Shock, I said, Ayane has no "Real" options. If you think about it, Ayane can't really pressure or juggle. Her whole style is solely about trickery. Her mixups are limitless, but her combos all boil down to the same endings
Ayane has some of the best pressure in this game along with a few others, and it's not about string variation like most others. You have not played a solid Ayane player at all.
Speaking from the perspective of a low level Christie player Ayane's mobility and evasion makes Christie's Jakeiho and Zentenshin look like a joke pair this with her quick-ish tracking mids and she is a pain in the dick to fight. Despite being a mid rage zoning character she can do CQC as well as long distance fighting moderately well.
@iHajinShinobi: was that really necessary? maybe he formed that opinion after fighting shitty Ayane players. I felt the same way about Sarah until I learned how stupid she is. Calling someone stupid because they don't know everything shows that you are projecting.
I've learned to just let Hajin do his thing and not take it too personally. He's just sensitive when it comes to the character he put so much time into learning and trying to perfect.
@aka Lol, i know he actually plays quite intelligently and literally forces me to completely alter my style which i hate doing and then i literally have to play rushdown which i hate doing in doa
@goarmagon: Yes, it is absolutely necessary with what I said. Lion has been a very stupid person since he's been here at FSD. His approach toward the game is a generic example I've talked about at offline events for months now, as well as in general. People base their opinion off online play too often and hardly play anyone competent for a second opinion.
@haijin there are only two good ayane players that i know of and they're you and force. Literally nearly everyone else who uses ayane is quite bad and since there is a huge majority of people doing that.it's just assumed that's how ayane is played
@Brute @iHajinShinobi I understand passion and dedication but his response is going beyond the decency threshold. Again you are probably second to no one in regards to knowledge on Ayane as well as the game but do not think that it gives you a license to be a pompous asshole. That will drive people away from our anemic scene.
Prince Adon doesn't even main or sub Ayane at all. He's better than most of the community using her because he learns from me and he's just naturally a good player.
