Reversals in SSF2 versus SSF2T

I’ve been playing quite a bit of SNES SSF2 online lately, but I’ve been frustrated by not being able to do reversals upon landing on my feet. For example, after being hit by an air-to-air normal move. I can reverse tick throws and do wakeup reversals just fine, but I couldn’t do “reset” reversals at all. This caused me to eat a lot of big meaty combos that I could see coming and wanted to DP.

After experimenting with the arcade versions as all as SNES SSF2, I found out the following:

  • In SSF2, whether arcade or SNES, you can’t reversal after landing on your feet.
  • In ST, you can reversal after landing on your feet, even if you’re an O-character.

Now I know that blocking or throwing are my only options in this situation on SNES. This is probably old news to everyone but me.

hmm, thats new to me. But i wouldn’t really dwell on it too much, it is ssf2 afterall now get back to playing ST!

You are correct. No landing reversals in SSF2.

God bless ST.

Also, why are you playing SNES SSF2 when you can get Arcade SSF2 no problem?

Reduced input lag on zbattle, since it’s just straight peer to peer.
I prefer ST myself though, so I’m not really into it.

BAHH. That’s why I kept getting floored. I though it’s cause I suck at reversals.
