I watched the Vega vs Akuma video and I don’t think he was very good at all - he knew how to do a lot of solid plays using focus attacks but his overall game was very weak.
Yeah, he’s not that good, but I think they’re great matches to see what works and what doesn’t. You can learn a lot if you watch how he loses.
I love beating Akuma With Vega! Backflip thru his Ultra!! That Really Irritates them!

Vega vs Vega - I’m the one getting his ass kicked.
The other guy is a tourney winner, expert level, I’m just intermediate.

You can see how not to use an ultra, and you can see some pretty solid poking game from both of us I think. I learned a lot since this game.
df.HK -> c.fierce? hmm.
yes, not bad to do if you cannot pull off a Flip Kick juggle and/or don’t have bar.
Is it df.hk -> c.fierce or c.strong?
Can we see some more videos of bebop beating shotos?
Seconding this - Shotos give me trouble.
Didn’t you… like… Switch characters?
I thought about switching to Honda but after reading up on him he has the same problems Vega, and I thought of two things I wanted to try before I completely gave up.
- Using FA to absorb the jump in and then countering - about a 50% success rate here but I need more practice
- Using dashing to try and dash under jump-ins.
Like some other Vega players I have a huge problem with other players being able to spam jump in and crossup over and over, as well as getting raped in the corner.
stay tru to vega and he’ll be good to u
but yea cross ups do fukk vega up

Both is equally as good! If you forget to charge/are conserving meter/dont have a meter! They can be used as jump-in set ups…Eg. df+hk->cr.Mp/cr.Hp to jump hp/Hk, cr.mk,cr.mp xx Lp Vega Ball to etc etc…or you can always do jump hp/hk, cr.Lk, Kara throw/walk and throw!!
This is when I wish Vega’s EX Wall Dive had armor properties or was invisible to fireballs.
well cr. HP is gonna do more damage but sometimes I do not always hit with it, could be the on-line delay dunno. I always hit w/ cr. MP plus you can cancel cr. MP or Focus Cancel it to keep the pressure on the opponent.
