  • anji is one of the characters in the game that you have to approach differently and if you don't know that ahead of time then you can end up getting smoked by spin-to-win!!

      Yeah Anji sucks you don't need to change on HOW you fight him you just need to know his weakness
      1. Bad Frame data
      2. Spin TAKES 10 FRAMES before the parry is active so he can't use it on wake up.
      3 his Jump Fan has a Gap a major one unlike the Old Games the fan doesn't have a hit box until it hits the ground making this HIS only plus on block Fujin option...IF you are asleep at the wheel. Since the person you pinned told you about how bad the fan throw is. Any good player or decent player will learn the fact you can mash through it. Jump throw it, Air to air it, 6P it, Super it (prepatch characters could run forward through it)
      I main this character since the beta and he is awful he is a scrub killer for sure but past that its not that big of a change. just play normally and just keep in mind if he has 1 bar he now has a REAL wake up option which is the parry super. Out side of that you can bully him LIKE EVERYONE else. Thats how bad he is.
      Learn the match up = Anji an even worse character lol

    Something that I always seem to get confused by is that Kou is not a DP and he recovers in the air so you can't punish it like a DP. I probably get confused since the only other special moved that leave you actionable in the air are Chipp's Diagonal Alpha Blade and Millia's Kapel and those are very different character types.

    Nagiha (S follow-up) is actually the safest follow-up, mainly because of the pushback, especially if not user point-blank. Kou (P follow-up) is extra vulnerable on DP. I wouldn't dare use any other option than Nagiha on a greedy Leo for example

    @skiks3562 Před 6 měsíci

    Slight correction for an Anji player: Fujin's Slash followup is actually the safe option unless you absolutely botch the spacing because it should push you far enough away that most fast pokes can't reach you. The Punch followup is the only + on block option, with the downside being the veryu punishable gap beforehand.
    The best way to fight Anji is to be defensive and force him to attack into you first. While he has amazing tools to combo and punish hard, his ability to poke and pressure without resources are ok at best. Make him come to you.

    I'd say the worst character is Millia because I've never found anyone playing her

    Anji is good to bully your casual gg player as there's 4 Anji players in the world so if you get decent at him you can just stomp almost anyone below f10

      Lol, you've hit the nail on the head. I'm an Anji main and Floor 10 is my bane. I can knowledge check everyone below that, but once I hit Floor 10 people know how to respond to my offense almost flawlessly. I'm still looking for ways to deal with it.

      @@markclifton859 I'm stuck on F10 as well, I've gotten to the point where I just do things because I feel like it. I could be smart and respect my opponent's buttons OR I can call out them waiting for spin and just run up and grab.
