- Hey all you dhalsim masters, I think I'm well on my way to becoming a
- master. I have all the guides, have practiced a lot lately and am currently
- taking out or competing with all the local masters (ken and Ryu mostly).
- I know most of the basics, but I really don't know "what beats what." Please
- asnwer the following specifics as best you can :)
-
- READ FROM HERE IF YOU SKIM::
-
- * What reverses a jump-in by Ken/Ryu.
- I currently can short slide under and throw. But sometimes if the Ryu
- waits he can neck kick me WHILE I slide. How can I stop this? What dhalsim
- attacks stop an in close flying fierce? A in close flying roundhouse?
-
- * Hurricane kick problem.
- I can ussually block a Ryu hurricane kick and then throw him when he lands.
- But one guy THROWS ME when he lands, I though I should win that? Is this
- timing? I do use Yoga Flame when I have the time to get it off. But this
- guy hurricans close, if he hears me tapping buttons he DPs me, if he doesnt
- hear tapping he throws me? Ideas that will thrash him?
-
- * What is the best way to fuck Blanka's ball?
- Its really hard to time a counter to Blank'a ball. So how can I do the most
- damage as he bounces off? Is there any easy way to counter that I don't know?
-
- * The old twister into the guy then throw.
- I know this works if he doesn't expect it, but its 'cheap'. My question is
- how do I avoid being thrown if I don't want to be cheap? It seems like if I
- go in he can throw me even if I try to throw him - and he can throw me even
- if I don't want to? So what should my next move be? [I can't headbutt since I
- hit him in the head, not the knees, so I don't have time].
-
- * What is Dhalsim's best "push away" move?
- Everyone else can do some sort of jab when they are trying to push away
- a close, wanna-be-ticking opponent. What can Dhalsim do? ie. if someone
- got in on you and was going to short, you could ussually short first - but what
- do you do with this guy?? He doesn't have a quick short or jab. And jumping
- away from a master will get you a quick jumping roudhouse on your way up - or
- a Ken dp.
-
- * Combos anyone?
- So far the double headbutt plus one hit will get you a stun, but the 3rd hit
- can be blocked. Often I find on a close guy a strong,jab,fierce will hit him
- and push him back - he'll jump away instintively which you hit with a roundhouse.
- Pretty cool looking and he winds up far away and is set-up for you. But this
- guy has SO many funky moves he MUST have some awesome combos. I've been able
- to kick people INTO my fireballs - which also gets some "wooh"s from the
- crowds. With all these possibilities and Dhalsim ASSET of floating he should
- have some cool combos. ANY IDEAS?
-
- * General suggestions v. specific characters?
-
- Thanks a mil, in advance.
- All responses are greatly appreciated.
