      This goes beyond "blocking" it's a very advantageous set up ror Blanka, and even if you lab it for hours like many people here on YT and Twitter said, it's still very beneficial for Blanka offense wise.
      Mena just wants to keep Blanka as it is and the "go to lab" excuse isn't going to solve the set up completely for those who play against him.

    This video only covers the specific setup people are talking about on Twitter, there are a lot other setups he can do other than OD air ball, that include lows overheads throws command grab hop, etc I think it's funny that the solution people are giving to blanka level 2 is give blanka free damage, and even if you take the throw level 2 is still active, and to add to it you can't super or drive reveal the ball loop block string

    236236.P (SA 1), DR 6.HP/OD [2]8KK
    Broke it down in the parts I practiced, you need to make sure to delay the second [2]8LK (light up ball) so that Blanka does not go in the opposite direction, wait for the opponent to fall enough to the correct side or wait until Blanka is facing the right direction on the ground.
    Also set the dummy to wake up 4 frame/throw to test it works.

So, i don't think there's a definitive answer for this mixed up because it's a 50-50. Either you guess right and get out from the corner or you guess wrong and die from the doll x roll combo.

    My only problem with the whole conversation around things like this is. A vast majority of players are going to gravitate towards Ken, Luke and or JP. To act like to win, with Ken or Luke, takes anywhere near the amount of time to recognize diverse situations is equivalent to someone like Blanka, is an out right Lie.
    Not going to say Blanca might not need some toning down. But I don't believe the hate coming from the Lily's, Zangeifs, Kim's, etc...

Switched Manon, felt like I learned more, but also took the polar opposite character. Dug deep into Marissa, had hella fun. Now I'm playing Blanka, and enjoying the multitude of opportunities to maximize in any given situation. Highest character was diamond 5. Not going to act like what I say is based upon high-level gameplay, but I also feel like most m************ are complaining from the same spectrum.

    Just take the throw, this is why Kakeru got thrown to death. This is a huge problem about Blanka, this character has insane damage and utility. SA2 does mad damage, can be use to extend pressure, corner carry, burn drive meter and mixup. And something people don't talk about enough is that Blanka-chan has no damage scaling, which is why it does so much damage. It extend combos on hit and create mixup and pressure opportunities on block.
    I really hope they nerf or balance Blanka better in season 2. His SA2 needs to have 1 less total activation(consumes more lvl2 super gauge) but maybe increase the duration. And add some scaling for every Blanka-chan hit, even a 5-10% would be nice.

    • @Vadered99
      @Vadered99 2 месяца назад

      Blanka-chan DOES have damage scaling, but it only the first time it hits, and it doesn't impact the juggle scaling at all. I would agree that the OD version should scale more if you hit them with other moves in between; if it's juggling into itself it's fine, and the meterless and level 1 versions don't allow the same kind of degeneracy.

My only hope is Capcom realizes that after they implement everything the crybabies want, they then all complain about how boring and repetitive the game is. You’d have ruined 3rd strike back then too if you could’ve. Chun Li and Yun were waaaaayyyyyy more broken and that game is still great.

    Oh man, this crying is so tiring. Just because one player is beating the tournaments... Some questions come to my mind... Why, if Blanka is broken, it's only Mena who is winning tournaments with him and not other Blanka players?? Why there's not an army of Blanka players like Juri's at tournament's top placing??

    • @skychaos87
      @skychaos87 2 месяца назад +9

      Because the player base of Blanka is low, its an ugly and unpopular character. Popular character like Ken has the highest amount of player base, so people mistakenly think he is the best character when in fact despite the highest player base even in tournament his qualifying to player base ratio is actually quite low, compared to characters like Luke, Juri, Chun Li, Guile and Blanka, which has qualifying rate disproportionately higher than its player base.
      This is why over time, pros drop Ken's ranking on the tier list and raise those like Chun Li and Blanka alot more. Also, Blanka is objectively broken in some ways, things like SA 2 giving so much utility like high damage, pressure extension upon activation, corner carry, mixups and huge drive meter burn. And Blanka-chan also not having damage scaling which results in his massive combo damage.
      I'm not saying the character is broken as a whole, but he definitely needs some balance changes. I personally think they should nerf his lvl2 a little, perhaps 2 less total ball activation but increase its duration so he can remain threatening for longer but not do as much damage, corner carry or reset. They should also add a little damage scaling for every Blanka-chan hits, a 5-10% would be good.

      What I think is happening, is that MenaRD got all of them mentally, he has an unorthodox way of playing the character and that is also why he played Birdie, cuz he is also unorthodox.
      What I think the players should do is to study MenaRD's game better and try to figure him out.

    Think they screwed him up, personally. I'd like to see him redesigned to be a bit more monster-like as in the case of the previous games. They need to find a way to replace the mechanics of that doll with something else that has a similar effect.
