Hi Sakura players. I’ve been maining C. Viper exclusively since Street Fighter 4’s release, and I have finally decided to pick an alternate character. I’ve gone through pretty much the whole roster while trying to choose who my alt. should be, but my choice has come down to three people; Vega (claw) Akuma, and Sakura.
Anyways, I was just wondering what would make you guys choose Sakura over Vega and Akuma, because I can’t seem to choose…
btw, my alternate will only be used for beating on PSN scrubs & amateurs, so no high level play for my alt. I need suggestions that’ll make Sakura suitable against novice and intermediate level players
well u could look at why we play sakura thread, ignore the perverts reasons lol. but i play her cause i love the combos the mixups and the good feeling when u beat someone with her due to your skill you’ll know why lol. shes just a fun character. try watching some of her videos we have.
to play him right yea… i was just trying to say no one who plays him uses any skill (or i have yet to fight one who does). they all just spam air fire balls and teleport if you get close. id actually love to see an akuma who actually uses combos or actually can land an SGS for once
honestly if owning low level scrubs is all you care about with an alt then probably Vega. SO ANNOYING! Close second is Sakura because she’s rare and it sucks to get beat up by a teenage girl.
Is there anything that can connect from her c.LK? After FADC’ing forward a blocking opponent only c.LK seems to hit quick and regularly, but can also eat a DP though, so is it worth it?
hmm a EX tatsumaki connects with it and its safe on block for you so no worries… Only problem with this is if they were crouching, then you’ll just fly over their heads…oopsie :rolleyes:
a lp shouken works but you’ll be punished on block so i don’t recommend it.
a lk tatsumaki would work and you won’t have to worry bout going over their heads. If you can do it, then just connect that with the lk again into ex-tatsumaki…if you can do it lol :nunchuck:
oh i got a quick question, i didn’t feel right if i made a new thread about a simple question…
I’ve been using a controller using Sakura the whole time and was wondering if a stick will be helpful. I’m pretty decent at her just a few glitches on input once in a while.
If it helps, i already reserved a copy of blazblue and thinking of purchasing KOF XII which im pretty sure having a stick will make playing both games “easier.”
