T6BR tier list

...aaaaaaaaand I just played 5 zero lag matches. At 3 bars. WT0_oF?!

I think it depends on who the hell is hosting. I hosted it for an hour, and all my matches had no lag (against local comp), then when an outsider played, and it was his match with somebody else in the lobby, it turned into an underwater match.

Talk about inconsistent.
 
If you haven't updated your firmware in a while, you might wanna do that. It can help with the connections and reducing lag. I had a 1-red connection with a friend before and after updating I was able to play him at a 4-green connection. Although it is a pain in the ass to update sometimes. Took me 2.5 hours cuz my firmware update got corrupted the first time. Damn Cisco .bin files had me looking for Daemon tools and that didn't even work until I realized you could just update the firmware through the setup page.

Also, Devil Jin being mid tier is nice in my eyes b/c I picked him up in the first place not b/c cuz he was so top tier, but b/c I love his wavedash mechanics. Being mid tier will stop the complaints from people about him being broken in DR. I think that title can go to Bob now, but even he isn't as broken as DR DJ so T6 is still da awesome.

Megiddo, do you play online much? Maybe we can get some DJ mirrors goin' sometime, but I know this lag will be a big obstacle. I am interested in seeing what strats or techniques we can share.
 
I hate Devil Jin's spamming FLY and lasers.

I'm not quite sure how to deal with that. I know you can duck, but I'd prefer to counter it somehow and punish them for doing it.

Fought a lagless match against a Bob today. First time I actually fought one like that. I'm not quite sure how to deal with Bob. In that match, I tried to use d/f+1 to poke and interrupt, but couldn't get it off because Bob's jabs continued to beat mine. He did the same pattern of moves over and over and I couldn't win. Just not sure how to punish the guy.

Same with Alisa. Most of my fights with Alisa tend to be really laggy matches with Alisa players zipping all over the place. I can't figure out how to sidestep the attacks and/or block them. And even when I do block them, I can't figure out how to punish them. Her jetpack stuff is supposed to be unsafe, right? So I try to turtle up and wait for mistakes to punish, but can't find them.

Somewhat annoying but a lot of scrubby online players tend to use the 2+4 throw, which means using 2 to escape. Unfortunately, it's exactly the opposite of what I've been taught when it comes to escaping throws. Not to mention, these guys don't vary their throws, which means I'm always caught in the dang throw.

Can't even remember the first tackle escape... before you're floored.
 
Windstar, I can give you some quick pointers:

DJ's FLY into unblockable: Duck it.
DJ's standing lasers: Duck it.
DJ's FLY lasers: Sidestep or sidewalk (safer) it.
DJ's lasers on recovery: Dash or wavedash (preferably if your char has it) up and punish or launch him depending on distance. The recovery is ridiculously bad so you should be able to get something in...offline that is.

Bob's pokes are really good. So don't feel bad if you feel locked down. Backdash canceling works well in general against any kind of character poking lockdown. I have more specific stuff, but it's gettin late so I'm gonna eat and maybe tackle this another time.

Alisa is the new online Lili of T6. She seems so safe cuz of lag and she has lots of abuseable lag tactics. I even started an anti-Alisa thread in TZ cuz I had trouble with her stuff. You can try looking there for some starters.

Something new I learned recently is if they tackle you, you have 2 options:

Break the tackle: Press 2.
Reverse the tackle: Press 1+2.
