The old matchup thread was nice and props to everyone that added to the discussion there, but it’s time to clean things up and have a proper updated match up OP. So. Here it is. Round 2 of the Blanka Match Ups thread. The original thread won’t close up until this one is fully running…so don’t worry about any current discussions being cut off. :)

I’m not claiming to know everything, I’m just trying to keep our information in here organized.

Quick info = obvious move vs. move info that you should know regardless of strategy
Example: Slide > Fireball…we should all know that one before even discussing further

Basic Tier Information:

Japanese Wiki = This wiki over here

Event Hubs April 09 = Event Hubs’ April 2009 Tier List

Popular SRK Opinion = Based off of what *I* comprehend everyone thinks the match is like. Includes discussions with SRK people outside of the forums like shooting the shit IRL or on IRC. Fuck numbers for this, because numbers aren’t the fucking point here.

If there are other tier tables online with match up numbers, please point me towards them.
