The STRONGEST Modern Character - Modern Cammy Guide

Man, been a lurker since some months, but your content is really good. Straight to the point, no jokes. I'm a modern Jamie player (just hit platinum, for now is my plateau) and would love to see a little guide like this for my drunken fighter. Have a nice day everyone!

[@kaigai-nikimajikoi325]

Man the corner EX mix is pretty godlike I really don't think many would be prepared for that move because they would be too preoccupied with the jab or throws so sneaking that EX is really good.

Legit had fun trying this, I actually feel like I don't have to think about my controls with modern and I played for hours with no tilt today, it was CRAZY jab jab spiral arrow carryin'

something u didn't mention but her light auto combo on block is very safe since spiral arrow doesn't come out, so u can throw it out as a block string or DR cancel it into grab it's a very easy option select

I feel like more than anything this might get patched lol. It's uh, an interesting decision.

THANK YOU for this guide. No knock against other content creators, it's all valuable stuff, but a lot of guides start out assuming you know how to play. I just want the most barebones, basic gameplan possible so that when the round starts I'm not panicking thinking about all the moves I could do. I want to do Honda headbutt spam on EVERY character and then when that doesn't work then I'll learn another move. I don't need to know all 453 uses of whiff punish crouching medium punch, I just want to know "when they jump, press down+special".

[@berserk_3440]

I think I was tripin with all the effort I was putting into classic cammy, modern cammy the new Strat for me thanks for waking me up

[@TooLeegitToQuit]

This was perfect timing, you are the best Modern Ambassador! I picked up Modern Cammy this past week, and I came to the same conclusion too: that she exploits the benefits of Modern more than any other character. Even more than Luke, because she has better supers and her specials benefit more from Modern inputs than his, and he still needs to do Classic inputs and get Perfect charges. She's missing a couple key normals (standing light kick and crouching medium punch), but the core gameplay is still very much intact. After playing her, I feel so crippled going back to other characters.

[@V2ULTRAKill]

I mean iirc she loses a BIG chunk of damage off of stun without charged hooligan Unless easy input hooligan is heavy

Everyone wants to use the, "20% off damage" argument like it's a big disadvantage. Hitting a DP that you otherwise wouldn't have or reacting to ANY button with a Level 3 super more than makes up for the damage in a round.

[@ChiisaiRamen]

I dont hear "everyone" make that point. It IS a disadvantage and its there to mentioned, rarely anyone ever says its a "BIG" disadvantage. It's one of the disadvantages on top of others. It's just that certain characters dont have quite enough "other" disadvantages like luke

Saving all your best tips till after Evo

[@KiraNoMore]

Solid video, straight to the point.

[@MuSticksArcade]

After the spiral arrow, dash in setup, it is better to use auto-medium than jab. If you use jab, it is possible to execute too quickly and whiff. But the dash leaves you at +8, so if you just time everything as soon as possible the auto-medium will hit meaty. Then if it is a hit, you can confirm into auto-heavy, spiral arrow and reset. Because of the meaty hit, even if it is not counterhit, it will still combo. It's both easier to do and more damage. Also with this combo, you can finish with heavy spiral arrowq, which gives more KD advantage meaning on the NEXT dash in you can instead use crouch HP to hit meaty, which confirms into the same combo, but if they block leaves you in their face at +3.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

That’s only on CH?

[@MuSticksArcade]

@@ANIMEILLUMINATI The meaty hit increases the advantage enough to make it work on normal hit too, as long as both the dash and the auto-medium were executed on first frame. This is actually easier to time since you can now use the buffer window, whereas the jab requires pretty specific timing if you want to get it timed right so that it both doesn't whiff, but still beats out wakeup throw tech. This is due to the fact that the jab needs to be delayed a couple frames, meaning you can't utilize the buffer window. Basically, just aim to execute the dash and followup a couple frames BEFORE you finish the previous animation and let the buffer take care of the rest.

[@V2ULTRAKill]

The best dash in meaty setup on cammy is 2HP Which is accessible on modern, and it frametraps into jab on block, links into 5hp (auto+heavy) on counterhit/punish counter, and thats not factoring in the extra frame advantage from hitting meaty

[@mcbill7352]

I dont play modern but these are just good gameplans in general. Great video

[@HollisBurt]

I am curious, is Modern Cammy still good? That jab x4 into spiral combo wasn't that high damage and I know it's even less now. Curious what your opinion is on Modern Cammy post patch?

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

She is still very very good. Other characters got nerfed as well so her position did not move.

[@SecretosSagrados]

Crap, now I have to take that 'unblockable' to the training room. Thanks for giving us more work.

[@pilebunker420]

after medium spiral arrow if you dash (in the corner you can framekill with light kick) you can couch fierce and it's a guaranteed meaty and that's her plus frames button.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

Modern doesn’t have crMP so it’s hard to combo if crHP hits non-CH. Jab is more stable.

[@pilebunker420]

​@@ANIMEILLUMINATI I knew some moves aren't availabe in modern but I don't know which ones (never looked into modern much), but whatever links and is special cancelable after crHP is fine, i think. it's not really about the damage with her. she reminds me of ggst i-no, knockdown mix repeat, low damage unless you're going for super optimal stuff, but we aren't sweating here. crHP+jabs is good as auto-pilot and for new players too, because if you hit you do the combo, if they block you go for lights blockstring for the pushback.

[@MDToboggan]

You could also do cr fierce > stand light kick > spiral arrow

[@V2ULTRAKill]

​@@ANIMEILLUMINATIit goes into 5LP no matter what just because of frame data, and on meaty goes into 5LK, on counterhit meaty goes into 5HP

Great guide. I have been messing around with Cammy on modern and it's a lot of fun. Only real downside for me is I like to play on stick so having to hit two buttons to get her Standing HP is not ideal.

[@thehistoryrevisionguy-de5208]

Depends on button placement, I have the auto button and heavy attack next to each other, the more difficult one is stand medium punch, I basically never use it since pressing auto and medium attack is such a faff....but yeah, definitely feels like playing modern on stick is a little superfluous

How are you getting 5 frames of advantage after a Spiral Arrow + dash? I get 8, and I even see you get 8 once in the video. 8 frames of advantage makes the grab miss unless I try to manually delay, which makes the whole loop less consistent as I might get jabbed out of the grab if I'm a couple frames late.
