Gonna ask the same thing I asked earlier cause I still don't know
[1:01 AM]
How to reasonably deal with Chipp as Axl?
[1:01 AM]
He gets in super fast to avoid any of your long range stuff, and all of his frames are much faster up close. I can never get a button in against him.
[1:01 AM]
It's especially dangerous to press buttons at long range since his super can hit you from anywhere.
LukeToday at 1:05 AM
I haven't played chipp in this game tbh to help
NuttaconToday at 1:05 AM
i've been dreading solving that problem too. i hated chipp in Xrd, and we had a DP
[1:05 AM]
now idk
LukeToday at 1:05 AM
I think rainwater should be good if he is dashing in with buttons
[1:05 AM]
But characters move pretty fast in the air(edited)
NuttaconToday at 1:05 AM
i haven't even touched chipp in the beta - does he still have his telports?
LukeToday at 1:06 AM
Nope
NuttaconToday at 1:06 AM
oh. well that's something i guess. those blew me up in xrd
LukeToday at 1:06 AM
He got gutted tbh. Gamma blade is also nerfed and hurts him double for some reason
[1:06 AM]
The projectile has a hurtbox and he can get ohko by some supers
NuttaconToday at 1:07 AM
now it sounds like he's just like another millia. where the answer is "well just keep him out with zoning". which seems like it's Axl's advantage on paper
[1:07 AM]
but then they start moving around atmach speed and good luck pressing the right buttons at the right time(edited)
[1:08 AM]
i do feel like Axl's close range game got gutted
#GGST_AX MU specific but rensen bomb explodes the fro and you get more from it!https://t.co/yIn2zjuwoz pic.twitter.com/7ln4vjIYwh— McAxl (@BoFVGOAT) February 19, 2021

i was watching james chen trying to figure out the potemkin VS axl matchup yesterday, and one problem he had was rensen would blow up hammerfall because hammerfall can only absorb 1 hit, but rensen hits multiple times. i guess first of all, does anyone know off-hand how many hits rensen is?
also general rensen question - is it still technically a projectile like it was in Xrd?
FuryfireToday at 2:22 PM
It breaks projectiles except Leo's I believe
I want to test it against Gio's Spiral Arrow because I think that acts like Leo's
But wish to validate it
cocojam™™Today at 2:45 PM
Rensen is historically always 3 hits, dunno about strive and I'm sure it's still a projectile
_MehToday at 7:10 PM
i think i saw a pot flicked it back
on topic of pot, now that rensen is no longer a midscreen tool and hammerfall looks like its been buffed i think the matchup got way harder
saw the two korean axls got wiped by pots
LukeToday at 7:16 PM
why would rensen not work midscreen?
is it way more minus?
or are you talking about the rensen8 vacuum effect
_MehToday at 7:30 PM
slower startup and longer active because it goes all the way to fullscreen
DerrekToday at 7:31 PM
Probably still okay mid screen vs pot, just have to read or react to hammerfall right
It'll take getting used to
I think keeping people out is universally harder now though
Not having to fd to block his AAs is pretty big
_MehToday at 7:34 PM
on the previous beta i think its fine, if not a bit easier
snail and air snail is godlike
rensen explosion chip damage helps offset the damage lost
LukeToday at 7:36 PM
Reacting to hammer fall has never been easy to me either way. I'm more worried about his jH being massive and jumping being good from the looks of it
DerrekToday at 7:37 PM
Yeah I'd say pot seems less helpless in this matchup and I'm alright with that
LukeToday at 7:38 PM
I don't know how it went in xrd since I didn't play axl then, but in +R he isn't helpless and I have to actually zone most of the time haha
I really don't like that matchup
cocojam™™Today at 7:57 PM
axls only option against pot in xrd is iad j.s
:PepeLaugh:
LazyToday at 9:24 PM
Pot wasn't really helpless vs. Axl in Xrd, it can just be hard to play at first
In +R I've heard the MU being either even or Pot-favored lol
As far as Xrd goes Pot has way worse matchups than Axl
