Arcade Edition Match Up: Fei Long

Blooddrunk · February 17, 2012, 9:31am

Optional Run Slide Mix-Up: a.) After Run Slide, Dash Forward twice then do crHp to start your combo. This beats Throw and Crouch Tech on wake. If Fei block the crHp, then it can work as a frame trap against him. Example 1; crHp, crMp then buffer either Medium Tatsu, Run Slide or Ex Hozanto. This beats any normal Up-Kick and can make Ex Up-Kick whiff. Example 2; crHp, stMp into Low Hozanto to beat any normal attack and Rekka. As a mix-up, you can Throw after the second forward dash if Fei is defensive. b.) After Run Slide, Dash Forward twice then Back Dash quickly. Any Up-Kick from Fei will whiff and if he does a late Throw, you can punish it with stMp or Target Combo. c.) After Run Slide, Dash Forward Once then do crHp as a bait. Your also at the perfect range to punish a potential back dash with Ex Hozanto. There’s also alot of other things you can incorporate in this set-up such as Overheads. (note: This set-up also works on many other characters such as Cammy).

What does it do against chicken wing?

^Practically nothing. Low chicken wing crosses up, Medium chicken wing whiffs, Fierce chicken wing gets stuffed and Ex chicken wing also whiffs against set-up A above. Chicken wing stuffs set-up B and whiffs over you in set-up C, but you can just block.

Should find a way to have a set up that will bait CW, so you can do TK Izuna. I know there that’s st hp OS.

Set-ups that stuff Normal Flame Kicks: 1. Bushing Chain, FADC Forward Dash Twice into Elbow Drop (Fei must tech). 2. (corner) Low Tatsu then perform an immediate Elbow Drop (Fei must tech) 3. (corner) Forward Throw, then immediately Back Dash Twice, then Forward Jump with Mk or Hk. Some thing I noticed is that you can combine these set-ups together. For example; Forward Throw set-up then do the Low Tatsu set-up or the Bushing Chain set-up to follow. If Fei get caught with the Elbow Drop then you can continue your combo. One set-up can earn you a potential dizzy or just big damage, especially if Fei is antsy. (note: again these set-ups are made to stuff Normal Flame Kicks only).

Great work as always, don’t think this has been mentioned but on reaction cr.mk will make mid ranged chicken wings whiff (Fei will land on the other side) and a cr.lk > bushin chain follow is possible. If you time it late the cr.mk will trip Fei for a mixup.

At mid range use cr.mp OS EX Hozanto or run slide if they’re trying to get in with rekka’s. It will beat the startup clean.

Good tips Arma!

I feel Ultra 2 is far more useful in the match up. Everything gets punished. 2nd Rekka, Flame Kick > FADC, a blocked overhead. Everything except for LK Flying Kick.

Set Ups that can Stuff Normal Flame Kicks part 2: 1. Forward Throw, Forward Jump then whiff Izuna Drop at the last second causing a slight float to occur, Forward Jump into Elbow Drop or Cross Up Mk. For the corner use Forward Throw, Neutral Jump then at the last second whiff Izuna Drop, then either Elbow Drop or Cross Up Mk. 2. Back Throw, then immediately whiff Normal Slide then Elbow Drop to stuff an immediate flame kick or Low Bushin Flip for Uncrouchable - Obey’s setup. 3. For the corner, Close stHk, Bushin Chain then at the last second before Fei Long drops input Guy’s Fierce Tatsu, then immediately Elbow Drop or Cross Up Mk. Or Close stHk, Target Combo into Low Hozanto, then wait at the last second to use Guy’s Fierce Tatsu, then immediately Elbow Drop or Cross Up Mk. 4. For a Whiff Punish use, crMp into Ex Hozanto, then immediately Elbow Drop or Cross Up Mk in the corner. (Note: Fei Long has many ways out of these set ups so use them sparringly).
