I think you may just be bad. everyone can apply huge pressure on him, and if you are cornered you have at least one get out of jail free card (burst). Just dont hug him to try to stay away of the grab.

@@bmack6743 There's a reason why Potemkin isn't good and thats because his matchups are ass. He loses to Bridget 6-4, Testament 6-4, Axl is suffering, Chaos is SUFFERING, the Goldlewis match is actually unplayable because you don't have airdash to escape corner, Nagoriyuki gets his win condition way too easily against Pot and Pot's only decent matchups are against the Balanced Characters, May, Bedman and Giovanna. He doesn't have defensive options. His fastest button is 5 frame 5P which whiffs on half the cast's dash. Back megafist can be called out way too easily despite getting off the ground on frame 3. HPB FPRC kara Buster is his only reversal and even then no player below Celestial will be able to pull that off consistently and *even then* kara buster can be beat by button into button or multi hitting moves. His backdash has fast startup but its overall speed is very slow. There's a reason Potemkin isn't good in this game and its literally because his defense is ass. Compared to Leo? Leo has H flashkick which hits from a mile away, is safe with meter and goes directly into 236H for backturn. Grab goes into backturn for immediate pressure. His buttons are super nice for ground based neutral despite his aerial buttons not being as powerful. 2D is airborn and yet low profiles half the moves in the game. Guardpoint H[S] or S[H] is a fantastic anti-air and calls out a ton of bs when Leo is running corner pressure. I don't need to talk about Brynhildr at all because you know how broken 5 way mix off of HKD is. There's a reason why Leo is always high tier while Potemkin doesn't quite reach as high.

POTEMKINGS, WE ARE SO BACK

@just_smilez Жыл бұрын

If I had to make a list, I'd put it as: -poor abare; best options are either highly committal or prone to whiffing. Offense is highly reliant on meter, but he may feel obligated to keep some in reserve due to a reliance on system mechanics for defense. -committal neutral. 5h is whiff punishable, megafist and hammerfall are both incredibly risky without meter to force rps. Slidehead is relatively easily punished with an air dash on reaction by most of the cast. fS and 5P can be low profiled when trying to stuff approaches (hell, several dashes can go under 5P). 5K is pretty solid, though. - low mobility means he cannot punish certain playstyles like other chars. There is no dashing up to punish a jacko who is waiting on minions to refresh. - some might debate this, but I'd argue that outside of garuda oki, he faces the same primary issue as some others in that strike/throw is the weakest form of mix due to a need to potentially stagger the strike to catch fuzzy guard. - meter reliance, while struggling to build meter. Pot is potentially one of the most meter-hungry characters in the cast, relying on it to cover his weaknesses and create incredibly oppressive pressure, but he does not have long blockstrings, and cannot safely throw buttons in neutral without great care to avoid tension balance decay. As a result he can struggle to build the resources he needs to create his pressure.

@uwabamiJohnny Жыл бұрын

Yup, that was a great analysis. There's a reason why Snake Eyez fishes for gold burst so much. Pot with meter is super scary, and Pot has enough health to take advantage of burst coming back when you get hit.

@just_smilez Жыл бұрын

@@uwabamiJohnny agreed. It's risky, because pot has trouble getting out of pressure (especially in some matchups where there's no guarantee burst comes back before you die -- some characters can murder pot off of two bad interactions), but what impresses me about snake more than his setups and conversions is his understanding of neutral and what the opponent wants to be doing -- he's good enough at knowing when to hit a button to stuff offense that he can get away with trading burst for meter. It might not be the flashy part of his play, but I'd argue that's probably the biggest factor in what makes him a strong potemkin

@AgatonSax750 Жыл бұрын

Delaying strike to catch fuzzy jumps is not a weakness I think. He's good at it too.

@just_smilez Жыл бұрын

@@AgatonSax750 The primary weakness of it is the fact that you can't time cS to both beat mash and catch fuzzy backdash on oki. You can time the strike to catch both immediate mash and immediate backdash, but that can be as tight as a 1f window on some chars, and will lose to immediate jump back (throw will lose to all three). It's part of why some pots will route for lower damage in a way that lets them get garuda oki, where fuzzy is taken out of the equation. The other issue is just that it's a massive PITA to properly confirm into a backdash catch route off of cS. BnB routes typically still work, but ideally you're doing everything you can to make them fear backdashing. The reality of it is that against a competent player, throw beats do nothing and dp, turning it into a mix of strike timing, where if you're wrong you aren't putting them into a blockstring, you're eating a punish

A Bridget main pointed this out to me, but like, Hammerfall is punished by a well timed grab. So, I would have to say that Pot's biggest issue is that you have to either grab the glue, or keep a bucket of the stuff on hand to bury your face in.
