Can't fly, can't play: A chicken training diary

[chickenwithtie]

Well yes I made it.
Skullgirls is my first fighting game, and the genre I played the most is click and point adventures, so it's a brand new world for me.
I play with keyboard, tried both Playstation and Xbox controllers, got back to keyboard.
Characters I tried and dropped:
Squigly, Cerebella, Eliza
Characters I'm considering:
Peacock, Beowulf
Current team:
Fukua-Double.

Double:
currently the character I'm practicing the most.
current combo:
c.LK MK MK HK j.LK j.MK QCBMK c.LK MK MK HK j.MP j.HP LP c.MP c.HP QCFPP

Fukua:
Maaan this character is a mess to me.
c.LK LK HP j.MP j.HK LP MP HP j.MK j.HK (and then i kinda get blocked, I j.QCFKK or desperatly try c.MP c.HP QCBMK to restar the circle, iunno, I need to get me more infos. In general fukua streams are confusing)

Beowulf:
This guy is a lot of fun but heavy as fuck.
c.LK c.MK c.HP QCFMP cMLP c.MP c.HP c.LK MK HK QCFLKx2 c.LK c.MK(grab) K(forward or back randomly)

Peacock:
Curently I just QC the shit out of everything to piss off my friends in lobby match. It's fun.
-x-
This is what I'm trying to practice at the moment, the rest is quite improvised.
Also in matches I tend to panic easily and spam supers. I gotta fix that too

Yeah, try not to panic and mash out a super unless you are point blank next to the opponent.

If you use a super while very close to the opponent, they have to be blocking BEFORE the cinematic flash, so it's pretty good for getting out of pressure and stuff if you use it right.

If you use it while like, 2 character lengths away, they can start blocking during the cinematic pause or even worse they can pull out their own super right after to plow through yours with theirs. (Even if they were in the middle of an attack.)

Also try and learn the Double JHK barrel loop combo! ^^

Allright Double is now
c.LK MK HK j.LK j.MK j.HK j.MP j.MK QCBMK LP MP QCFHP QCFPP and works much better.
I still wish to know how to use the trap super, QCBKK, outside of LK-HP-F.

 

[chickenwithtie]

So I left Beowulf for RoboFortune in my main team(may the Wulf Den forgive me) and she's a lot of fun. Still not sure how to use the beam special. And I feel the need to have combos as linear as possible

-RoboFortune
c.MK c.HP j.MP j.MK j.HK c.LP c.MP c.HP j.LK j.MK j.HK c.LK MK HP QCFHP (maybe super here?)

Is there any way you can post a video of your matches so I can comment on your Fukua?
