How To Further My Training/Skills?

OK, when I posted here a while back I was a total noob…couldn’t even through a fireball with Ryu with the stick. :shy:

Now I’m starting to get the hang of the stick, and am able to play a little bit. I’ve got like 1600 BP online, which is good for me with my humble beginnings.

I want to step my game up now. I posted awhile back about maybe learning FADC…but I will save that for later. I’m just not there yet.

There’s still tons of beginning/intermediate stuff for me to learn, though, and want advice.

I like Sagat, so I use him. Sometimes I get lucky and my opponent jumps straight at me, so I smack them with a HK. Sometimes they are full-screen away so I just throw Tiger Shots.

It’s the ground-based close situation that I need help with. Any suggestions for this?

That’s a kind of a generic question. You could be losing in this situation for a couple different reasons, whether its throwing out desperate moves, getting hit by counter hit setups, getting thrown a lot, a character specific problem (can’t deal with excessive dive kicks) etc.

I’m sure someone will give you some generic advice without really knowing what your problem is, but simply saying that you have a difficult time in a “ground-based close situation” doesn’t explain much.
