Yeah this thread was active for a little but with such a decrease in new players in the community its quiet.That FB group is a great resource though.

I very much enjoyed compiling this thread and people together back when it was useful though I'm glad it helped at least a few people ^^

If we ever get a SC6 Ill make sure to work on a thread similar to this pretty early on :)
 
I'm still alive and can still teach the game but only if they feel like committed/ passionate about learning SC5.
Can teach all characters.

I'm still on Xbox 360

ok so guys, I find myself in a bit of a pickle...Algol, people have been saying that it may be fairly even between NM and Algol...but tbh I just don't see it anything and everything I do gets stuffed by 2A...way too scared to even space because of 4B+K alone...so is it possible that someone can walk me through this MU

Stick to your throw game, especially flapjacks. Whiff punish Algol with 33B. You have to take big risks with Nightmare like having your 3B blocked and your throws ducked because you can do more dmg than Algol as long as he doesn't have full meter or hit you with 44B and you hit him with your risky but high damage moves. DON'T get hit by 44B! If you need to backstep don't do it from range and use B+K~NSS to backstep Algol's short-ranged pokes (2A/2K/1K, etc). If the opposing Algol can hit their iFC 8B combos you're in trouble, you have to eat the wake-up because of your frame disadvantage (when he ends the combo in a regular headbutt), in which case its better to block standing than low (but be prepared to block 1A). Algol's should want to pressure you with 66B (-4 on block), also to break your guard meter for a free 44B combo, use this knowledge to your advantage. If Algol starts spacing you, you have the advantage. However if Algol shoots a bubble you want to dodge it and run forward (because of Algol's potential QI followups). Try to only sidestep/ forwardstep when at mid-far or far ranges. Learn to react to Algol's QI mixup (QI B * QI K) this will take experience and time. Sneak as many 1K's in with NM as you can, your lowkick game is better. Try to bait Algol's parry (623B), block it and punish with 4K BE or 3{B}, its really unsafe. Save your Meter for combos and CE.

Hope this helped.
