How do YOU play Kage?

    Hey everyone - how ya doin /versus/images/icons/smile.gif

    I got VF4 last Wednesday (that's 3 days ago from today /versus/images/icons/laugh.gif) and I've created a Kage appropriately named "Bubba Fuzz"... He's at 4th Dan, with 216 wins and 10 losses...

    Since my style of play is very much underdeveloped and a bit patchy, I was wondering how all of you play Kage. Maybe I can take a few pages out of your books /versus/images/icons/smile.gif

    Here's a brief outline of my style of play.

    As I mentioned - it's a bit simplistic... Which is good and bad I suppose. I play a poking game... kinda hard to describe. I spose it's a newbie poking game ^_^... I keep my distance, abuse the [6][6]+[P]+[K]+[G] when I'm far enough, and use the [7]+[K]+[G] move when the opponent gets too close. I also use TFT combos often, and I also abuse the [K]+[G] moves (ie [6]+[K]+[G] or [1]+[K]+[G])... The rest of my repetoire is a bit patchy and I occasionally resort to mashing the punch buttons, then backing up like holy hell *bows head in shame*

    As you can see - although I'm going well against the CPU in Kumite mode, my game is pretty strange and reeks of noobishness... unfortunately. :p

    That's just a very brief outline of my "style" if you can call it that :p...

    Hope to get some feedback here... any help regarding my own game would be much appreciated...

    argh i was just about to post how i use kage and then i accidently pushed the back button DARN >.< well i will post that later(perhaps /versus/images/icons/smile.gif ) anyways here is a little tip : do NOT abuse his [6][6]+[P]+[K]+[G] move if it is blocked/whiffed your opponent will have enough time to kick j00r azz /versus/images/icons/wink.gif

    Mostly hit&run, throws and ring-outs with my Conqueror Kage (no ring name).

    [4]+[P]+[K]+[G] followed by some [K]+[G] move (mostly [6][6] and [6]) is real fun and I use them often. For throwing I mostly go with TFT followed by [2]+[P]+[K] (can't do the knee reliably), [4][P][K], [6]+[K]+[G], [6][2][3][P] or [4][2]+[P][G] followed by [8]+[P] (which looks absolutely hilarious). /versus/images/icons/wink.gif I start using other throws when the comp starts to break out of those all the time. When I can, I try to go for ring outs. [6][6]+[P]+[K]+[G] on open arenas and TFT's over low walls.

    Of course I use other moves as well, but those mentioned above and the different [P] strings are the main ones.

    And I know I'd get badly beaten by any good player with that kind of tactics (then again, I've only played for about three months), but the thing is, I never play against any. My friends are even worse than I am, and there are no arcades in here so... comp is my only option, and it goes down with that fun and cool stuff (though the High Kings are a bit tricky since they escape throws so damn often). Thank god for Kumite mode...

    (Btw, this post typing area is annoyingly small... /versus/images/icons/frown.gif )
