That’s because it doesn’t feel like there are many disadvantages in the character’s compatibility.Īndyroo: I dont throw the 3:7 MU card around often because I dont think its a productive mentality to have but FUCK ME no match up gave me more nightmares than Zas vs Siegfried. If I look for 4-6 MU, I can’t think of anything other than the match between Raphael and Astaroth.
Before Nightmare was buffed, I thought he and Siegfried had a close 3-7 disadvantage, but now it doesn’t make any sense. NM 2 – 8 Sieg (If NM is “mass product” version otherwise, it’s 5 – 5)ĪkeoPo: I don’t think there are any MUs with 3-7.
Is there any MU in SC6 you consider “really bad” (let’s say 3-7 or worse)? Kilik and Sophie can deal with the whole cast. Shen Yuan: Kilik, Sophie, Mitsu vs the rest. There is a damage discrepancy in the favor of Cervantes, but Geralt’s easier access to low commitment long range pokes evens this out. This is a matchup I played a lot in the past, and it plays really heavily off of both character’s understanding of movement, and how it can be used both offensively and defensively. If I really had to pick one matchup, I would probably say Cervantes vs Geralt comes to mind. But I’m not sure if I’d say that’s intrinsic to Mitsu and Voldo. I’ve always really enjoyed watching Skyll and Yuttoto play each other, as I think those matches are a really pure expression of Soulcalibur fundamentals. It has resources for very specific situations, so it requires a lot of skill from the player to adapt to each MU properly. Karolkjx: I think that Hwang in general demands a lot from the player, he is a very complex character. Everyone has some sort of trick or gimmick. I don’t think there’s a clearly honest character. In general, I think he has the worst MUs, like we’ve seen in the UFL event with Mitsurugi/Setsuka. So anytime these characters fight eachother, there is very little forced mixups or guesses going on outside of grabs and they all have ways of playing around neutral without needing to default to one or two moves to break neutral every time they’re in range.įanlee: I believe Mitsurugi is the character that needs the most skill to make a comeback. Is any MU between these characters in this list are the highest expression of skill The characters are, Sophitia/Cassandra/Cervantes/Geralt/Kilik/Tira/Xianghua. I feel like the way I’d best describe it. Alot of their strengths come from calculated reads and conditioning which when pulled off correctly shows the skills of the player and Groh vs any of these MUs would be a good match to watch for clear decision making.Įnders J: I think the MU that is most skill-based is a tough question to answer. They can function in similar ways being neutral heavy characters with good containment. I think this is the case for all MUs.Īndyroo: From my Groh perspective Id say a match up such as Geralt, Zas, Cervantes and Hwang. Btw, after so many patches and developments by players, I think there is no low-rewarded character.ĪkeoPo: To be honest, I don’t think there is an honest MU in this game.Įach character has a lot of good skills, so if you make a mistake, you can end up losing one-sidedly. The concept mentioned above is just an overall environment, so there will be few exceptions. And all the high-rewarded characters do are waiting for one shot or making guesses, which leads to the condition that mid-rewarded ones have to make tons of correct decisions to keep up with the HP of the high damage characters. The knowledge contains not only spacing but also frame-punishes, whiff-punishes for high attacks and slow recovering moves, and specific stances. Which current SC6 MU do you consider to be most skill-based (and/or honest) and why? No mirror matches, please!ĥ75: In the current patch, I assume that mid-rewarded characters fighting against high damage characters (NM, Astar, Sieg, Talim, Maxi etc) to be the skill-based MUs.īecause the player that uses mid-rewarded characters should have lots of knowledge to deal with the high-rewarded ones.
Also this time, changed our respondents so we get different points of view! For this, we have 575, AkeoPo, Andyroo, Enders J, Fanlee, Karolkjx, Linkorz, and Shen Yuan answering today!Īs usual, we have got three main regions represented – but this time, with different players! In the fifth installment of game meta series, we focused on the Character MUs and how they are in their current state.
