Hotaru shouldn't have many problems vs Freeman really. The match is in her favor. She has the better air attacks overall and her air grab beats out a lot of Freeman's jump in options. If he keeps jumping at you use her , , + / or you can use her + + to stop his jump in attempts. On the ground far stand / are good pokes to use. Also + has good range and beats out a lot of normals for the most part. Her + + beats out all of Freeman's pokes so use it to make him think twice about sticking out normals. Besides all that just look for patterns in his strings or habits he tends to do like jump up or in during a certain string, etc. Let me know if those things work for you. If not maybe you can post a replay/video showing the person you are playing.

hay how do you play as  kain on ggpo. also at the end of a match should i hit restart so me and my opponet can reselect out characters

I don't get your first question. Do you mean how do you play Kain on GGPO or are you asking for my ggpo name? On GGPO you pretty much are using him the exact same way really as you would offline. I would say it's harder using Kain online cause a lot of his stuff requires strict timing.

If you and your friend are just picking different characters each time then yea you would have to reset everytime. Unless you guys play all the characters well enough you can always just do roullete to be random.

I'm sorry let me be more clear I can't seem to chose him on the select  screen

Highlight jae hoon then hold start, down down up up down up. If u already know this then you are just messing up the inputs.

Yea on the arcade version you have to enter the code to use Grant or Kain. Pure posted the code for you. It's also on the third post of this thread.

Looks like the links are still dead.  I even went to the SRK thread, and the links don't work either.

[Giby]

All the links died when they changed their forum software.

[Nocturnal]

The other problem also is I can't edit the first and second posts of the thread on SRK because of the new character limit added. I'll have to change the format on it again when I get a chance.

[purplecity]

its not ideal, however you can copypaste any older SRK links into google and use the 'cached' function to pull them up.


edit: this unfortunately does not work anymore, too much time has passed and the cached pages are replaced with nothing  

[Nocturnal]

Yea I could do that too. I'll see what I can do though to make it a bit cleaner than before.

At what point in a Korean or Terry corner assault can I finally attack? It seems I can only block and get killed. I was playing w/spelunker+ btw if you guys wanna know who I was fighting.

It's that time of the month again. Anyone who's around the Philly, PA area and wants to play, I'm having my monthly Garou session this Friday night (7/15). People are free to come by anytime after 7-8pm. I'm located in Glenolden, which is near the airport. Let me know if you're thinking of coming by. Otherwise, I should have a stream running as usual.

There's a small opening whenever Terry goes to get back in close to continue his string, usually involving either his  + or a small jump  / . In the case of him using  + , I usually use a well timed  + + to beat him out of it. If I remember right, you use Hotaru? Her  x2  / can also be used to get out of the string.

[Nocturnal]

All you have to do is mash super.....just kidding. Pretty much what jt explained. + + beats the , + . If he jumps either kick super him (could be risky if he's expecting it) or JD into GC (depending on how low or the angle Terry hits you should determine the special/super you should GC into).

What about Koreans and also Hoku? He just does st.D break xN until I get guard broken and there aint jack I can as far as I can see.

I don't get what you mean by Koreans? You talking about the Korean players or a specific thing? If he's doing the feint cancel loop with Hoku on block you wont be able to break out of it until he messes up or he guard crushes you first.
