Had a bad night online. I thought online was 'okay' before but for whatever reason half the time I can't get my combos out. It's totally random. I'm not mashing. I have the timing down and they don't come out half the time. Then short hops become regular jumps and you eat yet another AA.
Then it got weird, I played a guy who had a nice Shen, but he used Flame Iori, and he knocked me down in the corner, I hold back to block his short hop C, and I eat his combo. This happened 3 times in a row. I know I'm blocking correctly, and nothing. Free combo for them.
Doesn't help that almost everyone online is very, very content to pick shoto, runaway, spam projectile, and do random AA's... Thank god for Clark.
Can't find my mojo for a solid 2nd character either. I do well with Clark and Billy but not so much Flame Iori. I feel like I get in, do Rekka if it lands, SRK or crC to AA them, maybe go for a command grab on their wakeup. Maybe I kill their character, I runaway and use projectile to build one more bar for Clark and I get killed. Tried out Kyo and Ryo, didn't like 'em. Here's hoping for Mr. Karate.
