See Jinxhand thats what I was saying..pick Marco and Hotaru and now you see why I choose Mudman if people choose Hotaru and/or Marco. Too hard for Marco to do anything if he gets corned....Also man Tung is very very close next to Mudman.
Tung may be Marcos worst matchup with Mudman right next to it. Tung can run UNDER grenades....
Seems like that's the only thing Tung can do that Mudman can't though, and that's only for the high grenades... Well, Tung can also use air
which can cover some ground, but at a certain range, even EX dash punch can only help out in certain situations.
I think Mudman can do slightly better that Tung, only because he can trade more often, and in some cases, he can hit Marco from long range, and have enough time to block if the right projectile was used, especially into his super. Not only that, but once Mudman gets 2 stocks, Marco's gotta respect that level 2 super. Marco can't even air dash past it, thus ultimately changing the pace of the game in favor of Mudman.
The hitbox for Tung's
~
doesn't extend far enough to pose as much of a threat as it should. There have been times where a character was literally standing a little bit into the tip of the projectile, where it overlapped the opponent's character, and he still didn't get hit. It's still a great projectile imo, it just doesn't help Tung the way it should vs zoning characters, mostly Marco. That doesn't mean Tung can't give Marco a hard time. It's just that I think they equally have a hard time, one with rushing, and the other with zoning.
Mudman can't really outzone Marco, but I feel he has an easier time to close in on him, especially with that slide -n- bait tactic.
As for Hotaru, well. I think that's not too easy for Mudman (but he can still win), but easier for Tung. Hotaru's projectile can be beaten with EX dash punch. Hotaru's gonna want to close in, because that's where she shines, so one wrong move on Hotaru's part, and its Muscle Maaaaaaaaaaan!!! So yeah, even with Mudman's zoning abilities, he's gonna have to be careful up close, simply because he can't do too much against her. He does have the knee dive, but with her dp being pretty decent, he's gonna have to bait with a super jump to his hover move, and kinda play things by sight...
Even after all of that, I do feel that Tung is overall stronger than Mudman, and that's merely because Mudman doesn't have any really strong combos per sé. Outside of MuscleMan, EX combos and 236236P, Tung would probably be weaker than Mudman.
