Definitely stop pressing b+MP, I'm really not sure how or why you have that as a habit but it's the biggest immediate problem you need to solve. That move is pretty much just to let her get a beefier hit confirm off of certain hits, like j.lk (her only cross-up capable air normal)

You need to not press st.mp or cr.mp during footsies (use those buttons for pressure when you KNOW you have advantage), stick with st.mk and cr.mk (try to hit-confirm cr.mk into spiral arrow, especially if you're whiff punishing something). Press way way more st.mk btw, and move around more (including backwards), you're standing in one spot pressing the button sometimes like that ridiculous rear end bot in that video from earlier in the thread.

You need to actually use your V-Trigger cancel, poke with cr.hp and just cancel it. If you get a hit you can confirm into st.hp xx v-triggered spiral arrow, v-triggered cannon spike for 300+ damage, on block you're massively + so you can try mix-ups. Do a normal canceled into hooligan cross up dive kick for a baby mode mix-up that will probably hit 95% of people online. Confirm into cr.mp xx whatever. If they do block you're STILL + so Do More poo poo (staying active is a theme for good Cammy play)

Note that you CAN also poke and V-trigger cancel with st.mk and cr.mk but I wouldn't recommend it, you get so little advantage on hit that you only get a small follow-up (if any, depends on distance).

Please make sure you are strong at hit confirming into super. Until you are I would recommend spending your meter mostly on EX divekicks as often as you can.

Good luck!

So I've mostly got the TK instant air legs down, I do 236963 double-tap mk and the key for me was figuring out the button press needs to be after you've hit the minimum height -- it doesn't really matter so much which direction you are pressing as it does that you are above the minimum height.

However, watching replays, it seems like the pros do neutral jump legs a lot for in your face pressure. . Has anyone figured out how to TK that, if it's possible? Someone tweeted that you can do neutral legs with 236863 but I feel like you need a hitbox to go from 6 to 8 like that, but maybe I just need to git gud. Or do you just do 8346, really quickly? I've tried that a bit and the fastest I can do it only gives me 1-2 hits, while I can consistently get 3 from the UF TK motion. But maybe if I keep practicing.

E: unghhh I want to do that combo at 1:06 http://youtu.be/MCwU-cdaftQ

i am consistently amazed at how fast a playable match can turn into a stuttering poo poo fest

Can you still alt-tab to desynch the game?

Not sure why you are double tapping the mk, its gonna take whatever the first input is its not quite like doing a combo where you can be too early on the button press.

As for neutral legs, only real motion that works is either 8741236 or if you got pure speed 8236, although neutral legs isn't necessarily ideal because you want the forward motion to make sure you can get the bnb. That combo at 1:06 is something you would do if you are too far away as it does less damage than the normal BnB.

Who gave Daigo the nickname Beast?

Ag Bengip posted:

Not sure, but it's bad. He should just be Daigo Umehara IMO

He's been The Beast since before he was known in America, I'm pretty sure.

Can you find me a quote, because everywhere I look in JP (and in my memory) "The Beast" is seen as a purely western invention

"The Beast" is really a terrible nickname for him. "The Machine" would be a hell of a lot better because a good amount of his success stems from his uncanny ability to basically shut off his emotions and stay cool and relaxed. That, and he's really good at analyzing his opponents and thinking up counter strategies really fast.

On the flip side, you have "Murderface" Tokido which actually makes sense because well... he has a murder face.

Punch so strong it its behind!

The Machine is Poongko's nickname though.

Which also doesn't really make sense since he's a very emotional player.

What's funny is when I was thinking of someone who should be called the Beast, Poongko is the guy who came to mind as he's wild and crazy.

Basically Daigo and Poongko need to switch nicknames. Maybe it's like how M. Bison, Vega and Balrog shuffled names around when they came here. I like to think it's that.

I tried asking in the fighting thread and didn't get a response, so I'll try one more time in here instead.

So after a long time I'm looking to get a stick, I was looking at the TE2 and that seems to be sold out everywhere. Is the TES+ just as good, or is there a reason to hold out and hunt down a TE2? Or are there even better sticks that I'm not aware of?
