Kiryu Tsukimiya is officialy the best Guy player in the world

Am I the only one who likes Papatiwawa’s Guy?

Kiryu is awesome I just wish he would’nt use the alt costume :xeye: lol

so after watching RB vs. R i’m convinced that RB’s guy is really really good, dude had some really nutty mix ups.

That was actually the main costume/color I’ve used for Guy since I bought the pack, which was long before I’d heard of good ol’ Kiryu. I swear, sometimes it feels like I’m the only one that likes that costume. :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m back to color 1, still rocks the most and matches my orange buttons / balltop :smiley:
Tried some other colors for a few games, but I lost most of the time, so it must have been the colors.

Don’t worry philosophy I dig that costume also.

:3!!

It does. but it has to be spaced right. Fei Longs light and medium wing is punishable when they do it close to you. If they do it from far all blocked, fei lands too far to be grabbed.

I also use U2 on cammy, but I’m still not used to executing it very well at high speed (end up doing hozanto *sigh)

Yeah i keep doing Hozanto to… i feel your pain… but I normally never use my ultra even when i have U2 anyhow. But then again I never really focus on FADC Ultra or anything.

right now other than obvious punish in a couple match-ups I don’t use u2…

One thing I like is the utility of pushing them to the corner and pulling it out… they know they can just jump up or up/back and they do every time. You recover quick tho… and can punish their jump. I end up doing this more in matches where I pick it… then getting to punish with it.

I haven’t thought of using it that way, but can’t some of the characters do ex reversals after you execute u2?

All characters can do a reversal after Ultra 2 if they haven’t committed to a move except Akuma.

umm he can EX DP…

lol I meant he is the only one character who after committing to a normal move such as cr. jab or cr. short that can cancel into Raging Demon.

What about guy with his overhead?

Akuma doesnt cancel into Demon with st.lp or st.lk. he can only do whiffed moves into demon. whiffed st.hk > demon, or whiff overhead > demon. He can also option select it from his DF Palm (which i hate btw -_-). i hope im understanding you correctly, i dont mean to be confrontational, just trying to clarify.

That is what I’m applying. Akuma is the only character who can Kara Cancel all of his normal moves into Raging Demon. Meaning if he commits to a move like cr. roundhouse and you activate Ultra 2 before Akuma’s cr.roundhouse connects you should be able to grab him and do damage. Unless he has either Ultra 1 or Super available then he can counter Ultra or Super. Basically, it’s a “get out of jail card” with Akuma.

I’m just watching Canada Cup now, and heard the commentator say u can’t SPD fei’s HK chicken wing. Just tested it out in training, I couldn’t SPD the HK and EX chicken wing. This must apply to Guy’s U2 as well.

You can cancel a blocked double HK (toward+HK) at various points of the animation, but you can’t cancel it on hit. I’ve done it on many occasions and it’s quite handy if you catch the range right, because it seems to be inescapable if they’re in blockstun before the animation. I’ve not run it through training mode though with all reversals, I’m not that fussed but I thought I’d mention you can cancel before the 2nd kick hits, or the first, or even after both for example.

So, it’s not just whiffed moves you can cancel, thought I should mention (even though I’m sure you’re well aware!).

Has anyone ever seen Kiryu actually Land U1 fully ?, I know he uses U2 90% of the time but sometimes I wonder why he bothers with U1, Ive never seen him land it fully.

I saw him land it in one match fully.
