I’m eager to see this. Sagat may have not got nerfed that bad after all
There were lots of dumb things about Sagat in SF4 - hopefully these changes will weed off the dumb Sagat players and keep the good/great ones.
I don’t mind if Sagat is still boss in SF4 but requires much more skill and smart play than what he was in SF4.
also TU does 160 as antiair not 100!!
200 on counter antiair
with AS , it does 180 antiair
225 counter antiair
Say what?
AA TU does more damage than TU on a grounded opp?
They’re doing the same thing with Cammy - her DP kick does more damage on air than it does on ground. I think they’re basically making it stay more true to its purpose as anti air reversals rather than combo specials.
This is great and all, but doesn’t that mean there is less and less reason to use AS? At first I was thinking well if TU got hella nerfed w/e AS to save the day, not its like TU is only mediocre in certain situations namely on the ground. But since ex TU is unchanged and AA TU still does good damage, the only reason for AS is for sexy combos and you wanna finish a match fast off a hit confirm or a jump in.
What if you catch your opp air born after a AA level 2 FA or dashing back? Is the damage the same as the AA TU or grounded TU?
If deep TU means less damage all the srks just became a lot better IMO.
To be honest Emblem lord I think your thoughts on AS are completely wrong. We both wont know until we get our hands on the game ( I will this saturday at a Event in the UK) But I think AS will be FUNDEMENTAL to Sagats game in SSf4 .
I’m just going by what we know. But w/e we shall see.
I agree with Emblem on the AA portion of using angry scar. Why do it when the game purposely buffs the damage of your uppercut for AA purposes? Might as well save the meter. Unless the angry scar uppercut is going to kill them then meh. If I want to hit them with a grounded tiger uppercut then yeah I could see the need to power up from a measly 100 damage.
AS is going to be GDLK though that’s no doubt. Bout time they put some fun into this game.
How about that vid sensei?
Don’t try to rush a good thing man.
Exactly, look what happened to the Matrix.
Also I wholeheartedly agree with AS being fundamental to Sagat’s now playstyle. It will be a new reason to hate Sagat lol.

sagat combos
Wow that really is awesome. I’m starting to believe that stuff about his SSFIV incarnation being superior instead of nerfed.
cool stuff. whats the command for angry scar?
Lol, stand roundhouse combos into ultra for 1 meter. Is that a 1 framer?
Edit:Wait, that was a counter hit so I guess it’s not THAT dumb. Still, you would have all day to hit confirm it if you cancel it into Angry Scar.
Wow. Wow. I dare say that looks both retarded and insanely cool at the same time.
I’ll give it to Super Sagat though, the combos he has to do now to get dat damage is much more complex and timing-based than SF4’s retard Sagat.
Thanks for the vid, Alioune - keep up the good work.
Are you still going to main Sagat in Super? He looks more fun now with the addition of ultra 2 and angry scar.
wow… this is some scary shit o.O
QCBx2+P iirc.
