El Fuerte General Discussion Thread

  1. You can steer most of his air moves, even his ultra, so if you hold forward it will go further (almost half screenish?), if you hold back it will land right infront of where he started.

  2. I’m not really sure what you mean here, do you mean where you stop running and just jump? You just runback, hit LP to stop, and then jump. His jump lokos very similar to the tortilla.

I don’t really understand the second question, so I can’t help you there, but here is the answer for the first question:

Fuerte’s Ultra range can be controlled by the user. If you just do the ultra and do nothing, it will have medium range, if you press and hold “back” right after doing the ultra, you will have the very close range that you were talking about (when you opponent is right next to you). And then you can press and hold “forward” after doing the ultra to do the long range one, it almost goes 3/4 of the screen but doesnt work when your opponent is to the far opposite side. Also note that almost all of Fuerte’s moves have a similarily controllable range like the splash and tortilla and others. There are many uses for the ultra, I think some should be mentioned in here:

Here are a couple of helpful videos made by our great people in here, one is for basic tactics and the other for advanced ones (dont worry too much about the advanced one, even I fail at most of it…:sweat:) hopefully you will find the answer to your second question.

yes you answered the second question right…my bad…im just not a fuerte player lol. it does look like the tortilla.

thanks to akashwan too.

I’m always down for Fuerte matches with SRKers. You can hit me up, though I’m a bit rusty from Halo ODST >_<. Be nice to learn some stuff along the way.

Wikum:
You’re #2 sounds like one of two things:

  1. Backward Habanero Dash, HP (while holding towards you just like with ultra, you can aim it). This will exactly produce the tortilla flip, just in quick whiff form.
  2. Or, most likely, whiffing lk guac kicks(srk motion+lk) over and over for meter.

Anyone found some high qualty Fuerte art? I’ve found a few things (mostly from Udon on Deviantart) but really trying to find some high res artwork that I can use to make a custom stick.

you guys like???

Does anyone think that Trials are necessary in order to improve with Fuerte? They do help with execution of his moves and you do learn some interesting links/combos, but do you think a good player should be able to get through the Trials? Because I’m honestly having a difficult time doing so. I want to get better as a player, but honestly I feel like I’ve hit a glass ceiling that wont let me get better. I win some occasional G2 matches, but that’s really it. Any way to improve my game? Because I need it… My friend said the trials are crucial, but damn they’re difficult. Any good training tips???

Edit: Farthest I’ve gotten in Trials was Medium Trial 4 on the last combo.

Hard trial #5 is pretty much the only one that you’ll use a lot, though some of them are kind of neat.

oh man thats sick!.. i want to get mine hooked up so bad… just dunno where to start :confused:

i dunno if i posted this in the fuerte threads, but here you guys go.

munchi, what kind of stick do you have?

That’s a Madcatz TE. I actually found that guys artwork on deviantart, he’s not bad it’s just not quite what I am looking for.

its a dumb un-modded hori fight stick 3(the smaller one)…crunchy buttons and all…lol its something for now i guess?..like i said i wanna get it hooked up! whats up? =) any ideas?..tips?

I just finished the Fuerte Medium trials =] I’m having trouble with Hard Trial 1 though. How do you do the LIGHT KICK to CROUCH - MEDIUM KICK?! I try and do it as fast as possible but I can’t nail it! =[. ANY TIPS??? It’s a lot harder than it sounds…

Holy ish!!! That’s a bad@$$ design… I have a TE Edition, do you think it’s still possible to do something like that?

Just try ot over and over really, a lot of those links are ridiculous.

Is that really it though? lol Do you just keep doing it in hopes you’ll nail the link down?

considering I dont use that combo in a match. yes.

You can try plinking to help a little bit, I’m not good at explaining things like that though. I really just spent a lot of time, and eventually it just kind of clicks.

It’s funny because when I am using random characters, sometimes I find myself actually knowing those combos just because I had to do them so many times in the Challenges before I actually got them.

head to the tech talk forums on this site. they’ll help you out for sure. just make sure to read the guidelines and search for things you want answered first. it’s most likely already answered :cool:

ty, and yes it is possible. if you just want to change the art, there’s a thread in tech talk. specifically for TE/SE art.

i literally spent my first 3 months here at srk at the tech talk and trading outlet forums. awesome threads.
