Maxi Video Thread

Lolo finally uploaded more matches from the tournmant. I read all your comments about the vids that were already there (like that fight against Yunsung =P ).

I will keep in mind all suggestions and I will try to adquire more experience. JB videos were really helpful, I loved the way he used side step, specially after PSL.

I need to whore more throws, specially after loops, like Aqua Snake said he does. Overall, I feel I need more experience. =P

Here they are:

The finals are the best videos, IMO. There are other videos called "free games", but they are not that worthy, less entertaining than the "warming up" video. You can also find the losers finals (find a BT B+K tech roll trap at the final match).

...I wonder if PSL 4 and PSL 5 have any solid value in high level play.
I would say that "it's worth checking out", but in my case it's not really true. The more I play, the more I avoid PSLs and WL like the plague because it doesn't seem to help me at all. (And since PSL 4 and PSL 5 are such terribly awful "defensive" tools in general, I don't really see why one would use anything else than the WL canned mixups.)
Edit: Of course it makes Maxi much less predictable. But the risk is much greater too.


And Lolo and Fhwoarang made really stylish and impressive matches, nice as always.
 
wow the koreans just let maxi run wild. and the maxi does ch 3B to a wall splat, then does nothing but psl1 up to him and lets him okemi without attacking.
 
all right I finally made something. This isnt my play at my best but its pretty good. It be better if you played it with the sound off cause its got me cussing and other background bull crap. Go ahead and start the ripping, Im ready for it.




sorry bout the quality, we more or less started recording as a joke but turned out they wernt half bad. dont hurt me!!!
 
holy shit we play similar. O.o like really similar. ill try and get sotirislive (one of my mates) to do some recording (its online but with so little lag its not noticable really (2-3 frames GIing and JIing still very easy to do in it)

cant wait to have a few rounds against you, hurry up and fix your xbox herpies.

few places you play differnt to me it would be fun, and watch for your 33B CH PSL1~RCA 236A is better combo i think. but your soul loop to HAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUGE THUNDER KICK OF DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM is always good for a giggle.

and 4BBK O.o wow mitsu needs to start ducking he ate that all day.
 
33B CH PSL1~RCA 236A is something Ive been trying to hit confirm for a while now. I thought you had to do 33bA RCA after that 33B ch. Is there enough time to psl1 it???? I guess so or you wouldnt have mentioned it.....lol, I will have to check that out.

Ive also been working on trying to hit confirm the thunder kick after 33B as well, thats a work in progress.

I had a feeling you and I played simular after that day in java chat. Im not suprised.

Mitsu has his 2KB that he likes to use, so I got pissed one day and said "oh yeah, I got a 2KB to!!" and he falls for it like 99% of the time. Maxi's 2KB works quite well....at least against my mitsu buddy....lol

Dave, After the CH 33b just PSL1 into RC and then do the RC A. You don't need to do anything else. Thanks for the vids! A few things:
After CH LO BK, you are missing the 2B+KB
Too much RO A...especially after CH 3B. Try using R0 B -> RC B or RC K. IT does way more damage. If you accidentally RO A, then you can PSL into RC or LO for better damage/wakeup.
Try GI'ing after blocked RC A
Need more 66b4
Need more kicks
After GI, try throwing or 4A+B
After 33A followup with A+Bg
Hope these help!
 
gonna add a little bit:

  • cut down on BB~stuff, and AA~stuff
  • punishing 2KB = B+K for hella dmg
  • punishing 66BB = 6A+B if you're close enough, or WS A~stuff (you can even step 66BB in between hits),
  • if you choose to GI 66BB, you have three good options: 6A~stuff, or throw for fast options, and 4[A+B], 66B+K for your slow option.
  • mitsu is seriously linear, step (to your) left to avoid B&B moves (and even mixups) altogether.
  • PSL4 works fine (avoiding interrupts) in moderation as well.

hope that helps!
 
of course that helps. I never really thought to punish 2KB with B+K stuff. thats genius.

4[A+B] im a little hesitant on, cause My buddy knows that one and knows how to get me out of it. I will usually try to punish post GI with 6A stuff, I like to keep the pressure on, its the risk I take. Throws make me start back at neutral and I like to keep flow going. All though throwing is probablly my best bet.

I do appreciate all the input guys....keep it coming!!
 
after CH LI K you did BB LO BK string, only the BB will hit and they can just block. i just go for the easy 4B LO BK 2B+KB or B+KBBBA. but great looping. mitsu seemed good at blocking BL KK and RC KK, the rest of the stuff you had his head fucked up. he was just watching you work, lol. good job on GIing his 66BB, but you could have also GIed his 11_77BAB which he seemed to throw out alot even on block.
 
after LI K I usually try to do B+K BBBA stuff, when you see the BB string its because I didnt let maxi go back to neautral and I was to fast.

That mitsu is good at blocking everything. He and I know wach other to well and we both have good defences against each other. Which is way you see more basic strings and combos from both of us because anything more than that we will punish each other badley. Our game is what we call a "bait and hook" type style. Throw something out see if it gets blocked or hits and go from there. we try to keep it really simple.

I do need to work on my GI game. 66BB is something I can feel comfortable GI'ing, I just need to work on his other stuff. Some of it I feel I can get a better advantage on block (which is probablly wrong) which is why I dont GI to much!! But thanx for the compliments, Ill work on my GI game
 
yea most of the stuff i know you already know anyway. for me 11_77BAB is real easy to GI the last hit because because its so telegraphed, and maxi needs all the help he can get. yea i get BB sometimes to when trying my B+K BBBA. once trick i have used for getting the JF version is mapping another B button underneath the standard one and rapping the shit out of them alternating then just timing the A, and i get every B JF and sometimes the A.
 
OK watched the vids.
You play a very very risky maxi. You're also a bit too aggressive. There's much to comment about it, but for now most advice i can give right now is definitely tone it down a few notches, and focus more on your basics. Like step, post GI, knowing your range, which attacks should be limited, which u should eliminate, combos, hit confirmation, neutral attacks etc. Mitsu was letting u get away with all sorts of murder, it seemed like he was caught in online mode :)

  • 6A hit sorta sucks since the frames are the same as 3B on block. fast option you wanna do B+K, or if you can't do that just take 3B RO A.

    mitsu isn't that linear if he uses 66A and bA a decent amount. 3A will sometimes run counter at close range

    dave:
    way too much RO A and BL B
 
btw post GI B+KBBBA is maxi's best option

And vs Mitsu's 66BB just step to your left and do sidethrow or B+KBBBA, you might even get 236K if u fast.

Thats all you got? I made these vids in hopes to get some real input on what to change and what to keep. And all you give me is "youre risky and should change some stuff, but Im not gonna tell you what." lol...im just kidding. But in depth input from you and a few other key maxi players is really what I was wanting.

So at the advice of ArmLeg, Genver and a few others, I implimented quite a few of the suggestions that I got last night, and got my match on last night. I was able to get that 33B hit confirm for the LO K DOWN. If you asked me NOT to do it now I would have an issue. Also thanx to twiggy I can mix that up with PSL1 RCA. but LO K version does more damage. So Ill stick to that mostly.

So I made more vids last night with my new improvments. I got over an hour of footage so I gotta edit it. So all the tips I have been getting so far are not going in vain. They are being put to good use so I greatly welcome all I can get.

And as for you nikklez.......Im dissapointed in your lack of helpfulness. You are usually the first to jump on something like that. Quit being lazy and help a brotha out....love you like a fat kid loves cake
 
Dave, you gotta use the master's time wisely. :) Try making all the changes Tiamat, genver, and I suggested and I think you'll be in a better position to take advantage of Johnny's expertise.
 
Ive made some of those changes. Im still working on proper post GI application. So far Im just going with a throw. But B+K BBBA I want to work on I think I might get away with that, but 4[A+B] and 6A+B I dont think I can get away with with this particular opponent. But is something I will not rule out. I was more or less just giving him a hard time. I meant nothing by it.

I got more vids that will be up in the next few days. It shows me implimenting those tips and hopefully more can be drawn from them. Im tired of being a "somewhat better than average" maxi player
