yeah same question: what is the most punish combo with
- no meter
- one meter
- two meter
4 three meter - four meter (j.fp, c.lk, s.hk cancel f.TU dash cancel angry scar f.TU) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBLL5m1ttuU 448 DAMAGE
Honestly thought you were trolling me but I saw a guy doing it last night ^.^ Got it down now, thought it would be much harder then what it is.
Got this down too. Been struggling to FADC into anything prior to two weeks ago but after some good practice sessions, got this all. Feels good seeing improvements.
Thanks again for the information you guys! There’s no way to learn some of this stuff without having someone directly explain it to you.
What is Sagat’s Jab/Strong/Fierce Tiger Knee’s frames on block when you only hit once on your opponent?
I like…
- no meter - Stnd mp/Cr mp xx HK Tiger Knee
- one meter - Stnd/Cr.mp xx EX Tiger Uppercut
- two meter - Cr-mk xx low fireball FADC Cr mp xx Tiger Uppercut.
- Three Meter - Probably the same but end in a EX TU (getting wasteful with meter now though)
- Four Meter - Cr-mk xx low fireball FADC Cr mp xx Tiger Uppercut FADC Forward Roundhouse - Ultra
These are the one’s I’d personally use, but I’m not a fan of burning more than 2 bars, and if you do, it’s sometimes better off keeping the Ultra unless it’s going to kill them. Also remember you can AS for further damage on some of these combo’s. Although again I’m not a huge fan of AS.
Well, that’s basically what I’ve been doing (minus the three and four meter ones), so I guess I have been maximizing my punishes. I had a feeling it couldn’t be much more than what I was doing. Thanks Highland.
cst.HK xx HK Tiger Knee (or) cst.MP xx HK Tiger Knee (or) cr.MP xx HK Tiger Knee
cr.MP, cr.LP xx EX Tiger Uppercut (edit why did i think this is good? it isn’t.)
cst.HK xx HK Tiger shot xx FADC forward, cr.MP xx HK Tiger Knee (or start with cr.MP / cst.MP)
three bars is generally not worth it unless you have AS stocked, in which case: cr.MP xx HK Tiger Knee xx FADC forward, HP Tiger Uppercut
never bother with four bar punishes. if you insist on using four bars, just keep your super tucked away. it blows up a lot of safe jumps.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, learn EX Tiger Uppercut, Ultra 1. Always the most damage and almost always a better option than FADC for hit confirms and punishes.
Also while you can definitely hit Ultra 2 off of an EX fireball during a fireball war I think I’d actually recommend just keeping Ultra 2 stocked. Its like 280 damage for your Ultra + 1 bar which is pretty meh. Better to keep midscreen FBs off the table and hit 350+ if they try to mess with you imo.
a whole lot of negative (you’re getting punished if your Tiger Knee doesn’t hit on the tip)
if you meant properly spaced, i believe lord said LK is +1 and MK is 0
Could someone tell me what Sagat’s meatys are?
Technically it’s w/e you want.
Realistically you want st.lp, f+hp and cr.lk as your main meaties.
Hello everyone I’m fairly new to this game and I had a question regarding Sagat. I was playing the computer and did his uppercut when I accidentally hit my button set to focus attack. He stopped mid uppercut and started doing the focus but it doesn’t seem to land. I think I’ve stumbled onto something but I’m not doing it right. I’ve tried charging up the focus attack but it doesn’t hit, I’ve tried making the motion of his other special moves but nothing. What am I doing wrong here or is this something that can’t be played around with?
You did a Focus Attack Cancel. If you go to youtube and look up basic videos on the game, you will learn this. You can dash out of it and land certain other moves in sagat’s arsenal. Go to youtube and look up “focus attack dash cancel” and I’m sure you will find a tutorial.
What is Sagat’s frame advantage after doing TU FADC dash forward? Tiger Knee FADC dash forward?
Can’t seem to find block stun on these moves (Or any other characters).
It’s -1 I think? I think all the uppercuts are -1 , part from Fei who was 0 (I could be wrong on these figures)
I have no idea how any of the matchups go and the matchup thread is 2 fucking years old can someone who knows matchups very well help me out on XBL?
I can maybe help you out with specific match ups? which one is that your having problems with? The match up thread is very old and does need updating. I’m not a Sagat thread regular though.
How bout kara-canceling the tiger shots…
Anyone wanna share practice tips for it? I’m using the qcf+lk, hcf+p method.
I can’t pull it off in a real match and can only do it maybe 5/10 times in training mode.
how do you do a kara fireball. i always get knee or uppercut instead
you do qcf lk ~ p/k
All of them lol I get opened up so easily by everyone especially Ibuki I just feel so slow compared to everyone else I play partly due to sagat having shitty normals n slow speed and also because of my lack of practice. I don’t know much about the game and play it like it’s ST which really doesn’t work against good players.
Gat might be slow but shitty normals…no sir…no. Also Sagat doesn’t play like his ST self at all in this game. Think O.Sagat and CvS2 Sagat combined. That’s SF4 Sagat and yo uwill need to put in work with him if you want wins. ESPECIALLY vs vortex chars. The fundamentals of Sagat in other games only goes so far with AE Gat.
I noticed RF stands up to block the second hit of Akuma’s s.rh 100% of the time. Is there a tactical reason for this? Despite him being huge the second hit will whiff Sagat sometimes which should leave Akuma open for a punish of at least c.jab xx tiger shot. Does he just prefer assuring he gets additional distance?
