If you guys want something super mean, after a heavy whip ender you can immediately dash forward into overheard which is meaty enough to combo with lp tc; OR If you’re in the corner you can immediate dash into drive impact which is meaty as hell and will beat everything except invincible reversal or a wake up impact. Enjoy (;
@@ahamay656no, after qcfHP, dash forward, as a frame kill, and drive impact, the frame data will make so the drive impact hits meaty in the wake up. It will beat jumps, block, wake up buttons, and lose to wake up di, parry, and super. It’s a bit trick to wake up di in response, but not that hard.
With what they’ve done with Rashid and A.K.I im getting super excited for Ed, Akuma and new Original characters to come lovin what’s happening with this game
It's a good day when we get a Brian_Guide. Idk why but I find them so much easier to process than other character guides. And dropping at a good time too. I've been slowly clawing my way to diamond with AKI doing some of this stuff already, so it's super helpful to get a more comprehensive overview to get an idea of what I'm not doing.
Yo, if you still wanna frame trap after forward hk you can press light kick. If they block then no biggie, but on counterhit light kick can link to medium punch and then qcf heavy punch to go into combos or safe jump
thanks for posting this, this is so good! it feels a lot better than the mp route though it's definitely harder to confirm, feels good to have both options to tease out between opponents who mash more and block more
Definitely have to do more content like this for all the characters Mr. F. There are so many tips for play with and against here in these vids. Thank you for the TIPS!
This is what every combo guide should be! No one needs every single combo to start... i main kimberly and the amount of tutorials and combos to go through, to find some simple basics that are viable in real matches, is insane! I use 3 combos now: Hp, hp vagabond, hp airthrow Cr mp, mp hp, ex run, kick followup. Mid screen it gives you a safejump, corner you get wallsplat so run lk, lp vagabond lvl3, or spraycan setup or fw+hk to some resets.
This is really helpful cause I’m already a silver shitter but I’m struggling particularly bad with aki so if I can make use of this maybe I can finally get a character to gold lol
Something brian does is have these offensive knockdown flowcharts. I've seen his jp one on stream, wonder if it would be possible to write that out and draw the possible sequences?
Is this a sub character for JP? Ik he lost interest in balrog in sfv after a while but still had G and seth on the side until oro came out. Wondering if this is the same
Is there something bad about drive rush towards hk that I'm missing? It seems like a good tool that none of the content creators I regularly watch have mentioned.
Training mode has a save state feature. I don't remember exactly where the option is (since this game's menus are so confusing), but you can set a button shortcut to "create save state" and another one to "load save state."
Brian-samaa need help with her juggle combos 😭. When you do the heavy whip while poisoned that puts them in the juggle state I drive rush into HK but when I cancel into any special moves to extend it only works sometimes and whiffs other times, what's going on😭.
If you drive rush HK into medium whip it always works. If you’re too far heavy whip will whiff. But you can get another safe jump setup if you do drive rush cr MP into heavy whip. Pretty sure that always works too.
So I still dont have this game but think I will soon. Aki looks interesting after playing some fang. A few other characters look cool also, but question to anyone. Who is the knowledge check character for lower levels. Scrubby question I know, but an answer would be cool.
If you want to knowledge check people at low ranks, try E Honda (his headbutt and butt slam are really strong and hard to beat until people figure out perfect parry) or Blanka (similar situation with his blanka ball attacks). Kimberly is probably harder to learn but also can carry you pretty far with knowledge checks. People won't block her run->low slide or her teleports.
@@gaaalavantIve now played thru the entire roster (minus Ed and Rashid). Kim was cool, but difficult defensively. Honda and Blanka were quick to learn, but wouldnt main them because no personality. Since I dont play competitively I have decided on more than 2 characters and the list is looking like Manon, Sim, Aki, Juri, and Akuma when he comes.
This game is fun and ass at the same time. More wake up supers and ultras then ever before. Need footsies?? Na just random DI fuck it. Scrubs thrive on this game
On a lot of characters, if they do a fuzzy jab to beat the coward crouch mix, you can cancel into drill as a third layer and it'll blow it up. I'm sure there are some characters that will poke you out of it, but the ones I've tested with don't have particularly short jabs and they just eat it all the same. Definitely the most committal option, but sometimes letting them know you're a fucking psychopath can throw them way off their game.
the crmk buff(it's now +1 on block from -3 on block i think) changes everything, gone are the days of light-light confirms, we crmk then stlk now, very goated buffs, oh also stlk was another goated buff gahdamn this character is fun now ngl

when you say dash you mean drive rush?

Digging this guide format! The timestamps are super helpful. Thanks for sharing your learnings.

Bro, based on what they've done with Ken and Ryu, I'm excited for what they do with Akuma...
I just wish they’d do more than 4 chars a year. Hey maybe add another 2 and just don’t put them in WT?!?!
@@TheCJRhodesunacceptable, WT is such a nice way to get casuals involved
@@GregInTechnicolorwith what they've done with Ken, I'm TERRIFIED of Akuma

the casual close up on brian with 6100+ dmg combo to close out the video is cold

Between this, the Nemo guide and the Diaphone one I learned a ton for her
thx for simplifying the character, best AKI guide out there hands down
Love the A.K.I gameplay ! Keep it up !
Brian starting the video pointing directly at my soul
I personally like slither state over coward crouch. Aki ain’t no coward!
Thanks for helping us improve
This type of video is god tier. Boss_f
Really good tips. I really want to see you pull her out in tournament
mixing this with diaphone's aki 101 is all i wanted for a character guide
Thanks for the tips! Def taking this to the shed.
That's the video I was looking for. Thanks for sharing.
This is really helpful cause I’m already a silver shitter but I’m struggling particularly bad with aki so if I can make use of this maybe I can finally get a character to gold lol
Great beginner guide. Appreciate you 😎
i think you get the same safe jump and just hold down, visually confirm backroll / quick getup and press HP for quick and HK for back.
You're a legend
Something brian does is have these offensive knockdown flowcharts. I've seen his jp one on stream, wonder if it would be possible to write that out and draw the possible sequences?
When is the next line of merch my guy?
thank you brian f

I think it's just overshadowed by her driverush dfMP overhead
No, I lIke Aki and I'm happy with getting her to Diamond Rank Because I am 59yo..lol. Great video my man, hope it helps be break past plat 2..lol
How do you do that thing in practice mode at 14:32 where you skip the jumpins and go straight to j.HP?
Training mode has a save state feature. I don't remember exactly where the option is (since this game's menus are so confusing), but you can set a button shortcut to "create save state" and another one to "load save state."
Oh I think I found it, thanks!

How was he resetting AKIs jump attack in the training mode wtf?! Is that an option?!

Yo chill brian dont point at me so aggressively ill get frisky
Instead of using qcf hp i use qcf mp
Thank you Brian, you are doing the lord's work
Yeah it's a good video, but look at how nice brian dressed up for the youtube video. He was having a good ah hair day
I must admit: as a Jamie main, I'm a little jealous.
that final sequence was disgusting and mean and i will use it
No chat, he didn't drop JP
secrets? :l
ANGRY COMMENT ABOUT SOL

man I'd like to take her to silver rank
On a lot of characters, if they do a fuzzy jab to beat the coward crouch mix, you can cancel into drill as a third layer and it'll blow it up. I'm sure there are some characters that will poke you out of it, but the ones I've tested with don't have particularly short jabs and they just eat it all the same. Definitely the most committal option, but sometimes letting them know you're a fucking psychopath can throw them way off their game.
The drill is just so risky though, you will eat a full 50-60% combo instead of a jab combo if they interrupt the command grab
You can also just delay the kick followup, which is much safer and gives you a counter hit combo
This is the same level of psychopathy as using Shoryu as a meaty
Expect people don’t know anything about the character so its free gimmicky wins whereas everyone can punish a shoryu
I think this video is the best AKI tutorial so far I've watched. Learned more here than I was expecting.
Forward HP does like 80% of an entire drive bar on block. So if they're just holding downback being really passive, suck the life out of them.
the crmk buff(it's now +1 on block from -3 on block i think) changes everything, gone are the days of light-light confirms, we crmk then stlk now, very goated buffs, oh also stlk was another goated buff gahdamn this character is fun now ngl
thank you brine. my friends will now hate playing against me and disown me!
Really helpful for playing Aki and facing Aki, love it
This is great stuff you should do more tech videos
Even with them tips im still trash 😭
can't you do 5mp into itself on counter hit when you trade with a jab after 5hk? I thought I saw that in Bafael's vid
side note thank you for kicking my ass on monday as well xD
You are the best, we love you Brian
Nice TH-cam-style content. You guys but work into this one. Like to see you breakdown what's going through your head 😂
My only real hurdle in playing aki, is BUYING aki
Thanks for showing us the AKI way
