Man that match with dhalsim was so lame. Dhalsim seems like a very difficult match up to me. The cammy one on the other hand seemed to be alot more manageable but still difficult. I have played really really good cammys before so this matchup I am familiar with. Her dive kicks are focus attackable and it will crumple her if she attacks cause of the lag iirc. Also I have successfully vortexed her canon spikes lol so I know it is possible. I should learn to deal with spiral arrow next when vortexing. Defending against a good cammy is ridiculously hard though.

The one thing I don’t know how to counter is the hooligan throw thing on wakeup. I have no idea how to defend against that. Do you know? Not even holding down will work cause you are standing on your first frame upon wakeup.

If you want to fight a genuine Cammy god, try Cobelcog on XBL. He’s in Sg, so he shouldn’t be hard to find…
I’ve played against him in tournaments and on live and he is perhaps the most agressive player I’ve ever met. Apparently in the Gaming world cup, he was getting notices from the likes of daigo and eita and placed in top 16/32. (the tournament was eventually won by Fuudo who defeated Daigo in a Ryu mirror match, as an example of the standard which we’re talking here…)

Check him out…he’s a pad player to boot!

as far as i know that hooligan to grab you even when you’re crouching is inescapable. I have no idea what to do there.

4 quick tips for the dhalsim match-up.

  1. You can punish his snipe on hit or whiff with ex.fba or ultra, very easy to do.
  2. You can punish a blocked yoga flame with cr.mp xx ex.fba, yes you are actually in range.
  3. Use Focus dash in a lot, especially when he throws out normals. Just be careful of the fire from far and flame from close.
  4. RUSH THE SHIT DOWN! Dhalsim’s goal is usually to be away from you. So don’t be scared to push him in the corner and pressuring him. RCF is a good tool for it.

^ i was doing all of those things in the vid

This is my first video upload… more to come…

itsz escapable , jus anticipate it & SLide right under it…thatsz what i doo ALL da time

Jay, I think what he’s trying to say is when she does it on your wakeup.

yea even on WAKEUp if u she does it u can SLIDE right under it , ive done it ALL the time & i dont get CAUGHT

from what i know,doing a wakeup light scarlet terror is the only way past that stupid glitch.

If you couch, hooligan wouldn’t grab you.

my camera man really suckd and he was using a phone :frowning:
i got my ass raped n my first tourney
i need major help
any advice?

wrong

if she does a trap wherein overheads hit any character before they have the chance to crouch on their wakeup, then you can’t crouch it. same with vega’s jump out fierce against any character but the big ones.

i don’t see how sweep would work either. if she’s grabbing you meaty and sweep has 8 frame start up then there’s no way you’re going to be able to crouch under it… she’s pretty much already grabbing you.

You did maybe once every 4 chances… If you found his dhalsim tuff, I wonder how you’ll do against my friend’s…

Learn another character… One with easy reversals…

You can’t backdash the hooligan because you won’t recover fast enough after she cancels the hooligan combo and lands. You can’t backflip. I would say don’t quickstand or try mashing crouching jab/fierce and hope her timing is off. BTW crouching fierce successfully stuffs it on reaction, not speaking in the wakeup tech situation though that’s iffy.

Hey ya ive uploaded a Video were i was plying sum CASUALs wit 1 of my friendsz on my LIST…we plyed 10 games it was 5-5.

Feel FRee to COMMENT the VIDEO…ty VM =]…more CASUAL vids to come whn my camera stops acting up

I believe hooligan can’t get the throw if the opponent is crouched. Cammy has 3 options when she starts hooligan.

  1. Not pressing anything which will do her slide ( it can be comboed into ultra)
  2. Do a grab. FYI you can’t backdash out of hooligan because you are actually a couple of frames airborne, which gives cammy a not only free but very easy grab. Notice the animation.
  3. Press a button that will reset her mix-up with cannon spike/throw/hit. ( she is vulnerable for a few frames)

My opinion vs this is to crouch and wait for the recovery frames, either it being from the hit or the reset. Then push them back and reset pace.

As Jozhear already said, the strategy consists of grabbing your standing frames. It’s almost like a true Izuna Loop or jump back fierce overhead. The first standing frames are obligatory, you can’t skip them and you can’t press down to duck, your character is still going to stand.
If backdash doesn’t work, I really don’t know what will other than to wait for the opponent to screw up, like Kitty said. Does laxlight’s method work? Anyone confirmed this yet?

Cammy’s setup for the hooligan tech trap is after a knock down with cannon spike or forward throw. If you watch the video Steinmania patterns where he goes for hooligan after every dp, even at 1:20 he feints with fierce and then goes into hooligan. Then he notices that you are consistently getting nailed with it so he just randomly throws the hooligan combo out there. My advice would be if you you see her continue to go for the tech don’t quickstand. It sucks for vega because the only way out of this trap is with a reversal dp/ex-messiah/ex-headbutt which he doesn’t have.
