A few comments on the video. First off, despite the “G3 Championship” display that pops up at first, it’s a G1 final match, as you can see from the points involved. I’m guessing that’s a bug with the replay system.
I do a lot of ‘random’ Koryukens in this video. There’s a reason for that. I’d played this guy before, and he basically just threw endless horizontal Blanka balls, especially on wakeup, so I was using the Koryuken effectively to stop him. In this game, he apparently learned from that, so the tactics I’d used against him before were no longer effective. Thus, after the first round, I moved away from those Koryukens (and, of course, he started moving back to wakeup Blanka balls to smack me).
The thing I’m most sad about for my first G1 tournament win is the finish. How could I flub my taunt? Twice? 
Must’ve been jitters.
Nice vid…i had no idea you could FA the overhead roll…good to know…and he got random ultra/super happy and you made him pay…lol
Opps wrong account.
I have a very great replay up of me owning a Cammy in G1 Championship. :bgrin:
I saw that. It was sweet. Sorry for not replying to your request last night dude. I was in the middle of a match. Plus I was signing off anyways. Maybe next time.

am i worthy of the sakio ?
I don’t know how much serious advice you’re looking for.
For whiff/punishment combos, you’ve got half of it right. The crouching heavy punch is the move you want, it does lots of stun. You were usually doing a Koryuken afterwards, though, and occasionally a Gadoken. The move you usually want to go to in those situations is the heavy Dankukyaku, it sizably outdamages both the Koryuken (even EX) and Gadoken. You had some good midair Knee of Justice use, but the heavy Danku is an important part of Dan’s game as well.
The other main thing I’d suggest working on is your normals. With the exception of jump-ins, and the aforementioned punishment combos, Dan’s heavy moves suck. They’re all incredibly slow, and most lack range too. You’ll be better off using his medium moves instead, as they come out much faster and have better range to boot. Compare Dan’s standing medium kick to his standing heavy kick, and you’ll see the difference. Dan’s sweep is probably the slowest sweep in the game, so rather than using it, try to train yourself to do a crouching medium kick into a Gadoken or EX Danku (heavy Danku won’t combo off the medium, usually).
Oh. And taunt more. I saw some Super Combos in the videos, but not a single Legendary Taunt! What’s wrong with you?
Ill add some:
Work on using focus absorbs effectively especially that first round vs Ryu. You absorbed a bunch and just ate the damage seconds later. I rarely use it unless im in close, unless your trying to absorb to prime up an ultra theres really no sense doing it from across the screen that many times in a row.
I cant stress enough the c.hp/hp>HK dankyu being dans best friend. go for cross ups a little more, you can really ruin their day. Alot of times I will cross up j mk >mp>hk danku. mp is just a little easier to link online on the cross up, every now and again c.hp/hp’s get blocked on the cross up do to lag. crossing up is also useful for landing a super. use lk danku on the ground more, you can really pressure fools with c.mk >lk danku or mp>lk danku the latter of which combo’s if you connect the mp.
well this is my FIRST DAY as dan…
I didnt even use training mode. but I wanted to ask what was the best way to punish and now I have it.
but… I was not TRYING to do EX DP… I actually suck so bad I was spamming on the dpad trying to do ultra and they just came out and when I tried to do the EX DP was when I did the EX gadoken…
Im as elite as the charachter I play!!
thanks for the help, I guess I will try doing more dan matches.
I just got a replay up tonight. Dan vs Gen. Still not used to Gen so its not very impressive, but I dispatched him rather easily, finished round 2 with a cross up super. Had I known It would qualify for a replay I would have held out for the legendary taunt finish instead of putting a quick end to it with the super.
I will check it out.
Vs Ryu

The most epic match is Dan vs. Dan when they both do the Legendary Taunt at the same time. Didn’t get to replay that though…
This may be old but here’s a decent Dan.

Here’s another same site, just back dash ex danku impresses me.
Disgustipated has put up another one of my G1 replays on Youtube. This one’s a little one-sided, but it might be worth checking out anyway. I didn’t get to taunt much, because I had to keep the pressure on.

Also, on an unrelated note, here’s a video of me put up by someone else from a G1 3rd battle. This is how not to play Dan against El Fuerte.

(well, the heavy Danku use is good, but the wakeup game is where I failed)
man I never get that. people always jab me out of it. I would love for someone to throw out an ultra.
Xiao send me a freiend request on Xbox and I will put up some of your matche against my abel nd stuff
So, if I get the gist of these videos right, two of the biggest advantages Dan has in some matches are actually his reputation, and his taunts’ ability to really piss people off.
So glad I decided to main the Saikyo-Ryu master.
Alot, of people I think dont take Dan seriously, and think the match will be easy mode when they face one (especially if they never faced one that knows what their doing). also, alot of people have no idea what Dan can really do, so they fall for alot of crap. You need to excel at mindgames, mix ups and FA, Dan has a killer cross up combo, which is also a great punisher. Dan can apply great pressure especially against characters with unreliable anti air, like fuerte, gouken, vega.
