How do I keep rushdown Vega and Chun off my Yama?
not to knock your thread but that is very bad advice this is a bad match sagat hp is better than yama fk do not roll super most of the time you will get caught if the person is smart serpent slash is a good idea but the best thing to do is trip its the best thing you have watch out for stand fierce thats the worst thing 4 you
this is easy most of the time i find myself chasing them for chun wjat she is prolly doing to you is stand mp short jump lk or some spinning bird kick traps what you can do to stop the mp is sweep from a good range far away if she does short jump lk short jump back and mk
although s. RK has more range than Sagat’s s. FP… Sagat’s s. FP has more speed… so… Sagat’s s. FP ownzorz Yama’s s. RK… same reason y jabs beat out a lot of fierces and roundhouses… and some specials for that matter. I think counters are very helpful against FP crazy Sagats…
now’s here’s my question… which is greater… Sagat’s c. FP or s. FP? u can beat his c. FP with a jab 
although very hard.
Jcaddles not to be rude…but I am giving advice through my expeirences in my thread…I share this thread to the world and my advice is good…Standing HK can fuck SagaT up if thrown early or just right on time…Trust me I know it works real well…I use Yama’s toungue move on vega jump ins…Its all about zoning the opponent with Yama…he’s like a gangsta Dhalsim…

PS- Sup Onikage and the Reboot Crew!!!
Indeed the s.FK is powerful against Sagat. I use N-Yama (currently learning S-Yama.) and my friend does the c.Lp x2, c.Fp combo with Sagat. OMG so much block damage… I try to back away and slash him or do the anti-airs but it’s very hard. Thanks for all the advice everyone, my name is Eddie nice to meet you 
IMO Yama gets into trouble when Sagat gets up close… his s. RK is useless against Sagat’s s. FP and c. FP when in close quarters… unless u have a groove that can RC, Yama’s in trouble… anyone care to differ?
thanks for posting Eddie…Welcome to tha squad…Keep posting your shit homey!!! tHanks again for the support…all of you guys and gals out there…without you this thread wouldnt be crackin’…
-B.Maybe a P-Yama would be best for Sagat’s up close attacks but who said parrying is easy? Also using the taunt/counter is very useful against Sagat’s s.Fp and j.FK.
Use S yama and dodge that shit it counters sagats moves:And for basic Yama…Standing Hk isnt good for close quarters I never said that I just said from a good distance…Like I keep saying it’s about zoning with Yama…

Doc is rite. With Yama, u generally want to keep ur opponent within s. RK range… but not too close! The way i see it is if Sagat get’s in close… u’ll either be able to RC or JD/Parry and counter attack… because every groove has on or the other. Just have to learn how to RC or JD/Parry at close range ^_^, then u’ll have a L337 Yama!
i think the best thing to do is use the sweep if sagat use stand fierce it will beat the rh every time but not the sweep
yama’s hardest match has to be vega if you dont have a groove with a short jump youre in trouble the thing you have to do is knock vega down to whatever it takes take a few hits if you have to bu once you get on him do not get off short jump him all day sweep is also very effective in this match and if you catch him jumping jump up fierce
how do you guys deal with short jumps besides parry jd or roll the things i try are down fierce or jump back mk tell me what you guys do i know a lot about yama close to everything so you got any ?'s you can im me at johncaddles in case anyonr thinks im not that good i did get 7th at nec3 with k yama
u could super or s. sp… iono really… i play a lot of K yama so i try to stay on offense… JD sweep works wonders!
have u guys ever tried running in and doing the dp kick move? It has a pretty good reach. I use eat for meaty attacks just outside of sweep range… good to mix up with running poke strings and runing s.slashes… Lots of people will just turtle after you rush 'em and stuff 'em for so long, then just throw one in… and it looks cool when it connects, don’t you think?
…later dudes…

too risky
The only time i ever use the axe kick is when i knock someone down or throw them into the corner… after that… j. SK/FK as they get up… SK Axe Kick (if they block low in wait of another attack they’ll get hit…) if they get hit… whiff a jump in, Bomb Bopper… it’s very funny to hear people say “BASTARD!” after that little chain…
I use the Ax kick but rarely due to a high risk factor…I’d rather keep them blocking low for the grab super or to bait them into jumping,running,or rolling in…But using it randomly and well timed isnt bad…
-B.:cool:s.Fp to axe kick is sometimes useful when the opponent is cornered.
that’s kina the same as wat i said… but it was kind of hard to understand i kno ^_^…
