    does pai really lack depth? anyone here use her stances or are they useless? also for some reason people tell me that she is weak, is that true?

    Nah, she was plenty of depth with a lot of unique moves that some of the other characters don't have. I use her stances to some extent. i rarely use b,k,d mostly the stance i use is b, p+k+g... but for the most part they aren;t the best stances in the game. And yes she is one of the weaker characters, but her moves are lightning fast which make all her weak hits add up very very quickly.

    No, she does not lack depth. I don't find her b+P+K+G to be all that useful against better players, but her b+K has been made a middle attack in Version C and her Bokutai moves are quite good.

    She could be considered a little weak in Version B, but I think that is certainly no longer the case in Version C.

    Woohoo!! Made 4th Dan today! =)
    My pai is certainly getting stronger!
    A very very nice thing a found out, it does amazing damage!!
    Do uf+k, if that connects on a counter or even regular, go for pai's command throw where she spins u around then throws...i dunno the name, but its like 8,9,6,3,2,1,4+P+G, does amazing damage! Also ive been trying an extra punch in with, db+p, like db+p then P PPKK, it looks cool, and just a little more damage i think. Also now when i start i go for the b+p on a counter then i'd follow up with D+k,k /versus/images/icons/smile.gif
    My pai is getting there!!

    Cappo, if you get b+p on MC at least go for ff+pk. I think it puts you in a really nice position to attack the TRer as well. Avoid using kick, sweep at all times /versus/images/icons/smile.gif

    0 Dan, even after on a 9 winning streak.... Still no ranking battle. I still dun get it. I sure that if i accumulate 5 win point, i get a ranking battle...

    73 wins and 32 lost

    Mine Pai keep losing to those Higher Dan Jacky /versus/images/icons/frown.gif. They side step/counter most of the attacks I made. Jacky attack beat mine attack at close range... He poke high and low. I just sux at defending.... Any good tricks against Jacky? And i hate Wolf too..

    Help!!!

    I hit 5th dan with Pai, im happy!

    After a knockdown on your opponent, if u see them trying to get up quick and your not near them go for F+G+K, or FF+G+K, if they block that do a sidestep quicky because there prolly gonna attack u back, but if it connects go for K,P,K
    Thats a good little strat if u wanna make a higher ranking, IMO

    Anyway, mine opening.

    k,k. They hit 90% in the opening. Followed by pouce. f+G+K. Then PPP2K if Hit.

    Why dont u go for a df+k, at start followed by a db+p, then go for a nice pppkk juggle =)
    Do you start with k,k all the time? Try start with one k, then if that hits go for k,p,k

    Yeh K is a great floater for dumb people who dont block it /versus/images/icons/smile.gif its a tough move though. For people who have blocking problems I usually do K juggles from her cartwheel tsukame. Usually P~P,P,K,K or just that K,P,K. I say never do the 66G+P that stuff just gets you slapped or its usually blocked. Do it on scrubs or you are winning and you can afford to fool around /versus/images/icons/smile.gif And hawk if you are talking about KK in the start of the round I usually do an 9KK. Or for people who like to rush out. I go right into sway stance in the begin, they whiff and you can just do any SS move ya want.

    I reached 6th dan a little while ago!
    I ran into this hero pai=3. something...lol
    i went on a 23 winning streak. I wanna try my strats on humans, cause the cpu seems dumb sometimes :meh: They try to attack you when ur not even near them! Try taking a couple steps back, wait for the computer to try doing a silly move, then punish them.
    9KK, KPK. I dont think ive tried that before, but i will next time i play.

    I hit 7th dan...i havent seen any Emperors or anything, highest i think ive seen was a Subjugator Pai :meh:
    So ice-9 u really think Pai's stance, are effective against good players? Maybe... would u mind explaining to me?

    Shrug, what's there to explain? Try the moves out yourself and it should be obvious.
