Sagat Q&A: Ask simple questions here!

The only thing that matters is akuma , not the fireball

so basically what Alioune means is block whichever side akuma is on, same with dhalsim ultra’s. if he teleports to ur back, block against dhalsim even the fireball is BEHIND u, the computer will help u block all the fireballs as long as u block against dhalsim. same concept with akuma.

thanks that helps alot more

How do you do the ex Shyoruken to utlra? Every time I try it on Zangief they are always way to low. Someone said buffer once but at what point am i trying to input it on land or sometime in the air?

I’ve noticed something strange in practice mode, the accepted way to punish a blocked fierce headbutt from Honda is to stand block with Sagat then reversal ex low tiger shot correct? However, when I record the Honda training dummy doing the fierce headbutt and stand block, I get the reversal tiger shot but sometimes he is able to block.
Can anyone one tell what is going on here? Range shouldn’t be an issue since I’m always attempting this from the default start position. Are there multiple frames where you can get a reversal or something else I need to take note of? This is driving me crazy.

Just kara TU. Problem solved.

Do you mean Kara TU with f+Rh? Can you punish it from crouch block that way? Thanks by the way. But I still wish I knew the reason why punishing with ex tiger shot is inconsistent.

You can’t punish it from crouch block. Not with anything.

So I main Sagat and I’m using the 360 pad, my button layout is light punch/kick and heavy punch/kick, RB and RT being all 3 kicks and punches.

My question is with this set up, any time I leave the ground my opponent gets the better of me air to air. What am I doing wrong and whats the best option for this set up? (I think maybe I don’t hit fierce early enough as I’m leaving the ground).

don’t jump… And MP is a better air to air vs most characters.

Im going to start playing online again soon ive taken a 8 months break from it but im starting again this week anyone down for some games?

I’m game if you’re interested.

Just lemme know when you want to get some games in.

that’s your problem. But anyways, j.HK or j.MP is good for air to air attacks andwhatnot

Is there a thread for instruction on how to perform Sagat’s option selects?

I saw this : http://www.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=214755 :bgrin:

I need help blocking Blanka’s ultra when he’s up close or when he gets a knockdown. It seems like I get hit by quite often even when I’m blocking it. Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

If you’re close, immediately block low then high :shy:

Im down for sure I’ll add you up just let me know what time is usually good for you

How do you do jump fierce that hits far say over a fireball to kara uppercut exactly? Which kara is it? If its lk kara i can never get the uppercut to connect, does it have to be a quick cancel into the tu? By quick i mean an earlier cancel into the tu than the window you’re given with lk kara on the whole.

its hk kara
