Gouken Videos

Nice to see those FADC combos, and the tatsu cancels. It’s no srk x fadc x ultra, but it’s good to see he has more ultra options than just the back throw.

Also, I wish to god they let him link his light attacks into either mediums or heavy attacks in the next SF4. Just letting him link something from low to high to special would drastically improve his game and bump him up a few slots on the tier list.

Very nice video! I favourited this for future reference along with the combo video by Mirror. Good stuff man!

WTH happens here?

Fast-forward to 9:28 – watch the demon kick -> fireball.

Not my vid, but I noticed that and was like, WTF?! Throws are invincible?

He just throws him out of the recovery of the hadouken, the fireball just went active at the same time the throw did.

Sanford’s gouken despite what the announcers say. Alot of AA ultra/super setups.

More gouken videos from Sanford.

Ken vs Gouken

Abel vs Gouken

Akuma vs Gouken

Bison vs Gouken

That Akuma vs. Gouken video with Sanford was definitely eye-opening. I used to think that you couldn’t do anything after doing a two-hit with Gouken’s j.MP, but apparently you can lead into a Super with it. Interesting…

Yeah Gouken has some tools and combos into Ultra, but they’re not that easy. I didn’t see Sanford use any a few posts above me, except for Ex Palm >> FADC >> Ultra. But he had these options too:

-Ex Palm >> DASH >> Ultra
-Ex Tats >> FADC >> Ultra. This one is just EVIL. :rock:

Sanford’s Gouken kicked ass though!

I’m noticing that any character who gets right in Gouken’s face such as Bison, Abel, or Yipes’s Ken who did that half the time, Sanford had some pretty big trouble and seemed like he was struggling to get out of pressure strings/the corner. But the Akuma who played distance games with Gouken, Sanford did great.

So is sanford officially maining Gouken now? What happened to his cammy?

Man, block/kongo that ex-air tatsu!

Also, if this doesn’t show how gimp backthrow is outside of punish…I don’t know what will - its just a waste offline.

Anyway, it looks like Sanford has the same problems as the rest of us.

I thought Sanford could have benefited from doing more ex tatsu on wakeup/mixup situations, IE vs Abel and Ken.

^ Well it is quite possibly the riskiest move in the game…

Personally, I think you have to be absolutely sure, or stupid, to try EX Hurricane on wake-up.

Nah he’s not. He said online that he’s still maining Akuma and that he’ll never EVER EVER give up Cammy (he was very forceful on that point heh).

At -97 on block its enough time to reflect on your bad choices in life as well as the one you just made right then. I pretty much exclusively do it if I have 3 bar to fadc, at least if it its blocked I’m not royally fucked and if it hits I’ll take a reset.

Oh and don’t forget a meaty low will avoid it completely, yeah basically just dont do it

Hey! Valle was using Gouken at West Coast Warzone! Is Gouken finally becoming popular?

valle is using (or at least trying) pretty much every char, he still goes back to Ryu when it counts

But it’s still cool that he picked him up as an alternate.

Trying to get this fraps thing working, finally figured out how to get sound… lol

Youtube raped the video quality. :sad:

Anyways, I think it’s funny how I honestly used to think Counter-Ultra was impossible. Now though, it’s really really easy. I wouldn’t even say it’s difficult… just a weird motion. Dash Ultra after EX-palm is much harder IMO.

I just wish counter-ultra was more useful. :confused:

Have I been missing something??? where is this backdrop? Is this all super saturated or is this all a dream???
