You were going in man GGsMy last tournament with S tier cassie *cries*. Still will main spec ops no matter what though.
anything you could do before you can still do with Nutpunch, you just will have to make reads instead of throwing it out blindI can't play her now. I based my whole gameplan over armor breaks with the flipkick. Considering how stupid things some other characters have Im surprised how bare bones Cassie feels now. She's playable but the fun is gone, at least for me. I mained her since the release day and endured every change but this is one is a bit too much.
In regards to the chip, it opens up a mixup of will she EX guns or finish the strings so that's pretty neat if you ask me since I THINK they made the string gapless but B212 on its own -14.She seems decent but she isnt the threat she used to be. Even mind games like 212 stagger 212 ex flip kick doesnt work anymore since 6f d1 got passed out like candy. I tried doing a b124 ex flip and traded with alien and lost meter....that blows. Losing that sick guaranteed chip too just hurts as does not being able to punish -6 things like JC f244. I havent gotten to test it yet but Cassie used to be able to punish flame fist kangs punch freakout move into any cancel. im still gona use Cass but man this patch sucked for her
When pressuring people, it's pretty good if you can condition them to not push a button so you can do a 50/50 mixup on them. I use 11 because it's plus 2 on block and that makes D3 or flip a frame trap (beaten by armoured attacks of course). Once my opponent thinks I'm going to press D1 or do a flip and they're scared. I just do a throw, overhead or low attack to try and open them up. The same can be applied with B12, despite being negative on block you can mix it up with B124 and if they respect that whole string then you're plus on block. If you use the EX version of nut punch, you get another free 50/50 mixup on your opponent. It can be devistating in the corner. Regular nutpunch is nice but it's only +3 and has pushback but it stops wakeup attacks so that's pretty cool I guess.hello guys Im new to mkx, not total rookie I played it casually with pals but I want to go next lvl now. This forum already helped me a lot in understanding of this game so really thanks guys you are awesome. I picked cassie hollywood, got some questions.
1.Do you use stick for all her special moves. for example flipkick is very inconsistent for me, and I use buttons for it. Or df1 into d2 , its impossible to do on stick (for me).
2. What do i do? lol. I basically know all her basic combos and I try rush opponent with mixing it up + nut punch ending. some poke with d3 and then again xD Im working on run combos still. recently i beat some 80+ lvl guy and he texted me "spammy little fuk"
3. For In the corner i go with 242,njp, 33 , db2, 33 , bd3 as I can do it 100% of the time, but should I go ex version of nut punch to continue pressure? It works like this, yes ? or maybe you guys recommend something else.
4. some other character to play? i like bonesharper sungod and smoke @youtube
ps. Im EU.
You can trade with a 6 frame move then convert off of the trade if you use regular flip. Risky but meh, make the right reads lolI thought they rolled that back and there wasnt a gap in the string anymore? I havent had anyone punish it yet, the cancel advantage is just dead.
My problems with Cassie now are her 2 positive strings having gaps in them since her other nerfs. Theyre also +1 and cassie has no 6f move anymore. Since they passed out 6f pokes to everyone else like candy, youll be challenged quite a bit. This wouldnt be an issue if cassie could still threaten with flip kick, but she cant anymore. Ive been knocked out of flip kick ex on neutral plenty of times by pokes causing me to just lose meter. It creates another standoff which used to be in Cassies favor but is not anymore.
Having the threat of that pseudo safe ex backflip is mainly what made her so strong imo....i find myself needing to switch to WG Kotal now for several mus >.< which fucking sucks because Cassie turned into maybe my favorite character
Yeah man its risky, a risk she used to not have to take. If they use armor youll get blown up whereas you used to just be safe doing ex flip kick. I get you should be ideally making the right reads but having those options available made the opponent respect cassie up close that much more beforeYou can trade with a 6 frame move then convert off of the trade if you use regular flip.

I don't mind because I've been using raw flip for a while now when she's plus. It can literally stike the fear of god into an opponent because they'll think you're a crazy son of a bitch lol. If somebody ain't respecting the plus frame Cassie has, then I make it my mission to force them to over respect it. Sometimes that means sacrificing health just so that they know you mean business but it's worth it sometimes.Yeah man its risky, a risk she used to not have to take.

b2,1,2,d2+4 doesn't have a gap as it did on the online beta version, They crippled both b2 strings cancel advantages on block to 12 frames (so 13 frames ex guns wont jail)My problems with Cassie now are her 2 positive strings having gaps in them since her other nerfs.
it does have a gap bro idk what youre chattingb2,1,2,d2+4 doesn't have a gap as it did on the online beta version, They crippled both b2 strings cancel advantages on block to 12 frames (so 13 frames ex guns wont jail)
It has a gap if you try to cancel it into specials, otherwise you cannot interrupt the last overhead hit.it does have a gap bro idk what youre chatting
