Old Vega Matchup Thread

What about the backflip? I understand that in the corner, it’s useless, but I remember reading when the game was pretty new that it was a really good wakeup option.

I really don’t care what is Vega’s position in the tiers, as I’m going to use him anyway. And considering my skill level and my friends skill level, I’m sure it won’t matter that much. This kind of differences are usually only noticeable in very high level play. And I’m accustomed to play with low tier characters, anyway (Remy player here :P).

Is it just me or does Vega lose his mask and claw on a lot less hits in this game than he does in the other games (SFA3 for example)???

Yes. I’ve lost my mask only like 10 times out of 100 in Alpha(under a huge pressure),were in SFIV Vega loses it in almost every round(1/4 HP left = mask loss).

Ps: All the Vega whining gets on my nervs. I’m here with UltraDavid,sorry. :arazz:

Damn man even if Vega were to say have potential in the future. You’d still have to work harder with him than any other character in the game.

Indeed what was Capcom thinking. I always thought that he shoulda got that level 3 he had in Alpha 3 and CvS2.

yeah never heard this much whining with any other bottom tierd character. Go to the Twelve threads in the 3S section, I promise you no whining there.

:wgrin:
:coffee:

Wow. I don’t know what to say. I didn’t know that Vega’s tier possition was a national issue. I personally won’t let it bother me.

Think we should talk to Congress about it and see if Obama wont veto our “move Vega up the tiers” bill?

That actually sounds like a good idea. I better get started with a petition or people may start to riot and no one likes a riot.

people still believe in those on-line petitions so why not? lol

Well, that’s one of the reasons why he sucks ass in humble my opinion.

California Regionals are coming up soon. All the big names (besides Justin) will be there for SF4. Look out for vids, cuz Tatsu and I are definitely going to be in there. I want to show everyone the new Vega magic I’ve been working on. :slight_smile:

I’m rooting for you Bebop. Wear the claw proudly.

looking forward to it…
good luck to the both of yall

we’re all eager for your wonderful vega rep :smiley:

Shred them to pieces, bebop!

Confirmed: Bison’s EX Pyscho Crusher stuffs Vega’s ultra. And he CAN do it on reaction. Scary shit…

good luck with your vega

I hope I get to see it on youtube

I don’t quite know what means, but good luck.

here you go:

if you see an opening and attempt to ultra with vega, bison can react while the screens focused on you. He inputs the command for EX psycho crusher, and instead of you getting your ultra, he gets his psycho crusher, you get hit, and the match continues.

the scary part isn’t so much that he can beat your ultra with ex psycho, it’s that he can do it on reaction, meaning as long as he has meter, he can always beat your ultra because he always has that little window to react.
