I stopped using iMCF altogether as a stand alone move.
It's use does not benefit my gameplay unfortunately. I just use it after an Ear Slicer to get a good damage combo.

I didnt use it cuz I recently changed from pad to stick, so my iMCF execution rate went from like 95% to like .2%..... im so freeeeeeee...

Hi 8wayrun ! I've got some questions regarding B cancelling as a backstep : Is it really useful, and why would i use it over a simple backstep ? How do you perform it : do you cancel at the last possible moment or do you spam bG very quickly ?

We can no longer be friends.
But you were hitting Earslicer with no problem. It's basically the same notation... o_0

I was pretty disappointed with the lack of iMCF. The combo potential is still there if you get RCC down and it's still an i10 TC and when doesn't that have a use? That being said, excellent work to both of you for going that far with Yoshi and proving he still has some juice.

My execution sux
I ghettofy the mess out of the parting thrust input. slide the last two buttons to get it.
So the last two buttons look like:
A
B+K
I gotta find a way to ghettofy the mess out of iMCF.
On pad I disregarded parting thrust altogether, so its like I switched parting thrust for iMCF :/
Stupid me.
P.S. I failed at quoting..im new at this stuff dont judge lolol

My biggest problem, I think, with getting iMCF consistently is making sure I'm hitting 2 and only 2. If I slide even a bit to 1 or 3, it won't come out, so it's really all in tightening up the motion. []

Hi, this is my first soul game, and ive been maining yoshimitsu since i got it i ive played this game for a week now, and im at c5 rank, im actually doing fine with my current strategy holding a steady 50% win rate. but i fear that when i get higher it just aint going to work
Atm i mainly use 6K,K cus alot of times ppl block the first kick and then comes charging at me but then the second kick smacks them to the ground.. surpringsignly sometimes they keep charging me after the 1st kick.
I also look for opportunities to pull off somekinda combo, or a MED attack, i usually go for 88K->3B->a:B+K->9B+K,K
or MED K-> 8A -> A+B in the direction of the enemy untill im over them, then i buddha drop or B whereafter i MED B (last part aint a combo but i often get some damage out there)
im having a real hard time doing mixups cus i dont know which attacks to use.
I also poke a bit with B,B or A,A
But im having a hard time against opponents who puts pressure on me, cus the only way i answer is block -> 6K,K sometimes B,B.
What im really searching is to have more pokes in my playstyle, and some mixup tips

You need alot more iMCF use against Maxi... iMCF/a:B+K are great against him...
Just know I still hadnt played with yoshi in about a week when we played lastnight... As I said Maxi has easily taken that main spot... Yoshi is fun against people that duno how to fight against him properly...

Yeah your Maxi is killer...I haven't had a lot of practice against him, since nobody in my area mains him.Will have to do so. But it's all good practice, so I never mind losing a match. []

iMCF/a:B+K/3K/2a/2K/2B/a,a/b,b/k/6b/44bB/bA are all you need for pokes
Mix ups consists of alot of stuff with yoshi... Standing on the ground mix between FC 3K, 4K,B... 3B.. DGF k or B SDGF throws, B, or A Fakes with 44B+K,B+K or 44B+K,2B+K fakes with 9A+B,B+K, fakes with 9B+K,{K}
That should help you expand some more...

Nah you cant get better unless you lose...
My yoshi is killer too ;) LOL at first you were just so random it was hard to get adjusted to the things you were throwing out... after about 4 matches you were locked in though haha gg's though...

yeah...also started to get a bit tired. Plus I think the game just sometimes hates me...last night, even playing other PGH people, I'd input a CE and it would just do nothing....irritating...maybe I'm subconsciously doing something wrong...practice, practice practice. If you ever need a punching bag, gimme a message. []

Yea I wish PS3 users had mics like XBL people... thats usually why I like XBL better... its easier to talk and discuss strats and shit, I got a mic for PS3 but it just feels weird as fuck hanging on my ear, its like im worried about it falling off the whole match LOL
You were good bro, you just need some more mix up ideas and some better stepping... Plus I know yoshi like a book so it isnt like you can do much of anything I dont know about LOL that always helps...
Anytime Im on hit me up if you want to play...

At the risk of further derailing this thread...word. Plus, I actually like that PSN doesn't use as much mic, since it only slows down play and encourages 5-year-olds with potty mouths to shout endlessly....[]

You can execute iMCF with 2a:B+K, so just do what you'd normally do for Parting Thrust and press down as you input the A.
RedDjinn
Dat Hillbilly
LOL only retards do that... Good players discuss strats, help each other out, give tips here and there, I just dont like playing without one because unless you see your mistakes, you cant ask what your doing wrong or anything...
I actually have yet to play a screaming idiot in this game... Although there are many more ragequitters on PS3 it seems. and I have got more rage msgs LOL guess thats what you get when u dont use a mic...
This thread cant be derailed... its general discussion.

My self i use the 8B+K,K into DNK i mean not sure if thats a YOSHIMITSU HAS TO DO THAT MOVE kinda thing but i use it alot
The stance 8B+K has alot of mix up u can K(Low)->DNK or just do a B if they start to block low
If u start seeing that they are guessing everything just after u get into the 8B+K stance go 8B+K,B
That will give u a unblockable that pretty damn fast and high damage
412A is a DNK set up too
Add that to ur Mix up tips bruh

I'll try and cover the Maxi match-up sometime. Knowing Maxi's strings and how to JG the last hit from a two-string is really important. I haven't kept up with Maxi, so someone should confirm.
I believe it's RC AB. Safe on block against Yoshi. The easiest way to access it in training is to have your training dummy AAAB. JG the last B and punish with 6K. If you can JG on sight, you just took away a major Maxi tool. You can also teleport around it and punish with a back / side throw, 3B combo, or CE.
Oh, and punish Maxi's CE on block with 4KB. It doesn't look like it connects, but it does. I think Yoshi's CE also connects, but I don't remember. Was doing a lot of testing the other day and didn't take notes.
