Thanks for looking out for us Asuka players

Actually one of the best tutorials I've seen so far for asuka, the depth really helped me as a new player :)

This guide is amazing. I recently learned how to chain moves and make combos, so this video certainly helps with that, and other areas that I'm missing

Asuka bread and butter offense in a nutshell: Close: 1+4 (any combo, usually ones ending low, like 1+4,2,1,2,4) 3-4 (snake edge) d3+4 (the dreaded can-cans) b1+2 (strong throw) WCdf,d,df1+2 (strong throw) db1+2(rake) 1+2(trap after any combo) 1-> (combos starting with 1, multiple options), 2+3, sidestep 2, sidestep 4, literally all while-rising/while-standing. One step away: b1+4 (low/mid mixup combo), db1,2 (natural combo), df1,2 (also uf2) f2 (sparingly, unless you're good at cancelling it), db3, db4, b2 (pokes and harrass which can lead into combos on CH) b1 (excellent trap, use after combo or move that pushes enemies away on block) and finally the strongest moves in her kit: WCdf3, f1+2, b+3 (this one you should use sparingly against characters with absurd range like Noctis, they can punish!) Always : b-throw, if the opponent tries to 1-1-1-1 pressure or 1-1-mid-1-1-mid or literally any pressure combo, parry that shit.

Thx for the tips I just started playing askua and Im going to main her

Can you do video about how to punish leroy smith being Asuka

Thanks for the tips!

Really awesome video thanks dude

Go Asuka ❤️🥰

Good stuff

I wanted to put Asuka into my regular character rotation a while back because of her cool animations, but I think I got psyched out by people's opinions on her. But now, I think I'm going to just bite the bullet on that and start studying her.

Have you seen her wall combo? . It take no effort and its 3/4 of the health bar and leaves oki. She is simple. For long sessions she is my go to.

I love asuka soo mucho. They sass at the end credits must piss people off.

Wr1+2 is -2 😂😂😂 never knew this and it was kind of jaw dropping to find out hahahaha I'm surprised you didn't go over her throw game - will you do so in a separate video like how you eluded to a wall game video???

I don't think her throw game is too notable, I didn't want to make the video too bloated. I can do a throw oki video at least at some point

Hey Fergus I know this is an older video but I was wondering, is there a particular combo that is optimal for F4 ch?

Really good guide, is possible for you to develope the concept of the triangle a little more deeper? I understand this concept applied to 2d fighting, but will be great to know your two cents on this a little more in future videos.

This is just the core mechanics behind the char, I don't think anything will change too drastically

Where is Jun kazama, your Master Fergus, where?

Asuka is a cool character, but I can never get over her weird ass looking hands lol

Btw who is oscar?

Can someone summarise why her offense is generally regarded as lacking? I hear that a lot but no one really explains why? The only things that seems kinda lacking is her 1 jab range, it not being +1 on block but it has extensions to make up for that. Her df1 range feels a bit short. Her big low d1+2 has no range or tracking so is only really usable at the wall. Her main + on hit low in db3 pushes them back. Then db4 mind game requires hard reads, conditioning and hesitation from the opponent since she is at 0 on hit but it has extensions.

She's a defensively geared character, is why. Her damage is coming majorly from counter hit launches. All of her offensive tools work primarily off conditioning people to crouch so she can launch you (1+2, b3...). Her offensive strings are not hard to spot as a lot of them start with 1 jab extensions, B4 (which you use often) or the 1+4 extensions, in which you will get ducked, low parried or just blocked as it's not a real mix up - highly telegraphed due to the start up hits. The rest, such as b4 and b3 are far more defensive than offensive as their main uses are launchers or combo enders for the case of b4, 2, 3. Fully crouched DF2, and standing DB3 are the main, reliable offensive tools but you can be hop kicked out of these. Her fully crouch launch has quite bad frames - usually at best you get a knockdown and oki off most low block punishes, compared to most a number of characters who can fully launch. Her options at long range, while great if the opponent loves to push buttons, are nothing special if you are predictable or if the opponent knows you can CH launch FF3 etc. While a lot of her moves are safe on block, it can be very difficult to safely work against a defensively strong opponent. She lacks a lot of strong WS mid pressuring options - they're always extensions off highs or generic mids. If you have to approach, you're nearly always at a disadvantage compared to if you're leading the round and forcing them to approach you.

Because her lows don’t have the longest range so you can just backdash and block most of her options. Imho.

I don't get how your are supposed to apply this stuff. Nothing seems to work out for me. The range stuff like db3 or d2 seems so slow, most characters have way faster moves to cover that distance and deal more dmg. + the ch d2 is hard to pick up. The counter hit stuff in general is so hard to hit confirm. Like ff3 into fff3. Or uf3. Nothing gives you plus frames on block accept for ff1 which has like no reach and leaves you standing there like an idiot for forever on whiff. None of her strings are natural. Her 1 jab is not only minus but also hasn't got a lot of reach. Even the db4 mix up stuff gets blocked most of the time. Most success I had with this character was getting ch db43. And b3 on some chatacters. When I compare this to my main alisa. Everything is just super slow and super predictable and on top it some is even complicated like her cancels. And not very rewarding.aybe you can get into more details, analysing matches and explain a bit more why you would use certain moves in certain situations and such by example? Cause the way it is now. I did over 600 matches with her and I still haven't figured out how to really use her and just got a ton of frustration out of her.
