Seiei-Videu: Yang Video Thread

those werent even meaty. a meaty palm hits with late active frames giving you more frame advantage to play with

he was just doing late timed palms slightly spaced out to hit bad uppercuts.

i suppose you could force a mix up from it if people started to back dash out of the chip. you could do fake palm dash up into an OS maybe…?

i dunno. mess around with it

If this video is to be believed, Yang’s hurtbox does not get bigger when he crouches, but while he’s at neutral? interesting.

Time for Ultra Yang replays!

This is some of my own Yang footage. Please critique me, if possible.

The last video is set to private.

Concerning the other two, what was your strategy in those matches?
Play against the computer in arcade mode to work on confirms. You had a lot of stray hits and left quite a bit of damage on the table.

In case you weren’t aware of some of these: Arm yourselves with knowledge.

Fixed it. Those stray hits were (apparently) messed up inputs. If you look at the input display its shows that I tried following up my rekkas but for some reason the game didn’t register it. As far as my strategy goes, my main goal was to get the knock down and shift the offense into my favour. Draco’s really good at keeping me out, so when I get in I have to stay in and keep him still via 50/50’s

Hi guys, need some advice on my Yang play.

  1. Push people into the corner. You missed the 3rd slash on a few occasions that would have helped with this.
  2. You can focus Buttslam.
  3. You could have won against Honda but you stranded yourself in the corner.
  4. Against Abel you threw stand RH twice and they connected both times! Play a more footsie oriented match and make Abel walk into your stand RH, stand Strong, and crouch Forward.

I’ve been hitting a lose streak online, and would like some tips with Yang. Here are some videos:

Oh ! Thanks ! I didn’t know I could focus Buttslam until you mentioned it.

I’ll try to improve my footsies.

Thanks for the advice

In case nobody checked the first page:

This is super tricky if the opponent doesn’t know the trick behind this reset. Like in the video, the followup cl.st.MP comes out as a frame trap if the opponent reacts with footsies, which can set-up command grab mixups once the opponent is too scared to press buttons.

Its Kreymore playing. Plus this shit is literally nearly 2 years old lol.

I see. Never saw it before and haven’t read about it so, I thought I’d mention it. Thank you for noting that it’s not Dieminion playing himself… I was wondering how many other characters Dieminion might have up his sleeve since the Yang in the video was on point. :smiley:

yeah that tech gets brought up like every 6 months. hero of time likes that one a lot

I think it constantly gets brought up cuz there’s always some new Yang players that come every now and again and they’re like OMGLOLWTFBBQ THAT MIXUP IS GODLIKE. It is fun to throw out on people that have never seen it and watching how they react lol.

As a newbie, that shit is new to me. Using it.
