Media Akira - Tips and Tricks

[Sly Bass]

Here is a type of genre I would love to start seeing more of instead of just combo videos. While those videos are good, you don't actually get the mentality behind how the character works. You don't know what to do in situations. I hope that this video, and the sub-sequential follow ups, will inspire others to do the same with their character.

[Omega SYSP]

I don't play akira but this was very nice

 

[EMPEROR_COW]

Great video.. Keep'um comin bass

 

[Zeo]

Thumbs up.

 

[tokiopewpew]

I also don't play Akira, but that video is still very informative.

at that kick cancel.

 

[BlankOctober]

Very informative! We need more information videos, and less combo 420-swag-yolo videos indeed.

 

[Force_of_Nature]

This is one of the best damn videos I've seen on this site in a long time (Sorry DB...).

Phenomenal work Sly Bass. Lol, I'm this close, THIS CLOSE!!! To subbing Akira. And I just took up VF5FS too! xD

 

[Edmund]

We should all sub akira as appreciation to sly bass' incredible work. If not as a sub,then at least try akira out. Masterful work, sly!

 

[Sly Bass]

The next video is going to help Akira beginners out more than the advanced. I'm going to do stuff like:
1. How to open up your opponent
2. How to deal with spacing opponents
3. Environmental and wall damage
4. And of course how to input the KNEE.

 

[Force_of_Nature]

Yup, of course no Akira tutorial would be complete without a generous dose of Knees!

 

[DestructionBomb]

Edit: You could probably use this pic Sly. In the video on how to do 1-Frame

 

[FightersLegend]

You beat me to it Sly Bass. One of my friends(new fighting game player) was just talking to me about the effectiveness of combo videos. He gave some good points and I was going to make either an addendum (am I using this word right? Too lazy to look it up lol) to my previous video or make a new one altogether. Good work man. I'm linking every new Akira player I come across to this video.

YUS! xD

My face lit up with joy when I seen new video on my Youtube subscriptions. This is the kind of video other characters who are not used extensively need, not cookie-cutter combo videos. Although, I do enjoy those montages, this video is more the stuff I love to see. Kudos man, you and all the other Akira players are doing the character a GREAT service ^_^

 

[Tulkas]

great video, thx very much

Guard Breaks:
"If you dont use these, then you're dumb. Stop playing Akira and use someone else."

I'M DUMB AND I NEED TO USE KOKORO...


Thanks for the Tips and ORA ORA ORAAAAA (tricks)

Good vid. Doesn't 6 P+k also guarantee 46p? I know it does in vf5.

 

[DestructionBomb]

Good vid. Doesn't 6 P+k also guarantee 46p? I know it does in vf5.

Yeah.

Yeah. I was thinking stun game when I did that, but you're right. 46p is guaranteed as well.
