Hello. I am looking to eventually become very familiar with all of the characters. I'm starting with the easier to learn characters and Patroklos is up next. I really like his style. I do well against beginners but I seem to be struggling against the average player. What I tend to be struggling with is actually hitting my opponent. Not whiffing, it just seems like everything I do gets blocked. Even the low attacks. And his grab is very short range. How do I get past my opponent's defense and deal some damage?
Another thing is I do not understand the 66B+G grab. How do I continue kneeing my opponent?
Here are my mannerisms with moves. Please tell me if I am missing a good move. I'm sure I am.
Closing distance:
- 66B followed by 66B+K followed by 236B (sometimes BE)
- 66A (sometimes BE) and I follow up with either A+B for trapping, 3B or 66B
- 22A-A followed by BB if using the guard break (Not often)
- 6B-B-B (When being rushed)
When close:
- 3B followed by 236B (sometimes BE) or 236K
- 1K followed by 3K-K for trapping.
- AA and BB
- A+B sometimes to try and counter.
Moves that I use to surprise my opponent:
- 236A-B
- 44K-K (typically after 3K-K)
- 1B followed by 1B BE if the first one connects.
Okizeme:
- 2A+B when they stand up blocking.
- 1K when rolling.
Ukemi traps:
- I don't have any.
While playing Patroklos, I struggle the most against Nightmare, Siegfried, Astaroth, Yoshimitsu and Mitsurugi.
Thanks for your time.
