A-groove. I probably rolled a couple times and got punished b/c I did it at the wrong time, so I stopped. I also ALWAYS forget about roll with Vega. I generally try to forget roll exists. Probably a mistake. Thanks for the help, I’ll try it out this weekend.
Actually JDing and parrying can be hard for that. I think you can roll and like I said before, I’ve seen players jump and throw him. And I agree, vega’s roll isn’t so hot. But it does give him a good RC.
I tried out rolling away for the point blank crossup, works perfectly. If the jump in is too close for s.HK to beat, then roll away. I also switched to N-groove, I’m sick of dropping customs. =D
Im not sure if this is the right place but:
Does someone can post some good strats/pokes, etc… against Vega? --> characters using against Vega: Sagat, Cammy, Blanka, Sakura and Honda (all using C groove against Vega on C groove)
So if someone could post good strats with Sagat, Cammy, Blanka, Sakura and Honda (C groove) I would be thankfull.
Hey how do you RC the rolling claw? Double tap jab+short as you go from back to forward?
I put my whole index finger flat on jab+short (that way I hold them down and don’t get negative edge BS) and then slide my middle finger onto MP or my ring finger onto HP. Now I get RC charge moves very close to 100% doing it that way.
what about jab version? i dont think double tap jab+short works here cuz kicks override punches or something. well, i keep getting flipkicks. is negative edge the way to go? or should i tap jab after the rolling instead? neither has worked very well for me so far btw haha
Use middle finger and thumb for the roll then brush your forefinger on the jab.
is this combo possible
Jumping HP, crouching LPx2, MP, Claw Roll
nope. Basically none of that combos at all.
anyone got vids of good Vega players, including this “Makoto” guy you guys were speaking of on the 1st page
Sure. Gamefaqs combos are the best combos. Do you have anymore?
A newbie mistake to never fall into by the way is to try and trap the other guy in the corner using RC crystal flashes. At midscreen, RC crystal flash is pretty decent as a DP-style move, but whenever I see people use this move when they have the other guy cornered (a lot of less experienced players make this mistake unfortunately), they’re just asking to be killed by a roll behind. Just d.LK, d.LK xx crystal flash as the other guy gets up or be patient and wait for the other guy to swing, roll, or try to jump out first is infinately superior to ever using a RC crystal flash by itself.
Some players RC just for the sake of RCing I suppose? Well, my tip if anybody wants to listen is to don’t do that. It’s hurting your game and good players are going to punish you hard for it.
sorry for aksing a simple question, not that I go to gamefaqs unless I need codes
useless vega combo:
c.lk > c.mp > stab you super.
I also need help, and a LOT!!! :sad:
I just get pwnd by a C-Vega all the time. My friend is just annoying with him, he throw a lot, always jumping at random, and if he is losing, he starts to turtle
check buk’s ‘ask me something’ thread. i thought i saw somethng about fighting vega in that.
nice, there’re really some good advices. but ppl stopped with “Vega” talking.
How come Cammy is good vs Vega? I get pwnd worse with her than with Blanka
Hhauahuhauhauhauhau!
I do not turtle, dumbass!
And I throw you ever Im able to do it.
But you are in the good way. Continue in this serach, young Padawan.
In the end, you all with realize that the best charater to beat Vega is… Ill not tell, hauhauhuahua!
I don’t really think Cammy is all that great against Vega.
Me too.
