Help: struggling HARD with OG NG2 Master Ninja
So I thought I was warming my way up to this but I guess not. For context, I beat:
NG2 Black: Master Ninja
NG2 Black White Mod (with all the settings set to mimic the original as much as possible): Master Ninja
NG3 Razors Edge: Ultimate Ninja
NG Black: Very Hard
Something about OG NG2 is throwing me off. The IS spam timing I can handle in the mod, but not in the original. I feel like I’m constantly stun locked and unable to i-frame my way out of it.
And what my brain wants Ryu to do and what he actually does never match up. Just a simple XXY with the Lunar is causing problems because very often he’ll just stop after the first X and just stand there. (Edit: not saying it’s input delay , more that I’m doing something wrong.)
Im sure I’m doing something wrong but I don’t know what it is. I refer to Farnham and JayTB’s guides. And I’m Series X with a wired G7 Pro controller. Any tips would be MUCH appreciated!
P.S. Maybe it’s a placebo effect but the game feels better on Xenia on PC to me, but I’m only on normal. How does Xbox back-compat work exactly?
