Just Rolling With It: Yang General Discussion Thread

not trolling?

thats pretty cool I wish you had some video of it.

I was trying to find out the use of st.mp and it does pretty good at setting up a frame trap or pushing you just out of throw range but Zangief is a different story. his lp spd was just too much.

Been playing AE at the arcade a few times a week for the last 4-5 weeks but just tried Yang for the first time today. I’m a Rufus player and I think I’m coming over to the dark side. It’s hard not to when their movesets are so damned similar yet Yang is so much better. Only thing I’ll miss is the instant dive kick.

Close strong is a good normal for tick throws, particularly command throws. It is +4 on block, +6 on hit. If you did an EX command grab off of that, you’d have a 3f gap if you were blocked, or a 1f gap if you hit. For regular command grab, you’ve a 4f gap on hit.

Call me immature but I literally ROFL’d :rofl:

Looks pretty go… its a nice costume lol

^____________^

So (off topic I know) Ono’s teasing those last 2 character slots on his twitter today. Thoughts?

Translated the AE notes on the wiki. Lemme know if something looks fishy.

I had a dream I could do Launch kick > EX Slashes 4 times. > Up Kick.

what does this mean

You can do Launch Ex mantis X1 probably dragon in the corner, maybe U2. I’ll try it today.

It means you–like all of us–play this game too much to be healthy! LOL
I’ve had such epiphanies in my slumber. I dream of my Chun Li being god like untouchable too, lol!
Thats not happening anytime soon.

so is it possible to use a similar set up to makoto wither her command throw with yangs command throw?

Makoto has a lot of karakasu set-ups. Are you referring to a meaty karakasu? A block string ended with a kara kara? I’m not sure which you’re referring to.

yes that is what i am referring to.

Im gonna use Yang for sure in AE and backup is Fei. I played a bit of Yang in 3rd strike and i love his character design. I was reading his pro’s and con’s on event hubs and from what i see i believe i can manage with him. Haven’t played AE in any arcades because i dont know none in New York so im gonna be at a disadvantage…oh well.

next level in brooklyn, It’s open Friday and Saturday. sunday there’s a tournament for ae, mvc3 & MK

Which one? The kara-command throw after a block string or the meaty command throw?

As far as a command throw after a blockstring, there’s a topic for that which I made. Just end your blockstring in that normal and throw.

For the meaty, just time it. Hard to figure out perfectly-meaty set-ups without practice mode.

looking forward too yang, does his command grab have as much priority as abels

KOK is one of my favorite players ever, and I’m not a fan of many players at all (less than 5?).

Didn’t know he was a Master Yang.

No dick jokes.

EX is throw immune from what I understand. So, it could beat out Abel’s TT.
