C.Viper Trial Mode Thread (Console Version)

ibuki’s are really similar to viper’s. once you get the SJC timing down with viper, she’s a cinch.
viper’s trials arent a be-all-know-all challenge. i think each character falls into one of a few groups in trying to teach you about the game, but once you master the trials of one character from each category, you’d find the others in the same group to be simple. for example:

overall dexterity and SJC (viper/ibuki/gen)
plinks (abel/guile/gief)
piano/slides (blanka/honda)
timing (makoto/juri/dhalsim/elf)
plain easy (balrog)

Well I finally finished vipers trials after being stuck on 21 22 and 24 for a bit. I finally got my FFF to EX Seismo down so 24 and 21 were cake. For 22 I don’t know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but after landing it a couple of time watching my inputs in training mode I decided to go try it in trial mode and could not get it. After an hour or so I came across this video [media=youtube]eZoy0VNq79Q[/media] Not that it is helpful in a match but if you are trying to get past the trials just to complete this makes it a HELL of alot easier. The video is from vanilla but the same method works with s.lp but the basic idea is you SJC a FP TK from your lp and FADC to ultra, and it still counts for high jump. I know its a lame out method, but hey i wanted to be done with her trials. Now I just need to practice SJCin my ultra for real in training mode ahhh so much less pressure.

Whats the point of completing the trials by cheating? If your having trouble with the St.lp SJC into ultra heres a solution. Buffer a 236 motion then hit lp, then 268 Ultra.

To be done with them. The method you mentioned is what I use when I am in training mode. Also the same reason I cheated 21 and did FFF xx Ex Seismo SJC MP TK to Ultra, I find much more practical uses for that than a feint into ultra, because I am more consistent with this than trying a feint right into ultra I usually mess up. I do agree it is a lame out method, but after landing a SJC ultra in training mode a couple of times and not being able to do it in the trial mode it can get frustrating. Like I said I still practice SJC into ultra in training every day because I am still at about 45-50% with it on lp, while crouching medium is more like 60%. I wouldn’t recommend using the above method i posted in a match, but I am sure there are people who are not viper players who would like to complete the trials.

To be fair trial 22 is pretty useless, if you’ll do sjc normal ultra in a match it’s either s.mp c.mp sjc ultra or s.lk s.lk c.mp sjc ultra. Both are a lot easier aswell.

Hey I am trying to do C.Viper’s Hard Trial 3 in Vanilla SF4 and I keep getting the cr.lk into High Jump but the ultra isn’t coming out. Can I buffer it so I can do J.HK, Standing LK, 236, cr.lp, 2369, ultra 1? or since its a crouching lp do I have to do J.HK, Standing LK, D+cr.lp, DF, F, UF, QCF Ultra 1. I am having little difficulty getting to High Jump but I can’t get it to cancel instantly into Ultra 1. Is it possible I am inputting too fast because it seems like I am doing it too slow since she jumps before Ultra comes out. Someone please help me! I just want to do it!
