Evil Canadian posted:GG's to all in the room tonight. Yeah man, ggs. My main problem with Superman is that he isn't on the ground very often in a range that I feel is good for Lex. Also, blocking correctly, but that's more a universal thing. We should do a tournament....as soon as I figure out how to beat Superman a lot.

He's a setup based character who never has time to set stuff up. I'd love for someone to surprise me though. I will beat you all the time one day. You will see. Also if anyone is lurking around with some kind of awesome Sex Luthor junk you could tell me I promise to keep it to myself.

Fenn the Fool! posted:You can do Corps Charge as an instant air move like Cyborg's fireball. It's still unsafe on block, but slightly less so. D1 is supposedly a frame trap letting you set up B13, 22D1, or throw. They say that 22D1 is a frame trap that you can loop at least once or that you can D1 after it. Sometimes these work for me and I can tell I caught them pressing a button. His damage isn't actually that bad you can get ~%40 with one meter and he builds it really quickly. And yeah, full screen isn't Lex's friend. I wish his Gravity Pull would suck people in whether they are blocking or not like Seth's Tanden Engine in SF4. Or at least be a lot safer to throw out raw.

Fenn the Fool! posted:How exactly does he get 40%? I believe his go-to combo is b13, db2 MB, b3, j3, 113, bf2 which nets an underwhelming 35% and typically you want to cut the end so you can setup forcefield/mine/probe which means you get just over 30% for a bar. To my knowledge his only safe overhead starter is b2u3 which, when hitconfirmed to d3, gets you a whopping 16% and no time for setups. Same deal with his throw and the follow ups to his 22 string, they're decent mixups but there's no reward for landing them. I've also seen people say they can hitconfirm off of his d1 into a 50/50, but both my personal experience with that and the frame data say that'd take some serious reaction times; more importantly there are a number of characters that can just cancel d1 into a safe combo starter and hitconfirm from there so this definitely isn't an area where Lex stands out from the rest of the cast. 22d1 to d1 frame trap is a thing, it works (barely, don't miss that 1 frame link), but again this is his only option for pressure and it pales in comparison to the rest of the cast. I just said ~40%. I've been slowly trying to work in J3, d1, db2 MB, 22, INTERACT, b3, Ji2, F2, bf2 for 45%. If you get them with a mine you can Ji3,d1,db2 MB, b3, ji2, f2, bf2 for 44%. For most characters that aren't Green Lantern I don't see any reason not to jump in so I am starting to use jump in to strings a lot. F2 is the better overhead for my use but I only do it when I know I've got them anticipating b13 and then it leads into 40% with F2, db2 MB, b3, Ji3, f2, db2. As for the 22 strings I'm pretty sure you can place a mine every time you hit these and even if they tech roll from the 22d1 a far mine gets them. And I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, but I count a well placed mine or an orb as pressure. Honestly though none of this works when I'm playing someone that knows how to play fighting games. I kind of feel like if I could calm down a little and put all of Lex's little pieces together more perfectly I could do alright.

It is probably not dying. This has been happening to me too. You need to clear all your different storage's cache and delete the title update. Maybe Lobo too. Those things fix it for me for a while until it starts doing it again.

You can really mash just about anything crouching for free on his regular teleport now. So if you can start anything from a low there you go. I can even do a couple of Lex's slower strings after I crouch it. These dumb patch changes are making my fun game bad and I don't like it.

Equilibrium posted:This is how it was before. d1 is fast but people wanted to it to be more punishable so it'd be easier to full combo punish off b2s and stuff online. You sort of get that now if you are a jedi and read the crossup, otherwise it's virtually the same on whiff (-21?) vs what it was pre-patch (-20). Well, no, it's not the same. You had to block a hit before. Now nothing happens.

It's annoying as hell just to watch, I couldn't imagine playing against him. I think it's pretty funny. You see him get hit with telepunches and crossup J3s somewhere close to a million times and then he gets mad, quits, and admits that he never practices the game.

strangemusic posted:I need to ask, because I keep getting absolutely wrecked: as Doomsday, what the hell do I do against a half-competent Nightwing? He's by far my worst matchup, leagues and leagues more trouble than most - I'd say Hawkgirl is a close second, but only because no one ever picks Hawkgirl. Go to practice. Set the dummy to always block. Set reversal to on and set different specials. Set wake up to on and set different specials. Block them and see what you can punish them with. If whatever you use isn't blocked then it's something you can punish with. If not then it will be blocked. I think that's a good place to start if you didn't already know. Record some of the things they do that trip you up and set it to playback and see what you can do. Or try to bribe someone to go into training mode with you.
