Crystalline tremor does very well against Smoke once you flex upAt the highest levels of play Sektor and Smoke are probably very close, but at lower levels Smoke seems stronger to me. Why ? Smoke has insane midscreen game with B21. F21 takes a lot to figure out. He has 3 launching/full punish specials and one of them is safe. And he has a vortex. What's Smoke's weakness ? He has no armor. But he has so many plus strings and midscreen tools that it's very tough to put him on the defensive.
Sektor is a very strong character to play with but as an opponent he is just not as daunting as Smoke. I don't think it's possible to properly figure out Smoke just by fighting him. You have to play him yourself to really understand some of the stuff he can do.
Probably does very well against sektor too. He has no special way to combat that armor that smoke doesnt.Crystalline tremor does very well against Smoke once you flex up
Up rockets?Probably does very well against sektor too. He has no special way to combat that armor that smoke doesnt.
Could be. You can barely use up rockets in the neutral though, mostly just within setups and f212bb. So I'm not sure how effective they'll be when Tremor is on the offensive.Up rockets?
This mu is almost entirely based off of tremor getting him in the corner or not. Once tremor has him there its hard to get away. If sektor can keep it in the middle of the arena though where he can space him out with a stronger neutral and zoning game. Be mindful when zoning him though when he has flex up. Yea you can react to up rock easy with teleport, but if flex is till up he will absorb the hit and punish you. A compitant tremor is going to have flex up alot for this reason, so its hard for you to teleport on him.Could be.

I've neither played or seen this matchup enough to say if that's an effective strategy against flex.
Ya. Crystalline Tremor is all about momentum anyway. He'd struggle against any character that can interrupt his offense consistently.This mu is almost entirely based off of tremor getting him in the corner or not.

Sektor is definitely easier to start. Smoke is an out-and-out rushdown character, like Crystalline Tremor. He must take the initiative to exert pressure on the opponent at all times. He does possess some very powerful tools, but there's just one way to play Smoke - full offense. Sektor can either zone or go in based on match-up or circumstance. He can do both better than average, way better.I'd say sektor is much easier to start, because I tried to start playing with smoke and it didn't work out very well. Run cancel combos, fades/phases, always have to be mobile. With sektor it's easier to stay calm and wait for your opponent to make a mistake and start your thing. Buuuut I like smoke much better, probably because of his look and his smokey combos
Nah, I don't think so. I think of Imposter as the single strongest variation in the game. No way either Sektor or Smoke can stand up to him. But there's also Mileena (Ethereal at the very least, and probably the other two as well) that is stronger than any Triborg variation IMO. But there's no doubt both Sektor and Smoke are in the top 10.Sektor and Smoke are both top 2 of the game imo. Depends on the MU which one is the go-to.
