HOLY ***T, THEY REMOVED SONYA'S MILITARY STANCE JUMP CANCEL!
If it wasn't for Tom Brady's block trap discovery, we would still have it, and Sonya would be able to do 60%+ combos! I HATE YOU, TOM BRADY! :grr:
Ok, not really.
It was a necessary fix. But I'll miss her Military Stance Jump Cancel really bad, though.
Well, now all she can do is 53% midscreen and 56% in the corner... =/
What do you guys do after an uppercut that sends them to the other side of you? Dash D1 DF3?
And what are you guys using for AA? I've been thinking MS B2.
After the uppercut I just usually Dasha and
twice in order to confuse the opponent. I really never worked on such setup, since this situation doesn't happen too much.
As for AA, Arc Kick and Uppercut. Her Arc Kick has a great range, and her uppercut is hella fast so it's really useful.
MS
is just kinda slow. I don't like to use it in any situation besides within a combo. And sometimes, when your opponent is close to you in the air, her forward step for the
will make Sonya miss the attack and you'll end on the opposite side. And then, you're screwed! xD
How do you combo dive kick into Xray? I can only seem to get it randomly ...
Well, you can't just Dive Kick and do the X-Ray. You must hit your opponent with a normal attack after the Dive Kick first. I suggest you to use the
+any followup combo, since it's the most effective after the Dive Kick.
Fact is that you must press
or any other attack button you want IMMEDIATELY after doing the Dive Kick. Don't wait for hit confirmation. Just do it! LOL
If you don't press the following buttons quickly enough, you won't get a combo at all.
You're pressing
too soon. I believe that the best way to do it right in your case is to follow
TheFluke's first suggestion. Just keep holding
until you have to press
and you'll be fine.
