Raiden is one of the best players to use against the computer (not bad
vs. humans either)  A good jump kick is always usefull against the
computer (which is why its so easy with nijas, cage, or kano) but
since raidens is medeocre you have to use his jump punch :>

One very effective method vs. the computer (best for kano, kang, and
sonya) is to crouch and block.  When the computer does the weeny kick
(crouching kick) do a hop punch.  If it hits him on the ground (not as
much fun but good nonetheless...).  If it hits him standing blocked
(oh well try again, and again, again... if you want).  If you miss
altogether then you fly to the other side and redo from start.

HOWEVER.. if the computer tries to jump with you and you hit him, you
can do another hop-punch, and a dive before he hits the ground.  Great
damage!!


BTW this does not work at ALL against the ninjas their straight up
jump kick has to high a priority.  (real pain when you get into the
corner)

to those who may know... what is the best way to get out of the corner
against an angry sub-zero or scorpion when your raiden?

when i say angry i refer to when you win to many matches to well the
computer sometimes gets "mad" and won't make any mistakes, he just
advances, and attacks, blocks and retaliates (very annoying).

when a ninja gets you in the corner there is nothing you can do. as
far as i know.  if you stand and take the punches he will back up but
if you try to jump out he will nail you with a jump-kick.  crouching
in the corner is futile.
