Bosushi! posted:Thanks for the games Demmonaz. Hahaha, yeah. I like playing lots of games because of stuff like that. I'm trying to pay attention to meter, how I use it and how to maintain clash advantage, ie: keeping some meter and making the other guy waste his. I have a lot to learn, I barely ever jump and need to work on crossups, spacing on my specials, better use of fireball, etc. I also need to learn2demon stance. 223 is basically the only string of Raven's where I know WTF to do with it. You really helped me work on implementing throws a bit more than I had been doing previously. My favorite stage as Raven by far is Halls of Justice, the few matches we played there I think you can see why. I liked playing your Green Lantern, I'm not familiar with how to play Raven against him at all really. I know I need to stay close-ish and avoid all the missles, but that delayed meter burn one is so annoying. Raven has the projectile absorb but it's really hard to do on reaction to the faster projectiles, especially online. ed: If you were able to find a more consistent way in with Flash and work his 50/50s you would also find out I am incredibly bad at blocking. ed2: Also, another tip, I think if Flash has any partially invincible wakeup options that would also beat the crap out of anything I was doing to you on wakeup. I'm clueless as how to punish anything right now as Raven either, so while some people would bait them out I couldn't even if I wanted to.

PantsBandit posted:So I had a tough time beating Raven players for a long time but now if I see someone pick her I just immediately counterpick with Deathstroke. There's just nothing she can do to stop him and I love it. This isn't really true, Raven is even one of the few characters with a teleport which can light Deathstroke up if used properly. Ducking his straight pistol shot will get you a soul crush, blocking it up close you can also punish it with a reversal soul crush, blocking machine gun will also get you a soul crush as a punish. From full screen her projectile absorb will also absorb guns if you're good at pre-empting them. edit: PantsBandit posted:Raven players tend to rely on her force-grab which is super punishable with guns. You can shoot her out of the beginning of her teleport animation so if she activates demon mode just keep hammering her with the machine gun. If she airteleports then use a sword spin and continue to zone. If she does get in her melee is kinda slow so it's easy to get the distance back and then you can keep hitting her with the machine gun and mb machine gun. All I know is I haven't lost to a Raven in that matchup once. You're playing dummies, I'm not even the best at the matchup obviously but Raven is by no means free. She shouldn't ever be using soul crush against Deathstroke without a reason, sword flip is also one of the easiest specials in the game to punish and it's simple to bait out from poor Deathstroke players. Raven shouldn't be just eating your machine guns, if any of them gets blocked it's a very easy punish because the recovery on them doesn't even require you to reversal them to punish them. Machine gun is one of the worst tools against Raven because the startup is easily beaten by soul crush. If you're a mediocre Deathstroke player and can't play his up close game as well as his zoning game then a competent Raven shouldn't be losing against you.

I've tried a bunch of people and I just have a hard time learning these insane combo strings (still haven't gotten down canceling) I see on TestYourMight If you can't do something as simple as cancelling yet then there's not really any character that's going to be particularly easy. For me, Green Lantern has the easiest combos in the game.

Yeah, it's b12, ending your combos with db2 and not df2 gives you slightly more damage. It's also a pain in the rear end to f222 after j3, at least online, so I prefer j2.

Soonmot posted:I *think* I was having trouble connecting with the b3s. J1 into 223, 223 is Raven's main up close string that is + on block, they have to do something about it or sit there taking it all day. Depending on what they do you counter it, if they start backdashing the 3 you stop at 22 and soulcrush, if they start trying to poke out of it you counterpoke them with a d1 or MBb3, if they keep blocking it you throw them, their only real way out is to pushblock, Joker, Batman and Killer Frost can parry the 3 but that just means you have to bait out the parry. Depending on matchup/distance F3 works as an overhead, MB F3 is good too, there's also the FF bounce cancel off of b12.

Mr.Unique-Name posted:I think they might scale kind of extremely. Eh, depends on what you're doing, some moves eg: frost pipe in Arkham stage will scale the rest of the combo deeply. I can do a standard Raven combo in the corner and end a bit early into stage transition and get 45% out of it instead of the 30ish it would normally do. Unless you meant 21% ontop of whatever they were already doing. WarEternal fucked around with this message at 06:06 on May 15, 2013 |

sentrygun posted:Pretty sure Raven's reflect only works on high projectiles, and it's already hard enough to suck up all the shots on Quick Fire. It probably wouldn't last long enough to eat Machine Gun even if it did work against it. It eats the entirety of machine gun as long as you time it right, but using your projectile absorb against Deathstroke has to be entirely anticipatory and this isn't very likely to end up in your favor, ever, it works against all of Deathstroke's non-MB guns though, you can't MB absorb though because as soon as you do you stop absorbing projectiles and unless you do it at the very last active frame of the guns (basically impossible, you can do it but the timing is stupid) you'll get hit out of it. Machine gun is literally Deathstroke's least frightening option vs Raven, just block it and soul crush punish, I think it even does the least amount of chip. As Raven, if you're far vs. Deathstroke, blocking low will allow you to soul crush everything he does (blocking machine gun at all gets you a soul crush punish, ducking mid pistols gets you a soul crush punish) except for low gun which you get a free dash in if you block.

Watching Aris is entertaining to me because after, how many weeks now? People still seem clueless as to what to do vs. Deathstroke, it seriously looks like nobody spent any time in the lab at all over three+ weeks. Just one example, the majority of his DF3s that get blocked result in no punish from the person blocking them.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:I've seen this happen in other fighting games, and it never makes much sense to me. It's like, I picked my character almost immediately, who are you trying to fool with making it look like you're going to pick someone else? All of you guys are posting reasons I almost never get into ranked games. The main reason is that I would say half the time their connection is absolute dogshit and makes the game unplayable, the other reason is that playing some dude once teaches me absolutely nothing and most of the people playing ranked I can beat because half of them don't even block, which is supremely boring. Playing with goons is 5000x better, the other time is spent noodling around in practice or doing arcade mode or something. I did do a player match KotH and get 8 wins in a row as Raven, though, it's really funny to see people start to drop out when you have 2 wins in a row, then basically everyone disappeared once I was at 4 wins, only one guy remained to play a few games.

He's not bad, just his trait isn't that good and he cant get damage like Superman or Black Adam Joker also has a pretty good wakeup in the form of his poison flower, which is also a good special because it can make some of his unsafe strings safe on block. He also has a really good backdash. ThePhenomenalBaby posted:You'd see more Joker if his trait wasn't complete garbage. It's not good, or even decent, but it's not "complete garbage", there are some useful strings that it can interrupt, eg: Green Lantern's b12 or b13.

Shadow Ninja 64 posted:Shazam bf2 is -12 and f1 is like 16 frames, so it won't work. When you recorded the dummy doing bf2 into block, did you remember to account for the fact it would side switch? The best way to test/practice how to punish punishable special moves, for me anyway, is to set the practice bot to reversal the special in question, set them to always block, and then tap them with a jab, block the special and try to punish from there. Not TOO related to what you were saying, but just a general tip.

My #1 accidental input is db1 when I'm trying to d1 with Raven, which would help me a lot but I'm always afraid of getting the db1 instead. I need to fix my controller to somehow only input D when I press D instead of the DB or DF if you push it to the far left/right.

Jmcrofts posted:Whoops apparently you need to verify your account to upload long videos. Fixed it: One thing I notice when playing you is you almost never use your meter for anything. You get enough bars to have full clash just from taking damage if you spend a few in the first "round" so you should be at least be meter burning charge when it hits, or trying to blow up people's normals with armored b3/f3s, or armored interactables. I personally find that almost no one expects armored b3/f3s and that they're really good for getting damage. e: I'm sure you know after it happened, but I think all, or at least the majority of, supers in this game go through armor.

Rugpisser posted:So for a cross up whats the "line" that it crosses to be on the other side? Is it simply something like draw a line down the center of the character, or is it more akin to anything behind the head needs to be blocked the other way? I think it's more or less as you described, a line down the center of the character, it's hard to really describe precisely. It's dependent on the hitbox of the actual move coming at you, for example Black Adam's jump2 where his toe hits at a very strange angle, so it can look like it's going to be in front of you and actually hit behind. e: Basically, a character's "cross up" jumping attack tends to be the one with the most ambiguous hitbox.

It looks entirely like his MK9 moveset, I think maybe a jump attack might have been different? It will be interesting to see how he ranks in Injustice I guess.
