Soul Calibur 4 - Maxi: Lets fight! oh wait its over already?

[Megasiviper]

this guy does alot of poking with maxi especially that 2A XD i love maxi mine is better but i play on xbox so no chance of me fighting this guy

[Hawk10489]

USE MAELSTROM IN LAGGY MATCHES!!!!!!!!!!!! he wont be able to block it and you can f em up

[BrutalMoonDragon]

wtf is up with the part at 3:29 thats a in-human duck

[Kz3andMore]

lol at the ring out xd 3:20

[YawningBoy]

i think maxi is so flashy

[Melvyno23]

seems like everybody makes an impersonation of bruce lee

[mitzanu2007]

@Melvyno23 The Lengend must never die

[SaninsFan1]

i hate it when ppl they shit to maxi , he's not cheap, it's just that there are people who just play cheap with him. -.-

[eastreddragon]

ah Maxi, it's not a matter of whether or not you have skill, more along the lines of whether or not your win button is working.

[pokerus987]

Was sig. Face palming at the end...lol

[AnimaniacXD]

nothin personal by i dont like greatsword because my cousin uses nightmare

[AnimaniacXD]

Do you like using long range weapon?

[BifordusMaximus]

@AnimaniacXD Yes, which is why I moved to Seung Mina.

[AnimaniacXD]

@BifordusMaximus since you like long range whos a higher tier Seung or kilik

[EmpKazbar]

3:14 ...That's pretty cheap right there ;)

[rockafelladw]

Maxi sucks.

[pimphatandcoat]

@rockafelladw lol he was just shit with maxi

[IdleTable]

Maxi is insane! Number one choice for button mashers everywhere! So to see a Maxi that actually fights good rather than button mashes is a nice change!

[DyteTheHedgehog1]

The first 3 matches was just...embarrising. You gotta remember you havent won until hes dead.

[FirefollowedFear]

SPAM!!! maxi is NOT a talented character, i mean its like his combo is endless... seigfreid cant even attack. :O

[BifordusMaximus]

@FirefollowedFear It wasnt spam. Maxi may not be a talented character but the person using him is very talented. The bad connection didnt help me either which was why it was also hard for me to attack. I would have lost anyway, but just not as bad.

[FirefollowedFear]

@BifordusMaximus well, the man did have a good combo but that's it, a good combo, i have to say your an all around better player than him because im a seigfreid user as well and can say you have WAY more skill. dont be so humble your good.

[KurenaiDISCHORD]

@FirefollowedFear This guy right here, haha...putting Maxi down, calling him cheap, all the while he uses Siggy...Maxi is generally considered lower-middle tier whereas Siggy's most often placed mid or higher...LEARN about the game before you talk shit, man...you sound like a scrub...

[FirefollowedFear]

@KurenaiDISCHORD I dont use seigfried as much as other characters i started a while ago im not saying any character is cheap per say, but the usage of that/those character(s) is commonly cheap.

[KurenaiDISCHORD]

@FirefollowedFear It's irritating how few of you actually know anything about Soul Calibur...>.>

[FirefollowedFear]

@KurenaiDISCHORD ive been playing soul calibur before it was called damn soul calibur so shut your mouth, noob scrubs.

[HotRodDave619]

@FirefollowedFear

@FirefollwedFear....Ignorance is bliss. No matter How good a maxi player is, No matter how bad you get beat, people like you just cant grasp that maxi beat you. Krazie is one of the best maxi's out there, Im not to shabby myself. Maxi in the right hands can really smash an ego!!

HRD

[FirefollowedFear]

@HotRodDave619 ignorance is bliss, you know from experience. maxi is trash if you like him your trash too. all of you spammers peice of information YOU AND MAXI SUCK.

[BifordusMaximus]

@HotRodDave619 please! dont argue with 15 year olds... let the tantrum run its course.

[jayparrish1]

The first ever "Soul Calibur" game was called "SoulBlade" wonder why they changed the name...? I still have SoulBlade for the PS1 LOL, ah... memories... but Cervantes was a cheap fuck in that game...

[DarthNihilus1]

YOSHIMITSU FTW NAAAA - MUUUUUUUU

[Hellborndelux]

I'm more interested in how you managed to get a bloody 4 connection. SC4 online generally sucks cock because of the crappy matchmaking and halfarsed lobby design and I can almost never get anything above a 3.

[savvyboom]

KrazieCD whipped my ass with Xianghua!

[Goldfinger791967]

krazicd is alright, hit me up, that will the best batlle ever, i play with maxi also,, CHEFBOY24

[Lztexan]

I play maxi damn good tourney level probably not now since tekken came out but hes is good he mixs his moves up well but I can see the siegfried though really clever and good siegfried does not not fight many maxis alot of it is just poking him in his stance something really quick then taking lead.

[fatal965]

im d the bst maxi player in the usa

[LowClass102588]

I've been having trouble with lag in my matches at time, some of the time I do manage to win.

I'm not good as Maxi, however.

[SSJinchuuriki]

that maxi was pretty good but if i were playing maxi vs him i bet i could give him a good run for his money

[HogisGuy]

mmaxi is my top main! I'm gonna buy an arcade-stick to make it easier for me to make the moves

[azorazan]

damn i hate maxis. when they get in close range, you are never gonna lose em...

[Tieoc]

Unless they're bad, like 90% of maxi's including me to a large degree.

Though I'm not one of the many button mashers, I'm still not as coordinated as this guy, simply because I lack full knowledge of all of Maxi's stances.

[heavenhell86]

Are you on PSN or live? Not to sound like a jerk but maybe I could teach you a bit about Maxi. I play mine a lot more stance-heavy than most others from what I've seen.

[iiIiIIbeaZIIiIii]

and thats why i play maxi at his best... now this karziecd is not even close to a good fighter...

[BifordusMaximus]

If you actually played him you would realize that you were wrong.

[newART99]

I live in Japan and I saw alot better maxis here....

[BifordusMaximus]

@newART99 That goes without saying. every country is considered noobs to Japan when it comes to fighting games.

[newART99]

@BifordusMaximus i dont wanted to say this, my english is not the best,

Krazy is a really good fighter, and u had an online match, lan is always bit different, when u dont got latency, so both of u are really good... but here in tournaments when they take maxi, mitsu, raphael, siegfried/nightmare, xianghu or ivy, maxi always wins.

they play him so perfect and know all his combos at the right time... when u play

maxi perfect u can kill everybody, no matter how u play, hes fast.

[rockafelladw]

@newART99 Your players must not be very good. Maxi is fast but very routine and predictable. He can be easily GI'd and avoided. To me he is low tier.

[heavenhell86]

Krazie is one of the best fighters on a forum donated to high end fighters. He probably wasn't trying too hard, and you can tell since he hardly mixes up. I'm pretty sure Krazie could play Maxi to his "full potential" he just chose not to.

[LordFireHawk]

Ugh I'm watching this vid AGAIN since I just got online, and am probably the worst online maxi player ever. I thought I was good offline too ='[

[BlackAnimeAddict]

This Maxi looks a hell of a lot better than the ones I play. I love playing as him, and I've always played as the nunchaku character in the Soul series. (Li-Long and Maxi)

It still pisses me off that 95% of the Maxi's I fight are button mashing retards. But then I just kill them with my Maxi (dressed as Li-Long), and here's the funny thing, they bitch at ME for being the button masher. WTF?? But I just laugh at them and go back to training mode when they kick me.

[ivonatinkl]

This seems like a good matchup, everytimei play i get stuck with either lag, or who just repeats the same moves over and over....only ever had 1 good game(i lost but it was fun)

[blazefencer12]

a good strategy for maxi is hit and run, play characted with attacks that lets you backup at the same time hahah, talim is a good counter against maxi.

[webbster5296]

lol 3:16

FUCK YOU! hehehe

[TCDownFall]

Bifordus couldn't have put that any better way lol, i must say though Bifordus you did get a bit of an ass kicking

[Lektriks]

I play better as Maxi. No guard impact, no juggles, no good solid combo's? Oh well. Decent match

[BifordusMaximus]

Just becuase you can do all that does not make you a better player. If you really know how to use a character, you can be an effective fighter with minimal effort.

[JAGTHEGEMINI]

So Krazie still fights with Maxi?

SCIV Maxi is so weak, i gave up all hope...

[neatstatus]

I need to learn combinations like the one at 4:05

[DumbassSubscriber]

This is the only reason I quit after I see Maxi as the opponents chosen character because he is the cheapest character in the whole entire fucking series. This pisses me off, now I wanna invite my friend over and kick his ass again (his fav. character is maxi). God Damn Jesus Fucking Christ!

[jckh100]

shut the hell up the cheapest characters ion the series are players like Nightmare or siegfried and Kilik because there wepons reach across the fucking map... and they just grap you and poke you from the other side of the ring with their swords or shitty little poles....

[jayparrish1]

@jckh100 "Shitty little poles" I LOL'D :P

[heavenhell86]

I don't really consider him cheap. Its pretty difficult to memorize all his stance attacks and stance loops. He also has a tendency to slow down when changing stances which can make it hard to apply preasure. So when a person becomes really good with Maxi in my opinion they have every right to use the devirsity of stances and pokes he has to offer to their advantage. I mean, they took teh time to learn them.

[Quackbillion]

3:13 made me cringe.

[ElementalHeroAMW]

defence is the best offence.

[tobogogo5]

No offense, but this guy is BEAST....

He's kind of whipping your ass.

Also, he seems to win when he doesn't have much health. Interesting!

[pigxman]

maybe he wants to give the fighter false hope and then crush them

[hammertlme]

oh shit, you've got online vids of mikosu and krayziecd also. i've played them both offline.  mikosu is good (partly cuz of me), krayziecd is beast. alot of those lows you did i know wouldn't hit him offline. sieg lows are terrible.

[BifordusMaximus]

Really though I have only played SC4 offline once and that was the day of release, so tournaments are an automatic no for me. For the most part I prefer the unpredictableness of online. tI thows frame counting into the water. In real life you cant count the frame or speed of someones punch and expect them to punch at the same speed and force every time.

[hammertlme]

that's the best argument for sc4 online play I've heard, interesting. I totally disagree, but it does make sense.

[ichater]

Bifordus... I think you should give a tourney a try sometime if anything just to see how you would do. YOU GI well online and online players tend to have better prediction than reflex so i think it would be... interesting to see how you would do. Furthermore you post clips on 8wayrun so id say your reasonably well known. Dont write it off :)

[N4xi]

You siegfried is pretty good.

I love playing against Maxi because of how easy he is to perform Guard Impacts against.

After fight one or two rounds you should be able to see exactly when his hits will land, and even perform Just Impacts.

You also need to use forward K a little more, its fast and will stop Maxis combos, usually with a counter hit.

[DestinStrider]

Lol, Krayzie is one of the best psn players period, and I think he said maxi is his main, even though maxi isn't a good character as far as tiers go. Really, this tactic probably wouldn't have worked. Haha :)

[RJSCUnleash]

THE BEST gameplay of Maxi I've seen in a loooong time. It's nice to see a fellow maxi player. Impressive!

[Gurcat]

That Guy Is Really Good. He Knows Almost Every Aspect of Maxi No That's Impressive.

[Gurcat]

Now That's Impressive!

[Noitora22]

man i would u deal with a really good taki character cuz my friend is a beast with taki and he just owns me way too fast

[Realmasterorder]

I like maxi cause he is kind of an underdog in most tourneys but a good player can do some crazy stuff with him.

Cervy is not that good overall just don't fall into his A+B stun combo that does a lot of damage (if possible learn how to shake).

His moves are pretty slow and he is usually predictable but can deal a decent amount of damage if you get caught with "big" moves.

[ichater]

A+B, 2A+B, WRA is my fav cheap combo with cervy! at the end you can either grab or repeat or if your near a wall 4kk to start a wall combo.

[DestinStrider]

A+B is shakeable.  And actually pretty easy to shake.

[ichater]

im well aware. Cervy isnt a main of mine even though ive nailed his i214b

[DestinStrider]

Well, you called it a cheap combo. How's it cheap if you can shake and punish the second hit of it? If anything it's unsafe to do.

iGDR is the same timing as sophie and cass' justs Not really justs as they are "Hit B when you hit 4." iTP is the harder one. :P I love seeing a cervy who can pull iTP out of nowhere all the time. They're normally a challenge.

[ichater]

ahk so as i said... cervy isnt a main of mine so i have No idea what your talking about... sorry.

I main Seig. Ive even got clips on youtube if you wanna see??

[DestinStrider]

iTP is instant teleport. it's 214:6. Done really fast. :P iGDR is the move you described. 214:B

[superSpartanjunior]

what are these numbers standing for...i´m new to sc and beat ´em ups

[DestinStrider]

Look at your number pad.

789

456

123

Now look at your controller, and imagine those numbers over the pad. (2 is down, 4 is back, 6 is forward...) And thats what they mean.

[BradRy2]

How do you deal with a good Cervantes player?
