I just found this from July, but this is a pretty great Sindel player, going toe to toe with a good Cyrax player.

LOL at the "You did not earn a trophy" message popping up when Cyrax player activated the x-ray!

Nice levitate cancels by Sindel player. I was surprised how often he caught the opponent with the scream. Some nice Cyrax resets too! Those are really scary.

Btw, I realized from the on screen graphics that this is the same tourney Osu linked in the other thread. Osu won it! glasses

Play N Trade near me is having one of their weekly casual fight nights, so I'm thinking of bringing my Sindel in and seeing how she fares.

That was an entertaining match. I find that I can't root for Cyrax players anymore due to all of his shenanigans, which supposedly are being removed in the next patch anyway (this according to TYM). It's nice to see an underdog like Sindel competing at that level!

Cyrax has got so many tools to work with that I feel his players will come up with something new and insane yet again, just like they did after they addressed his bomb trap. I love watching Cyrax matches, I really enjoy the creativity and all the dirty stuff his players come up with.

I've been playing a bit more with him recently, he's just so much fun, especially when he's got meter!

I put him in losers. grin

It's too bad it wasn't recorded because our matches are funny. They're literally almost nothing but zoning.

Here is some more Sindel stuff. Not great but the Raiden she faced was very solid. That 12 hit 40% combo he does at the start of the second match was awesome. I would never try go against Raiden with Sindel, all your zoning goes out the door. Props for even trying.

^ That Sindel player (second link) should be punishing those blocked flying supermans more effectively. I'd go for scream - b+3, f+2 - b+1, 2 - 3, 1 into hair grab, that does cca. 30% damage without using meter. At least that's the best I can do with Sindel lol.

Yeah, guy missed a hell of a lot of chances to punish.

Hmmmm, think I will go give that combo a try...

You also need to add a dash in and a short time delay between the b+3, f+2 and b+1, 2 strings. wink

You can also do b+3, f+2 - dash + delay - b+1, 2 - delay - d+4 into her cartwheel special. That one does a bit less damage but it connects more often for me.

You can also finish those combos with an x-ray instead of a special move, it will do 41%-43% damage.

My pleasure.

And my thanks to Nephrite for those combos. Think I will go mess around with some Sindel. Still looking for a "unknown" option in my arsenal.

^ No problem! :)


Also, a few low damaging, but with some mix-up dirt in them:

2, 1 into cartwheel this one will hit high, low, mid
2, 1 into low fireball this one will hit high, low, low

Those do cca. 18-20% damage, but can be annoying to opponents since they have to guess right. You can also cancel the same string into the x-ray which also hits low and thus plays a part in the mix-up.


Also her b+2, 4 string can be followed up immediately with a projectile (d, f+1). It will not count as a part of the combo, but the projectile cannot be blocked.
