Guy Thread

In regards to his Elbow not having an air to air hitbox does that mean the moment the opponent jumps they won’t get hit… or will they only get hit from being directly below him.

Yes anytime the opponent is in the air the elbow won’t hit…which is really really dumb

Capcom I demand a fix… that basically destroys the bushin flip mix up because the moment Guy pauses and does elbow they can jump back.

This includes any normals that are considered airborne as well :frowning:

Ive been practicing Guys midscreen combos and doing something such as: J.HK>CS.HK>TC>LK Tatsu>HK Tatsu>switch is super good for Guy as it does 387 and then your partner can follow up and get even more damage from it, so you can easily get over 450 with one meter and it can also be used as a corner carry.

Kinda hate the fact that Guy’s Elbow Drop inputs Down+Back, Down+Forward were removed.

I am really mad that Capcom took away Guy’s Elbow air to air hitbox like come on now that was totally unnecessary and I have lost a few matches because of that. It was a really dumb move and it makes me very mad that they did that it’s not like it’s OP or something it’s always been apart of his gameplay now I feel like I’m forced to stay on the ground unless I’m doing a Busing Flip but even then that get’s out beat. Man I’m so angry about that :(.

Does elbow drop at least have good priority? I already play a strict ground game in AE so SFxT won’t be much different… but. not being able to use elbow even from bushin flip will be annoying.

So far, it has decent priority from the Bushin Flip for rush-down/pressure purposes, but it feels unsafe at times to utilize it alone (jump-in Elbow Drop).

Sticking to jumping in only on wake up… question though… do his air normals have good priority… or do they get AA’d easily.

Capcom better patch this.

Still rushing a game that has been out for months.

Sad to say, but his air normals seems gets out-beat by some of the “well-rounded” characters, especially against “jump-a lot with air attack” players. But don’t take my word for it just yet, this is a four day experience for me. But in the mean time, just gotta play it safe until new set-ups are discovered.

Not really his air normal’s get out beat by alot of the high tier character’s air nornals and even by some low tier character’s air normals.

Well I meant via ground, like is it just not worth it cause he’ll get beat or trade.

Oh sorry about that yeah his air normals get anti aired pretty easily against a bunch of characters

Alpha 3 mode it is then!

Here is one rank match with me on my second account since my first one expired but I will renew it tomorrow and upload better matches with more high rank players.

They get AA’d just like in 2012

Would you guys be interested in watching me play rank? I’m thinking about recording myself playing rank matches with Guy/Lili with no commentary

I would like to see other player’s take on Guy in this game. So I’m down for observational reasons.
