Yoshimitsu Web Theater.

Hajime, come to Cannes2k11, since you are sure you will beat me i will gladly support you with 50-100 bucks, you just have to win them in a MM :) Its your call!! Is there ANY chance you can come? Bring Hates with you so i can kick his ass, too :) And im willing to support you with 50 bucks even without a MM :) Just make sure you come....you will be suprised by the level of random french players who are absurd good...remember people who dominated the east coast for a while didnt even pass the pools :)
 
All I know is if you go over there Hajime you better bring yo big boy britches ;) Good lord DTN, KAYSONA, DINA, SAITOH, and KEEV are only 5 people but damn it would be nice to practice with them every day... Dudes mitsu is aggressive as hell, KEEV well shit his nightmare is beast, DTN ive already described, I actually think hes one of the better out of them all, His defence and spacing is def. the best, He punishes well with 6K2K too... SAITOH is just solid both with cassy and asta.. and Dina well he speaks for himself but fuck sophy lol I feel sorry for anyone playing Team France...
 
Doc & Furzy: While your offers are EXTREMELY generous, I have to politely decline. I truly appreciate it. Perhaps you can convince Hates to go. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to spend that kind of money to go play Calibur. I am planning a trip to Europe next year with my wife, but I'm not sure I'll have luggage space to bring my stick (makes me wish I was a pad player sometimes!). Although, I would definitely destroy you Doc. ;) One day we'll have to settle it. hehe.

Red: 11A gives enough advantage that 3AB (hit confirm that CH 3A) beats everything an opponent throws out. They can still step the 3A, but they CANNOT interrupt it. 33B's TC window is near the beginning of the move and can be done on reaction if you expect a high horizontal from an opponent (e.g. Cervy 66A).

Also, I've beaten some of the French players who came for Nats. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to play Saitoh when he came out for EVO.

Furzy guard lol ^^

I can't really see how staying out of range would help yoshi beat Ivy, more like it would help him survive, but fine, i'll try it next time. Even more curious to see the vid of Hajime VS you now. What was the score btw?

About 44bB, yeah you told me at E.B.O too and you're probably right, i'll try that too. Thanks for the advice! Will you be at Kayane's session on 10th of october? I think I might come, so I can try this new stuff on you :p

I agree with Malek in this one, recovery frames after missed long ranged Ivy move, gives Yoshi time enough, after playing with Malek a lot in Denver, I felt like I was doing something wrong, and i was always trying to rush on him, even tough I knew a couple on anti Ivy moves like the 44bB to catch her out of her 9B, I didn´t had any strat at all, but really, is wise to stay at distance, learn to punish her properly and Yoshi can and most importantly, good step G, of course it helps a lot if you have good reflexes.

Anyway, I might be going to World Cup, hope to meet all these skilled french players.

@lolo: I really hope you can make it to Cannes! :)
 
wohooooo, you won one FTF against Malek, nice. Now could you please tell me how i can beat this character? Ivy is going to break my neck in Cannes again, i know it :)

And BAM against Akiru, guess our training ws worth it, a pity you didnt play Kira!

And what happened against Keysona?
 
Im 100% sure Keysona played super aggressive, but we have a local player here that plays very similar to Keysona, so i thought Furzy will do a bit better against...

Yeah at last I finally won against Malek :) I used 44bB to force him not to use 8gB or 8K. Other than that, just be extra careful of linear moves you would normally do, against Ivy's step, it's suicide. And of course, don't rush stupidly, punish her moves, etc. No special trick here unfortunately.

Against Akiru yeah, your Setsuka definitely helped there ^^ And SDGF is so f***ing broken against her, it's very helpful :) He also tried in training mode to step it, and just like you, it seems it connects sometimes even when he steps perfectly :D

I'm pretty disapointed against Keysona, I really thought I would do better considering Bun's style (our local Mitsurugi player) is pretty similar to Keysona. But you know, I ate too many Relic K, 2KB, one or two unblockables and what?… It's already 5-1?? Damn…

Also Dina is insanely strong now with sophitia too, he raped Malek 5-0 the first day, then Malek raped him back 5-1. They did one last FT5, 5-3 for Dina.

And Keev is just Keev lol ^^
 
yeah i need to see Dinas Sophitia, impressive results! Akiru needs to use my just wait and try to run away tactic, but on the other hand sometimes it seems i have a lot more trouble than Cliff against SDGF, Cliff just steps into 88B....thats it. Maybe its Kiliks Step, hitbox...i dont know^^or i am just to stupid sometimes....
 
Sophitia is a beast. I cant see why people arent placing high with her. As long as you know the matchups she simply rapes living shit out of everybody.
 
People are placing high with her.... Ramon has won like 6 tourneys already lol Dina has won as well I'm sure, Im sure he will do very good at Cannes this year... Sophy is so easy to play with... 236236B on CH to 236236: B :4 is just too much damage for a safe move to throw out...
 
Hey Seyfer,

watched your clips. There are a lot of points when you seem to be messing around, going into meditation randomly right in front of your opponent etc. Usually a bad idea practically but it can be fun, I do it also when not playing seriously.

Just a couple of basic comments since I'm not qualified to give top level advice. Many times when you blocked a string from your opponent that left you crouching you used WR B. This move isn't great. It's linear and high. Since your opponent was giving you the initiative, you should have done a mixup. From crouch, a very easy mixup to do is FC3K/4KB. In general I would have used FC3K more often because the major downside of that move is that its very punishable on block, but your opponent wasn't punishing a lot of things. As opposed to using 6K2K to mixup; this is a bad idea because the opponent sees the mid first and has plenty of time to block the low. Also 6K2K is disadvantage even on hit (whereas FC3K is knockdown on hit). I think using FC3K alone would make a big difference and let you damage him much faster. You used step and grab btw really well in the second video. However using FC3K makes you more of a threat from range.

Another really bad idea (although he didn't make you pay for it) is throwing out 3AB when you have advantage. 3AB is not a combo, it only combos on counterhit. So, if your opponent is just ducking and you 3AB him, you still won't launch him in the air. 3AB when blocked allows him to hit you with pretty much any move he wants for free. 3AB you should use only if you think you can get it on counterhit. If you don't think he's going to attack and you want to try to launch him, use 3B as at least that way it launches on normal hit. I wouldn't do that either though, I would use more 33B B+K. You used 33B a few times but didn't follow up, the B+K combos and is free damage. I also like 4KB as a mid more than 3B, it's somewhat unsafe but you can play a lot with when you release the B. You used 66B which is also a decent mid, slow but safe and good damage, however you shouldn't go into intimidation after with 66 so often. If it's blocked, I think that your options aren't fast enough to avoid getting launched.

Nice video though, lots of nice GI and step and way to make use of SDGF K:K!

Thanks, is the lesson I needed. I just started with Yoshimitsu and I still have much room for improvement. I will consider your words.
 
Consider everything stickied in the yoshimitsu Directory that should be everything you need to know ;) I cant watch the vids cause I'm at work but you dont need my critique anyways, nobody can really tell you how to play yoshi, hes your own character and almost everyones has their own style, thats the cool thing about this guy...
 

Che boludo, bien jugado, saludos desde México, si puedes, busca mis videos en youtube, mi cuenta de yt es vegasan9.
