Sagat Social/General Discussion Thread

Have to agree, I was like a kid with a porno magazine in the first 5 day’s but now it’s wearing off a little. (much like me with MVC)

The more I find out about capcom and the set up, the more I think its a total money making scam and it’s putting me off it. I feel like I got raped and I paid for it.

If ssf4 wasnt so good. I wouldnt support capcom at all.

blows how dead the forums are now. im still grinding though.

Forums are dead but the game is still alright. I can generally hop online and find an endless or some ranked if I want.

yea i agree with that.

Since SfxT this game revived in my eyes so…

Ill be spamming my shit somewhere

oh my car…

played 50 games of AE last night with my crew.
i miss AE so much, and sagat feels soooo right in 2012.

sf x tekken… such a bubble gum game.

Never thought I would see the day where sumone said AE Sagat feels right.

Of course I completely disagree.

right enough. lolol.

In AE it feels normals to execute kara anything, f.lk, tiger knee, tech throws, etc

In sf x tekken, I don’t know how to block ryu’s cross up tatsu 100% of the time.
Cross up tatsu 50/50 = hit confirm super… -_-
Wtf is with ryu in that game. God damn.
How come it feels like jumps r 100x earth gravity…
Did I said ryu’s cross up tatsu is fuckkng on another level yet?

I pick hwoarang and gief in that game, I avoid sagat cause zoning is shit besides for anti grappler.
Sagat > gief & Hugo.
Because constant frame traps, vacuum chains lol, powerful jumps and cross up, U have to play sagat more offensive heavy, which in that area will fuck ur game in AE.
Sagat is good in sf x tekken, but my opinion is AE is more of his pure form.

Sf x tekken = pop bubble gum fighting game.
AE = a man’s chess game.

Edit:
U know sf x tekken is a bugged out game. It’ll be patched and people will have to relearn all the pop game mechanics again and etc.
Fuck dat… Tired of all these fuckkng fighting games.
I wanna play normal games and sf4.
Sf4 life.

Yeah in SFxT they made Defense and zoning pretty shitty. I tried sagat, it was cool that i had more combos available. But when f-HK and Hk are getting beat out all the fucking time by jump ins, something ain’t right. So im just not gonna touch him in SFxT unless im dealing with someone using a grappler, cuz id rather my SF Sagat stay solid than suffer because of that game.

Oh im sorry. I meant like…he doesnt have obvious blind spots and artificial chains binding him because devs want him to not be top tier on purpose.

When I have moves that don’t function correctly and shit like that I’m sorry but that version of that char will NEVER be just right.

As far as move properties go like how hk and f.hk function that’s just a matter of adjusting to frame data changes.

AE Sagat is a bastardized version of the king and he always will be in my eyes. Is he solid? Sure. But he is solid for the wrong reasons.

last night, i got punk’d so bad by j.wong’s fat dirty rufus…

ft3, $20.
i did 3 trials and lost $60 lol.
i did a double salty run back cause i really wanted to do some damage to this guy. lol
no dice

holy shit, i never experience such hardcore rushdown in your face rufus.
every option i tried to gain space or counter got shut down.
I got him with 1 Kara uppercut, I never got him again.
His footsie and mix up is dangerous, he’s a OG so he got good fundamentals.
So he stays very tight range, even every whiff fierce will be punish and optioned.

I got him in a round when I low tiger shot him in mid range, and buffer U1 for a option select.
And he df+mk in return after the tiger shot block stun, and I confirm dat.

those who say jwong is over rated…
pssssh, they call him the king of chinatown for a reason…

I need to go hard, I can’t lose like this.

I find LK Kara TK better against rufus than Kara uppercut. Full screen he’ll try to Dive kick over your shots and you’ll catch him clean every time.

Obviously Focus Tech back dash for Dive kicks and Jump back Fierce. But you probably know those ones.

Playing someone of his calibre though, sometimes it’ll seem like you just can’t keep him out. I like this match up, it feels like Sagat’s strengths all come together and play out.

He knows the sagat matchup really well. He did beat mago. I saw him blow up Mike Wengs sagat in tourny in regualar AE. But Mike ran it back with ryu.

He also should have beat Leslie in their match, no Shame Bboysanstorm the guy knows the match-up like very few and is an OG to boot lol.

I’m interested in you elaborating.

I have my own personal complaints about functioning buttons but i’ve said mine before. That being said, the way you use his moves have been consistent since super. Why AE specifically?

It was pretty disgusting, how fuxking crazy good he is.
I feel like such a small fish lol.

It’s all good, I just keep playin 2012 with my wolf pack.
Sf fundamentals goes a looong way. I’ll probably play sf4 until sf5.
I just love the fight in this game.

Wow sorry for late response. Havent had internet access for like a month and a half and when I got back online I only ventured into this forum today.

So what do I mean exactly. Meh. Mostly just the nerfs that we have grown so used too. Namely TU being weak and TK being garbage. Don’t get me wrong. Gat was worse in Super for sure. Mid tier and no better. He isn’t much better in AE either though. His tier placement being high is just because other chars were nerfed. Playing him in SFxT feels so much better because his moves now have their functionality back. TU hits hard again its fucking amazing. His TK is still weak but it beats alot more moves now and the frame data is fucking gdlk. This is what I am talking about. If a move is weak and horribly unsafe unless you are perfect and the reward r being perfect is non-existent then whats the point? In SFxT a perfect lk tk puts you at PLUS FIVE ON BLOCK!!!

Do you guys have any idea how much Sagat’s match-ups would change in this game if he had that? Sakura, Dudley, Juri, Adon to name a few would all be in his favor because they can barely stop TK now in its nerfed form. If it was safer smh, he would rock them because footsie range would no longer be this huge blind spot fo him.

Thats why i like him more then in SFxT. He is a more complete character.
