"Lay Hands on'em!" Gen Video Thread

my only tip I can give you is, if you watch round 3, you see you got into his head and he’s playing a very botchy ryu, let him do the un-safe offense and counter jump with Crane c.HK and unsafe move with Crane c.MP. The longer you do it the more it drives em mad :slight_smile:

once they figure out your turtle game just switch back to safe offense they won’t expect it

A match from last week. Made some mistakes but came out on top.

I’m uploading some more. They have a bunch of mistakes in them as I’ve been playing Medal of Honor like mad.

second game
a gen going by rokotsu vs a Sagat
really impressive stuff

He’s a pretty well known Gen player in Japan, believe he is the 2nd highest ranked gen behind amiyu99 afaik. He’s come a long way since I first started following him in vanilla ^^

Vids like that make me want to pick him up again, I love the way he combines mantis and crane style so seemlessly doing rolls from traditional mantis combos etc.

Rokotsu(he’s trying to keep it a secret though lol) released a new vid of some Gen techniques.
Some very nice Oga cross up set ups, meaty PPP s.MP to c.HK and more.

hehe yea i love playing the old man, im thinking of having honda be my turtle character and gen my footsies character.

that video how some really cool things, but most of it cost meter and just reset the fight. i do like the oga crossup tho, makes more use for the move.

wow those crossups are pretty awesome, especially the last ones which will be the most practical. I need to pick Gen back up I swear…

Thanks for the vid.

EDIT: I just realized this makes Oga so much stronger against characters that don’t have a DP because it is a 50/50 guessing game.

[media=youtube]gT9d6wSjsEY[/media] (Guy) Probably one of the best Guy players I’ve played against. And one of the best back n forth matches I’ve been a part of. I almost beat him with my Rose as well. Was neck n neck again I believe. I didn’t realize Guy’s Flying Flip Throw grabs grounded players.

Sorry about the audio I didn’t realize the left jack was unplugged.

I’ll be blunt, I know I am going to be called a newb due to the low quality of these fights but shrug may as well post em.

Okay before you post telling me how abysmal I was let me tell you what I know I need to fix (essentially everything).

  • I need to stop pressing LK if the crossup MK is blocked,
    -I need to use Geikiro in combos instead of hands, as it does more damage/stun,
    -I need to stop dropping my j.RHx2->s.LP(c.LP)->Roll combos,
    -I need to use (mantis)s.MP links (I can do them offline, but any time I try them online I always seem to whiff and lose a damage opportunity),
    -I need to stop wasting the opportunity of a untechable knockdown/damage when I land j>MK->c.LK crossups, even if I can sometimes chain them together a good player will catch on quick.
    -I need to stop going for off the ceiling Oga as much, it helps but unlike off the wall Ogas it is very unsafe on block while a low crossup one is pretty safe.
    -I need to start using (crane)c.HK as my anti-air more often. EX Geikiro is good an all but the meter would be better spent on super.
    -I need to use EX Geikiro less on wakeup… Unless I see a meaty attack I am just gunna get blocked and punished.

So as I said, pretty much need to fix everything but hey gotta start somewhere.

just a tip, you said that you need to stop pressing LK after MK is blocked. Switch to Mantis and press s.MP adds more pressure.

swoon That was awesome. Gonna have to incorporate some of that into my game.

So, i’m looking at your Gen v Ryu videos.
You’re totally not even playing the footsies game, man.
I think you have a bad habit of jumping in, but when you do, you definitely predict well.
I’m surprised those Ryus never mashed DP, but then again, their spacing was way off.
And random tatsus in the air?? I guess he was really baiting that super out lol…
You could have punished those by dashing closer to him and maybe sweep.

Now i’m watching your Abel video, you’re still not playing the footsies game…
You DO have a good cross-up game, I respect that.
Good job in your matches. A lot of backdashing.

HEY! Look at your first bison match-up, and go to 0:30 in the first round.
Did that Oga cross-up???
THAT is a good finding! IF it’s true, that is. lol

Hey Messiah, I’m digging the way your Gen is evolving =]

thanks bud. Remember I still have crazy bad habits, I’m still trying to stop myself from doing things I used to do, that used to work. I’ve been playing a much more patient game with Ryu’s and really only jumping in if they Fireball, and if the spacing permits me. The one thing I used to do a lot but can’t seem to get down online anymore is Focus Attacking through Fireballs, I find the timing is different than before, and sometimes I eat a few. It’s really annoying. Vanilla I could do it all day.

BTW yes that does cross up, but I didn’t find it. I just knew about it.

Sorry if this is already posted, is there a specific way to easily transfer saved video’s from the 360 to the computer without using a camera (in my case cant transfer anything over 30 seconds)

what do you mean? do you want to RECORD game footage or do you allready have something on your HDD and want to transfer it?

mhhh that one is very specific isn’t it? you really need the exact spacing in the level and the range between the two of you. or?
i mean, it’s not a repeatable “setup”?
