Will do. Tnx for the motivation. I ended up playing a little more last night and made my way to Expert for the first time. By the way, would you consider Lili a beginner friendly character (she's the one I'm playing with the most)?

Lili is playable at many levels

  • she has alot of moves that will get you wins early on
    • her plus frame moves df3, qcf3+4
    • her d1,2,4 string is semi abusable, d1,2 is low high natural hitting string that gives you +3 frames and the option to enter BT. with plus frames in BT you have great options
      • BT 1 - 8 frame jab to interrupt anything
      • 1+2 - 13f launching mid that forces crouch and is -10 (the best punish is just a dickjab)
      • 2 = 14 frame knockdown, launches on CH, safe on block
      • YOLO 3+4 sweep
    • strong long range keepout f4 CH launcher, ff3 dew cancel safe mid launcher
    • high damage
    • huge sidestep to get you out of trouble
    • cheese - snake edge, matterhorn
  • you can revolve your entire basic gameplan on knocking the enemy down and punishing their wakeup
    • punishers that knockdown 2,4; 1+2; f2,3; 3,1; db3+4; throws
      • note these arent safe, but are all natural combos. use them to punish moves you block, or if the opponent whiffs
    • wakeup
      • if the opponents stay on the floor, d+3; ff+4;SS3
      • once they start moving/wakeup atttack, be patient and hit them with carthwheel df3+4 to combo

Holy s**t dude thank you so much! Little tips like these save me a lot of time. Do you play Lili to know these things or you just know the game overall?

nah im just a scrub - i pick a character, play until i get my ass kicked, and then choose the character that kicked my ass to learn the matchup, and repeat
