If you can’t pull the links off consistently then either practice or this^
HOWEVER. Since that was a tourney, I can’t really blame you. I don’t think you would attempt those links if they weren’t working for you, it was probably really because you were nervous, wasn’t it?
Also, set the CPU on random block and practise hitconfirming. Don’t waste meter!
You don’t want to do it after you land a jump in attack.
Here is a copy and paste from Sabin’s thread where he posts some footage of a random Japanese Claw player. Thought this may be interesting if you hadn’t caught them on the original Sabin thread:
"Well since I’ve been in Osaka I’ve been taking a lot of non-sim related matches…because I didn’t have a tripod at the time I started recording. But this is a good thing.

The next upload is going to feature Chari (Blanka) and Uryo (Viper) along with Naiki, myself, and Oriku…all grandmaster level players. None the less, these are some of osaka’s better players in these vids so enjoy for now, sorry I 've been sick so this should make up for it."
Mh, really, there is not much of a difference between landing j.hp cr.mk Izuna and j.hp cr.mk cr.lp Izuna.
Don’t know about you, but I like to stick to one type of jumping attack pattern, then mix up as they block. The problem with j.hp cr.mk is that even if you see it’s blocked you can’t do much of a mixup afterwards as opposed to cr.lp cr.lk which can be followed by a kara throw (or maybe I missed something here? Can you kara throw after j.hp cr.mk?). Although it does a bit more damage indeed on hit. It’s not always about that though.
you can kara throw after c. mk. take one step forward after your c. mk and kara throw immediately and it connects
Why would you add the cr.lk instead of another cr.lp? With some characters having the low hit is important, but with vega, losing his +1 frame advantage makes it decidedly disadvantageous, at least when I use him.
Oh, that was just an example. Of course it’s smarter to do cr.lp because it gives you 1 frame of advantage.
c. lk always combos into scarlet terror on every character whereas another c. lp pushes them out
and connecting with a scarlet terror means all of your mix ups and offense is made ready
What box do I push to play the video…I don’t want to push the wrong one and download some mega-mental, Tokyo-flu-type virus and destroy my two grand Sony! Cheers Sasaki…
Ps: every icon I access seems to take me to a login page…
Always good to know what they can use against you.
man i hope people haven’t caught on to this… = (
Heh, I knew about this one.
Actually saved me a LOT vs a good Fuerte user because he kept running over my body when I rolled, so his mixup wasn’t as spot on. 
(So yes, Fuerte can command-run over your roll too lol)

That damn crossup Ultra…
How do you block it correctly?
You have to pay attention to how far Blanka moves forward before he does his ultra. On certain characters, he has to move forward more than with other characters. Still though, it’s pretty ambiguous at times (it’s hard to tell how far forward he moves. Sometimes when he moves forward, he still wont cross you up). And if Vega has about 20-25% life and blanka knocks him down, and he has ultra, Vega is dead no matter what.

Me vs. my friend’s Sakura who I think is pretty decent.
Beating me is not an achievement 
I just wanted to say, you are my hero. I’ve learned a lot from watching you, good and bad. Keep it up. :china:
Also, Bebop, keep screaming at people. I’ll keep laughing. :tup:
