Beaten, by this mere man
ive found that the longer I play against any given opponent with relative skill, the more they respect raidens strings by not waking up and waiting in case i do a df2 after a sparks(hold 2) string.
Because of this I see the opportunity to add a mixup game on top of his 50/50 using LRC, for example:
1. 21LRC- once people respect 214 you can do 21LRC and if they're blocking do either b2 or b32, if they're hit you can do 214df2EX which combos(21LRC 214)
2.b3LRC-this actually combos midscreen as well as in the corner if you do b3LRC 214df2EX although it is harder midscreen. If the b3 hits turn that into a combo but if they block you can leave the 214 at 21LRC again and continue pressure.
Whilst these cancels are interruptible it is very difficult and could result in them being caught by the full strings like 214 and b33 into full combos. I'll link a video I'll upload later to this thread demonstrating what I've written
I believe the mastery of these pressure cancels and others are how we can progress the character further and effectively utilise run midscreen especially like scorpion has in hellfire and Liu Kang has in dragons fire.
