Besides Rewind, you might be the only other Reiko main I HAVE to watch more. Dope gameplay. I was using Darrius even before I knew about the kick into command grab so I have some mix up potential going on but Stryker is looking kinda nice with him. Definitely giving it a try. Thanks for this!
I'm looking forward to the day Reiko gets his crown for best player in the game. Watch people jump ship when the next patch nerfs Baraka and Raiden lol.
Back 3 into knee such a mandatory string everyone pkaying Reiko needs. And Stryker, Sonya, Sektor all good for Reiko besides just Darrius. I’m some cases I’d say better cuz you get more options. Especially since most people just cry online about “ninja stars and a command grab” WHICH CAN BE DUCKED NORMALLY unless ya EX it but that costs two bars.
@@Khan-_-Art1st he doesn’t add more zoning like the mentioned. He good but I mean. Idk. I’m not personally into those big combo damages vs. steady reliable combo damages with mixup.
You can also use Strykers grenade throw to give yourself a free EX slide because it pops them up mid air. Hard to get down consistantly though. Only tried it in practice.
I like how Stryker acts as a combo breaker if you know your opponent is gonna get aggressive. Most kameos leave when getting hit so it's cool to see him just toss the bombs to interrupt. I'm trying to use reiko myself but he has no good confirms. Seeing this video tho i think Imma keep pushing it. It would be nice to see a video that shows the gameplay of pokes to utilize because i get blocked for everything and all my throws get interrupted. I know my execution isn't great and slow most of the time, but it's so easy got other characters to get a mix up like cage and reptile and smoke and sub zero. At least for me reiko feels way more reactable than most characters
Dude just came across your channel, your Reiko is sick! I would love to know your reasonings for choosing Stryker over Darrius? No one has yet to make a guide on how to use Reiko with Stryker so that could a video idea for ya because I would love to learn how to use him as well!
a character like Reiko is so dangerous up close and hard to guess whats he going to do, stryker gives Reiko that extra support all around, zoning, mixing, and setups. Darrius is cool but long term I rather prefer stryker. I think it's time to make a guide lol
@@silentsreturn I’ve used Darrius because there has been plenty of coverage surrounding him and he’s easy. But I do hate that I can only use my cameo once per round, seems that you can get more value out of Stryker over a set. And do it!! I know a lot of us are looking forward to you making a guide.
I hate that I suck so bad at inputs, I can't consistently do the knee for shit. First time on PlayStation since PS2 so maybe I just need to get that muscle memory back; but man last night I must've lost 8 times in a row with Rieko, switched to Johnny and went up a rank Hopefully if I watch your vids on repeat I'll learn something lmao
Hey man how do you get the command grab out so easy sometimes I get down 1 a lot even thoe am hitting it. Also am having issues converting b3 to knee and tips?
I like Stryker more but Darrius damage is great in some matchups where you need to get in or choose to stay out, Stryker more like a pressure heavy or zone heavy team
Tell me pls, how do you feel when to go in knee after b3 from neutral if the player is in the block, it’s yolo. Or do you feel when the player opens up for whif?
@@silentsreturn I understand this, but I see how you press b3 when the enemy is blocking, then this is a risk. Maybe you feel that he is letting go of the block?
@@DARTSIX as a high level gamer. U wanna be unpredictable & play smart in neutral. Reiko is a grappler but also a really strong, maybe 1 of the best zoners. Use different strings other than just his anti airs unless reacting to 1. Mix in some mid string staggers & sneak in his overhead special which is 10%.
@@silentsreturnis there a specific version? I'm looking for the one around when you were fighting the sub player. I looked it up and I can't seem to find that part.
Damn dude. I’m a reiko player currently in grand master rank but only playing with Darrius. I gotta try out Stryker more. I do have one question though: Have you tried using Sektor at all? I tried practicing with him and he seems to have a lot of potential.

Predicting that jump and catching him like that must have felt so good haha
It always does and it’s funny 😭

I hope so lol

I’m $till tryna figure out how in the world he grabbed $indel out da air wit the fatal blow….😳
@@izeeiz You can hold up during fatal now to do the anti-air version.
Bro I’ve mained reiko since release and I started using Stryker because of you. Good shit. Your videos are awesome.
thank you! that means so much, I'm gonna do my best to keep uploading more videos ❤🔥
The intentional drop just to backdash and punish mashing is an elite read.
idk about intentional drop lmfao but Improvising is a must!
@@silentsreturn well I guess it’s time to add the intentional one to your bag lol
@@uchiharainy but people are most likely to press when you drop a combo 95% of the time

General Shao would be proud!

Oh I never tried that, but you might have to call Stryker really early, but good to know ty, ima lab that
ive been confident in reiko stryker since day 1 and im so happy to see this
Lmao that kenshi got pummeled 😂
he beat me the next set, he was good tho

Non-Stop beatdowns.
My guy his hungry for Championship status.
WWE should sign him fr lol

You’ll hear those songs from peak hearts on my channel quite a lot 🥹
I've been messing around with Rekio in the lab with Stryker and his grenades and holy crap... He doesn't get enough credit.
Didn't know Reiko had drip like that lmfao

W! Seen the progress since you first picked him up 🔥
Them DDT'S are brutal
I've played reiko sense Mk 4, loved him sense seeing his ending and believing he was Shao khans son. My guy!
I believe Jax would’ve been the only player that would’ve given reiko competition but they didn’t want to add him in the game as playable
This music makes me feel like I’m playing Final Fantasy
It’s from Square Enix game kingdom hearts lol
lol I had a feeling it was related to one of their games
It's was absolutely amazing!
This was entertaining to watch

So this vid is fire 🔥 need a part 2
Thank you ❤️🔥
Do you use controller or do you play on a hitbox i'm trying to learn reiko but getting his combos down is hard
Controller, keep practicing bro you’ll get it down like the rest of us 😎
dang this reiko is cooking
Definitely considering playing Reiko ion even got the game yet😅
Yea you should be bro, if you like aggrieved playstyle, and playing footsies. Reiko is also hard to play with, but it’s worth it once you learn him.
@silentsreturn ohh I love aggressive gameplay I'll try him out when I get the chance

Reiko is difficult to play with, If you love his playstyle I would say stay with him and grind, but try someone else you like if you want
I keep messing up the input for the Face break into back down forward one any tips ?
How do you geet the B4 into flying knee, i havent been able to replicat it
Just keep practicing bro, and maybe change your button shortcuts
0:28 what in the hit box?!
Bro, I seen that Reiko yesterday, did you seen him as well? We shall seen him together!
I used to play with u on the demon slayer game never knew u played mk
Thank you for staying Thomas!
Hey man how do you get the command grab out so easy sometimes I get down 1 a lot even thoe am hitting it. Also am having issues converting b3 to knee and tips?
Try to swipe fingers on the d-pad like a half circle, it's really easy once you get it down. it would be like then square(1).
what moves are you using stryker kameo for coverage mainly? blocking on get ups and unsafe slides?
I use the handcuffs to restand or when they’re about to die, usually overheads after f12, and grenade neutral 😭💯
How you get that badass horned helmet? The shrine?
most likely mastery levels, if not try the store or shrine.

Batman is amazing
I just started playing reiko and I’m using Kano I’m not that good in neutral so he helps me get in but can he also help extend combos?
It would be tricky but I think you can make it work!
The only thing i dont like about reiko, is that he only has 2 lows, none can start or extend a combo
Do you think stryker is better or do you just not like darrius?
I like Stryker more but Darrius damage is great in some matchups where you need to get in or choose to stay out, Stryker more like a pressure heavy or zone heavy team
Have I missed it or there was no other Reiko so you talk bout yourself in the title? 🤔

I do have one question though: Have you tried using Sektor at all? I tried practicing with him and he seems to have a lot of potential.

Good sht
Que rico

I’m trying to not bore you guys lol some parts just be just straight, neutral, but I would do full gameplay on sets only not ranked.
