cause he is, adam is letting all the “sagat is crap” talk get to his head.
Sagat is still good, but certainly not top of the list good. In all honesty, I would switch his A+ rank for Ryu’s A rank any day of the week and I’m now going to argue his ass down to B+ right here right now.
Far too many characters have answers for his fireball game, shit, most characters special moves clearly beat them and we all know what ultra you have to pick to clearly beat his fireballs and score half life damage. His fireballs can’t even compete with the awesomeness that is Guile’s fireball either. Guile can lp boom and block a reactioned ultra, come the funk on! If Sagat stops throwing fireballs, he doesn’t have the necessary tools to play footsies, his crouch fierce is too slow, his crouch forward is too slow, his jab range is pathetic, crouch strong doesn’t get the job done and he is left with st rh, which can be baited and punished. His rushdown game was also crippled, tigerknees have to be perfect, and even then, they are -3 on block. That is more than enough for Dudley and Balrog to get a free combo into knockdown for blocking them. Chun can reaction super if she has it and I’m sure there are plenty more answers for it as well. Again, it is -3 if it is perfectly spaced, otherwise, you end up getting punished by every jab in game. Add all of this up with his ultra damage reduction, his combo damage reduction, his tiger upper damage reduction, and the fact that he now takes damage like an average joe. All this means you have a middle of the road character. Sure, he can still give people plenty of trouble, his fireball game is still solid against the right characters and if played patiently he can certainly win. But if I were to make a list of complaints about Rufus, Ryu, or Guile, the list would be tiny in comparison. Their weaknesses are nowhere near this bad.
Oh how the mighty have fallen.
In better news:

maybe they’ll come out with an old sagat patch and restore the s-tier.
Good luck at Cleveland guys. Plans fell through for people riding with me so… me, Stephone, and Odell are just gonna go to a rave in southside instead on a mission for… The Bitches.
^When and Where?
your gonna miss me and underaged tiger shots at the rave. GL with the poontang.
Vanilla Sagat would make me the happiest man alive
Japan is doing a damned good job at hiding their good sagat video’s all i ever see if mago losing. With the way the scene is going I wouldn’t be surprised if Sagat was just outside the top 10 on the character list. Hopefully there will be a revelation at EVO.

Saturday on Carson St.
Adam you should go to cleveland then come back to the rave and tiger shot bitches all night. Then ask your girl how many you’re allowed to bring back.
Has the Super Sagat induced alcoholism gotten worse? Have you gone Jake status (well his friend) and chucked everclear bottles into crowds of people screaming “TIGER!” yet?
Heads up, Ghaleon is taking copies of SF4 and you get entered into a raffle.
good thing that rave is all ages
Too bad Eliza won’t be there :arazz:
I have eternal champions for the Genesis and gonna be gettin some 6 buttons soon. As well as Wrestlemania the arcade game :bgrin:
Adam hit me up when you know what time you wanna leave on Saturday, and let me know how much money I’ll need for entry and stuff.
Guys anyone who needs a partner for the 2 v 2 SSF4 portion, please let me know.
oh shit jake, we are in the same pools, i’m not playing you anymore until the tournament :razz:
Good luck to everyone who is going to the tournament.
So there’s a fully operational Super SF4 arcade cabinet with arcade sticks located next to PitaPit, anyone wanna play me while i’m on my shift?
Wait really? In that shitty little place downtown? They took CoD out?
anyone getting BB:CS when it comes out,I’d really like to lab with some people
Me. Anyone who wishes to play, let me know, I’m ABSOLUTELY down.
I’ll try my best to get it day one, I need to play you Butters because I need the Jin match-up experience
I would like to be the first to say, congrats Jake on repping the city in the team tourney…and I guess Adam helped. But congrats to both of you on making top 8.
Good job to everyone who went to the tournament and represented Pittsburgh. Jake why so good?
