attempting to hit it at startup, because otherwise it seems like it just flies right past my hits and grabs me anyways.

Is there a way to play Chandy not like a faggot? Can I be more aggressive and get in people's face?
>>
>>137245331
Yes but why would you? You're a zoning character, if they can't figure out how to get close there's no reason to stop punishing them for it. CQ is just as easy as getting into people's faces and figuring out which of your attacks are quickest/have enough range and recovery to catch them on wakeup. Then it's a matter of mixing it up with counters and grabs.

You do a good enough job corralling and forcing players in duel mode to get close and overheat is punishing as fuck already.

>An adjustment for Reshiram
RIP cool Braixen support
>>
Pikachu main here looking to switch to another main. I wanted to get into playing a zoner and out of all of them gardevior looked like the best fit for me. From watching and reading I gathered that gard has good damage and her projectiles cover a lot of the opponents actions if read properly but I also see that shes a little slow,has poor HP and poor defensive and average close range options.

What do I have to keep in mind picking her up and what are some recommended materials to study to play her well? I learn really fast watching match videos so recommending me someone to study would be greatly appreciated.

You mean wild charge? The move that ends in stone cold stunner? That's a counter-attack, it's unsafe on block and you can grab Libre out of it.

Cool, now fix fennekin
>>
>>137255861
there's nothing wrong with fennekin
>>
My favorite pokemon on the roster is Suicune (because I like water pokemon), but I can't overcome the dirty feeling of playing zoning characters. My games are so easy because I am destroying everyone from far away. I just feel cheap and skill-less, I don't deserve the wins I am getting. It doesn't really seem that fun either.

Should I just get over it and keep playing? Will it get more fun when people get better and realize how to move through my projectiles?
>>
>>137255934
Zoners will always have an advantage online in this game and there's nothing you can do to prevent that on either side of the matchup. Delay netcode and high-damage projectiles do not mix.
>>
>>137255934
Just wait for Greninja DLC

>>137256230
Fennekin's not so bad excepting when he's being used by Chandelure

I can deal with having a "burst" support that avoids damage, but you shouldn't be able to combo out of it.

You cannot be blocking but time your synergy when the explosion is at its peak. There is a slight cool down period where the opponent is still in the support animation.

That's probably what they're changing with Resh. The ability to combo into or off it.

He does obnoxiously high damage and as a Braixen I can do a fully charged X into his assist for a flat 200 damage with essentially two buttons. It also doesn't break duel phase so you can follow it up with fireblast or a fire whirl depending on how close they are.
>>
>>137258168
>Punishing with a Synergy Burst
What's the point? Absolutely worthless. Unless you meant Burst Attack but not every character can do that

>>137258263
You know what I mean. And even then projectiles work too just bait them out.

I could imagine a suicune baiting out with a delayed jump back blizzard. Ouch.

>>137258263
He meant burst attack.

>>137258427
Nobody uses Fennekin against Suicune at a distance where you can do that.
>>
>>137258552
>tfw you never fought a zoner who literally panics and calls fennekin as soon as any opponent closes the distance

Be glad. But the good suicunes are the ones who know how to mix it up and get close when they got to so thats why people would feel pressured to call the little fucker out.

WHAT IS THE ZONIEST ZONER of all zoners that can zone out other zoners? I'm fucking sick of chandelures and braixens just spamming shit then using fennekin to reset. Playing an all-rounder character (lucario, my main) against these fags is an up-hill battle always.

I want a secondary that can say "Ok, you want to play zone wars? Let's play zone wars" and just fucking spam beams and projectiles and do it better than the other fag. Is there a character that can do that? Then I can just avoid the chore of trying to get in against a zoner and just play long range and win that way. I don't care about other match ups because I will only use the zoner against other zoners, otherwise I use lucario.

Wevile is what I probably lose to most convincingly while zard is the one I lose to the most often. I beat libres but a good one will mop me since they can duel phase way better than pika and pika is not a zoner so you can keep libre out in field mode too long. I can't even reversal since libre's best meaty KD option (net grab) beats my reversal. Mewtwo in general is a all rounder like pikachu that Gives more damage,Can take more damage,has more mixups,and can zone better too at the cost of some speed and synergy build speed.

I'm changing mains but this is me at the moment.

He specializes in punishing and critical hits. Stone Edge, Sand Tomb and Dragon Rush have followup attacks and animations if you manage to play the attack triangle properly. He also gets those followup attacks for free while Burst Mode. No Crit required.

The rest is straight forward enough.
>>
Is mewtwo (not shadow) seen as a "dirty" character? I haven't unlocked him yet and he is my favorite character on the roster, might be my main, but he seems very good. Almost too good.

What makes him pretty good? From what I've seen, the reason he's good is because he is strong in every situation. He always seems to have options, which other characters don't have. Blaziken or Machamp are boned at long range in field phase but Mewtwo is good both at long range and close range.
>>
>>137263184
>What makes him pretty good?
Basically that. He's got great ranged game, some neat movement tricks from Teleport and a generally totally competent close range game too. He's basically never at a disadvantage. Also a super strong Burst Mode/Burst Attack that easily ranks as the best or second best in the game.
>>
>>137263184
His weakness is that he doesn't get Burst every round. Against blaziken or other fast chargers ( i think pikachu ), you will struggle because he gets 1 burst per round and you only get 1 in an entire set usually
>>
>>137263184
His only weakness is that you have to learn to deal with burst mode without having your own until you reach the final round. It can be pretty rough sometimes.

if you can beat a decent chandelure as charizard you deserve a pat on the back every day for the rest of your life

there's no way to approach from the ground since you're so slow, thus you get forced into the air. at this point chandelure can just happily use any anti-airs he has and they'll almost definitely hit you

if you manage to get to him you now have to deal with overheat and smog, but your only reliable way to do that is charged air x, and so he can once again just use anti-air with no worries

if that wasn't bad enough, charizard is so tall that most anti-airs will hit him on the ground and lead into a full combo

charizard's best move against normal zoners is fire punch but obviously that isn't going to work here. even if you can manage to hit him with something you're going to need to get to him and hit him again 3 to 5 more times

chandelure is the only character i have a below 50% winrate against, and i had no problems dealing with him using other characters, so yeah, it's probably my character

What also makes him really good that the other anons didn't touch on is his mixup and feint options. You can't really do much but guess when mewtwo get the ball rolling. He can even feint at a distance or up close. Man does he get me salty you can't really stay solid vs a mewtwo he WILL open you up eventually.

I can only hope, but I'm not optimistic

Chandelure is terrible against S.Mewtwo and not amazing against some characters, so they might leave him alone or not nerf him enough

I think Hex and Overheat will be looked at. Beyond that we can't know. Maybe they'll gimp her melee reach so she can't knock you back away so fucking easily from so far.
>>
>>137266640
Tbhh the only thing I find that is a issue with chandy is overheat. Now thats a BS move and depending on the assist it has no faults.

I fought a B3 chady that used that stupid assist and did overheat again. I punished the first one but the second one got me. I hate armored attack moves since you can't meaty grab them because they refuse to learn the wakeup game and just spam overheat. Its a very beatable character but is very fraudulent and will always steal games in a ranked setting. 2 rounds is not enough time to figure out if a faggot will panic overheat twice in a row. I feel your pain even though you play firepunchzard.

fire punch isn't even that good, other charizards will spam it at me all the time, if they don't go into flying stance you can critical grab them and if they do you can usually get out an attack faster than they can or just counter

plus fire punch will lose to a charged counter 100% of the time unless they hit you the moment you let it go

sometimes the game decides to be retarded and pushes them back so they can't be punished but it's not common

so what did the patch fix?
>>
>>137269691
the patch is already out?>>137269691
>>
>>137269521
There is no tell for going into flying stance so if I try to grab I can risk eating a critical flare blitz(?). Fire punch is safe on block and requires a read counter which zard can mixup with his pierce moves and seismic toss. Its not a huge problem in good online connections and in extended sets but those moves net you LOTS of mileage for being predictable ad you can't punish them as hard as you think.

The safest thing to punish fire punch is a armored reversal in duel mode. In field you can only counter no punish.
>>
>>137269919
Let me rephrase

You can't react to the flying stance tell in time to avoid eating a critical flare blitz.
>>
>>137269538

Everybody needs to stop what they're doing and play this 10 times a day. It's simple:

Block correctly 5 times. Their's high block and low block. Overheads are 20 frames. This should be easy

http://www.teyah.net/milliablocker.html
>>
>>137269919
You can usually tell based on if the charizard is terrible. There's pretty much no reason not to go into flying stance. If you don't go into flying stance it's punishable on block. If a charizard isn't going into flying stance he probably doesn't know how or made an error.
>>
>>137270521
Good shit. Thanks dude. I hate how there is no playback so I can't test this shit out its driving me nuts. I thought firepunch was safe all of the time and I just had to react with a 100+ damage risk.
>>
>>137269919
Block -> Anti Air (8Y) maybe?
>>
>>137270376
Can you learn better reaction times from this because my reaction time is like 300-375ms and I can barely react to this since its just random. I have to look for patterns in real matches to avoid overheads and other tricky shit. Its why I was horrible at anime fighters and setplay games and I can do well in SFV (still kinda shit).

Really think it's due to lack of match up knowledge, I've ran into a couple of really great blazikens and chomps that just fuck me up. because of the dearth of good aggressive players compared to the overwhelming number of people just spamming y/a with zoners in E/D/C ranks I have a lot more practice against zoners

Gardevoir is the zoniest character in the game. And yes, she outzone Braixen and Chandy.

>>137278184

>Implying it's not true
>>
Look, I could care less about taking a L for disconnecting, I just don't want to waste my time fighting a suicune that's going to spam blizzard while the lag is so bad that I can't even block on reaction.

Of course, that's also why I don't play ranked anymore, because instead of good players rising to the higher ranks it's nothing but laggy zoners.
>>
>>137286080
i fought a sceptile three times over the course of 30 minutes, he disconnected every time he lost

i only met him once prior to this, a few days before, and he also disconnected at that time

i never disconnected from him until our fifth encounter where he barely managed to beat me by catching me in a burst attack
>>
>>137285478
I mean he's literally the only character I learned and came natural to me. If I had a choice I would play Blaziken but he's so sad vs anyone who has a projectile.

Also I have no clue on how to do the infinite and have no intention of doing so.
>>
>Keep getting matched against the same machamp

For the first time I ever, I didn't feel good over winning. It felt dirty, and wrong.

By the 4th rematch I could tell he had resigned to his fate. He wasn't throwing the match completely but I could tell he was trying different ways to figure out how to best me. He could have disconnected but he stuck through it like a champ and took the rank down.

I'm taking a break right now because I'm both depressed and I don't want to rematch against him anytime soon.

That's nice pal. Still doesn't justify your disconnect, just shows that you weren't the bigger man.

>>
>>137286625
if you let this shit slide it reinforces the idea that it's okay to do, it has nothing to do with being the bigger man

if you were a waiter at a restaurant, and some asshole didn't tip you, then later he delivered a pizza to your house, would you tip him?

don't reinforce bad behavior by ignoring it, return it to them

But I would tip him. be the bigger man, turn the other cheek. if your enemy is hungry, give him food. If he is thirsty, give him drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals upon their head.

That is how people change, and for the better. All you do is guarantee that he won't tip you next time either.

Mid air A is vunerable all the way down and some few frames after pikachu lands
Iron tail (2A) raw is punshable
X,Y XX,Y XXX,Y is safe and JF pushes you way back and is also safe.
8A is extremely unsafe and you can get a critical grab even after pikachu lands
4A is Unsafe at close range if the tail doesn't hit you
X X,X and 2X is safe I think
8Y 8X is safe

Dear Pokken devs,

If you're going to design this game around "attacks beat grabs beat counters beat attacks", you can't then change your mind and give a character an attack that ignores hitstun like a counter would, but unlike counters is also completely grab-immune.

Especially not when it does A HUNDRED AND EIGHTY FUCKING DAMAGE.

Yeah.

I mean, I'd understand if it dealt like 100 damage or something, but 180 for an almost completely invincible close-range move? On the ZONING character? There are burst attacks that deal less damage than that! And those require your entire Synergy Bar!

At least it's mad punishable on block/whiff. And it self-debuffs. So I guess there's that.

Disclaimer: I'm basically a scrub at this game still, and I mostly play irl rather than online (I'm fortunate enough to live in an area with an active high level FGC, so a lot of what I have to say is informed by other games), we're all still trying to figure this game out.

I main Blaziken and I think the character is definitely geared around pressuring the opponent and capitalizing on mistakes, rather than mixups. Blaziken has better frames than other guys with comparable damage potential (fairly fast, very safe BnB combo starters, multiple frame traps, etc. it's particularly worth noting that while lots of guys have a frame 9 2Y, Blaziken's cancels into 6A, 6[A], and all the stuff you get out of those). Also unlike most other guys Blaziken can keep attacking and applying pressure despite the "attack triangle" because of how risky it is to CA against him. You can cancel into 6[A][X] from a lot of your pokes, and connecting J[A] is 228 damage no wall, assuming you don't choke the easiest followup (J[A] G Y 8[A]).

Speaking of walls, Blaziken is both really good at putting people on them and getting damage out of them. I'm sure you've noticed, but 6[A][X] launches guys roughly 50 miles, and at a very forgiving trajectory for following up (enough time to dash or jump and still land 30+ frame followups). I've found that when I initiate duel phase the opponent is in wall range more often than they aren't. Your most braindead wall BnB (YYY 6[A][X] 8A does 251. If you connect a strong (say, after a blocked 8X or [A], which are +4, bringing your strong to parity with most guys' weaks) you get X 6[A][X], 4[A] for 278. Raw super is 242, for reference.

The most mixup-y things you're doing are mostly movement related, approaching from the ground or air, things like that. On a blocked J[A] you can air dash and throw another one without landing, go for JY which combos into everything you get from YYY if spaced correctly, or just land (it's +10 LOL)

>>137322268
Pic related might help. For what it's worth I think Blaziken is simpler than a lot of characters. You don't have to think about whether you want to be close or far (you want to be close), you don't have to do RPD odds as much as other characters for reasons already stated, and you only have a few real choices for followups for everything. Because of scaling all the combos you actually want to do are like 5 inputs maybe, and because of forgiving (some might say...casual) game mechanics you don't even have to worry as much as you think about managing the recoil damage. Rage + the fact that you can't actually kill yourself with recoil = lots of hype wins at 1hp :)

Number pads go in 8 directions. Clocks go in either 12 or 60.

Square brackets mean "hold this input". So 6[A][X] means "forward, then hold A, then hold X".

That kind of notation actually starts to get pretty mandatory for anime fighters, where the inputs can get complex beyond all reason. For instance, you'll sometimes see inverted square brackets, which mean "release this input" (i.e. "]X["), because the move in question doesn't complete until you release the button.

I think it's decent yeah, better than grabbing if you predict a block usually. A lot of the time using 8X vs [A] it depends how sure you are that they'll block; you have to pay the life for [A], but it's better than 8X if it hits ([A] 2XX 6[A] is 182 plus the debuff it puts on them). Also if the opponent doesn't know the matchup [A] is better than normal (in my experience anyway, your mileage may vary of course), because the move is visually deceptive. A lot of people intuitively think it's unsafe.

>>137326389
The notation isn't unique to Tekken, >>137326839 has it right. I am using the WiiU buttons just because that's what I've seen people doing here and elsewhere for this game.

Soul Calibur, MK, anime fighters as someone else mentioned, MvC etc. I know of more people who use it than don't, honestly.

>I have never seen Tekken's notation used for Street Fighter.

Most of the time, they do say, "cr.mk," or "s.lp," or whatever, but I swear I've heard commentators use Tekken notation at least one time before. It's very rare but it happens occasionally.

Smash has its own notation, understandably, and yes, it does have an odd relationship with the rest of the FGC. _We often have our own names for stuff like "recovery frames," for better or worse.

Was it a Tekken commentator commentating Street Fighter x Tekken?

No, I think it might've been a recent SFV match or even SFIV.

I could be wrong though, but I'm pretty sure I've heard it in regards to SF by SF players or commentators at some point.

well it's just a meme. I have a friend in France who mains Gard and is climbing towards B1. I think most characters have the potential to be tournament competitive, but right now it is pretty obvious that Mewtwo, Sceptile, Chandy, and Gengar are still slightly stronger than the rest of the cast
>>
>>137331102
She's not bad, but she's the furthest thing from the best. She's good against other zoners outside of the occasional good suicune, sure, but basically you -have- to keep them out, or you lose. A machamp getting in once can mean the end of your game. She's definitely the best character to describe as "technical", even if other people disagree. If you want a zoner that can keep people out and have good melee game, then go with suicune. If you want something that can get in and do heavy damage, then go with garchomp. He's got close to machamps damage with half the effort and two different ways to get in in field phase and duel phase.
Just enjoy your gary.

Braixen definitely, but suicune's melee is a lot better in field phase and duel phase in my opinion. You're saying suicune's too slow but garde isn't exactly the fastest thing either. I get wake up grabbed while I'm mashing attack sometimes with garde.
>>
>>137332125
Gard has a great barrier ability that is great in oki and her uppercut has really good coverage. Suicune doesn't really have that reach. Not having reach in melee is a huge disadvantage.

His light attack is pretty good. His upclose field phase is pretty shit though.

Let me know if any of you guys come across me on friendlies. Still trying to git gud, tips much appreciated.

So what exactly determines what causes a phase shift?
In field with Garchomp, there are two combos that can be useful:
>X, Back Y, YYYY
This will always go to Field. Does 183 damage.
>X, Back Y, Y
This will not go to Field. Does 188 damage.

Also where the fuck do you guys go to find combos?
>>
>>137332559
Apparently, there's a hidden counter in the game that certain moves increase. When that counter hits a certain amount (12, if I recall correctly), it will trigger a phase shift.
>>
>>137332686
>Bob Kaufman
I'm so happy to be Jake "Virt" Kaufman's brother. He's one of my favorite american composers.
>>
>>137332686
Weird how it's independent of damage. But I guess that makes sense how it's an attack property - otherwise stuff like Chomp's field forward Y wouldn't be useful.
I tested it with EQ, Back Y, Back Y and that forces to field while doing less damage than EQ, Forward Y, Forward Y.
Also in that first comment, I meant X, Forward Y, Y.
>>
>>137332559
I think we mostly just make up our own combos or watch our opponent beat it into us.

At least that's what I do. I've only seen one combo chart for my character. It's thorough, but you can basically figure all of it out in the sample combos they gave

GGs Mallet. It looked like you were doing better against Psystrike than a lot of other people. Almost everyone tries to challenge it in some way or another, but this is the one move you just want to block and punish afterward, which you were doing more often than I've seen anyone else do. On top of that, I so rarely see any Lucario player use projectiles, so it was good to see what I could do about them which was almost nothing. Thank you for the matches, they were very fun

Rotom/Togekiss
Rotom Keeps jump-happy mofos in check, & if they get hit, they get slowed down.
Togekisss heals you a bit, which is always a bonus, but that speed buff can scare most players & helps a bit dodging spamtastic mofos.
Machamp already has the power & hp, control the speed of the battle & it's all yours.

I can't play online because of College internet so I've just been doing sp to be satiated.

>>137338147
Sand Tomb, Stone Edge and Dragon Rush all get followup hits when you crit.
>>
>>137338225
THAT'S why Sand Tomb """randomly""" has extra animatons. Oh fucking baby, Victini seems like a good deal of fun. Is that practice mode combo practical in a match? Cuz if Victini is something I'll be using all the fucking time anyways, seems like something I need to have down. I know my execution's shit since I still fuck up on the timing for the jump y in that one.
>>
>>137338353
the best part of crits on chomp isn't even the extra damage
with victini, guaranteed crits mean guaranteed combos on crit. That means if your opponent could've guarded sand tomb, countered stone edge (which would activate it but not trigger the double hit) or clashed an attack with dragon rush, your crit means that instead you'll get the full bonus for all of your options every time, which effectively means that your opponent now has a 2/3 chance of playing the wrong RPS instead of just 1. And that's without factoring reads and wakeup advantage, which swings things even further in your favor
victini is the only support any chomp player should use. any other choice shows a complete lack of understanding how he plays
>>
>>137339082
Sand tomb is basically free damage against computers (not like it matters, really). I can't imagine how much faster Victini would make the slog of doing the "ladders".

I really want to play this game against other people now. This is making it sound so damn fun.

This is stupid and profoundly narrowminded. Victini is a slow charge and as a result, almost totally fucking pointless. Synergy Focused Nia + Fast Charge Supports like Cubone is devastating. Garchomp's burst mode is high tier. Victini demands that you use a support cheer, and that's just no good if you ask me.
>>
so I decided to dick around in the lab a little and I found all the attacks that are tanked by Garchomp's high stance
not sure how useful this'll be but maybe it'll help someone
I feel like I've seen zero people use the high stance, maybe for good reason, but I think the superarmor might eventually find its way into higher level play

Smash has literally nothing to do with it. Some people pick characters based purely on idiocy like "LOL IT'S A LUCHADORE PIKACHU LOL"

Those characters then become the faggot character for the remainder of the gamer's lifespan. Because they inherently attract people with shithead attitudes who want to play the most obnoxious or "hated" character just to piss people off. Luchachu isn't that fun or particularly strong, but she's almost 30% of the battles I face online. It's nightmarish. Just a bunch of annoying memelords.

He isn't great period unless you fight offline with a wired controller.

>spammable range attacks

You can dash under thunder and its HEAVILY punishable. His projectiles have low durability and only really weak or champs projectiles loses to them. Almost every character can with a low stance can nullify pikachus ground projectiles. They are bad and only work on bad machop players. They do give great chip damage however thats the only reason you should be using them.

>fast regular attacks

His Y is fast but everything else is average speed. JF 6Y is great but I don't think ANY NA player can play pika and do those consistently. Its entirely possible but if you can consistently get the muscle memory for a JF why play pokken lol? You'd make more sense if you said pika is too safe only iron tail,electro ball and thunder is unsafe. Its great that his heavy combo stater is relatively safe but it comes out pretty slow especially when grey frames are involved.

>nearly as much health as charizard

Its kinda high but its the same as libre. 600 is the average so 570 is slightly below. Kinda like 950 in the SF series.

>Easy combos

Now this I cannot agree with you more on. Only a few combos require JF (JF 6Y is only 3 on the phase shift counter so you can extend you combos even more JF Y,X allows for 2Y followups so you can get a little more.) Good thing for opponents that even if pika hits with a crit he will never get more than 170 outside of synergy. Most other pokemon can get that in one move.

>several counters

Only has his CA and armored reversals. Kinda like libre with CA and stunner. It gets annoying though but like I said its not really much damage and CA adds to the phase shift counter so crumple followups are weak.

>command grab

This is to offset that pikachu has no pierce moves outside of fully charged CA and Synergy(no damage) and burst. The command grab is also VERY slow and is low damage outside of walls.

>Synergy

This is why IMO pikachu wins.
>>
>>137381276
well you can probably annoy the crap out of him with your homing thunder pillar thing

i believe most of his moves that break counter glow red so keep an eye out for that

i'd recommend wall jumping a lot (or just jumping in general) and going for divekicks, blocking if it doesn't work. if he tries to counter you can just command grab. you can also just throw out fast moves with long reach like 2X

if he's being super aggressive it might be smart to throw out blind 2As, it's probably fast enough that he won't be able to react with a counter breaker
>>
>>137381834
I won't stop complaining until she becomes far less common in online mode. I fight her more than any other character by far. It's insanely stupid. My Ranked Sessions look something like this:

>Libre
>Libre
>Braixen
>Lucario
>Libre
>Chandelure
>Lucario
>Machamp
>Libre

>>137382014
Firmly mid-tier. She's not even a braindead character that idiots play without thinking that get results like some of the spammier zoners. People are choosing her because they have an attention whoring memelord mindset
>>
>>137382030
Synergy refills fast as fuck and makes his projectiles strong and gives him JF properties for ALL JF moves in duel mode making combos more damaging without relying on 1 frame inputs. You can ignore weak attacks and use his speed to get in and mix it up. Also his busts punishes ANYTHING which makes anything but running a risk. Thats it really its all pikachu has and even if his burst gave 30-50 more damage he could be broken as fuck. After C5 pikachu should be free wins. You'd have to make mistakes all match to get bodied by pikachu especially by projectiles. I feel like pikachu players can still call out other players on their shit. Pikachu is probably the pokemon you need the least MU knowledge to fight (uhh thunder strikes twice in synergy and all his blue fist moves are safe).
>>

You may not like her, but others do. Surprising, I'm sure.

Get over it.
>>
>>137382901
All libres are D shitters and streamers who stopped playing when the game is not flavor of the week anymore. I'll tell you this. A good libre is a fucking nightmare and you do not under any circumstances want to fight them please just keep fighting braixen and chandy.

A good libre will mix it up in duel mode and fuck you to death with the net grab and when you least expect it combo into stunner. Net grab like submission gives ZERO YES ZERO field change points with no charge. With charge it gives a little less than submission from a pokemon that moves 5x as fast as machamp buffs and auto phase changes. Libre is a nightmare to fight but they are rare in the higher ranks.
>>
>>137383365
i'm a broken record about it but it's essentially impossible for my character to beat chandelure, i would take anything over it

i've seen good libres but it's never too overwhelming, she's scary when charged but her damage isn't that great

>still wanting Hawlucha when Pika Libre does what it can and more
Everything Libre does could have been given to Hawlucha pretty much. Just change lightning stuff into "energy" and "wind"
>>
>>137383774
Who do you play? Zard? If you do main him zard IMO has a harder time vs libre than chandy well a good good libre to be specific. With that much mobility, Discharge covering the ground and air and all of those self buffs once libre gets a lead it will be a hassle to comeback. Especially when charged she hits like a power character.
>>
>>137384139
Disliking a character because others like her doesn't make sense. You're an idiot. Also
>thinking Hawlucha still suits the game when we already have Machamp, Blaziken and an Electric Grappler.
I bet you want the Hitmons in too.
>>
>>137384415
yes, zard. i'll admit that her discharge is annoying but she generally comes straight to me and that's exactly what charizard wants. charizard hates being at midrange or long range because most of his options from there are unsafe and he's bad at approaching from the ground so he becomes predictable

chandelure not only stays away but is impossible to approach from the ground with zard's low speed and the removed ability to CADC or fire punch

once libre gets in close it's just about reading her like you would with regular opponents, the command grab is annoying but fire punch comes out too fast to catch it on reaction in close quarters so zard can often get a free combo if she's hitting his shield. plus charizard can stay in the air for a pretty long time and swoop around with dive kicks, which libre usually hates, her close range anti air is lacking
>>

>>
>>137385396
Most good libres will look for a throw punish for field change since that gives her the longest duration for enhanced mode. I agree with what you say in neutral but unlike pikachu and some other pokemon she has the damage to play its slow vs zard. If libre like I said phase shifts in enhanced mode from a grab from field its takes one knockdown for you to lose the match. Meaty grab will beat ALL of zards options and will crit on firepunch if you do it on wakeup she can fient the distance too since electroweb has massive range. If she baits you to attacking you can eat a 186 or a 200+ damage (with attack up) stunner for the phase shift, additional buffs,duration on enhanced timer. Just like you can bully with firepunch libre can do so with wild charge and it will always phase shift for the added damage and buffs.

Seriously you should head into free training and mess around with her, You will see how ridiculous she gets. She has her weaknesses but that momentum,speed and damage is so fucking scary. Talking about her this much makes me want to pick her up because shes so good but I hate her with a passion.

>>137386596
oh i know, libre was my main in the first few days of the game

playing it slow against charizard is difficult for non-zoners due to flamethrower. it has deceptively long range and even if you block it will deal 40 chip damage plus a lot of shield damage. his 2X also has good range and can combo into seismic toss or fire punch depending on distance. with both of these combined libre is pressured to jump a lot, and in this situation it's hard to play it safe

wild charge is also very scary if done blind against charizard, because if blocked you can critically grab it after it ends, and a critical grab from charizard will do around 200 damage. in addition, a decent amount of charizard's moves lift him off the ground, so wild charge will just knock him away rather than doing the stunner if used against them

Maybe if you get the libre scared to press buttons which they never stop doing most will quick attack,jump attack(which beats most of zards options if he's also not jumping) or wild which only if you get them desperate. Most libres I fight would rather wild charge than block and Like you said if you read it for that siesmic toss its over. But the point is libre has options and never has to eat a flamethrower. Even meaty unless its max range. 2X is a problem and I feel like thats the answer to beat libre. Even though its slow if countered you can react grab and if its block you can pressure with firepunch to fly.

Wild charge missing the stunner is a great point since most of zards pressure lifts him off the ground. This will net many games if the libre doesn't have that in mind. It makes more sense to me why you would fight one. But I feel like these options get weaker as the set lasts.

like i said you don't need to read wild charge, you can grab it after they faceplant and it'll still be critical. quick attack actually does beat flamethrower but i rarely see any libres use it since (i'm pretty sure) it loses to fire punch. flamethrower actually has a longer range than her normal counter, so it's not possible to punish with it unless you're pretty close. if she starts jumping over it for a divekick or whatever charizard can answer with fire punch since she can't stay in the air very long

and yeah, libre is really scary if she gets momentum, but charizard can do all sorts of annoying things to keep her guessing, which leads to her enhancements running out. i've actually won a few libre fights by timeout because i just play keepaway for so long

I already have Tekken and I would not say either of those games are similar to Pokken. The thing that interests me is the contrast between field mode and duel mode, as well as the simplicity of the game because I am pretty bad at fighting games ngl.

There's a DBZ game that does Field and then Duel.

>>137392209
i don't blame them, sceptile seems pretty bad against zoners with his lack of a dive kick and poor aerial options in field phase
>>
>>137392506
I don't know anything about DBZ, really it looks like this game is specifically what I want, but it just seems a bit too expensive considering the lack of content even when I can afford it.
>>
>>137391903
>if she starts jumping over it for a divekick or whatever charizard can answer with fire punch since she can't stay in the air very long

Good write up but this is a crucial error. Libre can double jump with R and follow that up with a wall jump or just go right into another air jump while enhanced and then follow it up making firepunch easy to bait.
>>
>>137393032
well if it helps convince you there's a confirmed patch for early april

i don't believe we know if it will contain balance changes but we do know it will fix an infinite blockstring one character has and adjust a particular controversial support in some way

so clearly they still care about the game to some extent, DLC is possible although not super likely
>>
>>137393495
Yeah alright, thanks. I am definitely liking the look of it, as I said I am not great with fighting games and I like how this game has a bigger focus on what moves you use rather than what moves you are capable of using with overly complex inputs.
>>
>>137393417
the jump doesn't keep her in the air very long, probably less than a second. if you see her jump it's just a matter of reacting to when she does the dive kick, it will either be immediately or after her air jump(s)

if she wall jumps she can sometimes get behind him, but zard can also just go for a regular counter which hits above him and on both sides. in this situation the command grab can be scary, but you can CADC backwards and start the game over again, or just fly to freedom if you're cornered

A lot of E ranked players. Pretty much every Lucario has been awful. Spamming Chandelures that lose their mind once you close in.

ranks don't really mean anything, if you disconnect during a rank up or rank down it doesn't give you an X

i'm B rank and i've fought plenty of terrible players with 40% winrates who just disconnect all the time

games played is more important, win rate has some relevance but i've seen really good players with 50% win rates

Best support for Libre?
>>
>>137400756
Mismagius/Ninetales.
If you can knock em down in duel phase or push em against the wall, throw Ninetales on top of them and you're pretty much guaranteed a free Electroweb.
>>
>>137400756
I really like ninetales/mismagius. I run the special cheer, and use mismagius for the first round.she goes through projectiles so she's nice for getting an opening on zoners. If you win, you get a really large synergy boost chunk, which is great for pika, and if you love you get access to ninetales who is great for straight up damage. This way you can burst whenever you're full and know you'll still have synergy at the beginning of the next round.
>>
>>137401695
>>137401172
Does Victini/Dragonite do well with her as well?
>>
>>137403870
Yeah, but you're practically guaranteed to not have a support for the first round.
>>
>>137335585
i run frogidier, it acts as a psuedo-projectile stopper since it forces the opponent to block or get hit when they throw out projectiles. Also if you just throw out frogidier and then use submission, it'll grab them if they block frogidier's first wave and keep up their block. However even if the attack you back frogidier's second wave will hit them which will cover you. Also Eevee for a small heal and atack up if you ever wanted to use it.
>>
What does everyone in this dead general think about Pachrisu? I got a few strings of chandelures and braixens, so I decided to give it a shot. Seems like whenever I put it down they don't know what to do and I can get in pretty easy, but maybe this isn't as useful as I think it is.
>>
>>137406056
Worse Fennekin.
>>
>>137406470

Worse fennekin? Fennekin ain't too useful if I'm trying to get in, what do you mean?
>>
>>137406056
because whimsicott is just a better pachrisu. it heals you, charges faster and all the projectiles that pachrisu stops that whisicott doesn't are easy to dogde anyways. Also at least whisicott heals pachirisu is useless versus non-zoners, and magikarp isn't so great versus non-zoners compared since grabs or field-changing moves render it useless.
>>
>>137408002
ignore that compared at the end
>>
>>137400756
Jirachi, considering you can burst twice per round, you might as well stack the damages/synergy buff for a near 300 damages burst attack.
>>
>>137382030
>Good thing for opponents that even if pika hits with a crit he will never get more than 170 outside of synergy
At 0 Atk he has non-wall combos up to at least 218 damage, wall combos up to about 280. At least that people have labbed so far. He has a pretty complex combo game with his best combos actually requiring manually timed juggling, so I'm expecting higher ones still to be found, and you can get more out of reset setups. But point being anyone only getting 170 out of Pikachu's combos is just doing beginner stuff. He doesn't have the most damaging combos but he's not exactly on the weak end, either.

Also EWGF 6Y is really not hard at all if you're been playing the character for more than a few days. I had to relearn it when I switched to the Pokken controller a week ago but am back at like 90% consistency now.
>>
>tfw considering picking up braixen

Any good combos for her?
>>
>>137408959
8X X all day, every day.
>>
Why does machamp have nothing to get in versus zoners in the duel phase? It's a big uphill battle of trying to get past al sorts of projectiles and then if you get close they use fenniken or overheat or something, which either pushes you back or is a 50/50 to reset everything. It also doesn't help that every zoner has something that can break through counter attacks.
>>
>>137408002

Alright thats a better answer there. Is there a list of moves whimsicott takes care of/doesnt? Generally Pachirisu just let me go to town as long as the enemy didn't use a beam like move, is Whimsicott similar?
>>
>>137408929
care to show these combos?
>>
>>137410558
no idea of the exact moves, but i think pachrisu blocks very little of what whisicott doesn't, i think maybe stuff like pikachu thunder overhead projectiles are blocked by pachrisu but not whisicott but i'm not to sure. But yeah neither blicks beam moves so you'll have to play around those.

I found these combos but they are WAY too tight and like you said require multiple JFs and variable juggle damage. I can JF all the time offline and I practice it because I can do it in tekken too but its not really feasable in these shitty wifi connections.

http://www.gameanyone.com/video/1516932 is the combo video
>>
>>137410943
jY > 6Y (EWGF) > 2X > 2X > 2A = 218 dmg, works on every character. Requires timing. There are easier ones for around 208 like jX > charged 5Y > 5YX (EWGF) > 8A, which also works on every character.

Wall combos aren't as labbed out but there's a lot of good stuff you can do that's easy to execute, e.g. jY > charged 5Y > 6Y (EWGF) > 2A for 259 dmg. You can get more out of resets though, especially as Pikachu has ways to make people fall out of his hits at the wall so he gets most the damage but doesn't use phase points up.
>>
>>137412382
chandelure and gardevoir have projectiles that you can't CADC

don't know about suicune
>>
>>137410471
Being good at CADC is pretty much essential for Machamp.

Also a well timed forward X can get you right across the screen.
>>
>>137412910
this, also braxien's projectiles are fast enough to beat CADC in many situations.

Question for Lucario mains, how the fuck do you combo with this guy? Hell, how do you play with him in general? He seems so predictable, but I really like the guy.
>>
>>137413640
No really a main but I'm learning him. All I can tell ya is you basically combo off your launcher (X) that's basically it.

In field phase I'm still now sure what you do. I always just do run up grab or run up Counter Attack and usually works for me. Or I'll try Midair X and start off that combo Or just Bone rush. Otherwise I still don't know how to field phase with him as I'm actually a S Mewtwo main but picked Lucario up because he's pretty easy to pickup.
