@AedanWolfe - Thing is, Im not even playing online yet, still need to get some points together for the Online Code. Im just trying to practice all-round ready for when I can go online, was just wary of being a Noob in the eyes of players for simply being good with Smoke. Thanks for the answer man :3
Hey buddy, It will be good fun when you get your code. As for using a certain character that people consider nooby, well I say just use who you enjoy playing as. Doesn't really matter what other people think.
Hey all, I've recently decided to start playing as smoke.
I tried to use one of the x-ray combos...I don't know if its just me (I'm not good at intricate combos and timing etc) but I couldn't do it
So I decided to tweak it a bit to make it a little easier for myself. Now I'm doing X, Triangle, Smoke Bomb, X-ray. Sometimes the timing of the X-ray doesn't go through, or it won't respond @_@.
Any tips to get better at combos with smoke?
Hey there,
First off let me start by saying instead of X, Triangle (3,2) you could do more damage by instead using X, Down+Square, Triangle (3,D1,2). Wait until they've fallen a bit and then connect the Smoke Bomb.
Now, the important part: WAIT UNTIL YOUR OPPONENT APPEARS IN THE AIR UNTIL YOU DO THE X-RAY. It needs to be about half a second until you use the X-RAY attack and it should connect.
Hope I helped
Literally Just tried this out, and it works great o-o Only problem is my fingers sometimes slip mid-combo, because I'm excited that I'm doing it right xD But thanks! It did help, alot!
No problem at all! I'm glad I could help a fellow Smoke user!
As you practice that 3,D1,2 you should be able to eventually juggle it up to 3 times before throwing the Smoke Bomb, netting you about 40-44% damage. It took me about 2 hours of practice, but it's totally worth it.
Keep up the good work!
Yeah I can agree with you. Haha when I'm playing as Smoke I'm such a meter whore :S can't get enough of it. You'll rarely see me comboing into X-RayThat is a super flashy combo, but I don't think it should be ever be used if using the X-Ray doesn't guarantee you the victory.
Imho using Smoke is better to save the meter for Ex Moves and breakers...what do you think?
Decided to take smoke
Out onto the online play tonight. I had a lot of fun owning people. Checked my messages at the end of the night and pretty much were all callin me a pussy and a one trick pony. Am I playing the toon wrong? I watched Tom bradys show when he covered smoke and his only recommendation was to turtle. I still tried to mix it up a little and teleport in. I dunno. winnings winning?
So I have a question: since the smoke bomb does no damage, what is Smoke supposed to do against people who just block and wait to punish a teleport? I don't think I've ever lost to Smoke, even when the other player is way better than me. I just block everything and wait to punish. I know it's lame but it works. I know you can throw them off with an enhanced teleport, but nobody's going to fall for that twice... Plus going into melee seems kinda risky, usually I can predict when they're getting frustrated and anticipate the jp or smoke towards. Personally I don't play Smoke but I'm curious.
I'm guessing the answer must be somewhere in his enhanced specials... Teleport and Invisibility especially.
Ah, that makes sense. Still sounds like you're at a disadvantage though if you have to basically rushdown with Smoke. :/
Nope, 360 sorry broAre you on PS3? If so I can show just how little of a disadvantage we're at.
Nope, 360 sorry bro
Plus I'm willing to bet you'd kick my ass, disadvantage or no
Btw it may sound stupid that I never noticed this before but I had a revelation about the Smoke Towards/Away move: it doesn't matter where your opponent is when you use it, it will always travel in the direction of the last directional input. So instead of thinking in terms of back/forward, you should think in terms of left/right when you use it. This may be useful against Raiden's teleport antics throwing off your inputs, I guess. Although dangerous if he supermans you...
