SCV Ivy FAQ & General Discussion

FC 1B~Bt B ~6b8 used to be guaranteed on every character pre-patch but now it isn't a combo anymore.
Pressing G and wait until Ivy turns around. Do that a couple of times in Training until you see the timing.
FC1B ~ 1B BE is a lot harder than FC1B ~ 4b8.
-- Thank you very much
 
How do you make use of 3a's stun? I typically go for 3[k] but i want to get some other players ideals of how to make use of the effect.
 
So I've finally been trying to get used to Ivy's more special combos... FC1(B)B G Dash 1B BE 6B8 is one I find really difficult but the use of the BE here gives a respectable +16 damage compared to following with 6B8 alone. Oddly enough doing this for FC1B only gives +8 damage.

FC1B G 1B BE 6B8 = 86 dmg, 78 without 1B BE. 8A+B(B) instead of 6B8 does 88.
FC1(B)B G dash 1B BE 6B8 = 83 dmg, 67 without 1B BE

The damage scaling is interesting to me, anyway. Ivy's BE game is one of the weakest I've encountered (only Omega's stands out as worse to me) so I'm struggling to find legit uses out of her meter aside from GI.
 
Hey guys,

can someone test the speed of 22_88(b) ? From my testing it's i25, would be nice if someone could confirm it!
It's listed as i19 in the wiki, i thought there is no way it's that fast! lol
Also 1K and 22K seem to be i25 too, the're listed as i24, so not a big deal.

Fixed. Tested with Astaroth/Aeon for confirmation:
3A (0 on hit) into 33B (i25 + sidestep) trades with 22(B)
3A on hit into 214A (i34) trades with 22K, indicating it's i24. It can also punish Aeon 1B+K on JG (-34), though 1B+K's JG frames are unreliable. 6A on block (-4) into B (i20) trades with 1K though, meaning both are i24.



Also found during testing that 1K STCs under Asta's 66A.
 
Thx for the reply!

Just tested it, 1K is solid i24 in your test, means that maybe the moves i used weren't solid FD.

Also :
  • Algol 22A (block 0)_3A (hit 0) ~ 66K (i24) - 1K trade = 1K i24
but:
  • Leixia 6B (block -8)_ K (block -8) ~ 3B (i17) - 1K trade = 1K i25
  • Leixia FC 3B (block -10) ~ 6KK (i14)_BB (i14) - 1K loses = 1K slower i24
  • Leixia FC 3B (block -10) ~ 2B (i15) - 1K trade = 1K i25
  • Algol BB (hit +4) ~ 2B+K (i28) - 1K loses
  • Algol B (hit +2) ~ 2B+K (i28) - 1K wins
  • = 1K i25
I had also some testing with Raphael where i got i25 too.
It's been the same in Sc4, sometimes it was 1F more or less depending on what moves you were using.
I know of course that moves become 1F slower at tip, but it wasn't the case. I don't understand...
Thats why i'd like to have build in FD for SC.
 
This happen to me as well, it was during the first few weeks of the game release. Anyway I could never replicate this so I never bother to upload it. Like yours, the unblockable is guaranteed.

3A stun leads to legit 50/50s. For example, CE or FC 1B. Or 33/33/33 with CS, A+G, or FC 1B ;]. On rare occasions the stun combos with 2A, giving you about 40 damage and +8. 3A is definitely underrated.
