Hey everyone, I just began using Zangief in the K-Groove and I was wondering what’s some basic things I need to know in order to be effective with him.
- Do 360s anytime anywhere
- Do 360 if someone jumps and kicks you too high and you recover before he lands.
- Use the Light, Medium and Heavy SPD wisely. If you’re running in to do an SPD, do the light one for safety. If you’re doing it to punish, do 360 Kick instead, it does the most damage.
- JD and SPD if you can, but remember to JD and SPD with HP if you JD an air attack.
- Learn to do sudden run in and SPD.
- Always remember you have Aerial Russian Slam.
- PPP is really good Anti-Air, please learn to use it when People jump in .
- And perfect your Wake Up SPDs.
- Standing Heavy Punch is your friend. Use it to Poke opponents. but watch out for Top Tiers with Good pokes. Gief loses a lot to their pokes.
- Down Forward heavy Kick is a very far reaching sweep. learn to use it too.
- C.MP is another Anti Air of his for popponents that jump in a bit out of reach of your PPP.
