Cinder Unpunished

All this is on paper, doesnt applt online with lag, etc.The only time you can" punish" a cinder is if you guesd right and block his dp. You cant jump, you can meaty, you cant grab, everything is guesswork. Plus they always runing away, so annoying,

I have a suggestion. Everytime cinder does trailblazer. Mash light. Itā€™ll work Everytime.

These are universal punishes how does it not apply to online? Lag also has nothing to do with the actual character.Not denying fighting him is guesswork but seeing a trailblazer and jabbing or dping right after isnā€™t.

New player here. What does it mean to be positive or negative on block?

Positive on block means that if you do a move, you can do something before the opponent can completely recover. Negative on block means the opponent recovers before you can.

Awesome. Thanks for the reply!

Well yeah, thatā€™s what a punish is and thatā€™s how it works for the entire cast.

Cinder is my 2nd fav char to play and I am working on getting much better with him because everytime I go to do a move I feel like Iā€™m just spreading my butt cheeks with baby oil. He may have fast recovery that makes it seem like heā€™s too positive but that is just to lure us newb Cinder players into a false sense of secuirity. In reality he actually has SF2 Blanka PRIORITY on his specials, i.e. a simple jab punch will shut most of it down. Working on overcoming that is one of my top priorities as a rookie to KI3 wanting to have Cinder as a 2nd Main after Spinal.

Summon Suffering wasnā€™t a bad input imo. The 8wr system allowed you to buffer it from most of her 8wr moves.

As for Cinder, heā€™s very punishable. Check the frame data and lab it up in training mode.

Very true. It was also satisfying to pull off. On paper though it looked insane. :smiley:

When I first read the topic title I thought it was some newly discovered tech to make Cinder harder to punish so badly. I got excited. See my previous post above to realize the depths of my disappointment, lol.

I apologize for being so rude and devalued your work and the whole team involved in this, I feel ashamed of what I said, you were right, Iā€™m sorry Keits.

Try p;aying Cinder and having your trailblazer punched out with a light attack. Also firedup flip-kicks can be punished upon landing. Everything Cinder does on block can be punishable save for a few things, but then again so do other characters.
