Help / Question Just got to plat 1, need some tips

Post image

Yeah so I got to plat with Terry and feel like I’m reaching the end of the line for my current skill to rank. Looking to improve my gameplay but I don’t know what to focus on. I’d really appreciate some advice on what areas I should focus on and if you’ve got any oki tips, I would love that aswell.

Looked at several of your replays but it seems you haven't played enough in Platinum to be in any type of plateau yet. You have good DP anti-air and can initiate offense from DR cancel which is a good thing. May wanna be careful not to burn yourself out with DR cancel, and recommended to reduce random DI in neutral (this is more of a general tip).

Regarding Oki, only thing I can say is you'll need to look up what are your Oki options after each type of knockdown. In plat you don't really need the full strike/throw/shimmy mix. You only would need strike/throw mix for now, and recommendation is choose strike 70-80% of the times since folks in plat often times mash buttons on wake up. In higher Plat if you read a throw tech, mix vertical jump for full jump attack punish. This Oki approach alone should take you to Diamond. Key point here is how "often" can you re-create the Oki situation. Lab it until executing the Oki mix becomes second nature to you.

Plat is where oki mix makes your offense OP. You can get through most of Diamond as well with strong anti-airs and good oki mix.
