Against Zangief: after SPD, jump back roundhouse gets you out of the vortex (kind of) until he has ultra 2. If he greenhands (non-EX) or SPDs, he gets hit, but if he jabs, strongs or forward.roundhouses it beats you in the air, but so far it seems like a good option to me once he gets you with the SPD. It potentially gains you a really good position and worst case you eat a normal, but still get out of his vortex (the roundhouse doesn’t catch you if you don’t use a normal in the air, so if you know that he knows, you can empty jump).
Edit: Forgot to add, h.SRK, s.lk immediately then jump-in will beat lariat if he quick-rises (in case you notice he’s reversal happy!)
What’s up guys, I have always had an interest in Sakura since I bought the game, and I was playing her yesterday against a Vega.
The first thing I noticed is that whenever Vega did the launch in the air and grab thing, I did Sakura’s c.HP and it knocked him out every time. I’m a Cammy main, and I have a hard time knocking him out of the air with Cammy.
I have two questions (take note the offline players I play with are definitely not tournament players, but we do like to win and we do research on forums and such to get better)
- Is Sakura a good opponent for Vega, rather than Cammy?
- is there a better anti air that I should use/ can I follow up with anything after c.hp?
I personally don’t like Sakura vs. Vega. Vega out-footsies sakura and it can be a big pain in the ass to get in. That being said he’s kind of helpless on wakeup and you can sort of jump in on him for free, but the matchup really annoys me because I play a really footsie heavy game and you just won’t get anywhere trying to out-poke Vega.
I would guess that Cammy absolutely destroys vega though.
But hey if vega is doing random wall dives, just meet him air to air (with Cammy at least. Like you said sakura’s c. Hp works well enough). Cammy’s J. Hp or j. Mp would probably do the trick.
Sakura has a harder time than Cammy…
I hate fighting Vegas… how do you punish KKK flips?!
You can os mp dp and it will beat backdashes, and if he does the kkk flip you’ll land in front of him and you can punish.
I honestly do not understand how to do OS’s…
Whenever I try the OS I’ll get the move to come out even if they don’t backdash and stuff 
Why would you os against flips, just react and either do hp dp or c.mk depening on what flip it was.
If you os against anything it’s his backdash.
crMK for short flip and HP DP for the long flip?
I tried crMK and it didn’t work o.O
Actually it depends on the situation he’s doing flip, most of the time you can react with mp sho.
You might have to walk forward a bit for it to always hit, but it’s a habit you’ll pick up with experience.
Cammy help…NOW
I had a phobia with Rufus and Sakura is not helping either 
Im pretty sure you can punish her uppercuts with cr.mk > shoryu. focus her silly dive kicks, you can probably get alot of crumples off them.
Also when she knocks you down and they do those light dive kicks, i would quickly focus dash on wakeup to get out of there. Apart from that just keep her out and watch out for random spiral arrows (sorry i couldnt help much!)
I always seem to focus the wrong way on my wakeup, are there any visual tips to see which way shes going?
thats that hard part because its a guessing game i’ve noticed that if they do a jump lk after a knockdown it will always cross over but most dive kicks seem to look like they hit behind but they actually hit infront! gonna have to test it out in training more
