Sagat's Challenge Mode

does anyone have a few more advices for TH4? i have the distance and timing down to make dan crumple, but my medium punch goes past dan after the crumple. any help?

on th4 :confused: after tiger shot u have to hold fa o just tap?:confused: can’t understand if i hold dan will block my fa if i don’t hold dan will not crumple :confused:

I’m stuck at Sagat Hard Trial 3.
Everytime I do the focus cancel after the uppercut I just ending up dashing one extra time after the cancel instead of doing the forward kick.

Anyone have any pro tips how to pull this off?

The 3 crouching low kicks just have oddly difficult timing to get them to link. You’re probably just pushing the button too quickly.

currently on th5. i did all my challenges with controller, so its possible

You have to hold FA and release the moment you flash. The timing on it is annoying :frowning:

you have to fa after the tiger shot almost immediately

TH4 is a pain in my ass too ;_;

After c.mp I do knee but he blocks it. Would that mean it’s not cancelling? or I’m not close enough for the knee to hit?

you may not be close enough. make sure your dashing after the fa.

can someone please post the exact inputs for th4? i dont think im cancelling out of the tiger shot fast enough but when i dash out of it i cant get my focus attack out or dan will block it. i want invincible tiger.

i can TU, FADC, f+HK, ultra but i can’t chain together the 3 LKs -> HP TU for the life of me jesus christ

the main problem is getting the 3rd LK in time to not get blocked

TH 4 I still can’t get it, but i’m getting closer, the distance thing helps a bit, but you still have to get the timing in the Level 2 Focus really fast, pain in the ass combo that you’ll never use in a match.

Great post aptlynamed, you just helped me out with TH3.

invincible tiger is finally mine! th4 was a pain in the ass. i wasted a few hours doing it wrong the whole time but after i realized what i needed to do it didnt take that long. th5 then took a couple minutes which made me ecstatic when the final complete screen come up. i feel the hard trials have definately improved my game.

anyone have tips on the timing of the EX TU -> Ultra? Most of the time when i pull it off, Dan is by sagat’s face… but as you all know, the opponent needs to be overhead during the “tigerrrr…” ultra intro animation… Timing tips appreciated!

So frustrating… This c.MP>Tiger knee and/or c.MP>Tiger Uppercut is owning me so hard. I’m not stuck on TH5 just because of the c.MP>EX Tiger Uppercut. Can someone please give me a solid tip for this so I can bring my success rate up? It’s not my timing, it’s my execution :frowning:

wow guys. AWESOME advice. dunno who said it 1st, but tapping the button input twice worked wonders for me. just finished Trial Hard 3 after about a night of working on it. I’m not gonna lie, I did the happy dance. Lookin’ forward to 4 and 5 now.

thx!

How many frames does the second HK of the fake kick require after pressing the first one?

So waht exactly did you change for all of us who are stil wasting time doing it wrong?

Apparently not the sarcastic entitlement. :slight_smile:

for hard trial #4, I dont know what Morphiend was doing wrong but I can share my experience of hours doing it wrong and finally getting it.

If you have dan in the corner, it is very important to have space between the two of you for a better chance of him crumpling. I would try to stand as far away as possible but still be able to connect with the first crouching medium kick. and you have to release the focus attack the instant Sagat flashes.

Also you must dash after you successfully get Dan to crumple before doing the crouching medium punch.

The final thing that I wasn’t doing properly, and I’m not sure if it was already mentioned in this thread, but after Dan crumples, and you dash forward and crouch, you have to wait to the last possible moment to throw your medium punch. I would always dash and instantly be trying to pull off a crouching punch. it either didn’t connect or i’d do a tiger uppercut. after the dash, crouch, wait just a brief moment and throw the punch and immediately do the motion for tiger knee after the punch.

I hope that helps someone!
