Strategy/Playstyle Discussion + general Q&A

Ah... that's going to save me a lot of gray hairs. Could you explain how it's 1/2P affected? That just... shouldn't be right, right?
 
So I don't know if this was mentioned or known already, but for 6B:B, you can get the second hit of the 'Just Input' most of the time just by mashing B repeatedly. I remember that was the input for it in SC2, and it still seems to work now. Granted that timing B for when the attack hits definitely isn't as hard as some of the other Just Inputs in the game, it's worth knowing that the mashing option is available too.
 
edx: see my guide in the tech trap section

micro: I thought you couldn't mash the JF. just have to press right after 1st hit connects or is blocked
 
I double-checked it just now and you can mash it (it has to be pretty rapid though). Mashing and precise timing work, it just comes down to which one you prefer.
 
What to do when your opp won't tech

It's already known that NM has alot of tech traps. But what do you do when your opponent won't or refuses to tech? What are good suggestions to do when you are in this kind of situation where you will get the maximum damage done onto your opponent?

Depending on stage position, you can also 236KK. It can lead to a wall combo or a ring out, if done under the right circumstances. Also, it just annoys people and makes them want to stand.

oh yeah, I forgot about the GS KK. 11B also track roll fairly well at mid range, but really no point in doing it.
 
1B vs 3B

based on my experience

1B is slow
only good on counter hit

3B is better and faster
it will launch counter or not ( except on long distance )

both are punishable on block
his NSS mostly can be stopped with 2A

so land it if you sure it will hit
example : punishing mitsu 's 2KB with 3B

don't gamble with it too much :)
 
1B vs 3B

NSS = Night Side stance

it's nightmare's stance

I think watching Tiamat ongoing strategy will help you :)
 
notnikkelz plays every damn character lol. Nah wut up man. Didn't know you dabbled in the ways of Nightmare.

Alright, after 1K's I like to go NSS for evasion. It's evasion properties are pretty wicked as long as you don't abuse it. And if someone is 2A happy against GS, I'll usually start GS A+Bing them. 2A registers as a weak attack and triggers his A+B counter. iFC WS B is nasty if you're good at ducking highs on nee-jerk reaction. Otherwise use set ups that put you into FC. And as far as 1B? I'm not a fan of it as a staple move, but is good when applied sparingly IMO. Other than that 3B has my vote simply because during NM's Soul Charge state, is a disgusting wake-up pressure tool. Also, I whore 33B LOL. TOO good. Especially after FJ A+G. And for anyone having problems getting that GS going? Just mix it up and do it fast.

To all those NM haters that say his GS is easily punishable, easier said than done. The average human cannot always react, so anticipation is what helps. But even so, if a NM player does his job right your in trouble.

Tiamat, what's up man. You're Nightmare tech vid was sweet (music choice was damn good!). Good shit bro. Keep it up! Show the community that NM is serious business. ;)
 
haha, nah i only play around 6-8 characters. I dabble in NM cuz well, he's manly. Also, you need to know your opponent to beat them so i experimented with everybody to a certain level, some more than others.

Yep! This is truth nikkelz speaks of people. Protect ya necks and learn more characters. I'm currently working on Hilde, Sets, X and Voldo.

Also, AG+A on block into GS Mix-ups. Dirty as HELL.

Edit: And yes, NM is a sexy beast.
