How do you guys use your plus frames? I feel like I'm too defensive when I'm at advantage when I know they have a 6/7 frame normal.

Question:
Why when I set the AI or myself to do the reversal EXdb2 out of erron black f13 ex sand grenade, 50% of the time the overhead punch comes out and other 50% is the straight punch coming out?

I needed to practice fighting Erron anyway so I checked it out. Had no issue doing all three versions of DB2Ex on the sandgrenade in that string. I don't know, do you have input shortcuts on or something that may be messing it up?

Speaking of which, I don't understand why DJT wasn't able to get the armor off against Sonic Fox at DTN. When I mess it up no armor comes out, but when armor comes out it works.

Edit: Was using wrong version of move, duh.

I've tried armoring EX DB2 against the F13 EX sand grenade and it's too slow and never comes out, I tried EX DB2u and I get a trade with Erron, I tried jumping back after the EX sand grenade and he gets no combo follow up.

When you say trade with DB2U do you mean your armor breaks? I'll have to practice some more with it, I failed to armor more then a few times but I never had my armor break. Obviously it can happen but IDK.

Definitely going to need to practice jumping out of it, thanks for mentioning it.

Yes my armor breaks every time I use EX DB2U, I also tried EX DB2 run cancel into crouch block against EX SG and then I tried using my D1 because Erron's F13 EX SG leaves him in +Frames and If I did a reversal EXDB2 Run cancel It would leave me in +frames too so I could D1 and start pressuring but unfortunately Erron's d1 is faster than Tremor's by 1 frame and Erron is in more +frames than I am

Yea I'm a dummy I was using the wrong version of Sand Grenade.

But I think I like taking a small hit and a knockdown as opposed to those plus frames when you jump.

For the past week I have spent all of my MKX time with Aftershock Tremor. After some contemplation, I see that Crystalline could be better at dealing with characters like Kung Lao, Tanya, and other pressure heavy characters.

What are you guys' thoughts on these two variations and the pros/cons of both? Please don't start talking about Metallic cause I don't want to play that variation.

Seems like Aftershock and Crystalline are both strong variations, I just want the general consensus on what is better about either variation.

It's all so very confusing.
Aftershock has smexy air mixup jumpy low things, crystal has armor armor and better armor launchy smashy rocks. Crystal also has sound fx in the game.

Ok, I'm a newb, but I see it as crystal being better vs rush-down and Aftershock being better the rest of the time.

Aftershock anti-zones quite well (it seems to me) and you can really build nice mindgames off his jumpy low smashing silliness.

Crystal, with armor and the armored, faster launcher thing is nice. If you get momentum on your side it can be tough for the opponent to get it back, dealing with oh rocks, armor and the threat of your launcher with meter.

Just a newbs take on things, a more experienced player might shit on my opinion. But that's how I see the variations.

I've had Tremor for about 2 weeks now, love using him but I've dropped so many combos due to this stupid PS4 pad, half the time b2 db2u won't even come out & I find myself throwing out db3 constantly. A combination of the 2 is killing me.

Any advice for a broken man?

Cheers.

I had similar issues.

II fixed my problem by slowing down the entire thing. I would just db2d to launch and then b2. Id do that over and over. Then I'd start adding db2 after the b2. Then gradually add the up.

One thing that helped me a lot was making a conscious effort after the b2, to totally remove my thumb from the dpad, then input the rest. I was trying to be speedy and as a result was muddling up the inputs and tripping over myself. So b2, remove thumb, db2u.

After I started doing that and repaired my incorrect muscle memory, I got the combo down almost 100% in a matter of about two practice sessions. I still find myself defaulting to the old muscle memory I built originally though, but I always stop, slow down and remind myself to remove after the b2 and clean up my inputs.

Good advice by @EntropicByDesign. I've played tremor using a hitbox since his release. His inputs are less then ideal for pad. The ps4 pad (at least for me) is just counter intuitive for a game that doesn't require rolling your thumb. When doing db2u on a pad you have to let the d pad go neutral then press up. On a hitbox I just tap down on my thumb button. Neutral is achieved much faster on hitbox. Basically If your serious about tremor, hitbox is what you want to be learning.

Hitbox is trash and dumb to use. Almost as trash as the netkode.

@Eldriken BF2 is very plus, but given how slow it is most other projectiles will stuff it on startup. Not to mention it being a high does him no favors either.

Not trying to be an ass, but why did you tag me? o_o I know his bf2 is plus on both hit and block. Hell, you can convert off of it on hit from mid screen if you have the stamina to run up to them.

It also should be a mid and have reduced startup frames.

It's early and I believe you mentioned BF2 being plus made up for the fact that it was plus. Though it may have been someone else.

Oh. I said I can understand why it's so slow due to how plus it is, but that doesn't mean I'm content with its startup frames. It could use a massive boost to its startup.
