Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate

Well, even if they're not punishable on block, being -7 means that I should be able to get at least my own P in before the other guy can keep brainlessly mashing out his own P's. Yet I can't. That's what annoys me.

You use Ayane right? Which characters are giving you trouble? I find that Hitomi, Christie and Kasumi, for instance, can be quite "mashy" in lag due to their fast P-strings. Ayane isn't really as good as other characters for close range punch-mashing. Her quickest punches (such as P+KPP or PPP) are all high with no mids mixed in like the other 3 I mentioned. If I sense mashing, I just hit some 2P's to reset the situation to hopefully land some 4P's or 6P's.

I feel your pain though. The online lag can feel like agony at times in this game due to the need for quick reflexes. In SC5, the opponent's recovery after a blocked move is usually much larger allowing much more consistent punishes or counterattacks (not to mention no constant PPPPP's from someone like Christie -_-). On the other hand, this game is amazing offline.
 
i have troubles with Rig and Hitomi. Rig because he's super button masher friendly, and that's mostly the people that seem to play this game. and Hitomi because her PPP does so much damage and has larger hit frames for air juggles now so it makes it easier for her to hit you with that combo off a wall.

Hope you like eating lows because you won't be guarding low to block them 90% of the time from what I've seen. It's like SC IV 2-3bar. I hit a solid connection very rarely.
