Lol teleport. Overheads fullscreen. These are not real options. You have to be extremely careful or have some armorJump and kick him in the face, problem solved.
doesn't whiff a chain or OH demon (for slower characters)run, it'll whiff
What? The best way to deal with the up demon is to attack scorpion when he's in the middle of the animation.Lol teleport. Overheads fullscreen. These are not real options. You have to be extremely careful or have some armor
Jumping on scorpion is a silly risk.Jump and kick him in the face, problem solved.
that would involve getting near him..What? The best way to deal with the up demon is to attack scorpion when he's in the middle of the animation.
Any good player isn't gonna be randomly up demoning.Jumping on scorpion is a silly risk.
Any good players will bate at jump in range.
Who are you maining, scorpion's defensive game is kinda terrible.that would involve getting near him..
Then what? Do you just walk in slowly and get chipped out badly while he builds meter, for him to just escape you with amazing mobility and have it all happen again?I block low and react to oh. Worse case Ontario you take the oh that doesn't combo
Johnny cage, cassie cage and ferra/torrWho are you maining, scorpion's defensive game is kinda terrible.
Full and 3/4 screen they are.Any good player isn't gonna be randomly up demoning.
The only character I can see up demons being an issue for is johnny cage, cassie has instant air guns in hollywood and the rockets in spec ops, i'm not all that educated on ferra/torr but i'm almost certain that the ferra projectile trading with an up demon is better for you than it is for scorpion; and thats just some basic stuff.Johnny cage, cassie cage and ferra/torr
The instant air guns are next to impossible to land head height consistently, if i miss i eat a low minion for full combo, missle on spec ops is 40 something startup i would eat low minion all day.The only character I can see up demons being an issue for is johnny cage, cassie has instant air guns in hollywood and the rockets in spec ops, i'm not all that educated on ferra/torr but i'm almost certain that the ferra projectile trading with an up demon is better for you than it is for scorpion; and thats just some basic stuff.
Johnny Cage is a different story, he kinda sucks IMO but if you're using stunt double you can smack scorpion with mimics pretty easily if he's abusing the up demon.
My manWorse case Ontario
I usually just trance. Or run into sweep distance. That creates a footsie game where you can punish him for doing it, forcing him to do something else or do it again on a read. If your character still had no options here then this might be called a bad MU and is common among fighting games. I suggest you seek professional help from a secondaryThen what?

I'd recommend dropping cassie if you dont want to practice IAG, it's one of her essential tools.The instant air guns are next to impossible to land head height consistently
