Jax hw plays very different than a-list. Jax has different tools for he's pressure. 11 being i6 start up and +2 on block for example. He's cancel is more of a meter building and hitconfirming. It's great for pressure too but every one can poke out of it. I think it would destroy a-list if hes cancels were like jax's. Cage doesn't have a low starter. Not sure of he's buttons but I think it would break break a-list.
Derptile you mean like d'vorah?
Don't you just want to brush your teeth and push buttons forever?
I guess being able to hitconfirm into a full combo or be safe is not good enough.
Jax has better pokes, armor, mobility, and multiple normals which are plus on block without RCs.
so, what I said. still, even in the current status, they shouldn't jail or break armor. having a good execution isn't an excuse to turn off the brain.
Why are u shitting your y-fronts over gimmick scrub sports?
What I did, I went with Stunt Double, he is more fun anyway.Practice m8. Or just play stunt double and be just as good as a-list without needing the execution
some enchanced moves can take a hit without being interrupted, those are the moves we refer to. not every enhanced move has armor though.
Ah ok, so some enhanced moves that require bar have armor meaning that even if the opponent is hitting you with another hit since yours has armor it'll win correct? Also is this what they mean when people talk about wake up counters?
Being negative isn't being safe... Even if it isn't a full combo punish you still are being punished for being negative in the form of losing positioning, the opponent being able to pressure you, etc. It gives your opponent time to set up their game safety is being plus or neutral. The only time negative frames are truly safe is when it is at a distance, and even then you aren't always safe, but in the context of run cancels, obviously you are in their face so you are not safe in the slightest
I'm tempted to post this on scrubquotes.
question, is this your first fighting game.
Cancel characters take more of a brain than standard 50 50 characters. Its easy to go up and mix someone when a character has a low and oh starter. Canceling perfectly especially when it doesn't jail is not. If cancels require to switch off your brain, i wonder what 50 50 characters are then lol.
Pressure characters don't require you to make any decisions. To be clear I'm not saying 50/50s do. Similarly it is easy to go up and get some chip damage that they can only prevent with two bars
No... How the hell does what I say sound scrubby? If you are negative, you are at a disadvantageous situation. Which obviously is not good. Just because you aren't getting raw damage doesn't mean it isn't a punish. If you are negative and give a zoner time to back up for zoning is that not punishing you for being negative? Yes you can take advantage of a situation where you are negative on block but don't insult my intelligence by calling me a scrub or asking if this is my first fighting game. It isn't. Keep in mind when I say negative is always punishable, i am only talking about cancels, cancels for pressure, as in up in the opponents face, if you are negative, generally it is your opponents turn to pressure/push buttons is it not? Yes, there is armor and counter pokes etc. But even then your opponent has more options than you when you are negative. no shit if it is from full screen you are safe. Literally how does that not make sense?
Uh what? Liu kang is a pressure character, a lot of his cancels dont jail, so when im pressuring i think "ok this wont jail, he can try to backdash, should i stop my string and run in to catch it"? "He has a bar and can armor this cancel, should i cancel into block and bait it or just do it and see if he knows he can beat it"? Those sound like options and decision making to me. I challenge any of you to use a cancel character and see if you can herp derp pressure your way to victory.
