I main Sonya Blade, Jade, Mileena and Kitana (my boyfriend mains Kitana mostly) and we do tag a lot.

One thing we've noticed is that Sindel is one of the most ANNOYING characters to fight online when they are spammy. Her moveset/martial arts is incredible and it baffles me that people hardly use it.

To be honest all I see people do as Sindel is low scream repeatitively (which I normally jump over as Sonya and do a dive kick combo, or as Jade I'll use the shield but even she can hit me with her unblockable combo).

So she'll either do the low scream, the mid scream, and the high in the air scream which is really annoying. I guess it's only really really annoying when they do it over and over again. So you have to stay on top of her ass. If you let her zone you you're screwed. But if you get up close to her then she can do her unblockable flip kick combo where it hits you no matter where you are blocking.

And Kenshi is just annoying as hell. They are always zoning and its like impossible to get a hit in cuz of his extremely obnoxious sword orb thing. What the hell is that thing anyways?

Does anyone have any tips for Kenshi?

With Sindel I just apply the pressure but sometimes she still wins

Her flip kick can be blocked high, just not low. Sindel's zoning might be tricky, but her zoning is the least risky out of the zone reliant characters, she isn't going to be able to bust out those super high damage combos off of her fireball, like Shang Tsung, Sektor, and others can do.

For Kenshi? Patience and dash blocking till you get in to beat him down. His tele-flurry can be blocked low, so you can avoid chip as well. That doward sword swipe must be block high, his sword pop up can be blocked either high or low. his shoulder charge too.

Kenshi isn't a cake walk, but out of all the zoners, just a bit of patience and you can get in and if this Kenshi player doesn't have the skills to back up his/her zoning, you just stay on top of them and the match is in the bag for you, Sonya,Mileena, Jade and Kitana all are great cheese busters, especially Mileena and Jade, tele-port kick and projectile invulnerabiltiy for the win

You can block that, but you need to be standing as it is an overhead.

If she goes for her 2, 1 string into flip kick then you need to block that "1" low and then block the flip kick high.

As for Kenshi, I haven't play against him that much, but he seems to struggle up close. I tried to get in dash-blocking with Kitana and with her enhanced square wave which has armor against a very solid Kenshi guy I played once. So, try something similar and see if it works: dash & block or use moves with armor (Sonya- enh. arc kick and enh. cartwheel).

EDIT: I had a feeling Espio was gonna beat me to it lol.

Also, Sonya's military stance shoulder check move can negate unenhanced wake up attacks and has surpirsingly long reach to get you in close, overwhelm them when you get in with Sonya's 1,1, 4 her 2,1, back 4 mix up and if you can, dive kick into a leg grab combo for 24% damage.

Utilize pokes when you get in close to keep them guessing, Kitana, Mileena, and Sonya have some of the best pokes in this game.

Use Jade's enhanced glow and then a staff overhead, back 2, and then up 3 for 23% damage or if you have meter, you can do overhead staff, back 2, X-ray for over 40% damage, easy combo.

I love playing as Kenshi, but I hate fighting him. He's just a bitch to get in on lol.

Kenshi's telekinetic moves are simple to jump over... Even though I've played against very few Kenshi users, when I was still online that is, they spammed his moves since they can be hit from anywhere on the screen. Ducking and blocking are my only words of helping you out with him.

Sindel is awesome :D

However Mileena absolutely blows her up.

Use Sindel vs Kenshi, stay t full screen and use air fireball.

when you're fighting Sindel as Kitana the best strategy (imo) is to quickly jump and throw fans so Sindel gets hit with them while she jumps & leaves her open for an air combo.

She will low fireball under them and hit you if she's smart.

As a kenshi player (not my only main, to be honest though I haveb't played the game since Freddy got released < coincidence not on purpse)

Get up close, actual close though, cause you don't want to catch the sword combo which is at medium length (Iactually in my opinion Kenshi is most effective in medium range, so stay out of that) I found him quite vurnarable against teleports, do when one activates a slow move or combo...

Some ( like me) are able to time it so that the combo or move will activate just after the teleport still hitting you, but it's a timing thing... so pressure should resolve that somewhat...

Funny how people cry about freddy cause he is a guest character. I seen some amazing combos with freddy and kratos doing over 55% damage.

Anyway, you need to learn nightwolf or Noob Saibot and spam back on spammers. Nightwolf ex shoulder ram puts a stop to any zoner or projectile in the game. You can also ex glow with jade, ex arc kick with sonya or spam noob saibot shadows and telethrows.

Kano can downwards ball on sindel spammers and upball when close. kanos knife is too fast and too strong for sindel.

Avoid flipkicks when using sheeva upclose with ex-throws but other then that, Sheeva totally destroys sindel and half the roster now. I been destroying people with sheeva cause they do not know how to stop that free massive damage combo after they get stomped.

Even though it's not during online, just regular arcade, Kitana has an annoying habit of jumping way too much as my opponent. And since I do play as Sindel, this is virtually a great way to start out with the first hit.

And yes, if people start out like that with Kitana against Sindel, they will do that. I've seen it before... Because I've done that.
