Dee Jay's midscreen EX MGU Dash Ultra 2!

aight cool

Ok. I just hopped back into DJ and I can totally do this in this game now. I have a super easy way to knock this out. I taught myself in like 15 mins and here were my steps:

  1. Whatever move you use to combo into EX MGU, MAKE SURE to buffer your charge for the ultra before the move starts. Like if you’re comboing c.mp into EX MGU, hit c.mp, up, down/back +PP.

  2. Once you see DJ hit the final punch of EX MGU, THAT’S when you buffer your dash.

  3. Do, dash, db, uf +PPP for the ultra motion. This is way more reliable for me since I usually get ahead of myself trying to dash into a reverse tiger knee or 360. THis way also makes it so I can execute it about the same rate on both sides.

I may try and make a quick tutorial vid if anyone wants me to so you can get a visual.

The more I try the worst I get at it. I’ll keep trying until I get it atleast 4/5 of the time. Then I can use that ultra with fatith on landing it in a match.

when your training it, dont get flustered, that just makes it worse, the dash ultra you gotta do kinda calmly.
Im getting more consistently after I stopped mashing fwd for the dash.

And THIS is why I avoid training mode like the plague. This happens to me in every game I try to use training mode in. I just use online scrubs as my training mode. I learn faster that way lol

You can punish the cannon spike with walk and dash u2. And I punish her U1 with a focus attack.

I noticed that sometimes my EX MGU will not perform the max amount of hits without mashing. This leaves me with not enough time to charge my U2 (not that I can connect it anyway, lol, because I suck). Tips?

The charge time is really easy to get. There have been times where I haven’t gotten all of the non mashed ex mgu hits and still got dash ultra to connect.

you should still have enough time to charge, MGU doesnt have hit-stop. so you dont lose charge time for dropping hits.

me and him both jamaican so ill be playign him foreva lol, stil hopeing they some how switch his uc2 motion to charge. I never like this motion for his UC2, i learned it but only on p2 side, but still id rather have a charge liek how they switch bisons UC2.

I actually find the current motion easier to dash-ultra with than the back-forward back-forward motion.

is this set up harder that guile’s FK, backdash, u2?
I am going to attempt this for the sake of knowing which one is harder to master.
Overall good Guile player here, sad his balls got cut for AE, should I start learning Dee Jay for AE?

It’s far, far harder than any of Guiles dash ultras. However, like they mentioned above the trick is confirming the EX mgu then taking your time (and making sure you don’t mash out anymore hits).

The method that helped me the most in learning it was doing the c.mp to EX MGU then inputting the dash and not going for the ultra, making sure I was getting the dash at the right point, quickly and cleanly. It’s sortof just before his arm is completely raised.

I do not agree that is FAR harder than any of Guiles ultras. I went to training room yesterday and I was able to do both set ups. EX MGU walk u2 , I had done it before since it is the same way of doing guiles u1 with a little bit of a walking. Then I started messing up with EX MGU dash U2, I was able to land it on my 8th attempt, this set up is not extremly hard in my opinion, the key is to know exactly when to buffer the dash out of EX MGU. On another note, I find it way more difficult to get the timing right on Guiles’, and I dont mean dash u1, or dash u2, I mean any combo ending in Flash Kick> FADC> Backdash>Sonic Hurracane.

*In my case, guile’s setup if more difficult for me to do than Dee jays, but *Dee Jays application of these setups is far better than guiles in AE. The damage on guiles set up is ridicuolus low. Almost every guile now prefers u1 over u2.

I must add that Dee jay is kinda fun, I am going to learn him too since it has some good moves and a far better comback possibility that guile. He has ways to combo u2, not like guile, whose u2 damage sucks and it is pointless. The only thing Deee jay does not have is some of guiles great Pokes , AA and priorities. You cant beat guiles s.hp,backfist ,far s.hk nor c.mk pokes. Dee jay lacks zone anti airs but excceeds in cross up or above head with his upkicks, aka Dee jays Flash kick version. I have been getting stuffed my most of the casts due to him having low priority on his moves.

Things that I like about Dee jay so far:
sweep: can be safe on block if done properly and goes under fireballs
c.mk: great way to knock down enemies
angled knee shot: chingos of priority to keep the pressure
ex horizontal kicks: go through fireballs if timed correctly

Things that I have not figured out:
a move that will hit low or horizontally such as get the fuck away(ie guiles FK reversal)
---- the horizontal kicks have a lot of startup and the vertical kicks have a high hit box, most of the time they wiff

I will try to explore more about him, any help will greatly speed up my learning curve. Thanks

i got this on pad pretty consistently. i wouldn’t switch back because its uncomfortable and i need mah linx.

you have plenty of time to think and dash.

just keep at it guys.

Are you playing AE or ssf4? cuz in AE yeah his dash U2 is easier, try and see if you get it in old ssf4.

Also DJ does have good zone AA’s. Try cr. HK, st. MP, st. HP, st. HK, cl st. MP, and air to air HP/HK. He’s got hella normal AA’s, granted their not all gdlk but they all have their uses.

DJ doesn’t have a good gtfo move, just EX sobat, EX upkicks, or EX MGU but I don’t recommend any of them. Maybe sobat every once in a while.

thanks for the info, I did his dash ultra using AE, ill try to do it in super only. thanks for the info

You were right, tried to do it in super and couldnt. From what I can see, seems that in super the dash animation is shorter than in AE. I tried just to do clean fadc fron dash u2 and it was so hard to get it out. On the other hand the backdash seemed so easy.

i have a dash ultra tutorial on my channel for super. it should work in AE because its easier now than ever.

I think you should post this every 5 days lol. If people took the time to watch your videos, they wouldn’t have to ask any questions
