Here’s a match with an Ibuki friend of mine and myself that i enjoyed
ive been fucking around with Thunderbolt and ive found a blockstring that ends with thunderbolt crossup, it seems solid and has worked everytime against every char ive tried.
Cr.jabx2 , Cr.Strong, Forward Thunderbolt, you can actually see it in this vid in the second round, just thought i would share, Sorry if this has been discussed XD
I’ve gone on record to hate on Dudley’s Thundebolt, but it’s true that in that particular setup, it’s actually kinda OK, as it can generate a knockdown. You shouldn’t rely on it, but every now and again it has its uses.
LOL, if you thought i meant this as something reliable , then you sir are a funny man.
just something to pull out of the bag every now and then since i havent seen anyone else doing this setup, it’ll keep your enemy on their toes, and it it can be FADC’d to be safe, unless they can spot it and reversal something, but not all chars have anything to reverse it
Kokujin playing against Daigo at 5:00 mark. Don’t get your hopes up high for this particular match, but it bodes well for the future if the best Dudley in Japan is playing this game ;).
The other, more pessimistic, way is of course to take note how “the best Dudley in Japan” got bodied by Low Forward the same way every other Dudley is getting fucked up by it right now.
Listening to Kokujin’s comments as he plays it’s pretty obvious he hasn’t had much SFIV experience at all; he’s kinda running on general fighting game chops and his 3S Dudley reflexes. It’s more a gag match than anything (with Umehara even playing white gi Ken like he did in 3S), though of course things could change if he gets serious about playing. Don’t take it as an actual measure of him or the character.
