Kick your sneakers off and relax~ Guy General Discussion Thread

^Sorry to hear that. I’m kind of in your situtation now. I stoped at 6th on PSN and that’s only because my control pad started acting up. I played Wolfkrone in a session not to long ago. The first time I played him I was a little nervous, but I figured he’s only human. I was very close to beating him in the first game but lost in a close match. The second time he had a convincing win and the third time I beat him. I was the only one to beat him in a 24 game win streak when I entered the online room. It was fun and I wished he would of stayed, but he was probably tired or something. It was on the UYGstream, but I left to, just a little to laggy. But it was fun while it lasted. Good luck in the future!

I may have to get off Xbox Live myself. Maybe I’ll be playing this on the PC. Subscription fee is a little much for this game alone and there aren’t any others that interest me online anymore.

Good lord I’m salty >:(
Just had the most infuriatingrun of games on Live… I ran into all my worst matchups (Bison, Guy Mirror, Vega, Blanka) But 4 different Bisons in a row was the killer. I suppose its good matchup experience as they all (seemed ) decent, but man… when you get 4 or 5 matches against what you think are your worst characters… it plays on your head.

[SPOILER= pointless venting. Ignore] I played well but not well enough… barly offtime with anti-airs, missing bushin chain grabs by pixels, mistiming punishs by milliseconds.
You know the games where you dominate a round, then letting the second one slip.
So your a bit shaken going into the 3rd… and its a nailbiting stressfest… yeah it was that… for like 8 games in a row.

I was trying to break top 10 in Europe and it all slipped away. I never cared about points before but when I was so close I was looking forward to it.

I think I’m over it :smiley: Guess thats what I get for playing street fighter at 5am :oops:

Keep it up man! Never give up! XD

In the Bison match up I swear man, Cr Mp, St MP,cr mk, St mk and St HP are your best friends when it comes to poking and CR HK IS COMPLETELY USELESS, Bison apparently can avoid that move completely with Scissor Kicks.

With proper timing and I did this on Yun/Yang and Bison. if you time it a bit earlier than you would do nj mk or lp you can connect nj hp for your safe jumps. This was in training mode and CPU was blocking it/whiffing DPs. Switched it over to recording Guy with the safe jump setup and as I held back Yun would block, and if i crouch blocked Yun would get hit. Just hit training mode. I’m not sure if this works all characters but its worth a shot for anyone interested

So glad they are making Strider look like his fellow ninja!

now why couldn’t they do that for Guy in AE.

If they gave him sneakers that would be so chill.

I’ve been thinking about the changes to guy in the 2012 version, and thought of what new tricks he might have.
Basically th U1 having the forward movement at the start means we should be able to punish/option select backdashes the same way characters like fei long and cammy can, and also it should be an awesome way to stop focus attacks, which is something guy has trouble with now.
And the bushin flip recovery change should mean we can guess when someone will jump or reversaland still be pretty safe if they dont jump, instead of just getting hit by a sweep kick like we would now, and also it could be an easy way out of the corner if you dont want to wall jump

Sorry I haven’t been around too much. Real life has been kicking my ass lately (and will probably continue to do so for awhile). :tdown:

Hey here is the Kuwait Journal leading to SBO featuring Nox2. Never knew what he looked like now i do LOL! Kuwaiti Players Journal - Road To Tougeki

Also the reduced recovery on Bushin means it will be very easy to take charge away from some of Guys bad matchups. Things like whiffing Hp Bushin so Bison cant ex-headbutt away and stuff. I was thinking of loads of situations while playing a Honda last night.

I still wish U1 can hit airborne opponents for full hits… it would get sooo many more uses…would proly be an awesome anti air too… and yea with the new bushin flip we can get setups like

forward throw ->walk back -> HP bushin flip(empty)->cr.LK … should be pretty hard to block if we do it as they wakeup… u can land either front or behind them…

^ I was just thinking the same thing today about Ultra 1 hitting airbourne opponents…

Nice to see NOX2 doing well in Japan according to there blog! Going on win streaks! Beating Daigo’s Yun is nice! Beating Kiryu 4-1 is nice as well. 24 win streak. Go Nox2

I think i found a super bug against Guile.If you do his bushin chain into super(not link) the last hit of the super will not hit

Yeah happens to Balrog sometimes as well just completely drops them during the super! It happens

Not sure if this has been discovered yet, and I haven’t been to the lab to test it, but…

I think Guy might have a safe jump setup after TC xx lp-shoulder, hk-tatsu in the corner. Hold up before you hit the ground, and then nj.mk. I’ll be testing this after class.

Ryan Hart liking NOX2’s Guy!

‘‘I for one am very excited to see how the Kuwait players perform. There were many players from Kuwait, most of them are ok but I was impressed with two of them. Nox the most, 1. Because he reps my character Guy and 2. Because he totally beat everyone, of course he lost as well but nobody went without losing to that guy no matter what the character was, even I didn’t beat him in the 3 games I had with him. I saw winning and losing very close games with Fuudo as well, damn nearly made me want to go back to the lab with Guy, haha. I don’t know how many matches they had in totally but here is one I found just now on you tube. Nox vs. Daigo (Warrior Rank)’’ -Ryan Hart

Guy vs seth help?

Seth is a completely fucking stupid matchup, not only for Guy but pretty much every other character in the game. Deal with the same command throw or dp 50/50 bullshit over and over, and that tanden engine crap is utterly idiotic for it to be safe as shit.
