Thanks for the advice. I used it and then I played an offensive Sagat which really put me off. I tried to zone him while also maintaing a close distance to avoid a fireball war if he started to. I tried to anti air him at long distance with her st.hk but it was only effective at long range. if I tried anything else his j.mp would get me. Then he would corner me and I would be stuck in the guessing game if I should tech or block. Since Chun-Li's c.mp is a really slow move if I tried to tech he would be able to go into c.mk into knee. Otherwise he would grab me and keep me in the corner. I guess its just really difficult lol
Your trouble is that you use Chun. She is probably the 2nd worst character in the game. Just worthless. Use Cammy and just mash uppercut on an offensive Sagat. You should come out ahead
Haha thanks, I really like Chun Li but its fun actually winning with Cammy. Maybe I should use air throws more..
Sagat's jumping MP is really weird his hurt-box would shrink with that move. Anti-air with Chun-Li is extremely difficult but time your ex spinning bird kicks well and get a knock down. Here is one advice to move forward while still keeping the ''down'' charge: Focus, then press down + forward to dash. This is good coz you can use the focus to go through projectiles, and still keep the down ''charge'' if he dares to jump. Focusing fireballs would build your ultra meter, so at far screen your game isn't actually terrible. Remember a well timed Hazanshu can go over low tiger shots too. CrHP is a low move that will put you slightly forward without standing to inch over high tiger shots. Once you knocked him down it is down to the her meaty mix ups... throw, sweep, overhead, cross ups... Your overhead Hazanshu is good becoz you can combo into ex lightning legs and then ultra. Or you could do overhead, normal lightning legs then super. This match up is hard because you don't have much answers to a good pressuring Sagat, not even your ex wake ups are reliable However you won't do too bad if they just lame back because of your Ultra they can't just fireball you all day Personally I like to do mix ups like ''cross up, crLK then Hazanshu, forcing them to block high, low, then high again. If they ever loses their defense, then ex kicks into ultra here we go! A well timed cross up will beat reversal uppercuts too the downside is, on the US server it is mostly laggy and Chun requires some heavy timing... just quit on within the first few seconds if you think lag is unbearable... (no one is gonna blame you) Chun can not survive heavy lag but a brain-dead Sagat probably can
lol your pressure WAS mostly 80% throws, but I see now you're using more frame traps, good work the best Akuma pressure I have ever encountered was from Teck, that Akuma will utilize his 100% offensive options You should see how he can use demon flip -> kick to hit a cross up almost every time. There is a special spacing and timing of the divekick after flipping, that if you hit early Akuma will land in front, and late to land behind. Search for reps uploaded by }{t}{ then you will know what I mean
Thanks alot again. I will try to use it later, Sagat is really popular so I doubt I will have trouble finding one.
I can do well with quite a lot of characters so if you're interested in all sort of match ups you can send me an invite. my GCID is the same as the one here ~[KaBoom]~
So I'm playing AE. I finally landed srk fadc ultra 2 with evil ryu. Sigh, it does like no damage. And for Ken, I think srk, fadc, Ultra 2 should land, even though it doesn't. Ultra 2 sorta feels bad.
Weekly Revolt #2 Results Congratulations to psxsquall, the winner of the 2nd Weekly Revolt Tournament! Week 2 had a relatively small bracket, but featured two new entrants, CT.Sg (aka HeartWong) and VaroFN (aka Draco's Wrath). We hope they'll be back again in future events. Clink here for the Challonge Bracket Results. Link to the replay from Week 2: http://www.twitch.tv/fffan7777/b/432549285
So have you guys seen this yet? xD http://www.toptiertactics.com/18206/ultra-street-fighter-4-version-20143-balance-update-leaked/
There's nothing wrong with throws I already know what you mean. I actually watched some of his replays when I started playing this game as Akuma. It's the only Akuma I've ever seen using something so effective as EX Dive Kick to add more pressure after a cancelable blockstring.
Does anyone remember 'N3ro's reset' that someone posted here a few months ago? Something about cr.HP, SJC, air burn kick into ultra...? I can't find it. Also, Capt, maybe put info about the ReVolt tourney in the youtube vids?
