Random blanka notes - Piano electricity only takes 4 button presses instead of the usual 5. So you can go like cr.lp(mp lp mp) and get electricity to come out. - whiff lp roll into throw still works like you remember it from back in the day. - already hearing complaints about laggy blankas so that owns. Also did up some vids for Blanka: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mbcfB6lxz0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1l44VT9HuB8

It's not. Light ball is the only safe-ish one due to pushback and even then, moves like YZeku slide, dic scissor kick and mmmmmost supers will reach it. The trick is to apply pressure with electricity and then work from the frametrap. crmk xx elec, stlp xx light ball is an obvious safe pressure string but it's got gaps and is only safe in theory. Best option is to confirm from the jab, mix up your options with things like command grab, EX electricity or nothing at all, or just use it more when you get VT2 since then ball becomes properly safe He's really fun but has mmmmmaybe the worst buttons in the game which is saying something given how loving awful most buttons are. His crmp is great but that's honestly it.

Goodpart posted:It still kinda is. On the upside his command grab is scary and the threat of it gets people twitching. On the downside there's no reason that I can see to ever use any of his ball moves other than the LP horizontal ball and EX up ball. Honestly I've had really good success just using electricity as a constant pressure tool and jumping around like an idiot The worst part is that with all the changes characters in V this was the perfect chance to finally fix Blanka even if it was just finally getting charge motions loving out of his command list, but instead he got the Alex treatment of characters really needing some design revamps getting ported straight while Vegas now a stance character because reasons.

Zand posted:??charge motions make sense for blanka and allow him to have instant activation moves like blanka balls be balanced properly around the charge input requirement Thats be buyable if Blanka balls havent been poo poo except cancel fodder in literally every incarnation except CvS2 where he had the protection of roll canceling. The fact of the matter is Blanka is a positioning and mobility based scrapper with the half of his kit that works except the other half of it forces him to stop moving to charge to do damage most of the cast to get for free and the tools he has for positioning mid-charge grossly inferior for both positioning and attacking compared to Blankas closest counterpart (Bison) Im not saying just make Blanka balls qcf and call it a loving day. Im saying fix this loving character whos been trash garbage in 13 of his 14 loving appearances I can think of off the top of my head.

Charge characters with good buttons can hold back while pushing their good buttons and then push forward and press a button after like two good buttons land. I'm no historian on Blanka affairs but is he or Street Fighter somehow different in a way where the above doesn't work easily?

Reiley posted:Charge characters with good buttons can hold back while pushing their good buttons and then push forward and press a button after like two good buttons land. I'm no historian on Blanka affairs but is he or Street Fighter somehow different in a way where the above doesn't work easily? And that's the way it does work for most characters. The problemis that Blanka has never particularly worked well this way because he lacks a lot of things his counterparts have. Balrog's Rushing Punches and Bison's Scissor Kicks can be safe on block when you use the right button at the right range and tend to beat things they run into whereas Blanka balls are classically unsafe and get blown up by anything generating hitboxes. Guile, Vega, and Bison have normals that do both minor and major positioning changes, letting them move somewhat while holding a charge (Blanka would eventually get a slide, but he can't even use it while retaining a back charge.) E.Honda has invincibility on the start of his headbutts and his normals are basically built to sit in the charge positions. Balrog basically has the best buttons of nearly any game he's in AND can usually link them even at reach to damage. Blanka's buttons are good but they aren't so good that they really enable him to just sit at 1/3 distance or whatever and just play Bad Dhalsim with long arms and legs when he can't stick any damage. A lot of the buttons he can actually convert are short-ranged (cl.MK and cl.FP are usually two of his best attacks and his primary combo starters, whereas the only longer-reaching attack Blanka gets that's *sometimes* cancellable is cr.MK) and Blanka lacks ways to get into range of them while retaining a charge besides jumping. Even Electricity is much worse for Blanka then the other mash specials because Honda and Chun can at least convert mid-ranged pokes to extra damage, but Electricity means Blanka needs to be sitting directly on top of someone AFTER resolving buttons to get damage.
