maxi video thread
Generally, gotta work on your basics. 3K, 33K, 33A, 2KK, 44AB were all absent. Basic solid moves to use.
Gotta be more patient as maxi, we sometimes get carried away with the offense, although it worked in your case as your opponents haven't gotten accustomed to Maxi yet.
Attacks like 6A+B must be used carefully, as they are very high risk. If you want a TC that's safe, use 1B and 2A, 44AB also but a lil riskier. When you're sure of the high coming then u can use 6A+B. It's a matter of your level of certainty.
4BBK and 4B LO K is all fine and dandy, but you gotta mixup your stuff after 4B hit and on block as well cuz they were freezing after 4B anyway. Variety is good. Also you gotta watch your spacing, many times you started 4B out of range, i guess u were confident that nothing would stop your LO B or LO K followup haha. It's an unnecessary gamble imo, spacing is almost everything when it comes to maxi. Makes him HELLA difficult to deal with his strings. Mid range is ideal. One more thing, the Kick of LO AK is unsafe, use with discretion (it did work in this case though :p)
You have to be VERY careful when you use Maxi's WS attacks, they're more for punishment than anything else. It's better to mix your regular attacks after say 2A hits on CH, 1A on hit etc. Throws and mids such as 44K, 33K are much more productive, and risk free.
I liked your A+Bg usage and 6A usage, i really should start using 6A more.
vs NM
RO B(CH) guarantees RC B
Any attack that puts NM into NSS just do 2A it solves all problems, u don't even need to think just 2A him. So WS blocked just do 2A. Due to repeated foward momentum in repeated NSS [A], 3K and 2A will interrupt between hits. Don't worry about the range, duck for a few frames and do FC A, it'll hit in most circumstances.
Don't waste 6A+B -> BL B combo damage, gotta take your shit, for taking that risk
9K -> 33bA -> RC A is the stronger combo than 66B+K
Punish his GS A, AA and BB will do. AA on hit, NM can't interrupt RC A.
Gotta get those RC KK:K just frames down pat. It's imperative that u do.
Taimat's inexperience vs Maxi was PROMINENT in these vids. It's the only reason why u won ;) Regular A+B is hella unsafe, and it's really no point in ever doing it. Even if A+B hits on CH.
vs Yoshi
Duck any high, and u get WS A. Quick, easy, dirty.
The GI happy yoshi in general wasn't playing well at all though, so i won't comment much on this. You were getting away with all kinds of murder here.
Not shabby for a one month old Maxi, much room for improvement, Maxi is a complexed character to use proficiently after all. Good luck and happy practicing!
