Vanessa is my favorite but...

Vanessa is probably one of the hardest characters to use but she is great training for other characters.. getting her timing down makes using learning other characters so much easier to understand..

ex - been workin on her time attack since day one with no success.. few tips from erdraug and i not only finished hers but got through Goh's command time attack in 20 min (not a record but 2 time attacks in one day vs 0 time attacks in 2 weeks).. pretty dramatic improvement for me..

imma have to stick with Vanessa.. the more i learn about her the easier this game gets everyday!

THANK YOU ALL!!

 

Oh, if you want random tips for other characters, i found out that her OS + to + hit throw has the same timing as Brad's to + hit throw.

Of course, in a real match, i always mess the timing up. I like to blame the lag though

 

i blame the controller most of the time, gettin harder to do that cause im actually doing some pretty difficult stuff (for me) pretty regularly..

 

the thing that pisses me of most about lag is the way it complete nullifies disadvantage. It makes it so hard somestimes to beat mashers. But only on lagtacular matches. I have to switch to OS and jab/mid all day. Its so stupid...

 

Re: Vanessa is my favorite. No buts.

im still trying to understand the + - advantage stuff.. fighting games have their own language that im struggling to interpret..

edit-
new post isnt necessary, i posted here last anyway..

Finally ranked up again.. Gladiator status baby!! even fought a few player matches today.. i think i was 1:5, 1:4.. thank god no ones keepin track..

its pretty messed up that i pick on 10th dan Jefferies to rank up.. its just so easy!! plus that stupid ai Nate 1 always wants a freakin rematch when he loses.. i owe Jeffery a beer..

 

Re: Vanessa is my favorite. No buts.

anyone know how many fights (or even what ranks to fight) between rank ups.. i know the difference between master and the first title was 5 10th dans but im tryin to get to vindicator from gladiator..

searched a dozen times but i keep gettin my own thread (this one) and theres no mention of vindicator here.. searching vindicator alone gets an error..

(i dont like making new threads for stupid questions, if i cant figure it out imma just keep fighting everyone till the rank up comes)

 

Re: Vanessa is my favorite. No buts.

just keep winning against similar ranks. Theres no set number after master.

Re: Vanessa is my favorite. No buts.

gotcha, thanks a lot.. i had to stop head hunting ai Jeffry players in the arcade an hour ago, i think "Nate 1" is hiding from me..

played 1 ranked match earlier, really good fight.. even pulled off a few reversals (and not just the automatic ones Vane does)..

i feel kinda guilty fighting with such a low rank.. im not a Quest mode Gladiator for sure, but im definitely not a 10th kyu anymore.. thankfully.

 

Re: Vanessa is my favorite. No buts.

guilty? The kyus don't last long so don't worry. But my advice to you would be to do your best disregard your rank. It doesn't mean and it cloud the mind with worry during close matches.

Re: Vanessa is my favorite. No buts.

i definitely agree Chef.. the rank stuff doesnt mean that much to me but it seems shady is all.. at least my outfits are a dead giveaway.. i only going to use the 2 extras with plenty of hard earned items, feels more honest that way..

 

Re: Vanessa is my favorite. No buts.

Made a few costume adjustments.. gonna swap between a gatling gun and a sniper rifle online, pretty big red flags..

offline i prefer costume A, pale skin, blond ponytail, mountain camo pants and red boots.. nothing else, just her workout clothes..

online i get gaudy, maybe ill switch and be sneaky.. hmm..
