Something I really respect in your word of choice is how you refer to character strength in terms of this version of the game, meaning you obviously know a lot of the characters will be buffed and sol will be nerfed. More people in the fgc need a positive mindset that doesn't feel forced.

I know this is kinda weird to say, but I think relative to their strengths overall as characters, I-no's matchup vs Sol is better than even. As in, if Sol and I-no were tied for 7th best, I think I-no would win the matchup. Your mileage may vary.
@DXYS953 жыл бұрын
I don't know if she would win at all. Sol negates pretty much all of her tools except Stroke which, I'll admit, is pretty good against him. Chemical Love - gets low profiled by everything Sol does. It's only useful to punish Gunflame if you're close enough. Antidepressant Scale (Note) - Gets punished on reaction from full screen by Vortex because of its long startup. And even if Sol is sleeping, he can still low profile it with Vortex and hit your hover dash unless the note is as low as possible to the ground. Dives - you'll get punished 100% by Sol's 5K. Sometimes they won't even care and they'll reliably hit you out of the air with fS, because that move absolutely needed a huge vertical hitbox. For him and I-No to be tied on the tier list, Sol would need to lose all of these things which hard counter I-No. But at that point it's an entirely different matchup

Ah, perfect timing, I've had so many match ups I couldn't figure out, so many moves that I can't punish, so this will be helpful. "This move kinda sucks aye? You kinda just have to space around it." "You can sort of JS that move, but the exchange isn't in your favour." "Ino actually has pretty good tools against this character in neutral, but you kinda just die if you get touched." Bruh.
@lintecassidy2063 жыл бұрын
So does the fact that these matchups cluster around loosing indicate that I-No isn’t very good in this game, or is that just a product of you approaching it conservatively due to lack of information?

A bit of both. I do think I-no is on the weaker end of the cast (but still easily viable)

@diaphone had anything changes in your eyes after the I-no buffs? Jack-O match up?
Am I missing something with the Axl match-up? You say he has a hard time with dive kick and if you get in he explodes. In addition you show stroke HS going from his max range 5P and getting I-no in. So how is it a bad MU? Seems to me that while 5P messes with hover, hover should beat his 2HS and 2P so it's even? Is there another layer to this?
@Diaphone3 жыл бұрын
Hovers need to be better placed, it has a good amount of startup which can be clipped by 2HS or 2P. Typically I find it pretty hard to use hover in this mu outside of up close.

Because after so many years of getting used to calling it HCL, why would you go out of your way to shorten it differently? Additionaly, CL is generally used as the abbreviation for Clean Hit, as seen on Sol's combos on Dustloop.

@countgarlic94953 жыл бұрын
@@phill1711 Indeed. I was thinking more about the general mechanics, but it's also an issue with the movesets. For some characters (most even), streamlining made sense and you didn't lose much. But characters like May really lost complexity and I feel like I-No's core movelist was streamlined already. I get why Sterilization Method got thrown out, but it could have still had nice applications. I agree, HCL is supposed to be the backbone of her neutral in conjunction with STBT and Note, but it is just pitiful how easy it is to low profile. I do think making note more relevant in neutral again, but I have no idea how they would go about doing that, because faster startup would mean easier note oki, which is against their whole design-philosophy in Strive. I hope they give 5HS a purpose, because it's just a worse 2HS right now. A few small adjustments could go a long way with I-No.
