I still hate when I see that 'M' cuz its almost always gonna be a Luke or Gief and their easy input shenanigans. Especially Gief.
I started with Manon and I'm still on that. Haha! I didn't know she was gonna be upper level. I just knew she had a harsh anti-air, some LONG pokes, and a little throw drama for turtling people. She can still get rushed down and jabbed to death so I don't buy that she's totally busted. I had some Kimberly player wax me something fierce..actually good Kens too. But most of the tomfoolery folks? Manon has some tools for them. IE: it took me 2 fights to figure out how to deal with a Blanka. Once I saw it work, I got hella comfortable.
I dealt with an AGGRESSIVE Guile over the weekend who sank my battleship. It was great to see what a not full of shit Guile could do.
Also and in closing, fuck Dee Jay. Haha.
