Several questions

  1. I know people constantly say practice practice practice to improve imput speed, but I have been playing several hours a day and am not seeing as much as I would like. My first question is how should I train to improve imput speed. Are there certain techniques I should repeat over and over?

  2. I’ve been looking online for advice on how to practice comboing. I go into trials and can’t really do most of them past 12 or 13 because i cant imput fast enough or find the right timing. is there anywhere that really breaks down how to get the rhythm and skill to combo effectively?

  3. For charge characters, the game shows a diagram of a short arrow going backwards with a long arrow going forwards directly under it. what does that mean? I suppose just a good charge character tutorial would be nice, I have been having trouble finding them

  4. For a lot of characters I have a lot of trouble crossing over(sagat)? I could use some advice on that

Thats all i have for now!

Thanks!

  1. Improve the speed of specific motions by doing those motions a lot. If dragon punches are hard to for you to do quickly then practice dragon punches a lot, you’ll get faster.

  2. Some of the trials require specific spacing or positioning to pull off and the game does a terrible job of telling you that. Look for youtube videos of someone completing the trials, that’ll give you an idea of how it’s done. As far as practicing your combos… well you just practice them. Go beat up the training dummy for an hour or more doing just that same combo over and over.

  3. Those back and forths means: Charge back then move the stick forward then back then forward again and hit your button(s). What other sort of tutorial do you need for charge characters? They technically play the same their special moves just require different inputs.

  4. Not all characters have a good cross up like Ken or Ryu with their MK. You’ll have to look up the specific characters to learn which move is their best cross up. But, again, some character don’t have a very good cross up. Guile for instance can only really use his LK for cross ups and it doesn’t give him much hitstun at all so it can be risky to use.
