True. I barely even read here and have seen at least 2 or 3 other dudes trying to make a case for stungun.
Yeah…I really dont understand the facination behind the super. I guess it just stems from the fact that it’s a gimmicky setup super and that makes it fun for scrubs.
it definitely makes it fun for players of any caliber. I don’t think that’s it, I think it’s just that it makes it easier to win.
lol I use Hyper bomb aganist Akuma
you can get free Hyper backdrops from hurricane wake up pressure, demon flip slides and dash under jumps
also, free hyper bombs from teleports and defended hurricane kicks/low mk,hk
its a fun super
alex is terrible and so is the super but goddammit if it isnt fun to pull off in a match
Alex isn’t terrible! :sad:
shut yo filfy mouf!
I prefer SAIII,SAII is good…but they don’t make Stun sometimes.
Return of the Mack.
Use Stun Gun Headbutt for the moral victory. It’s one of those moves where you say "Oh you F***in suck man! You got hit by Stun Gun Headbutt! You frickin n00b"
That’s what I use it for. But otherwise, I’d say that using Hyper Bomb or Boomerang Raid is defintely a better option because of the EX moves. Like it’s been said before use EX stomp to crush Fireball whores and use EX clothesline (i’m guessing flash elbow? Alex doesn’t have a clothesline, that’s Hugo). I tend to rely on fp flash chop sometimes for free throws and as a retaliation. And against yun i automatically go into a crouching fierce anti-air to counter dive kicks. Pretty effective. Just with Yun, rush him down. Anyone else you can get away with playing the patience game, just not him. Yun is deadly if you let him dictate the pace of the match. Just don’t let him gain an advantage (Don’t get swept or thrown) and mix up your attack levels and Yun will be put to rest.
and as a side note:
NEVER, EVER, use the spinning DDT in a real match unless you are trying to close gaps and are too lazy to dash. It is a useless move unless you’re playing the scrubbiest of scrubs.
I honestly don’t understand where this mentality comes from. What the fuck are you people doing with the DDT to file it under useless!?
I agree.
Well to answer your question, I’ve seen people try to rely on it to trick the opponent into a thow but I’ve always seen it coming and punished it . The range is pretty ridiculuous IMO. I’ve never used it really in tournament play because I like to play safe that way. I don’t want to throw myself out there and hope I don’t run into someone that can punish me. On the rare occasion that I do use it, it’s when I get a knockdown in the corner and I use it for corner pressure. I almost always get that one, but otherwise I stay away from the DDT.
Fair enough. But I wouldn’t classify it as useless.
The DDT you should be using the most is the LK version. You can catch would be parries and throw attempts with DDTs on the opponents wake up. Once the fear sets in you can go to work with meaties and you array of ticks.
Use it to compliment Alex’s throw game.
For the corner pressure that I mentioned above, I do use the LK version. I do like to use DDT’s every now and then against those annoying Chun players who like to block my attacks and then try to retalitate with a throw. LK DDT does work in that case, but as an attack overall…I would say that it has very limited uses and is not as versatile as some of Alex’s other attacks. It’s used as a scare tactic, and that mainly works on those who deviate from their plans when they see that plan A ain’t workin’. But some players just keep using that same tired routine and then they know that I’m going to DDT and they counter it. So it’s like Plan A turned into Plan A 2.0
what happened to this thread? Did someone delete a large chunk of it?
Well, there were like…two threads of similar nature that were going on here, I think…so some of the information overlaps and it may seem like some is missing.
I remember someone saying something about like, a video or something? What did he say? Who said it? These are things I have forgotten; the long, long, looooooooooong amount of time that has passed since I heard them has robbed me of any memory of them.
Little known fact: stun gun beats stun gun.
Way to give away the ending to video. Thanks, man. Fuck.
Plz use the spoilers function.
