If dash works, can you link ex whirlwind shot after it too? That could lead to some very high damage midscreen during footsies. I wish the hard knockdown from crush counter sweep also applied during crush counter combos.
LupeFiasco plays rashid for anyone interested
if the FT10 happens he will give daigo some good matches
rashid is a very mobile character with alot of options to get in, his comeback factor merits his flow
if he had a backwards roll he would be broken, as long as you keep mobile and keep the opponent guessing
he gets two tornados so I tend to revolve my gameplay off of setting it up in addition to v-reveals OS’s
coolkids rashid is very nice but I do not think people know how to deal with it yet (beta, duh)
Can’t special cancel the 2nd hit, so I doubt it. Maybe you can link it if you’re very close, but I’m sceptical.
Hey guys
A couple of my online matches, definitely not the best play a lot of grabs but I’m still learning… Can’t wait for the game to drop fo sure.
Lamerboi’s rashid is insane
I gotta say Im rly impressed, time to put in some srs work into rashid once this game finally launches
So I’m going to a pre-launch SFV-tournament and have been gathering info about Rashid. I came across one combovideo which showed how Rashid’s F+MP could AA (aswell as allow for a juggle followup). I haven’t tested it though…
Does anybody know if it is a reliable AA compared to cr.mp?
What and when are you going to an event, and is it being streamed?
F+mp isn’t a great anti air, but I imagine it can be used against certain jump ins. Tip: look up dantarion’s hitbox website to see
It’s not really an event, but a tournament in a store. I believe it is going to be streamed though. It’s on Friday the 12th.
f.MP is only good to anti air some far empty jump-ins.
Imo Cr. Mp will take you far, EX uppercut for closer jump ins.
St.lk works too, haven’t tested it personally though.
id rather not use the bar for that unless I hit confirm it and even then on block I may ex eagle strike to reset the neutral, how reliable is cr.mp for an anti air? it usually gets stuffed unless I am timing it wrong?
st.LK is good when you react slowly and press the first button you see, lol.
But cr.MP is awesome when cancelled on whirlwind allowing to some shenanigans.
Rashid is pretty interesting so whether Ingrid will be playable or not, I’d definitely use him.
Well guys, I think it’s time to decide the name of this thread.
Hmmmmmm how about…game boy"s and tornados? Or Scouters are cool. Or Tornados and kicks. Rashid the Genie.
You guys with early copy, should check if CH remains on both hits of f+mp and cr. Hp. I think that’s a global change.
When I saw Fang’s sweep I really wanted someone to test that bad. If multi-hit counterhit moves give proper frame advantage that’s a big deal for a bunch of different characters. Not just Rashid - Ryu forward heavy punch and back heavy kick, counterhit special attacks like bison scissor kicks, there’s a lot of cool stuff that becomes possible…
