This match makes me happy cuz i always have a hard time fighting against high level fuerte players.

Why do i still focus jump-ins?! such a bad habit…
What a terrible Ryu player. This is not what I mean when I say I have a tough time with Ryu. That guy was lacking fundamentals all day long. All he does is hitconfirms and combos.
Where are your air throws? It would have stopped that jump in bullshit in the first round
- Neutral-jump round-house would have killed his shit early.
- Gave up too much space sometimes; there’s no reason to move that far away against Ryu (looked like you were going for wall jumps, though).
- More finishes to those jump-in combos; too many ended with jab resets when they could have been stretched to another jab -> jab RCF/EX FBA or just straight into EX FBA.
Nice EX FBA cross-up in the middle of that block string, though. Beautiful stuff. The corpse-hop mix-up was pretty nice, too.
Obviously crouch HP or ST would have killed his hurricane kick’s arse…
Reasons why you would have really died against a good Ryu:
- your RCF blockstrings are unsafe.
- you need to block meaties!
- you walljump too much.
- you have no hitconfirm.
Work on those. Of course it was a tournament match, and you were probably trembling like crazy… I guess the best advice here is to go to as many tourneys as possible and become a calm player!
Reason why the Ryu was bad:
- No reaction to jumpins.
- No fireball game. Seriously, is this guy playing the right character? My god. No fundamentals here.
- All hitconfirms and combos.
My combo video is almost done. i have 15 vega combos. I want to do 3 more but I can never get the cosmic heel, ST, to combo into super. Whos the best character to try that on, can anyone tell me?
also the other 2 combos i havent’ done yet are like HUGE Rcf combos with like every 1 frame link possible… lol i got it one time but the RCF didn’t combo =(
Try that ST into super on Balrog. His aerial hit-box seems to be pretty large (stuff like CH into short ST work pretty well on him).
Just for the kicks, why don’t you do FADC -> lp RCF -> EX ST
Or maybe you already got this one, but: J.hp cr.mk st.lk st.lk cr.hp
i think someone needs to explain the science of wakeup izuna dropping which is probably the cornerstone of vega’s game against the shotos.
surprisingly i find that none of the claws players seem to attempt that loop in the west.
i’ll probably try to do this one after i get my tourney done.
I got those ones Sas =)
the j. hp, c. mk st. lk etc is actually fancier in my video. Instead of a j. hp, I do the counter hit LP RCF, focus crumple, etc. 5 1 frame links yo!
And thanks for the tip View. I’ll try that on Rog. I have a combo that I don’t think you guys know about, but as far as I know it only works on the big guys. Probably balrog.
Once I get these 3 combos I’ll post it up. If only they weren’t so damn hard… but that’s the point. =P
c’mon…c’mon!

Thanks everyone for the feedback!
@ sasaki : I only walljumped alot because I noticed he had a hard time reacting to it. I also have a bad habit of doing ST as a reversal on wakeup, that is why i mostly get hit by the meaty. And last, I don’t try to finish my combos when i’m vs ryu or sagat or cammy. I sometimes miss my 1 link frames and end up eating a reversal dp. That is why i usually try to bait a dp or tick with it. Now I’m actually implementing jump-in, cr.lp, st.hk into my game because that, for me, is safe. I also don’t know what you mean by my rcf blockstring is unsafe… the cr.mp xx rcf and repeat?
About the Ryu player, he is actually one of the best Ryu’s in Montreal… Well, maybe was… But he hadn’t played for months and apparently, something was wrong with his stick. Anyhow, if you don’t believe me, you can watch some of his vids on http://www.youtube.com/user/timekillr GN: Karamba. I mean, in our fight, I must admit he was rusty and I was not expecting that.
P.S. I still have a hard time to put in my head that for vega to anti-air, he has to be in the air…
IMO, I don’t think a combo video is what we need, instead, why not make some video about his gameplay?
I will love to see that. I suck at the wakeup izuna drop loop~.
hey no prob i’ll start working on it as soon as possible.
btw nekorinsg,i tried adding you but you are yet to accept my pending friend request.
But combo vids are so much fun. :sad:
@Van: Don’t worry man, I believe you. I also agree with the idea of making a gameplay video.
Still, I’m hype for Joz’ combos. Hahaha.
Hmm now I seldom play SFIV using PS3. I log in to PC version most of the time. Nub question~ Can PC and Xbox360 crosslink?
