What's the best scroll that compliments each playstyle?

For example drifting.

 

street














sike

 

Range: Shaolin Tiger
Drift: Stinger
Anti-Drift: Blood Wind Ninjitsu
Pressure: Shoot Boxing

This is how I see the scrolls for quite a long time. Not sure about the newer scrolls. And I wouldn't include the rare scrolls since they are unattainable for the most part.

 

Fixed

 

PKK is super nice for drifting, Dragon too. Range possibly Persona, I really like it. Pressuring scrolls hmm, mao gong, shoot boxing. There are a lot of good scrolls

 

tru

 

Lol

 

Shadow Ninjitsu is the best for every playstyle since you don't actually have to fight.

 

Lmaoo Shadow Nin is g0d

 

Any scroll can be used to compliment a play style depending on how you play with it. However, for that bread and butter answer i'm sure you'd rather hear:


Drifting: Scrolls that move a lot are good for wrapping yourself around the opponent or getting around their guard usually with the jab move or even a slide-dodge; (I.e. Muhon's Ninjutsu, Pa Kua Kwon, Stinger, Praying Mantis, Tongbeiquan, etc.)

Example:




Turtling: Scrolls that have a fast start up on their combos or work really well out of guard. Usually for punishing from block in close-quarter combat. (I.e. Shoot Boxing, Blood Wind Ninjutsu, Shaolin Tiger, Zin Taekwondo, etc.)

Example:






Baiting/Spacing: Scrolls that are best used from a distance. Using the long range kicks/punches to keep the opponent outside of punish range. (I.e. Wing Chun, Cyclone, Shaolin Snake, Volador, Capoeria, etc.)

Example:




High-Pressure/Agro-Agression: Scrolls that can easily pressure opponents to death with fast hard to punish combos. They work best when aggression is constantly maintained to prevent retaliation or a change in the pace of the battle by smothering the opponent. (I.e. Hitman, Shoot Boxing, Muay Boran, Shaolin Tiger, etc.)

Example:


There are other styles and scroll compliments that exist, like counter based play styles or jump drifting, but these are just a handful to get you started.

Yeah this ^

 

BWN isn't anti drift at all if you miss an attack you're fucked

 

I'm gonna need you to ft9 me.

 

Blood Wind Ninjutsu is not an Anti-Drift scroll lol. An anti-drift scroll would be something with wide hitboxes like Capoeria or Drunken Master.

 

Levi if you can determine the knockback angles on the groundhit. One hit fence and edge kills on moon. And the hitbox is ridiculous.

 

Ram - Drunken Master

 

my bad, I just say BWN is anti-drift because of its charge punch. You can angle it in the direction where you think they will be walking so pretty much what came to mind when I thought of it.

there's like other charge scrolls too but I guess I have personal bias for BWN's first punch range

 

Only people with experience should post on this thread.
I'm seeing some real idiotic posts.

 

Drift: Stinger/ Hitman
Anti: Agreed on bloodwind
Pressure: Pkk, any boxing scroll, muhon's
Range: The new shaolin snake, tiger
