alex notes:

basically to play ideally you should be a robot that forces meaty lariat into a raw 50/50 powerbomb or s.mp mixup as much as humanly possible.
most setups are attempts to make it as braindead as possible (the button that’s meaty on quickrise becomes a timing whiff for normal rise).


frametraps (tested on chun cr. jab [3f]):

= jumping short [deep]-> immedaite s.mp (counterhit) -> whatever
= jumping strong [deep] -> immediate fwd+hp (crush counter) -> df.hp -> knee (ex knee midscreen), mixup on block
= cr.jab, s.jab
= cr. jab, cr.jab
= s.strong, s.jab
= fwd+hp, s.strong (xx mp chop on counterhit, or confirm link into super)
= s.hp xx hk slash elbow (trades, immediately do knee to juggle, ex knee midscreen)

note: after cr.lk, any button loses. cr.lk sucks.
note: in corner, doing walk back -> stand hp xx heavy elbow combos on counterhit (shimmy!) and leads into cr.hp -> knee into oki, gross

oki

after aa knee
[quickrise]
= dash stand mp (meaty)
= dash hp powerbomb (meaty)
[normal rise]
= dash whiff s.mp, whiff s.mk, fwd+hp (meaty crush counter)

after forward throw
[quickrise]
= stand hk (meaty), df.hp -> knee on crush counter
= immediate lk slash elbow (meaty), combos into cr.mp on counterhit (can v-trigger -> sweep)
[normal rise]
= stand hk, whiff cr.lp, immediate fwd+hp (meaty crush counter)
= immediate lk slash elbow, whiff s.mp, immediate fwd+hp (meaty crush counter)

after powerbomb (all including ex) (same as forward throw, but powerbomb leaves you very slightly further away so you need to use df.hp to juggle after crush counter lariat)
[quickrise]
= stand hk (meaty), df.hp -> knee on crush counter
= immediate lk slash elbow (meaty), combos into cr.mp on counterhit
[normal rise]
= stand hk, whiff cr.lp, immediate fwd+hp (meaty crush counter)
= immediate lk slash elbow, whiff s.mp, immediate fwd+hp (meaty crush counter)

after ex flash chop
[quickrise]
= dash, slightly delay fwd+hp (crush counter) -> df.hp -> knee (ex knee midscreen), mixup on block
= dash, slightly delay cr.mk (xx vtrigger -> fierce xx etc.) [low]
= immediate mp stungun (hold away) [throw] [safe on delay rise, but alex at frame disadvantage]
= very slightly delayed mp stomp [high]
= corner only: immediate whiff cr.lp, immediate fwd+mp overhead (meaty) [high]
[normal rise]
= dash, do fwd+hp three times (third one is meaty) (have to delay slightly)
= very slightly delayed mp stomp, whiff c.mk, immediate fwd+hp (meaty)

after mk, hk stomp (lk stomp has longer knockdown?)
[forces hard knockdown!]
= immediately whiff fwd+hp, immediate second fwd+hp (meaty crush counter)
= immediately whiff cr.hk, meaty hp power bomb
= hold up, empty jump (‘safe jumps’ ex sbk), press a button and you get hit

Is it just me, or was that really poorly played by both of them? Not impressed at all, especially for their rank.

FM shook off a first round loss to almost double P the other guy what more can he do hahah.

Rebelo is from Ontario right? We used to play all the time in Injustice. Solid GL. I wonder how shitty their connection is. Looks like lots of getting away with crap because online.

rebelo lives in montreal from what i know

he plays a lot of ki, got 3rd place at the world cup and has a particularly aggressive/buttons-y/high risk high reward style of play in every game

That first round was garbage, just sayin.

i thought rebelo was from TO

i hate the bad vidoe game

He’s from Toronto and his connection is the equivalent of a potato.

his twitter says he lives in mississauga, so yeah, i guess it’s TO area

and yeah a lot of people talk about rebelo’s connection being kinda bad even in ki, so i imagine florida to toronto using sfv’s netcode is not gonna be all that great

God bless Ford’s awesome pandering

wait derryk are the floor seats located next to you?

Yeh bro, me and Bork have two seats, gamerbee and his GF have two and I have one more floor seat plus a GA seat left!

ohhh ok

i’ll get my evo info sorted out this weekend

I’m gonna look this up… if it’s in a stadium we should be able to have BEERS this time right???

One would imagine. I would be really disappointed if it were not the case

we’ll sneak in a 40 of big bear either way, no worries m8

also never forget

cool, if you go to the character select screen and your cursor defaults to alex, and then you change characters, you will play the version 1.01 patch of whatever character you changed to. this means 3f prejump and whatever other changes to hitboxes and stuff.

if your cursor does NOT default to alex, then changing characters picks the correct 1.02 version

applies to both online and offline play

this basically means if you ever pick alex, ever, and you go back to character select, you have to go back to the main menu to clear the bug, or else pick another character, go into the match (with v 1.01), then go back to character select to clear the bug. if you play in a battle lounge online with character select turned on, and your favorite character in “battle settings” is alex, then your cursor defaults to him and you will always pick a version 1.01 character no matter what

it has no doubt affected tournaments already and i guess they will have to ban alex until they fix it

Dude no wonder I was getting old option selects to work. I had Alex as my default character then I’d switch to cammy and she still had her old OSes
