Sweet. The front page of your website looked like one of those automatically generated pages that get posted when domains expire. When that happens it’s always expensive to buy it back from whatever company picked it up.
So when a relevant question pops up, are we allowed to mention your website again? For a while it was top secret or something …
Buk according to the book the standard grab range is 52 pixels is that wrong aswell?
POscrub rocks shine knuckle can punish it…
im pretty sure it’s measured as the distance between the edge of both characters’ collision boxes, e.g. push each other, move 52 pixels back and throw them. if the throw ranges were measured from the characters’ centers, then you’d have raiden’s throw range actually not be all that special (when it definitely is gigantic) and chang’s throw range be puny
interesting, i’ll test it later. you get an e-thumbs up
if you’re talking about max range hibiki slash, it cant. only balrog gigaton blow
Which background stage supposedly “slows down” while Bison is performing his corner CC?
This will probably never be confirmed, but it’s supposedly the windmill stage. the point of the question was to bring up the point that some people think (and still think) that there are stage differences. me? i don’t use bison so i couldn’t care less
When Ino won Evo 2k4 against Daigo, what was printed on the front of his shirt?
in all caps, “JESUS DIED FOR YOU” (and your inability to roll cancel)
Which character(s) can combo off of their manual overheads? (this excludes usage of CCs, Rolento knives, etc. …and my crazy definition of manual overhead is an overhead that you can’t airblock) Please list every example you can think of.
a lot of people seemed to have missed my criteria of overheads having to be un-airblockable, sigh
kim’s stance overhead leaves him at +5, which makes it pretty easy to link low short, stand short xx rushy super after it. this is pretty common actually
kim’s normal overhead (f+rh) can be comboed after in a few different ways, though these are all a lot less practical:
-overhead, go into stance, kara cancel jab into rushy super (really hard)
-overhead, go into stance, kara cancel jab into launcher super (stupid impossible hard)
-overhead hits counterhit, link stance jab and cancel into whatever you want
also, hibiki dp+k (which most people got), and kyo’s 2nd overhead rekka into ground pound
maj gets an e-hug for successfully finding a loophole and mentioning that ken can juggle off of his funky kick overheads
a small number of characters can theoretically do a meatiest-possible overhead, then performing a one-frame link into standing jab xx whatever, but i’m glad nobody except maj brought up that possibility (and therefore made me have to test it)
Which character(s) Alpha Counters leave them at +10 frame advantage on block?
rolento, yuri. everybody forgets yuri :<
Not counting OTGs, Rolento knives, tech throw glitches or any other craziness, which character can do the most guaranteed damage off of a throw? (please also list the combo and the amount of damage)
c-iori vs rolento: command grab, walk up a little, close jab, close fierce xx level 2 rushy super, cancel on the first hit into level 1 pillar super, j.fierce, close fierce xx fierce DP (dizzy). j.fierce, close jab, close fierce xx fierce rekkas = somewhere over 10000 damage
a-todo: command grab, CC, [s.HP, c.HP, c.HP, s.HP… until 10 hits], [s.HP xx jab wave, c.HP xx jab wave] x N, jab wave xx level 1 wave super = 10000+ damage
k-todo: command grab, walk up, close strong, low fierce xx level 3 wave super = 10000 damage
…but seriously HOW COOL IS THAT THOUGH who else can say they eliminated both of those niggas from the same tourney right RIGHT??
Which character(s) do the 2p Cross Up Glitch NOT work on normally?
a lot more people remembered this than i thought would, the answer is hibiki
Other than being susceptible to OTG grabs, what is the A-Groove-related glitch that only works with Dan?
i was surprised how many people remembered this too. you can throw dan out of the invincible part of his CC activation unless he umm, jump installs it like GG
How does one perform the ‘glitched’ Bison headstomp?
this was an easy question, but i just want to bring up the glitched headstomp again so that maybe more people will begin using it. a number of people had sort of an idea how to do it, but answered it wrong still
the correct way to do it is to do a headstomp, pick a direction to fly off and hold it, then after bison steps on the dude and pops up to the apex of his bounce, let the stick go to neutral
chun li, cammy, guile. cammy and guile can’t be juggled as low as chun, but there’s still a lot of stuff you can do to them that can’t be done normally
That iori combo was the one I was talking about testing… But I’m lame and never got around too it.
what’s so good about the bison glitched headstomp?
its way way way harder to punish. cause he goes flying so far away… not impossible but much harder.
Dang, the first two are hella sexy. Somebody needs to put those in a video, ASAP!
Yeah those links are HARD. If any meaty overhead combos do exist, i don’t even want credit for mentioning them. I dunno why they made CvS2 overheads so laggy. I guess the CvS2 overhead policy is “make them impossible to combo off of, but give them hellllluva range.” Almost all of them are negative on the frame advantage. And the closer you get to decent numbers, the smaller the active frame range gets, which means less room for decent meaty.
Kim’s alternate stance overhead is really good though. You definately don’t need meaty for that. I got kinda mixed up on that one, even though i’ve made combo clips using that as non-meaty.
Kyo ground pound combo was obvious. Dunno why more people didn’t mention that. Maybe TOO obvious?
Actually C-Hibiki has a way of juggling off her overhead too, but i don’t think it qualifies as a valid answer to the question because the setups are too limited. You need corner plus opponent in the air plus exact spacing plus one-frame timing. But it looks cool.
aaaaaand Beni
lol wtf Rock has a 2 frame close forward… haha the cvs2 bible is pretty cool, if only someone could translate the stuff they have at the bottom of the pages
and how about Chun Li? corner: d/f+hk xx Kikoshou
First is that even an overhead? I don’t remember but I don’t think it is… And also it can be airblocked if you read the question he says not airblockable!!!
well, it’s an overhead. Judging by her movement, I guess it’s airblockable, sorry then
it also lets him get out of the corner much more safely than a random psycho crusher, and functions as a relatively safe attack which builds a large chunk of meter for bison. also, headstomp becoming really good in turn makes its companion move, the devil’s reverse, much better
i’m fairly sure i’ve seen kim overhead kara cancel into launcher super in a video before. i think it was in requiem?
this is not an overhead, and it’s also air-blockable
has any1 gotten it completely correct yet?
Just FYI, dash back rapes Headstomp attempts. Bison will just stomp the air infront, then land, and you can combo his kneepads off.

haohmaru doesnt hjave a 2 frame jab… the only chars with c.jab thats 2 frames is bison, chun li, and beni. thats it.
Edit: wait! nvm, you’re right hoahmaru does have a 2 frame jab. my mistake.
i think ryu has a two frame low jab, keith on the other hand has a 20 frame low jab
ryu doesnt have a 2 frame jab. its 3.
