And what i mean is, the ones that dont really fight but like wait for you to make a mistake and then retaliate with a tele-kick or that Gosh forsaken roll lol

And no, im not saying she is broken by any means but it can be very fustrating fighting them

I dont think ive lost to a Mileena player yet, but its always a close match.....unnecesarily lol

Well, tell me what you guys think a good strategy would be to make this a much easier match if you can

And/Or tell me what u guys think about this whole situation
 
I just wait for them. I play more of a defensive game against her cause her moves are so random such as her teleport kick and roll. They happen so quick and if the mileena player is any good she can follow up with some pretty good damage. Im just always on thye alert against her however as the match progresses, she gets very predictable.
 
I've only faced one Mileena player yet, and he(or she, or it) was really good. He knew her combos pretty well and knew of her strenghts and weaknesses. One of the only players I fought that didn't picked Scorpion, Smoke, Ermac or Raiden.
 
i always have trouble with good mileena players. her teleport and roll spamming are way harder to predict than smoke and scorpion spammers
 
I've faced probably two Mileena players, and they were both bad. They would do what you said, but I would punish them for it. Just dash and block. Mileena doesn't have a good close quarters game so if you can close the distance and put some combos on them you should win easily. Her teleport kick and ball roll are both easy to spot and extremely punishable.
 
Just last night I fought some guy in a KotH room who only used her and he loved her Telekick. He was actually pretty good with her as far as combos go, too.

I thrashed him pretty easily and he gave a 1.0 and left. Poor guy didn't even get to see the next guy mutilate me with Cage.

Yea i do exactly that, then she does the roll or the tele kick on wakeup and resets the playing field, and thats the most annoying part of the match
 
I've had some nice king of the hill matches today. And u won't believe it but they took different chars. I've faced scorpion only twice in there. and an unexpected sheeva..!

Also a Mileena player was in there, but she only did some rolls and telekicks and spam sais ..punished her sry ass :)
 
Stay as close to maleena as possible at that range she's screwed her combo strings are all rather slow and easily punished
 
I've played a few that run away and spam projectiles, then
when I throw a couple they'll teleport kick. To beat them all
I had to do was fake projectile (ie duck quick and block),
they'd do their teleport kick and I'd punish them.
 
i play mileena and to answer ur question they spam that cause its really hard to do anything else. her combos are hard to pull off. its like asking a rayden player could they win a match with out the teleport or superman move.
 
The mileena I fought last Sunday was really good. It was an extremely close match and in the end they managed a victory by the skin of their teeth. I had a lot of fun unfortunately they refused a rematch like it was gonna kill their ego if they lost the next 1

It's the only thing she's good at. Her good midscreen combos deal nothing more than 30%, she's way out of the top tier. If you play a defensive style type of game, she's screwed.
I personally know Mileena is easily punishable, as both the Telekick and the roll when blocked are practically a free juggle. I used to main her but my friends learn how to play defensively, yesterday I couldn't win a match against them. Bad for them I'm good with other characters too, so.. :)
 
Mileena is my main. And her whole playstayle is about moving, and punishing.... She has no mixup game, bad at straight up projectile wars, and her two big specials... ball roll and teleport kick... are both easily punishable unless used to punish. Best way to beat Mileena is being ultra defensive and blocking appropriately ... leaving her almost no good options for attack. Then the frustration is back on the Mileena player.

My two cents.
 
Yeah, I've run into a couple. They don't appreciate it when I just block their two moves and punish the heck out of them.
 
Clearly I have a different online experience. People choose quite many different characters against me, such as Sheeva for example (who already beat me once, that player really knew Sheeva). However, Mileena is pretty weak as a regular character, let alone if she spam the same moves over and over. It's so, but so easy to counter-attack Mileena it's not even funny. I played many matches against her though...
 
Mileena is a very fun and unpredictable character to play...i mean if you know how to make her unpredictable and keep your opponent guessing most of the time ;) she's my main
