Blanka Video Thread

So fun how this ryu is acting so bad all match long but is able to pull FADC to ultra and trade hit to ultra on reaction like he have light speed fingers :looney:

That ryu seemed like he had no match up exp against Blanka. He attempted to even block an ultra when its a free srk lol

Nice play man, one thing i would say is try and do the c.mk st.lp > ball more. You got quite a few crumbles on him and if you can pull this off it makes it so much easier. Sometimes rainbow rolls can get you in alot of trouble so do it if you want to get on the other side of the player rather than trying to hit him.

Yea, I heard him say that he meant to do an ex dp but it didn’t come out. I don’t know how came out with a low RH if he tried to do that though. He’s mainly a zangief player but switched to Ryu because another teammate was using Zangief. Even though he wasn’t bad with Ryu I could tell he didn’t know what to do zoning wise. Kept jumping in to my anti air’s and didn’t know how to space his fb’s so that I couldn’t punish. His Gief is much better.

The rainbows, no doubt. That’s some scrub stuff I need to cut out. Works online against noobs that don’t know how to block crossups which half way decent players won’t fall for. I’m gonna work on the c.mk st.lp combo more. I usually go for just low mk straight to ball from the jump in but it makes more sense to throw in the link to give more charge time. I don’t utilize punishing crumples like I should. So I should hop> c.mk> s. lp> ball is best after crumple?

Terrible matchup for Blanka, but Nishikin does OK. Notice that Blanka is finished if gets trapped in the corner. EX-Up ball is useless in this match. Can’t throw out any random balls either because of kara TU on block.

great stuff

DJ Vest (Blanka) vs Justin Wong (Rufus)

From DreamLab’s tourny via GetYourTournament. Some interesting Blanka gimmicks going on.

Opps, I missed this. Sorry. Yes, I use the slide method.

Me in a couple of money matches. I mindfuck the Balrog badly by hop up balling over and over (and he shouldve punised but meh) and then short ball throwing him when it mattered. He was so confused.

Then I just raped a pretty good Sagat out here in Vegas. These matches were built off of much shit talk before hand:

Combofiend (Blanka, Abel) vs Justin Wong (Rufus)

This is Dreamlab tourny finals on 12/27/2009. Link via Get Your Tournament.

Never realized how good Blanka’s s.HK was in the Rufus match.

Blanka was looking really sick in the begining. What happend? Did Justin Wong get better or did combofiend fudge up? I blame it on inconsistency. Are we ever going to stop seeing Blanka in second place?

#1 female SF4 player in Japan plays Mago. Must watch.

In the first vid @ around 9:30 the commentator shouts “MIZOTERU BOMBA!” when Blanka does the throw Ultra. Guess we know who invented it now. :lol:

How did she cross up with the hop and go straight into ultra?

Brilliant!!

Instead of just going back forward back forward, you can wiggle the stick each way like 8 times before pressing PPP, charge buffer gives you enough time so that you still keep the ultra from a cross-hop.

That was absolutely incredible. I was speechless at the end, she clearly knows what she’s doing.

LOL Mago got raped with shenanigans. I just want to bang my head against the wall.

But that’s not mago though…I don’t recall him looking like this…If that’s really the girl …she is really godlike…incredible match

Yes but the charge direction changed as soon a she hopped to the other side.

Just posted something about this in the Misconceptions thread now. To perform a cross-up Ultra, you have to complete the motion before you cross over. The game gives a few extra frames to press the buttons (that’s how 50/50 Ultra works). As long as the game registers back, forward, back, forward you can perform an Ultra.
