Facts!!! I was so frustrated with missing standing HP at close causing me to whiff and eating big combos! Now I’m able to whiff punish at a much higher rate than ever before and realized it’s an integral part of Kim’s plan
One thing I’m noticing as a Kim main not nearly as good as two days from retirement Diaphone is that none of the pros are using light v. edge. That move has received nothing but buffs to be safe on block and even combo into itself when spaced and more on counter/punish counter. Capcom clearly wants it to be used as a poke in neutral to compensate for Kim’s generally weak buttons, but I never see anyone do anything with it. It is just not good?
It can work as a surprise poke for maybe a surprise chip kill. Hitting the sweet spot is stricter than normals and the reward isn't really worth the effort. It's better to just practice pokes with 5MK or 5HP. It does wreck unsuspecting Lily's though.
It lives in a similar range as Hp but offers none of the advantages. On hit whether it’s normal, counter, or punish, offers less reward then every instance of Hp And when they block light v edge, your turn is immediately over since you are at best minus 3. When they block hp they still have to contend with the run mix up afterwards, you can even just hit hp again since they will be waiting for the run most likely. It’s just worse in every way, yet they want players to use it.
@@phatgrizzly3520 It reaches farther than m.ck and is her farther reaching move when you look at the hitboxes. You have to space it. I usually use it after a block string ending with a lk and take a step back. Its a good surprise attack because it hits from far. Sometimes it hits, the other time you have to take a block string.
Sparking zeros patch changes A LOT. I think it’s worth redoing the tier list for example gogeta blue is now very valuable due to his stardust deflection being able to be used in stun 👀 and the z broly cheese is gone
Man I was feeling pretty black-pilled about Kimberly's chances in this game. Even after these buffs I still find her defense to be woefully lacking. I'd also like more interesting moves that use the spray cans. Maybe I'll come back to 6 again sometime soon.
imo kimberly having middling defense is a good thing. if they changed her ex tatsu to be invincible she wouldn’t be all that different from all the other top tier shotos with ex DPs. her offense is pretty strong rn and add that might be too much. Maybe they could give her lights some extra range, but they’d have to be careful around that
A Kimberly tech showcase would be a sick video!
Yeah I wanna get a strong start on Kim again with some updated oki and resets.
This is amazing news. I can't explain but I love fighting Kims, they're such dynamic matches.
I remember watching you mess up the intro lol awesome stream
Being able to whiff punish is so nice!

One of the best Kimberly’s this side of the Mississippi has returned!

Diaphone's locked in faces are so intense sometimes.
Thanks 🎉
Wait what happened at 14:43? did he perfect parry into drive rush, or is that a perfect driverush timer?
new to SF6 but I love Kimberly
If you perfect parry Drive Impact, you can respond with your own DI.
Put of retirement

how long until he fixes the title
He just did lmfao

It would be nice if her can buffed super did more damage because man there's no reason to use the can
